Lawrence Stenhouse

Lawrence Stenhouse was a British educator and researcher known for his work in teacher education and curriculum development. He emphasized the importance of involving teachers actively in designing what they teach, believing that effective learning happens when teachers reflect on their practice and adapt content to their students' needs. Stenhouse's ideas shifted towards viewing teaching as an ongoing, practical process rather than merely applying fixed curricula. His approach encourages continuous professional development and collaborative learning among educators, promoting adaptable, student-centered education systems that foster critical thinking and ongoing improvement.
