1N THE last issue of the REVIEW devoted to the subject of curriculum (1), studies utilizing a historical approach were included under titles dealing with some specialized phase of curriculum and curriculum planning.

Harap (33) reviewed trends in curriculum practices and planning procedures. He noted emphasis upon fundamental and useful learning, learning to work and live together, and a continuous demand for artistic and musical training for children. A continuing trend in the fusion of related subjects with core emphasis in the junior and senior high school was indicated. Leaders in curriculum development were reported as concluding that the individual school is the most effective instrument for curriculum change. Caswell and Bellack (18) also reported curriculum developments of recent years. They identified four areas that have become crucial in connection with curriculum development: (a) modern construction of the fundamentals of education, (b) differentiation of the role of the educator from that of the lay citizen in curriculum change, (c) assurance of quality of teaching and learning, and (d) the preservation of freedom of teaching and learning. Russell and Parker (56) reviewed some of the conditions that have influenced curriculum development over the years and discussed various guides to research for teachers. They concluded with eight suggestions for implementing research knowledge. Koopman (41) identified trends toward more mature cooperation in curriculum development by all persons concerned. Brauer (13) investigated trends in state legislation affecting the curriculum of the public
