[xmca] RE: Highly Formalized Curricula

["David H Kirshner" <dkirsh@lsu.edu>]

Thanks, Peter. 
I need to clarify that what I'm looking for is a highly scripted
curriculum package--a particular program to teach some content area to
kids in a certain grade-level range.

David, I've studied several such school (see attachments). The one
labeled Acquiescence is about as tight a curriculum as you'll ever see,
and the district is http://portal.fultonschools.org/Pages/default.aspx.
As I understand it, they backed off such a "tightly held" approach after
my study, though, and now I see it's an all-charter district, whatever
that means. The Praxis article took place in
http://www.gwinnett.k12.ga.us/gcps-mainweb01.nsf which is still pretty
curriculum-and-test driven, and proud of it.

Hope they are of some use,Peter

Does anyone know of a highly formalized curriculum, one that comes with
manuals and detailed protocols for administration, preferably not
special ed? 
Probably this is not of general interest, so best to reply offline--
dkirsh@lsu.edu Thanks. 
David
