Processes of Secondary Curriculum Innovation in Kenya.
Lillis, Kevin M.
Comparative Education Review, v29 n1 p80-96 Feb 1985
Discusses problems associated with reform of secondary school curricula in Kenya in the period immediately after independence. Follows the course of two innovations--School Mathematics of East Africa (SMEA) and the Africanization of the literature curriculum--and discusses various reasons for their failure and for Kenya's continued dependence on Western curricular forms.
