Popis: This issue of ZDM focuses on research related to the enacted curriculum from various perspectives within the context of the US educational system. In this editorial, we describe the broad view of curriculum enactment taken in this issue, highlighting that we mean more than just how instruction plays out within a classroom. For instance, enactment can occur at a national level as educational goals are enacted into a set of national objectives or standards. Enactment can occur as goals or standards are embedded into written curriculum materials or textbooks, both in terms of teacher guides and materials for students. Enactment can occur as teachers make decisions about how to use their written curriculum materials. Finally, enactment can occur as teachers and students engage and interact with written materials during classroom instruction. We elaborate briefly on these views and then outline the structure of this ZDM issue.
