Different Points of View of
Curriculum
The different definitions of
curriculum are influenced by modes
of thoughts, pedagogies, political as
well as cultural experiences.

14. The Nature of CURRICULUM
1.Traditional Points of View of
Curriculum
➢ “Curriculum is that body of subjects
or subject matter prepared by the
teachers for the students to learn”. It
was synonymous to the “course of
study” and “syllabus”

15. The Nature of CURRICULUM
Traditional Points of View of Curriculum
➢ discipline is the sole source of curriculum (Joseph
Schwab). Thus in our education system, curriculum
is divided into chunks of knowledge (English, Math,
Science etc.). In college discipline may include
humanities, sciences, languages and many more.
➢ curriculum should consist entirely of knowledge
which comes from various disciplines.
Most of the traditional ideas view curriculum as
written documents or a plan of action in
accomplishing goals.

16. The Nature of CURRICULUM
2. Progressive Points of View of Curriculum
➢a listing of school subjects can only be called a
curriculum if the written materials are actualized by
the learner
➢broadly speaking, curriculum is defined as the total
learning experiences of the individual (This definition
is anchored on Dewey’s definition of experience and
education. He believed that reflective thinking is a
means that unifies curricular elements. Though this
is not derived from action but tested by application).

17. Progressive Points of View of Curriculum
➢all experiences children have under the guidance
of teachers (Caswell and Campbell)
➢a sequence of potential experiences set up in
the schools for the purpose of disciplining children
and youth in group ways of thinking and
acting (Smith, Stanley and Shores),
➢all the experiences in the classroom which are
planned and enacted by the teacher and also
learned by the students

18. OTHER DEFINITIONS
➢a plan for learning (Taba, H.);
➢a course of study on a specific topic;
includes all the learning experiences
of the students as planned and
directed by the school to attain its
educational goals (Tyler) or for which
the school assumes responsibilities
(Popham and Baker)
