INTRODUCTION TO CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT

1.0 INTRODUCTION TO CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT

Curriculum is a plan of Education. This plan transforms ideas into curriculum which is related to life, needs, aspirations and problems of people. In this manner, the curriculum becomes a powerful and dynamic instrument of social, economic and cultural transformation of the society.

1.1 Definition and Meaning of Curriculum

By curriculum, Bishop (1985) is the sum total of all the experiences a pupil undergoes. There are many meanings attached to the word “curriculum” sometimes it is referred to as “syllabus or list of subjects or course of study or topics or terms of knowledge to be covered or content or organization of teaching and learning or method or time table etc. Curriculum is much wider than syllabus, where a syllabus is only part of the total curriculum. So, curriculum is concerned not so much with prescribing the knowledge to be acquired as with the area of learning experiences to be organized by teachers, both within and outside the school to enable pupils to adopt a positive attitude to learning, but also to acquire and apply knowledge and skills to develop pupils’ tastes and a balanced sense of values.

Education on the other hand is life process to provide the pupil with knowledge, desirable attitudes and skills. Hilda Taba (1962) sees education as a process of preservation and transmission of cultural heritage. Education is life-long and is a continuous process.

1.2.0 Course Objectives

The course aims at equipping the Bachelor of Education Degree students with basic knowledge, describe attitudes and practical professional skills. Specifically, students should be able to do the following:
1.2.1 Explain common concepts, principles and terms as applied in the course of curriculum development.
1.2.2 Assess the role of various agencies, institutions, and personnel involved in curriculum development process.
