Introducing Critical Theory in the High School Curriculum

Higher education institutions, especially those specializing in liberal arts, have recently experienced a revolution in the way of building and analyzing culture and society. The phased introduction of critique theory provides a new framework for understanding cultural properties.

The difference between critical theory and other forms of theory is that it is "seeking the release of humanity". (James)

Likewise, it is difficult to understand that the important role of curriculum theory is to break away from the normative meaning - criticism itself is not the end in itself. In my country, the government has made major changes to the curriculum of the school - I am anxious that the sound of curriculum theory sounds very small. A glimpse of the curriculum's history revealed that important targets and normative targets are largely divided. For example, people modeling models of 'better' courses rarely participate in critical analysis, so they may be forced to consider their assumptions. They think that no one seriously agrees with their prescription, regardless of whether they emphasize the results, goals, abilities, or functional skills.

Unfortunately, critical thinking is not part of most high school or secondary education curriculum. Introducing critical thinking early in life helps minimize many prejudices that plague us every day. Paul, Binker, Adamson, and Martin (1989) are the best. "Critical thinking is the art of thinking about your thinking and you are thinking about making your thoughts better," This is something that we all consider. "
