2. The term curriculum refers to the
lessons and academic content
taught in a school or in a specific
course or program.

My
analysis
After reading the meanings of curriculum which I got from surfing
the internet, I observed that the two meanings mainly focuses about
curriculum as a set of learning experiences, instructional practices and
lessons which are designed for learners to be achieved in a specific course.

Evolve your own definition of curriculum. Consider all the meanings

Activity 3
you have taken from different sources and from authoritative sources.

WHAT IS
CURRICULUM
 MY reflection/insights

Why is curriculum important?

Curriculum is very important because it serves as a guide, a

framework or an outline in order to properly execute a subject. It
helps the teacher to track all the programs, lessons and learning
experiences which should be taught to the learners because every
subject has different learning goals.

How can one enrich the curriculum in every school?

Since curriculum is changing and continuously developed by

experts, curriculum can be enriched by consciously knowing the
needs of students and the society through research and evaluation. By
that we can assess the needs and cater them through revising or
changing the curriculum we have in present.
