Reading
Curriculum is the path on which the teacher will guide their students over the course. So
it is very important to have a sound curriculum. The word curriculum has roots in Latin. It
originally meant “racing chariot” and came from the verb currere, “to run”. The way we
understand and theorize about curriculum nowadays has altered significantly over the years.
Today, the most simple definition of the word “curriculum” is the subjects comprising a course
of study at schools, universities or colleges (UNESCO,2013).
What are the models of Curriculum Development?
There are two types of current curriculum models both of them are equally important when
designing curriculums :
1. Product Model – Here acquiring a better grade is of the prime objective
2. Process Model – Here the process of imparting the knowledge is considered important.
What is Curriculum Planning?
This involves the overall framework on which the course is planned. The student can plan the
course by incorporating the various teaching methods like daily course plan, assignments, tests
etc. The end result of student achieving a grade and also imparting knowledge is also taken into
consideration.
Institutional requirement and frameworks are the starting points for designing the curriculum.
Also, updating the curriculum as per the latest trends and developments is of foremost
importance.
The six components of effective teaching to be incorporated in the design are:
 To demonstrate knowledge of the content
 To demonstrate the knowledge of students
