Introduction to Curriculum Development and Concept Organization

Through interacting with the content in Chamberlain and Cummings (2003) an educator can begin to understand the importance of organization and planning of instruction. This section attempts to illustrate a process of developing curriculum for various educational settings. Please view the PowerPoint and complete the Application Assignment. Within this section, I have also included the requirements for developing a unit plan. It is not due until November, but I felt it necessary for you to begin preparing for this assignment. The more time you have to ponder the requirements, the more you will be prepared to be successful. Some of you may currently develop curriculum, unit and lesson plans, but it is essential that I provide an expected format for completing the lessons plans focusing on various teaching methods and strategies. How to integrate the methods and strategies of teaching into planning is as important as the content defining and explaining individual methods and strategies. Enjoy! |
