Product Description

Although the fields of chaos and complexity are important in a number of disciplines, they have not yet been influential in education. This book remedies this dilemma by gathering essays by authors from around the world who have studied and applied chaos and complexity theories to their teaching. Rich in its material, recursive in its interweaving of themes, conversational in its relationships, and rigorous in its analysis, the book is essential reading for undergraduates, graduate students, and professionals who deal with these important topics.

A working group of education theorists explore chaos and complexity--two different theories, they say--as perspectives of New Science and postmodern inquiry that may lead to significant changes in the understanding of and approach to curriculum studies. They cover historical streams; chaos and complexity theories and their implications; systems and communications; and aesthetics, culture, and learning.
