common definition derived from the word Latin root, which means “racecourse.”

How Do We Define Curriculum?It is important to keep in mind that schools in
the Western Civilization have been heavily influenced since the fourth century B.C. by the philosophies of Plato and Aristotle and the word curriculum has been used historically to describe the subjects that are being taught during the classical period of Greek Civilization.

has broaden in the 20th century to include subjects other that the Classics. Today school documents, newspaper articles, committee reports, and many academic textbooks refer to any and all subjects offered are prescribed as the curriculum of the school.

History of Curriculum
Three focus points for Curriculum Decisions
![Page 10: Curriculum Development](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061205/547468e0b4af9f2c318b4645/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
History of Curriculum1. The Nature of Subject MatterContent of the curriculum, and what subject matter to
include in the curriculum.The subject matter of history should be based on evens that actually happened in the past.
2. The Nature of the SocietyIf the curriculum is to have utilitarian values, then it must
lead the student not only to knowledge of the external world for its own sake, but also to knowledge that can be applied in the world.
![Page 11: Curriculum Development](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061205/547468e0b4af9f2c318b4645/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
History of Curriculum3. The Nature of the Individuals The third basic focal point around which decisions
about curricula can be made is the nature of the individual.
The curriculum is also a set of suggestions to the teacher about how to take advantage of the present opportunities worthwhile, growth for each student in the long run.
The History of Curricula of American school during the 20th century is, therefore, a history of these three focal points for deciding on content ad making other curriculum decisions.

History of CurriculumColonial Era and the Early United States
Curriculum was not an issue in Colonial America during the early years of the United States.
Colonies along the Atlantic seaboard were under British control during the 17th/18th centuries. These immigrants were from many European nations.
Despite their differences the settlers shared common assumptions about education.

History of Curriculum
Given these assumptions about education and how
they worked out in schools of colonial America, the
focus point of the curriculum was the nature
of subject matter.
