GROUPING &
PLACEMENT
 Organization of Learning Experiences

systematically,and sequentially.
• Once you selected the learning experience, you have to organize
them..
• Remember that as a management function, organization involves
identification and grouping of activities to be performed along with

• All elements of the curriculum should be related to one another.

• The following Are the criteria Which can serve as guide for effective
organization of the subject matter and the learning experience in
curriculum.
a) Sequence
b) Integration
c) Continuity
 Cont ….

• Considering these Principles we have to make decisions regarding

the various courses and clinical experience Which need to include
in1st, 2nd,3rd,4th year of B.Sc nursing curriculum.
• For example 1st year Of B.Sc nursing including the following courses.

on basic of said principle and should be placed in successive year of
the curriculum to be effective .
