A curriculum is a standard-based sequence of planned experiences through which students practice and achieve proficiency in content and applied learning skills. Educators rely on the curriculum for every student’s essential needs with regard to teaching and learning. It serves as a road map for teachers and students to follow a path towards evidenced-based academic success. curriculum must clearly state the goals, methods, materials and assessments required to support instruction and learning effectively: curriculum must clearly state the goals, methods, materials and assessments required to support instruction and learning effectively: Goals Goals are the standard-based targets or expectations for teaching and learning. Most often, goals are prepared explicitly in the form of a scope and a sequence of skills to be addressed. Goals must encompass the breadth and depth to which a student is expected to learn.Methods Methods are the instructional decisions, approaches, procedures and routines teachers use to make learning engaging and interesting, thus making the learning meaningful. These pave the way for the facilitation of learning experiences that will promote students’ ability to understand and to apply content and skills learned. Methods are differentiated to meet student needs and interests, task demands and learning environment, and therefore they promote learning inclusivity. Methods are continuously adjusted, based on the results of ongoing review of student progress towards meeting goals. Materials Materials are the tools needed and selected to successfully implement the methods and achieve the goals of the curriculum. Materials are intentionally and carefully chosen, making sure that they are appropriate to support students’ learning. They must reflect inclusivity that will cater to student interests, cultural diversity and world perspectives as well as addressing all types of diverse learners. Assessment Assessment in terms of a curriculum refers to the ongoing process of gathering information about a student’s learning. This includes different ways to document what the student knows, understands, and can do with their knowledge and skills. Information from assessments is used to make decisions in choosing the right instructional approaches, teaching materials and academic supports needed to enhance student opportunities and guide future instruction.
