My Personal Insights
The Curriculum development is a dynamic process involving many different individuals and procedures. It is
very necessary for a teacher to know and master the program so that he/she has a good quality of the learning
process in the classroom. Through the identifying of different curriculum, as future educator I can identify
which specific and appropriate curriculum can use and integrate students who can easily obtain and apply to
their learning experiences. That is why curricular models are very important for the learning of teachers and
students.
