DPE 102- CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT

2. OBJECTIVES
1. DEFINE CURRICULUM INNOVATION
2. ANALYZE THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF CURRICULUM INNOVATIONS;
AND
3. APPRECIATE THE POSITIVE CONTRIBUTION OF CURRICULUM
INNOVATIONS IN THE EDUCATION SYSTEM

4. “Innovation” – new object, new idea practice, or the process by which a new object, idea, or practice
comes to be adopted by an individual group or organization.
“Curriculum change” – a term in curriculum studies which means any changes in the curriculum
that are either planned or unplanned.
“Curriculum Innovation” – new knowledge about curriculum, new curriculum theories, outstanding
curricular practices, new curriculum, or new curriculum designs that are sometimes developed out of
a research in education or other studies from other disciplines and academic fields.

5. FOUR (4) CORE CHANGES IN EDUCATIONAL CONTEXT THAT SHAPE THE
DEFINITION OF CURRICULUM INNOVATION:
1. forms of regrouping or new groupings (structure);
2. new curriculum materials;
3. changes in some aspects of teaching practices (new activities, skills and
behavior); and
4. a change in beliefs or understandings vis-à-vis curriculum and learning.

6. DIFFERENT TYPES OF CURRICULUM INNOVATIONS
A. STANDARD-BASED
CURRICULUM
B. MULTICULTURAL
CURRICULUM
C. INDIGENOUS CURRICULUM
D. BRAIN-BASED EDUCATION
E. GIFTED EDUCATION
CURRICULUM
F. DIFFERENTIATED CURRICULUM
G. TECHNOLOGY INTEGRATION IN THE CURRICULUM
H. OUTCOME-BASED EDUCATION

7. A. STANDARD-BASED
CURRICULUM
– is designed based on content standards as explicated by experts in the field (Glatthorn et al 1998).
Curriculum standards include general statements of knowledge, skills, and attitudes that students
should learn and master as a result of schooling. They are statement of what students should know
and be able to do. Standards generally include three different aspects: knowledge, skills and
dispositions.
1. Knowledge or content standards– describe what students should know. These include themes or
conceptual strands that should be nurtured throughout the students’ education.
2. Skills standards – include thinking and process skills and strategies that students should acquire.
3. Dispositions– are attitudes and values that should be developed and nurtured in students.

8. VanTassel-Baska (2008) identified varieties of benefits of using curriculum
standards to education:
1. Ensure that students learn what they need to know for high-level functioning in
the 21st
century.
2. Ensure educational quality across school districts and educational institutions.
3. Provide educators with guideposts to mark the way to providing students with
meaningful outcomes to work on.
4. Provide a curriculum template within which teachers and candidates are able to
focus on instructional delivery techniques that work.

9. B. MULTICULTURAL CURRICULUM

13. C. INDIGENOUS CURRICULUM

17. D. BRAIN-BASED EDUCATION

20. E. GIFTED EDUCATION CURRICULUM

28.  Differentiation is a philosophy that enables teachers to plan strategically in
order to reach the needs of the diverse learners in classroom today. A
differentiated curriculum therefore is a curriculum that considers the unique
characteristics learning style, thinking preferences, intelligence, need cultural
background interests, gender and other unique characteristics of the learners.
It is a curriculum enhances learning making it learner-centered and dynamic.
F. DIFFERENTIATED CURRICULUM

29. As curriculum innovation, differentiated curriculum is designed to help learners to
experience learning and to be engaged in doing several meaningful classroom activities. In
differentiated curriculum, the lessons are carefully selected learning experiences are carefully
designed based on the learning styles of the learners, and the assessment tools are varied.
According to Gayle Gregory and Carolyn Chapman (2002), there are six steps in planning
differentiated learning.
1.Set Standards
2. Define content
3. Activate Prior knowledge
4. Acquire new knowledge
5. Apply and adjust the learning;
6. Assess learning

30.  TECHNOLOGY INTEGRATION is breaking the geographical barriers in education. It is creating
a new space for meaningful learning. With technology, it is now possible to connect and interact with
other schools, educators, and other institutions from different parts of the world.
 Then there are several innovations from basic education to graduate education that are associated or
influenced by technology integration.
 Some of these innovations are:
● Distance Education
● Computer-assisted instruction;
● Online learing;
● Teleconferencing
● Online libraries
● Webinars
● Online journal; and
● Ebooks
G. TECHNOLOGY INTEGRATION IN THE CURRICULUM

31.  So Information and Communications Technology ICT literacy is
now fast-becoming an important form of literacy that is important for
ache learner to learn and master. It also requires all the teachers to be
ICT literature to be able to utilize technology, to enhance or improve
the way they teach students to use technology responsibly especially
with the current popularity of social networking and other technological
innovations.
