Curriculum Theory as Metaphor.

Kliebard, Herbert M.

Theory into Practice, v21 n1 p11-17 Win 1982

A curriculum theory begins in the transference of meaning from the familiar and the comprehensible to the abstract and perplexing problems arising from the actual teaching situation. These metaphors that evolve into theories serve to direct research by creating a symbolic language. (JN)
