Abstract

This last chapter of the book focuses on the various elements of a new model of curriculum, and the relations between them. A curriculum is an intended programme of learning and has three components: a set of curriculum standards which articulate the intended student achievements (what they know, what they can do and what dispositions they have acquired) at set points of time (these are the learning objects); a set of pedagogic standards (these are teaching or learning approaches); and a set of summative assessment or evaluation standards.
