Curriculum development notes to start with

For an introduction, try the notes on curriculum definition, principles, models and stages. They bring several planning ideas together, making them a useful starting point before you look at a particular approach.

Other notes examine educational programming, including objectives, content and evaluation. The notes on selecting resources and materials for high-ability learners outline a selection and review process. There are also notes on concept-based units and curriculum learning areas.

Using the notes to revise

Read one set of notes and make a short summary of its main ideas. Then compare it with another set: for example, move from curriculum models to educational programming and see which planning terms appear in both.

If you want a visual overview, switch to a mind map on the unit page. When you are ready to check your understanding, try a quiz there. Open a set of notes and choose a topic to work through.
