12.  “The model accomplishes two purposes;
1)Suggests a system that curriculum planners
might wish to follow
2)Serves as the framework for explanations of
phases or components of the process for
curriculum improvement

13. REFLECTION:
 The Oliva curriculum reflects the learners, values,
and needs of the population it will serve. Oliva goes
on to describe curriculum development as “a
cooperative group activity”, “systematic”, and
“(most) effective if it is a comprehensive process,
rather than piecemeal”. This illustrates the point that
“doing what we have always done” is not
acceptable in schools today and educators must
become active participants in making changes to
their curriculum at the district and classroom level.
