Abstract
With researchers' persistent efforts, current curriculum research in the mainland of China has got its independency. It deepens the previous curriculum study and inaugurates a new study pattern. Since 1980s, curriculum specialists on mainland have constructed the system of curriculum theory, redefined the essence of curriculum, expanded the field of curriculum theory and established a close relationship between theory and practice of curriculum. And great progress has been made in the intensive exploration of such issues as curriculum modernization, curriculum reform, curriculum type, methodology of curriculum research, curriculum experiment and professional development of teachers, etc. . Curriculum research on the mainland will keep on developing with self-criticism and reflection.
