Based on my interview I have now clearly understood the curriculum and its importance to
school. Curriculum serves as a guide to educators to be followed in order to achieve the goals in
education and to improve learners knowledge by following programs designed to them.
Although they have different definition of curriculum but it has the same taught or idea.
 Activity 2

Visit the school library/surf the internet.

Write two meanings of curriculum taken from
the authoritative sources.

Meaning of Curriculum Reference (s)

Curriculum is not a textbook, nor the materials, https://www.edelements.com/blog/what-

videos and worksheets that help us instruct students. exactly-is-curriculum
It is the knowledge and skills that students are
expected to learn as they progress through our
school system.

The term curriculum refers to the lessons and academic

content taught in a school or in a specific course or https://www.edglossary.org/curriculum/
program. In dictionaries, curriculum is often defined
as the courses offered by a school, but it is rarely used
in such a general sense in schools. Depending on how
broadly educators define or employ the term, curriculum
typically refers to the knowledge and skills students are
expected to learn, which includes the learning standards
or learning objectives they are expected to meet; the units
and lessons that teachers teach; the assignments and
projects given to students; the books, materials, videos,
presentations, and readings used in a course; and the tests,
assessments, and other methods used to evaluate student
learning.

My Analysis

Curriculum is a set of subject/activities of the course on the area

of specialization which is approved by the Department of Education

to serve as a guide in teaching to have an effective and efficient teaching

and learning process.
