learning experiences of students and guiding the teaching methodologies of educators.
Crafting a curriculum involves a systematic and deliberate approach that takes into
account various factors, including educational objectives, student demographics, and
societal needs. The process of crafting a curriculum is a multifaceted endeavour that
requires careful consideration, collaboration, and a forward-thinking approach. This
report delves into the key components involved in designing an effective curriculum,
emphasizing the importance of alignment with educational goals, learner needs, and
contemporary pedagogical trends. By examining the principles of curriculum
development, assessment strategies, and the integration of technology

specific subject or course.
a. Subject Design
b. Subject Centered Design
c. Discipline Design
d. Problem Centered Design
The objectives or intended learning outcomes are the reasons for the undertaking
the learning lesson from the student’s point of view. As a curriculum designer,
the beginning of the learning journey is the learning outcomes to be achieved.
The content of the lesson or the unit is the topics or subject matter that will be
covered. In selecting content, you should bear in mind the ff. principles:
a.) Subject matter should be relevant to the outcomes of the curriculum. An
effective curriculum is purposive,
clearly focused on the planned learning outcomes.
b.) Subject matter should be appropriate to the level of the lesson or unit. An
effective curriculum is progressive, leading students towards building on previous
lessons. Contents which are too basic or too advanced for the development levels
of learners make students either bored or baffled and affect their motivation to
learn.
c.) Subject matter should be up to date and , if possible, should reflect current
knowledge and concepts.
III. References
It tells where the content or subject matter has been taken. The reference maybe a
book, a module, or any publication. It must bear the author of the material and if
possible the publications.
These are the activities where the learners derive experiences. The teaching-
learning methods should allow cooperation, competition as well as individualism or
independent learning among the students.
Example:
Cooperative learning activities, allow students to work together. Students are guided to
learn on their own to find solutions to their problems.
Competitive activities, where students will test their competencies against another in a
healthy manner allow learners to perform to their maximum. The use of various delivery
modes to provide learning experiences is recommend.
V. Assessment/ Evaluation
Learning occurs most effectively when students receive feedback. The process by
which this information is generated is assessment. It has three main forms:
a.) Self-assessment, through which a student learns to monitor and evaluate their own
learning
b.) Peer assessment, in which students provide feedback on each other’s learning.
c.) Teacher assessment, in which the teacher prepares and administers tests and gives
feedback on the student’s performance.
Assessment may be FORMATIVE (providing feedback to help the student learn more)
or SUMMATIVE (expressing a judgment on the student’s achievement by reference to
stated criteria.
1.1.Subject Design
This is the oldest and so far the most familiar design for teachers, parents and other
laymen.
1.2.Discipline Design
This design model focuses on academic discipline. Discipline refers to specific
knowledge learned through a method which the scholar used to study a specific
content of their fields.
1.3.Correlation Design
Coming from a core, correlated curriculum design links separate subject design in
order to reduce fragmentations. Subject are related to one another and still maintain the
identity of the subject.
It is anchored on the needs and interest of the child. The learners is not passive
individual but as one who engages with his/her environment. One learns by doing.
Learners interact with the teachers and the environment.
