The Fifth Annual Multicultural Conference at the University of Southern Indiana: February 27, 2010 will investigate the factors that both enhance and inhibit the development of transformative curriculum. The following strands are proposed:
1. Local and “private space” voices in the development of curricular content.
2. Self-critique and the language of “at-risk” and “achievement gap”.
3. Curriculum Design Models: What is appropriate for the Local Education Agency?
a. Subject/disciplines Design
b. Interdisciplinary/broad fields Design
c. Student/Child-centered Design
d. Core Curriculum Design
e. Integrated Designs
f. Process Designs
g. Humanistic Designs
4. Exemplars of Transformative Curricula.

Each strand will help participants engage with the process of curricular design and begin to recognize their responsibility to develop innovative programs, courses, units, and lessons.
