Chapters on each of the major curriculum philosophies offer descriptions of curricula that illustrate the philosophy, examine the philosophy's global assumptions and conceptual framework, describe the historical evolution of the philosophy over the past 100 years, and examine the philosophy's aims, view of children, perspective on learning, and conceptions of teaching, knowledge, and assessment. These chapters are followed by a chapter comparing them, and a final chapter examining how the philosophies influence educators during the course of their careers.
