Lawrence Stenhouse  

Definition

  • The conceptualization of “curriculum as a means to an end” underlying current educational practices including the use of standards and authentic assessment can be traced to the work and theorizing of Lawrence Stenhouse (19261982). Stenhouse, a British educational theorist, framed curriculum as hypothesis and called on teachers to use an inquiry approach to develop a rigorous curriculum that promoted higher-order thinking skills and honored and attended to cultural diversity.
