Abstract
LSU’s Department of Curriculum and Instruction is a marriage between two educational approaches or paradigms reflected in the labels, curriculum and instruction. Instruction reflects technologies of education, material, or theoretical technologies that derive practices of teaching instrumentally through a logic of implication. Curriculum reflects the spontaneity and immediacy of human relationship; theory serves curriculum as it enhances and promotes the openness of student and teacher to creative exploration of self, other, and content. This chapter is an account of my meanderings within the margins of these two educational frames.
