TERMS AND CONCEPTS
CURRICULUM GOALS
Curriculum goals are the behaviour and knowledge attitudes that we expect students to gain at the end of the subject. These goals are grouped or set up for the whole class, not for a single student.
For example;
Students will think critically and solve problems effectively.
Students will access information effectively.
Students will communicate effectively for a variety of purposes and audiences.
Students will contribute positively to the school community through their actions, behaviors, and work habits.
"A curriculum goal is a purpose or end stated in general terms without criteria of achievement." (Marut Patphol, 2015)
Charasterictis of Curriculum Goals by Marut Patphol:
2- They are programmatic.
1- They relate to the educational aims and philosophy.
3- They refer to the accomplishment of groups rather than the achievement of individual students.
4- They are broad enough to lead to specific curriculum objectives.
TEACHING PROGRAM
A teaching programme is a shared plan specifying how the studies included in a degree programme/specialisation are offered to students. The purpose is to ensure that the studies can be completed in a smooth and logical manner
Instructions for Teaching.
CURRICULUM
A set of guidelines of the diverse educational contents and branches that are covered during a schedule presented by a certain educational organisation.
Prescriptive.
Structured for completed course.
Cannot be easily changed.
Determined by: Administrations or Government.
Same for all teachers.
Lasts until the course ends.
"course of deeds and experiences through which children grow to become mature adults" (Hlebowitsh, 2004).
OBJECTIVES
Learning objectives are statements of what educators intend to teach or substitute in a learning experience.
More detailed than learning goals
Not necessarily perceptible nor measurable
Teacher-centered rather than student-centered
Helpful for formulating more precise learning outcomes
Each objective is associated with one of the goals and can be achieved through learning experiences in multiple courses throughout the school. Objectives are prioritized based on the requirements specified in the needs assessment.
For example;
We will cover historical perspectives and debates about the role of mass communication in the 20th century. Students will understand the impacts and effects of new media on identity formation.
"A course objective specifies a behavior, skill, or action that a student can demonstrate if they have achieved mastery of the objective. As such, objectives need to be written in such a way that they are measurable by some sort of assessment. Course objectives form the foundation of the class. Everything in the course should work together to ensure students master the course objectives."
Teaching Guides
SYLLABUS
A document that has all the knowledge about various topics or concepts that need to be substituted for a certain matter.
Can be easily changed.
Determined by: Exam Board.
Different from one teacher to another.
Lasts until a fixed-term, can be a year too.
Structured for each subject under the course.
Descriptive.
According to Okai (2010), the phrase syllabus refers to an overview or list of matters students are considered to examine in a given year or defined period of learning. Syllabi are brief outlines of lessons or characteristics of the curriculum that list subjects to be taught in a provided course or programme.
LEARNING OUTCOMES
Learning outcomes are specific statements of what students will be able to do when they complete a learning experience. Learning outcomes are written in a student-centred, measurable manner that is brief, meaningful, and achievable.
Learning outcomes can be designed at the primary school or university level, they can also perform within an individual course. Generally, instructors divide their courses into smaller units like weeks, and many instructors specify learning outcomes for these smaller units. As the level of analysis evolves smaller, from a module to an assignment, the learning outcomes tend to be more specific and efficiently quantifiable.
According to
Teaching Commons
Learning outcomes help instructors;
describe to students what is expected of them
plan appropriate teaching strategies, materials and assessments
learn from and make changes to curriculum to improve student learning
assess how the outcomes of a single course align with larger outcomes for an entire program
Learning outcomes help students;
anticipate what they will gain from an educational experience
track their progress and know where they stand
know in advance how they'll be assessed
