Study Notes
Elements of Curriculum
- There are four elements of the curriculum.
Formation of Goals, Aims, Objectives
- Goals are broad statements that define the purpose and direction of the curriculum.
- Goals describe the ultimate aims of the educational program and have a long-term perspective.
- Goals are not easily measurable and provide the context for the curriculum.
- Goals help answer the question, "What do we want our students to become or achieve in the future."
- Example of a goal: "To prepare students to be informed and responsible citizens who can contribute to society."
- Aims are more specific than goals but still relatively broad.
- Aims articulate the general intentions or purposes of the curriculum.
- Aims have a medium-term perspective and are somewhat more focused and practical than goals.
- Aims provide a sense of direction for the curriculum without being overly detailed.
- Example of an aim: "To develop students' critical thinking skills and their ability to communicate effectively."
