the hidden curriculum and educational substrate

I haven't seen much written recently about the hidden curriculum, and I'm wondering if the topic may have fallen out of favor among critical pedagogues.  I still see it as highly relevant, in fact more than ever, as business and industry interests increasingly find ways to reach their tendrils into schools.  It's a little bit subtle because we're talking about tacit learning and socialization, but I'm interested in the process of unhiding the hidden curriculum, and helping teachers to become intentional about what is taught through it.

Does this resonate with any other forum users?

Either here on the forum, or over email, I'd be very happy to hear from anyone with similar interests.

Kind regards,

Matt
