This edited book continues the discussion on curriculum, which began in 2017 with the authors' previous work - the first book on Curriculum Studies in Finnish. The articles are divided into four thematic sets, the common denominator of which is the concern about the drifting of the comprehensive democratic German and Nordic Bildung/Didactic curriculum tradition into the narrower, competence and skills driven Anglo-American education and curriculum, shaped by the paradoxical alliance of assumedly apolitical instrumental learning theories and neoliberal policy measures.

This report analyses the progress made with the new curriculum since 2016, and offers suggestions on the actions Wales should take to ready the system for further development and implementation. The analysis looks at the four pillars of implementation -curriculum policy design, stakeholders' engagement, policy context and implementation strategy- and builds upon the literature and experiences of OECD countries to provide tailored advice to Wales.

Schools are constantly under pressure to keep up with the pace of changes in society. In parallel, societal demands for what schools should teach are also constantly changing; often driven by political agendas, ideologies, or parental pressures, to add global competency, digital literacy, data literacy, environmental literacy, media literacy, social-emotional skills, etc. This "curriculum expansion" puts pressure on policy makers and schools to add new contents to already crowded curriculum.

The purpose of the Curriculum Analysis Project in the Social Sciences was the development of materials to help faculty teaching introductory courses in microeconomics, psychology, and sociology in colleges and universities incorporate into their course content and teaching practices new and existing knowledge about women and gender-specific knowledge about men. The materials have been organized into 2 sets of guidelines. The first set relates to curriculum content. The second relates to classroom interaction patterns. The 2 sets of guidelines have been designed to make the scholarship in this area easily accessible in a form that can be integrated throughout the introductory course. In addition, these materials may also serve as a resource guide for other courses in the 3 disciplines. Though the guidelines have been designed primarily for use by individual faculty, their use within departments, divisions, or entire colleges could have a profound effect upon the total curriculum. The report includes the publication titled "Guidelines for Introductory Psychology" with Nancy Russo and Natalie Malovich. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2004 APA, all rights reserved).

The research described in this book searches for the answers on how learners learn in todays open and networked learning environments and how learners, educators, institutions, and researchers can best support this process. There is sufficient data available on virtual learning environments, provided by learning analytics, on student and teacher behaviour and performance, but there is no common practice among teachers in higher education for using this data to improve the learning and teaching process. Learning analytics and data may inform and improve open and online learning from the point of view of teacher and learner awareness about their behaviour and their learning and teaching methods. The idea of describing learning analytics as a metacognitive tool, suggesting a development of metacognitive decision-making skills in teacher education, and focusing on learning design in higher education by using data from learning analytics served as the main focus of this research. The aim of the research was to create the model of application of learning analytics method as a metacognitive tool to enhance student success. The aim of the research was reached through theoretical and empirical objectives, namely: describing the learning analytics method as a metacognitive tool revealing teacher metacognitive practices in application of learning analytics in teaching and learning, as well as learning design and creating the model of application of learning analytics as a metacognitive tool to enhance student success. This research study is the result of the research project "Open Online Learning for Digital and Networked Society (3.3-LMT-K-712-01-0189)".
