The majority of modern philosophers of science view it as a growing and
developing body of knowledge either detached from history (Popper, 1979) or
embedded in human history (Kuhn, Feyerabend, Lakatos, Toulmin and Laudan).
Educational thinkers have also stressed the processes and means of knowledge
acquisition, as a basis for the curriculum, including, most notably, Schwab (1975) and
Bruner (1960).
