2. The term curriculum refers to the lessons and academic
content taught in a school or in a specific course or program.
In dictionaries, curriculum is often defined as the courses
offered by a school, but it is rarely used in such a general
sense in schools. Depending on how broadly educators define
or employ the term, curriculum typically refers to the
knowledge and skills students are expected to learn, which
includes the learning standards or learning objectives they are
expected to meet; the units and lessons that teachers teach;
the assignments and projects given to students; the books,
materials, videos, presentations, and readings used in a
course; and the tests, assessments, and other methods used
to evaluate student learning.

essentially of disciplined study in five great areas: 1)
command of mother tongue and the systematic study of
grammar, literature, and writing. 2) mathematics, 3) sciences,
4) history, 5) foreign language.
 Albert Oliver (1977): curriculum is “the educational program
of the school” and divided into four basic elements: 1)
program of studies, 2) program of experiences, 3) program of
service, 4) hidden curriculum.

program of an educational institution. Therefore, the
curriculum covers the entire experience of the
learner through the teacher's teaching plan. The
curriculum covers what and why to teach, how and
when to teach, and how to assess students'
achievement.
