Building on the themes discussed in this unit, reflect on the following notion based on your own personal perspective. Draw on your own experience and knowledge to expand upon your thoughts.
Relative to your milieu, recall and identify at least one but no more than three curricular issues. Describe the issue(s) and why it is (they are) of concern. The term milieu comes from the work of Joseph Schwab (1983); the term refers to the social environment where education takes places. Some scholars refer to this as the space and place of learning like the classroom or school itself.
Think about the following as you prepare your post:
- What is the specific curricular issue(s)?
- Who does it affect in your milieu? If it affects more than one person or group, please be specific.
- Identify possible reasons for the issue(s).
- Upon reflection, recommend ways to solve this (these) issue(s).
