This revision of "Shaping the College Curriculum" provides an updated resource for individuals and groups whose work includes planning, designing, delivering, evaluating, and studying curricula in higher education. The academic plan concept continues to provide the framework for this revised edition, but the text also reflects substantial refinements and extensions of the understanding of postsecondary curricula since the first edition. This revised edition addresses the concerns of faculty members, administrators, and researchers who consider learning factors like social and cultural background, institutional context, different learning arrangements, course design, and change promotion and management.
