    Cuurriculum evaluation 

    is a method for determining the worth and effectiveness of any newly


    implemented curriculum. There are several stakeholders with interest in the results of curriculum
    evaluation that include parents, teachers, the community, administrators, and curriculum publishers.

    What Is Curriculum Evaluation?


    The purpose of curriculum evaluation is to determine whether or not the newly adopted curriculum is
    producing the intended results and meeting the objectives that it has set forth, and it is an essential component
    in the process of adopting and implementing any new curriculum in any educational setting. Another purpose
    of curriculum evaluation is to gather data that will help in identifying areas in need of improvement or change.

    Many factors can influence the evaluation of professional development and this guide poses five
    questions, that if answered by the evaluation team, can help define what should be done in an evaluation
    and what’s possible.

    1. Should the professional learning be evaluated?


    2. Will the activity result in important outcomes?
    3. Will evaluation results help inform subsequent phases of the professional learning activity and plans
    for new professional learning?

    2. What are the key elements of the professional learning that will be evaluated and what assumptions
    hold these elements together? (What are the goals and objectives? Who are the expected participants?
    What kind of professional learning will take place, and on what timeline? What resources are necessary to
    ensure that the professional learning takes place as planned and yields the intended outcomes? What
    contextual factors are likely to influence the professional learning, and how are these factors likely to
    influence the extent to which teachers apply new knowledge and skills in their classrooms?) 3. Who is
    likely to be interested in the evaluation, and what do they want to know about the professional learning?
    (teachers, school leaders, professional development providers, funders, school boards, and parents and
    community members)

    What resources are available to support the evaluation? (Knowing what evaluation resources are
    necessary and available guides choices about the evaluation’s scope and will almost certainly set some
    constraints on what can be accomplished.) 5. Who will work on the evaluation? (A viable evaluation plan
    needs to clearly identify who will work on the evaluation, their roles, and the kinds of training and
    support they will need to complete their assigned tasks.)

    Curriculum Issues
    1. The role of universal ,national,political forces/culture in curricular change
    2. Theory to practice
    3. Effective plann ing of curriculum
    4. Consider hidden curriculum
    5. Establishing standards for curriculum
    6. Establishing research and practice
    7. Establishing Integrated curriculum
    8. Establish evaluation procedure and models
    9. Need to actively engaged teachers
    10. Effective implementation of the curriculum design
    11. key individuals are not professional and researchers
    12. staff development of curriculum change
    13. chances brought about by science and technology empoerment anf Continous Professional
    Development (CPD)of teachers
