      • Self-Actualization: Develops individuals to their fullest potential through needs and interests of learners.
      • Development of Cognitive Processes: Focuses on developing intellectual processes, drawing primarily from subject matter.
      • Technology: Aims to make learning systematic and efficient, drawing from any source but primarily subject matter.

    Competency-Based Curriculum

    • Specifies the training experiences and learning outcomes of a course aligned with workplace requirements.
    • Includes: learning outcomes, contents, conditions, methodologies, and assessment methods.
    • Concept of Curriculum Planning: Translates competency standards into specific training plans and actions, ensuring that learning outcomes align with industry practices and standards.

    Curriculum Planning

    • Involves making decisions about what to learn, why, and how to organize the teaching and learning process, taking into account existing curriculum requirements and available resources.

        • Phase 3: Develop Final Products: Developing assessments and projects to demonstrate proficiency.
    • Cyclical Models:
      • Daryl Kenneth Wheeler's Model: Emphasizes continual review and improvement of the curriculum.
