Specialists in the Discipline of the Currículum in Mexico: Pioneers in the Study and Conformation on the Field
Abstract
This paper aims to reflect on the role of specialists in the field of curriculum in Mexico (from its beginnings in the 1970s to the present) from the perspective of those who consider themselves as such and those who have lived the development of the discipline. The study method for this work was qualitative, inductive, and exploratory. The inquiry technique was the in-depth interview, which was applied to four curricular specialists to obtain data on the meaning of their activity. The analysis process was divided into three phases: qualitative data reduction, descriptive analysis, and interpretation. The perspectives indicate that the field of the curriculum needs new researchers who consolidate themselves as authorities within the discipline, since a generational change cannot be glimpsed. In general terms, the results confirm that few researchers can be circumscribed within the category of curriculum specialist.
