Curriculum development is a
planned, systematic process of
creating, revising, or updating
educational programs,
encompassing courses, content,
and learning experiences to achieve
specific learning outcomes.

Importance of Curriculum
Development in Education
•Curriculum development is crucial in
education as it ensures a structured,
relevant, and effective learning
experience, aligning with educational
goals, promoting student success, and
empowering educators to deliver engaging
instruction.
Technical-Scientific
Approach
Based on
systematic
planning and
objective
measurement
Emphasizes
efficiency, order,
and pre-
determined
objectives
Influenced
by
behaviorist
learning
theories
Technical-Scientific
Approach
 Example:
Development of
standardized tests
and structured
learning materials
•It is a way of planning a
curricula to optimize
student’s learning and
to allow them to
increase their output.
TheTylerModel
• Developed by Ralph Tyler in
1949
• It focuses on four basic
principles of curriculum and
instruction; purposes of
school, educational
experiences related to
purposes, organization of the
experiences, and evaluation
of the process.
1.PurposeofSchool
- Identify educational goals based on learner needs and
societal demands by gathering data from three sources:
subject matter, the learners and the society.
- After identifying objectives, the curriculum planners were
to refine them by filtering through two screens, the
philosophy of the school and the psychology of learning.
2.EducationalExperiencesRelatedtothe
Purposes
• Learning experiences had to take in to account
by both the previous experience and the
perceptions that the learners bring to a
situation.
• Also, the experiences were to be selected in
light of what educators know about learning
and human development.
• Choose activities that align with objectives.
3.Organizationof theExperiences
•Arrange experiences for effective learning
•The ordering of the experiences had to be
somewhat systematic so as to produce a
maximum cumulative effect.
4.Evaluationoftheprocess
•Assess learning outcomes and revise as
needed
•It is important to determine whether the
program was effective or ineffective. An
evaluation should relate to all the
objectives.
APPLICATIONOFTHE TYLERMODEL
 Used in K-12 and higher education curriculum
planning
 Focuses on clear instructional objectives
 Strengths: Structured, goal-oriented, and measurable
 Limitations: May not fully address student interests
and adaptability
THETABAMODEL:GRASS
ROOTSPRINCIPLES
Hilda Taba's curriculum
development model is a "grassroots"
or "bottom-up"
approach, emphasizing teacher
involvement and starting with the
needs and experiences of learners
to develop relevant and effective
curricula.
1.DIAGNOSISOFNEEDS
•The teacher (curriculum
designer) starts the process by
identifying the needs of
students whom the curriculum
is to be planned.
2.FormulationofObjectives
•After the teacher has identified
the needs that require
attention, he or she specifies
objectives to be accomplished.
3.Selectionof Content
•The objectives selected or
created suggest the subject
matter or content of the
curriculum.
4.OrganizationofContent
•A teacher cannot just select
content, but must organize it in
some type of sequence, taking
into consideration the maturity
of the learners, their academic
achievement and their interests.
5.SelectionofLearningExperiences
•Content must be presented to
the pupils and pupils must
engage the content.
6.OrganizationofLearningActivities
•Just as content must be
sequenced and organized, so
must the learning activities.
7.EvaluationandMeansof
Evaluation
•The curriculum planner must
determine just what objectives
have been accomplished.
•Assessing effectiveness and
making improvements.
Implications in the Philippine Education System
• Teacher Empowerment: Encourages Filipino educators to take an
active role in curriculum design.
• Localization of Curriculum: Adapts learning content to Filipino
culture and context.
• Learner-Centered Education: Focuses on students' needs,
experiences, and backgrounds.
• K-12 Program Alignment: Supports the competency-based and
contextualized learning approach in the Philippine K-12 system.
Comparison of Tyler and Taba Models
Aspect Tyler Model Taba Model
• Approach • Top-down,
administrative-
driven
• Bottom-up,
teacher-driven
• Basis • Pre-determined
objectives
• Flexible and
evolving
• Teacher’s Role • Implementer • Developer
• Focus • Structure and
evaluation
• Student needs
and adaptation
Conclusion
 Both models contribute to curriculum development in different ways
 The Tyler Model provides structured guidance and assessment
 The Taba Model encourages teacher innovation and responsiveness
 Effective curriculum development requires a balance between structured
planning and adaptability

NON-TECHNICAL APPROACH
•A non-technical approach to curriculum
development is a flexible, learner-centered
approach that prioritizes individual needs and
interests over predetermined objectives and
outcomes. It emphasizes a more holistic and less
structured learning experience, focusing on the
process of learning rather than a specific
product.
NON-TECHNICAL APPROACH
•A flexible, non-traditional learning environment
•Focuses on student choice, autonomy, and
collaboration
•Classrooms are arranged to promote interaction
and exploration
OPEN CLASSROOM MODEL
Key characteristics
•Multi-age grouping of students
•Teachers as facilitators, not lecturers
•Learning centers or stations for various activities
•No fixed seating or rigid structure
Advantages
•Encourages creativity and independence
•Supports different learning styles
•Promotes peer learning and collaboration
•Enhances motivation and engagement
Role of the Teacher
•Acts as a guide and mentor
•Designs diverse and meaningful learning activities
•Observes and supports individual progress
•Fosters a positive and inclusive classroom culture
Challenges
•Requires strong classroom management skills
•Can be noisy or chaotic without structure
•Needs careful planning and resource availability
•Not always supported by traditional school systems
GLATHORN’S NATURALISTIC MODEL

Introduction to Goodlad’s Model
• - Developed by John Goodlad
• - Emphasizes the complexity and multiple levels of curriculum
• - Focuses on the relationship between curriculum theory and
classroom practice
Four Types of Curriculum
• 1. **Ideal Curriculum** – What society expects (philosophical,
national goals)
• 2. **Formal Curriculum** – Written and officially approved content
• 3. **Perceived Curriculum** – What teachers understand and
interpret
• 4. **Operational Curriculum** – What is actually taught in the
classroom
Key Principles
• - Curriculum should reflect both societal needs and classroom realities
• - Emphasizes teacher autonomy and student experiences
• - Encourages ongoing curriculum evaluation
Focus Areas
• - Curriculum planning and development
• - Classroom observation and teacher practice
• - Learner outcomes and school environment
Advantages
