THE "NEW" SOCIAL STUDIES AND TEACHER EDUCATION

Résumé

"Unless we know where we are going, there is not much comfort in being assured that we are on our way and travelling fast. The result is likely to be but seeming.'" These words of warning, uttered nearly fifty years ago by Boyd Bode in the midst of the great educational revolution in which he took part, seem to me to be equally appropriate for all of us who are involved in the second great educational revolution of the twentieth century. In particular, when I work through the literature of the "new" social studies, it sometimes seems to me that we are just "travelling fast" and have no idea where we are going.
