Abstract

MORGADO, José Carlos. CURRICULUM AND COMPARED EDUCATION: PERSPECTIVES AND CHALLENGES. Revista Teias [online]. 2017, vol.18, n.50, pp.182-192.  Epub Dec 26, 2019. ISSN 1982-0305.  https://doi.org/10.12957/teias.2017.30450.

The relation between curriculum and compared education is analyzed in this article, stemming from the notion that curriculum, as a formative project and a shared construction of knowledges should be configured in order to ensure the development of autonomous, morally and intellectually well-formed individuals, capable of learning continuously throughout their lives and of assuming an active role in a rapidly and ever changing society. We seek to inquire to what extent compared education contributes to curriculum development in higher education being structured around broader and more current referents, originated both nationally and internationally. The analysis led to the understanding that certain pragmatic and market based tendencies which have conformed the curriculum field in recent years and which interfere with the purposes and processes of compared education, must be diluted.

Keywords : Curriculum; Compared education; Higher Education.
