   • Shows a model of the curriculum process that includes goals, aims, objectives, teaching, learning, assessment, evaluation, and modification.
   • Goals are general outcomes of a course of study
     • Hopes are long-term aspirations (e.g. becoming a professional).
       • While aims are more specific and applicable to the whole course.
   • Assessment measures how successfully students have achieved the course aims
     • The evaluation covers teaching efficacy, student feedback, and assessment procedures.
   • Organize a teaching program so that aims and objectives are achieved intentionally rather than by accident.
   • Providing students with a list of course aims can help them understand where they're going and stay engaged in the material.

2. Ignoring any component of the curriculum process can lead to major difficulties.
