Study Notes

Educational Philosophies and Goals

  • Educational philosophy guides curriculum planning, reflecting national priorities and social needs
  • Educational goals outline expected outcomes at the end of an educational period, like developing critical thinking or responsible citizenship
  • Curriculum goals provide general direction for curriculum content and experiences
  • Curriculum objectives are more specific than goals, describing intended learning outcomes
  • Instructional goals/objectives specify what students should achieve in lessons

Bloom's Taxonomy

  • Developed by Benjamin Bloom in 1956
  • Categorizes cognitive learning into six levels: Remembering, Understanding, Applying, Analyzing, Evaluating, Creating
  • Remembering: Recalling facts and basic concepts
  • Understanding: Explaining concepts or ideas
  • Applying: Using information in new situations
  • Analyzing: Drawing connections among ideas
  • Evaluating: Justifying decisions or stances
  • Creating: Producing original work

Krathwohl and Bloom's Taxonomy

  • Developed in 1964
  • Categorizes affective domain learning from Receiving to Characterization
  • Receiving: Willingness to pay attention
  • Responding: Active participation
  • Valuing: Assigning worth to an idea
  • Organization: Integrating values into beliefs
  • Characterization: Consistently applying values in behavior

Dave's Taxonomy

  • Developed in 1970
  • Categorizes psychomotor skills from Imitation to Naturalization
  • Imitation: Copying actions
  • Manipulation: Practicing with some confidence
  • Precision: Performing skills accurately and confidently
  • Articulation: Coordinating actions with precision
  • Naturalization: Performing skills automatically and creatively

SMART Objectives

  • Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-Bound (SMART)
  • Objectives are clear and measurable, guiding teaching and assessment

Curriculum Development Models

  • Tyler Model (1949): Focuses on four key questions: What educational purposes? What educational experiences? How to organize experiences? How to determine if purposes are met?
  • Taba Model (1962): Emphasizes a grassroots approach, involving teachers in curriculum design
    • Seven steps in Taba's model: Diagnosis of needs, Formulating objectives, Selecting content, Organizing content, Selecting learning experiences, Organizing learning activities, Evaluation and means of evaluation
  • Saylor, Alexander, and Lewis Model (1981): A four-step process: Diagnosis of needs, Formulation of objectives, Selection of content, Organization of content
