In her book New Pillars of Modern Teaching, Gayle Allen suggests that curriculum will shift to curation. According to Allen, the transition from Curriculum to Curation requires us to embrace the abundance of information that surrounds us and help students use tools to organize, store, and tag information for use in learning. Scanning, Sense Making, and Sharing are highlighted as the 3S's of great curation. (Source.)
