N2  - What educational purposes should the school seek to attain, and what educational experiences can be provided that are likely to achieve these purposes? [In this book, the author] develops a rationale for studying them, and suggests procedures for formulating answers and evaluating programs of study. [In the book, he] outlines one way of viewing an instructional program as a functioning instrument of education. The four sections of the book deal with ways of formulating, organizing, and evaluating the educational objectives that have been chosen for the curriculum. [He also] emphasizes the fact that curriculum planning is a continuous cyclical process, involving constand replanning, redevelopment, and reappraisal. Substitution of such an integrated view of an instructional program for hit-or-miss judgment as the basis for curriculum development cannot but result in an increasingly effective curriculum.-Back cover.
