ABOUT THE BOOK
This
book theorizes shadow education as a new component of curriculum, expanding the
concept of curriculum to include this type of learning. Curriculum scholars and
theorists have largely disregarded shadow education as a valid topic of
scholarly attention despite its massive growth worldwide. But shadow education
has become a global phenomenon with ever-increasing numbers of student
participants; it complements school-based curricula, in many cases going
beyond. Thus, Jung and Kim argue that shadow education requires rigorous
analysis by curriculum studies scholars. This volume analyzes the state and
importance of shadow education in countries around the world: its
representative forms and industries (private tutoring institutes, home-visit
private tutoring, Internet-based private tutoring, subscribed learning
programs, after-school programs), its characteristic forms in terms of
curriculum, and its roles in student learning. It also explores various
features of shadow education based on an eight-year ethnographic study in South
Korea.
