      Good question. I’ve been seeing it globally – as that which we are told to teach by our provinces/states, largely content based. Having said that, and I touched on this in my follow-up post, Quebec’s curriculum is not only content-based but also focuses on methodology and lifelong learning. I claimed that this made it easier to subvert :)
