ABSTRACT Employing the research strategy ofthe descriptive case study and the techniques of the historiographer, the thesis traced the process of decision making which led to the creation of a project in support ofthe 1978 grade twelve Alberta Social Studies Curriculum. Within the context of the decision making process, the study identified the critical theorists' interest in the symbiotic relationship between ideology, society and cunicdum. The questions asked were: who makes what curricular decisions and how and why are they making them? Among the conclusions reached were that curriculum decision making was a political process closely tied to the social and political milieu. The govemwnt reacted to internal and external pressures and intewened in curriculum development. This interventionist stance was reflected in a number of areas: increased Canadian content; amplified centralization and escalating standardization. These developments resulted in loss of teacher autonomy over curriculum development and resource selection. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I owe a great debt to my advisor, Dr. Cede DePass, without ha constant positive attitude and encouragement about my work, this thesis might never have been finished However, I do not want to have to leave her contn'bution with just a sterile, academic type of salutation, for her encouragements seemed to go beyond what one would call a "duty". She gave me a gift - a belitfin my ideas, myself, that allowed me to be part of a liberating educational experience that profoundly changed my life and helped me realize that I had a right to set my fhreon the path to academia. I am also gratefid for the words of advice and encouragement that Dr. Bryant Griffith offered along the way both during my course work as well as during this project To Dr. M. Zachariah, my appreciation for adding his immense expertise to my committee. On a personal level, I wish to express my love and appreciation to my family, without their patience and encouragement this task would have faltered. Gratefully, I acknowledge the emotionaI and financial support of my parents Margaret and Bela Berci. To my brothers, Robert and Bela Berci and their familes, whose immeasurable love and belief in me sustained my efforts. To my children for giving purpose to this project. May any good that bas come fiom this effort also influence their fives. DEDICATED to my children Jason and Joey who have always been and always will be at the centre of my universe TABLE of CONTENTS Approval Page ............................................................................................................
