Questions:
1. Why do you think curriculum evaluation is important?
Answer:
There are a few reasons why curriculum evaluation is important. First, it
allows educators to determine whether or not the goals and objectives of the
curriculum are being met. Second, it provides feedback that can be used to improve
the quality of the curriculum. Finally, it helps ensure that resources are being used
effectively and efficiently.
2. What is the difference between evaluation and assessment?
Answer:
Evaluation is the process of determining whether something meets pre-
established criteria. Assessment is the process of gathering information in order to
make a judgement about something.
3. How often do schools evaluate the curriculum?
Answer:
Often. This is especially true when the curriculum is very new. At the end of
the school year, the principal and/or superintendent will usually meet with teachers

and department leaders. A different teaching style or extra time with a video or
workbook can sometimes be the "fix." A teacher may not feel competent or even
comfortable teaching a particular subject.
Every three to five years, schools and school districts will conduct a thorough
assessment of their curriculum. There, test scores will be examined, as well as
literature and learning materials. Parents or parent groups will frequently assist with
this more thorough review.

crisis-induced innovation and creativity be used to improve education institutions and

make them more equitable, inclusive, and resilient. As a result, the purpose of this
article is to provide stakeholders in the educational system with a crisis-driven look at
potential prospects for change in the areas of curricula, students, teachers, and
educational settings. The COVID-19 pandemic has already had severe effects, with

school closures being especially severe for disadvantaged children and their families,
as well as all learners with learning difficulties and special needs.

managers, curriculum specialist for policy recommendations that will enhance
achieved learning outcomes. Assessment is significant for various reasons: the results

courses and/or programs by changing the curriculum, teaching styles, course
materials, or other factors.
