Curriculum theory

Analysis task

The analysis task consists of two parts. In the first part, you analyse an article(debate) about education and/or school, and in the second part, you conduct an analysis of learning materials.

The article: Use at least three concepts from the course literature to analyse a self-selected article about education (European) and/or school (Swedish school) based on the following themes: view of knowledge, selection and governance.

The teaching material: Choose a teaching material in your upcoming teaching subject mathematics. Analyse, using at least two didactic concepts or typologies, how a subject area within the subject (for example, basic algebra in mathematics) is presented in the teaching material and which selection (selection and opt-out) characterizes the presentation.

You must also justify why you chose these particular concepts or typologies for your analysis.
