Brenda Smith Myles is presenting on The Hidden Curriculum

The Hidden Curriculum
May 11, 2022 at 6:30 pm via Zoom

The Hidden Curriculum refers to the set of rules or guidelines that are often not directly taught but are assumed to be known (Garrett, 1984; Hemmings, 2000; Jackson, 1968; Kanpur, 1989). This curriculum contains items that impact social interactions, school performance, and sometimes health and well-being.
