"Man: A Course of Study consists of books, films, posters, records, games and other classroom materials. More importantly, it consists of a set of assumptions about man." The course consists of films, booklets (replacing a traditional, authoritative texbook), and more. The films are available for purchase, and the booklets and teachers guides are available below for free. For information about how these materials were developed, and the theory behind them, please visit the research page. |
The curriculum consists of more than 60 lessons, grouped into 6 sections. These materials were created by the Education Development Center, a global nonprofit which has permitted them to be freely distributed for non-commercial purposes.
