- Ralph W. Tyler , Basic Principles of Curriculum and Instruction ( Chicago : University of Chicago Press , 1971 ).
- Traditional in this sense means a common structure of learning in the classroom. All children were taught the same things and all children were taught at the same rate. This learning earned the label of “ structured-curriculum. ”

- Note: To use primary or “ important ” objectives of the new program to gain comparative data would probably yield useless information since these objectives are likely to be specific or unique to the new program. This becomes more likely as the new program is defined as “alternative” or is in some other way alternative.
