Activity 1. In your own way, use a diagram or figure to illustrate the linear,
cyclical and dynamic models of curriculum development. (20 pts.)

Activity 2. Give a short description that makes each of the four classifications of
curriculum designs distinct from each other.

1. Which of the following dynamic models of curriculum development do you think is

best to the Philippine context ? Illustrate, explain and discuss how this model can
help develop the curriculum in our country at this pandemic time. (50 pts.)
 Walker’s Model of Curriculum Development
 Skilbeck’s Model of Curriculum Development
 Eisner’s Artistic Model of Curriculum Development
 Pawilen’s Model of Curriculum Development

There are three curriculum sources in the model. Thes e three sources
are learners, society and disciplines. These curriculum sources are based on the
model ofRalph Tyler (1949). The learner as a curriculum source is very important.

is helpful for curriculum workers in making appropriate choices in curriculum
decision-making (Print 1993).Society is also considered as a source of
curriculum. Knowledge about the society provides better understanding of the
context in which the curriculum will be implemented. Cultural values, beliefs,

attitudes, political and economic systems and the physical environment directly or
indirectly affect curriculum development because the learners are an integral part of the
society. Understanding the nature of discipline is also essential in curriculum
development. It can provide data for making decisions as to what contents should be
included in the curricula and how to organize the contents of the curriculum. As
shown in the model in Figure 12, curriculum sources are considered vital

curriculum standards.
