Ralph W. Tyler  

Definition

  • Ralph W. Tyler (19021994) was described in a 1977 issue of the Phi Delta Kappan as “Mr. Fix-it,” a moniker that is surprisingly insightful but also somewhat amusing as a way to depict the stoic statesman who many consider one of the defining figures for the field of curriculum studies and one of the more important educators of the 20th century. [Source: Encyclopedia of Curriculum Studies; Tyler, Ralph W.]
