OverviewThe introduction of Outcomes-based Education (OBE) is the most controversial reform in the history of South African education. It goes right to the heart of the ongoing process of transforming this country into a democracy and shedding the legacy of apartheid. Changing Curriculum is a critical analysis of OBE, its potential to succeed and its inherent implications for the education system. It fills that vital space lying between the conception of the system and its implementation. Key Features: Provides critical and wide-ranging analyses of OBE. Combines theoretical work and field research. Contextualises the South African debate in terms of broader intellectual movements in education. Includes input by teachers, lecturers, government officials, curriculum theorists and policymakers. It constructs a much-needed dialogue between various players in the education field. Changing Curriculum is the first in-depth scholarly work on OBE in South Africa, tracing the consequences of OBE for teaching and learning in different educational contexts.
