Stakeholders
Who are they? Why are they important? How do you identify them? How do you involve them? What should be their
roles/responsibilities? What are the consequences
for non-involvement?
![Page 13: CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT An Overview July 23, 2012](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813659550346895d9de28a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

TYLER’S CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT MODEL
Based on his book, Basic Principles of Curriculum and Instruction)
![Page 17: CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT An Overview July 23, 2012](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813659550346895d9de28a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The Tyler Model
The nature & structure of knowledge
The needs of the society
The needs of the learner

Fundamental Questions in Developing Curriculum
1.What educational purposes should the school seek to attain?
![Page 19: CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT An Overview July 23, 2012](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813659550346895d9de28a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Fundamental Questions in Developing Curriculum
2.What educational experiences can be provided that are likely to attain these purposes?
![Page 20: CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT An Overview July 23, 2012](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813659550346895d9de28a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Fundamental Questions in Developing Curriculum
3.How can these educational experiences be effectively organized?

Fundamental Questions in Developing Curriculum
4.How can we determine whether and to what extent these purposes are being attained?

Hilda Taba’s Model
An inductive model with five major steps
![Page 25: CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT An Overview July 23, 2012](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813659550346895d9de28a/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Taba believed that those who teach the curriculum should be the ones to develop it.
The model uses a grass- roots approach
![Page 26: CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT An Overview July 23, 2012](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813659550346895d9de28a/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Steps—Taba’s Model1. Teacher prepares pilot teaching
unitsa. Diagnosis of needsb. Formation of objectivesc. Selection of contentd. Organization of content e. Selection of learning experiencesf. Organization of learning experiencesg. Evaluation
![Page 27: CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT An Overview July 23, 2012](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813659550346895d9de28a/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
2. Trying out of units (teaching)3. Revising and consolidating4. Developing curriculum guides5. Installing and disseminating
new units—in-service training

D. CURRICULUM DESIGNS
Design: Arrangement of the parts of the curriculum
![Page 29: CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT An Overview July 23, 2012](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813659550346895d9de28a/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Four Components of a Design
ObjectivesContentMethodsEvaluation
![Page 30: CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT An Overview July 23, 2012](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813659550346895d9de28a/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Two Organizational DimensionsHorizontal
–Scope—the “what” of the content or the breadth of the curriculum—concepts included in the curriculum
– Integration—relationship of topics to each other, including topics in other subject areas
![Page 31: CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT An Overview July 23, 2012](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813659550346895d9de28a/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Vertical–Sequence—the “when” of the content, the order in which concepts are arranged and taught; several ways of doing it: Simple to complex Familiar to unfamiliar Concrete to abstract Geographically near to far Chronological Part to whole Whole to part
![Page 32: CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT An Overview July 23, 2012](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813659550346895d9de28a/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Vertical
–Continuity—planned repetitions of the content at successive levels; Jerome Bruner’s idea of “spiral curriculum”
![Page 33: CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT An Overview July 23, 2012](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813659550346895d9de28a/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Other Design Terms
Articulation—connecting elements of horizontal and vertical aspects
Balance—The weight given to different content areas
Relevance—For immediate or remote use
![Page 34: CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT An Overview July 23, 2012](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813659550346895d9de28a/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Three Types of Designs
Subject Centered DesignStudent Centered DesignSociety/Problem Centered
Design
![Page 35: CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT An Overview July 23, 2012](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813659550346895d9de28a/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Subject Centered Designs Separate Subject Design
– Curriculum is organized into various subject areas
– Most popular Convenient to prepare materials and
teach Familiar for teachers and parents Assessment is easier
– Disadvantage is in segmentation or separation of subjects
![Page 36: CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT An Overview July 23, 2012](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813659550346895d9de28a/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Broad-fields Design– Also called interdisciplinary design– Variation of subject-centered to correct
fragmentation– Integrate content that fit logically
Social science—geography, history, economics, etc.
General science—biology, chemistry, physics
Language arts—grammar, literature, spelling, composition
– Becoming more popular– Disadvantage of superficial depth
![Page 37: CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT An Overview July 23, 2012](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813659550346895d9de28a/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Correlation Design– Midpoint between separate subject
design and broad-fields designs– Combines two or more subjects
such as English literature and history; science and math
– Identities of both are retained– Very few are using today
Difficult for scheduling Rare to find experts in both areas at
the same time
![Page 38: CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT An Overview July 23, 2012](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813659550346895d9de28a/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Fusion Design–Combines two subject areas without retaining their identities
–More recent trend–Examples—biophysics, genetic engineering
![Page 39: CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT An Overview July 23, 2012](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813659550346895d9de28a/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Student-centered Designs
Child-centered–Mostly found in elementary levels
– Integration through units of lessons—thematic instruction
![Page 40: CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT An Overview July 23, 2012](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813659550346895d9de28a/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Humanistic Designs– Building blocks of curriculum—list
of characteristics Accepting self, others, & nature Possess spontaneity, simplicity Openness to different experiences
Possession of empathy Developing decision making
![Page 41: CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT An Overview July 23, 2012](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813659550346895d9de28a/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Humanistic Designs– Examples of schools: Waldorf,
Sudbury– Adventist schools are also
designed primarily for character development
![Page 42: CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT An Overview July 23, 2012](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813659550346895d9de28a/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Core Curriculum Designs–Required of all students–Emphasis on social social needs
–Mainly used in middle school and high school levels
![Page 43: CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT An Overview July 23, 2012](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813659550346895d9de28a/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Society/Problem Centered Design
Activities or experience curriculum– Emphasizes social skills– Involves students directly in solving
problems in society Needs of Society Curriculum
– Emphasizes vocational and career training
– Instruction in the school caters for adult world of work
![Page 44: CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT An Overview July 23, 2012](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813659550346895d9de28a/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
