24 Curriculum Development: Theory and Practice Hilda Taba, 1962...schools function on behalf of the culture in which they exist. The school is created by a society for the purpose of reproducing in the learner the knowledge, attitudes, values, and techniques that have cultural relevancy or currency.[ --- ]...of the many educative agencies of society, the school is the one which specializes in inducting youth into the culture and is thus responsible for the continuity of that culture. (Taba, 1962,11)...Koolid toimivad selle kultuuri huvides, milles nad eksisteerivad. Koolid on loodud ühiskonna poolt eesmärgiga kanda õppijas edasi neid teadmisi, suhtumisi, väärtusi ja oskusi, millel on kultuuriline tähtsus või väärtus. [ --- ]...just kool on see paljudest ühiskonna haridusasutustest, mille ülesanne on juhtida noor kultuuri juurde ning seega kanda vastutust selle kultuuri säilimise eest. 17
