learning opportunities for a particular population of
learners.

• A Curriculum guide is a written curriculum.

executing, and evaluating learning experiences on
the basis of the needs, abilities and interests of the
learners and the nature of the society or
community.
Curriculum Laboratory

• Curriculum laboratory is a place or workshop where


curriculum materials are gathered or used by teachers or
learners of curriculum.
• Resource Unit is a collection or suggested learning
activities and materials organized around a given topic or
area which a teacher might utilize in planning,
developing, and evaluating a learning unit.
Instruction

• Instruction is the purposeful direction of the learning


process and is one of the major teacher class activities
(along with planning and management). Professional
educators have developed a variety of models of
instruction, each designed to produce classroom learning.
Instruction

information processing, personal development, and social
interaction that summarize the vast majority of
instructional methods.
PROGRAM OF STUDY

• Program of study means a curriculum of two or more


courses that is intended or understood to lead to a
degree, diploma, or certificate. It may include all or some
of the courses required for completion of a degree
program.
PROGAM OF STUDY

• Program of study or "plan of study" means planning a


sequence of academic, career and technical, or other
elective courses that (i) incorporate secondary education
and postsecondary education elements; (ii) include
coherent and rigorous content aligned with challenging
academic standards and relevant career and technical

higher degree at the postsecondary level.
Field Work

• Field work is the process of observing and collecting data


about people, cultures, and natural environments. Field
work is conducted in the wild of our everyday
surroundings rather than in the semi-controlled
environments of a lab or classroom.
Field Work

• Fieldwork provides an 'unparalleled opportunity' to


study the real world;
• Student perceptions of field work tend to be
overwhelmingly positive;
• Fieldwork provides the opportunity to reinforce
classroom-based learning; and
• It increases students' knowledge, skills and subject
understanding.
Field Work

• Field studies require integration of content knowledge,


observation and interpretation, analysis, experiment and
theory and all their representations (e.g. Ernst, 2006). All
lines of evidence need to come together to form a
coherent, internally consistent interpretation.
• Practices that are emphasized in the field instruction
such as question-asking, observation, representation, and
communication
Course

• A course usually covers an individual subject. Courses


generally have a fixed program of sessions every week
during the term, called lessons or classes. Students may
receive a grade and academic credit after completion of
the course.
PURPOSE OF
CURRICULUM STUDY
Purpose of Curriculum Study

• At a national level, the purpose of a curriculum is to set


out an entitlement for all pupils to the knowledge and
learning that our society determines is the most powerful
and important for a well-rounded education.
Purpose of Curriculum Study

• In order to understand the role of teachers and classroom


instructors in curriculum design by looking at the
differences between the National Curriculum and the
curriculum at a school and classroom level more closely.
Purpose of Curriculum Study

• To redesign a more direct and comprehensive roadmap


for quality learning.
• Since curriculum is central to the goal of ensuring the
knowledge that is gained by learners is useful and
powerful during instruction, thus, teachers have to do
innovating and enacting the curriculum.Everyone
must be proactive in the implementation of the
curriculum through innovative and contextualized
application to the grassroots.
