This passage seems to be from a conspiracist perspective

"For instance, it is very interesting that members of Skull and Bones in the United States have played a preponderant part as the historical designers who chose to engineer a German-Prussian pegagogy and school organization. They wanted a U.S. school experience from the start based on purposive mass behavior modification, social engineering, and centralized curricula system (based on curricula 'castes' decided by previous socioeconomic status instead of ability) instead of assumptions of individualized discernment, learning and congnitive equality."

Thanks

Not only is it a conspiracy theory, it is irrelevant. It discusses overt curriculum design, not the hidden curriculum. I removed it.Cherlin 22:28, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Unsuitable entry

Below the "Also See" section...

"Also, hidden curriculum ruins the lives of many, according to the National Association for Recovering Public School Students (NARPSS). Statistics show that students subjected to a hidden curriculum are 60% more likely to fail out of school by grade 8."

Not only was this placed outside of a clearly defined section, the tone and style is not suitable for an encyclopedia. The statement is also unsourced and NPOV. It has been deleted. King of Corsairs 00:55, 8 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

So Marxist-based schooling has no hidden curriculum?

John Dewey and his followers have been overhauling American schools by now for around a century by now. Now, does anybody wonder if the new and improved anti-Capitalist, pro-diversity, group learning, student-centered schools have got a hidden curriculum? When you have an institution that officially claims to teach kids math and history but quite openly declares its allegiance to the teaching of sustainability, equality, democracy, social justice and other such topics and develops its teaching program based on that, is that a "hidden curriculum"? Or maybe it's a blatantly open curriculum, huh? 76.24.104.52 (talk) 01:47, 28 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

New Section/ Sub-section Idea

I would like to add a new sub-section to this article focusing on how heteronormativity plays a role in schools through the hidden curriculum. I am working on this through the Wiki Education project. I would be open to anyones thoughts or suggestions on references!

In relation to Windows 95 Operating system including "games"

Discussed elsewhere (https://www.thescienceexplorer.com/how-microsoft-tricked-its-users-through-games-678), this page mainly discusses Hidden Curriculum in the context of formal educational systems and the negative impacts. However it might be appropriate to connect this topic to sources of positive impacts of hidden curriculum, such as the one discussing how software included standard in operating systems taught users to use a mouse without explicitly doing so etc.

It might also be useful to bring video game tutorial design into the conversation such as Super Mario Bros level 1-1 147.56.69.45 (talk) 19:53, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
