ABSTRACT

Addressing the challenge described above constitutes the 40-year ongoing project that is the fascinating imaginative realm of William E. Doll, Jr. In the epigraph are several of the key concepts that structure that important project: developmentalism, curriculum, dynamism, emergence, and transformation. “Non-linear” communicates Doll’s rejection of earlier and specifically Tylerian sequenced curriculum design. Note that it has been his experience of teaching that has provided the provocation for Bill Doll’s ingenuous scholarship.2
