I work in the fields of early childhood education and curriculum studies, advancing democratic curriculum leadership.
My research consists of three main lines of inquiry. The first line of inquiry conceptualizes and articulates democratic alternatives to the longstanding and dominant technical rational approach to curriculum development and leadership. The second elucidates the approaches to curriculum problem-solving and the ethical commitments of democratically inspired teachers of young children. The third examines Professional Development as a means for cultivating teachers’ capabilities to function as democratic curriculum leaders.
