(Teaching –Learning Process)

Functions, Goals and Characteristics of

Curriculum

Goals of

Curriculum

Four (4) Goals of Curriculum

1. Product Modification

the goal is to provide chances for students to

develop products that reflect their capability.

2. Process Modification

the goal is to improve high level cognitive

skills and creativity and to enhance productive use

and to manage the knowledge of the students have

mastered.

3. Content Modification

is to use the student’s skills in building a

diverse, richer and organized knowledge based.

4. Learning Environment is to have a learning environment that

provides confidence to the students to enhance

their capabilities to the greatest extent possible.

Characteristics of Curriculum

1. Research-rich environment

may be of various kinds:

active researchers may include the outcomes of

their research into the curriculum; students may be

encouraged to learn in research-like ways, tackling

complex problems with a growing level of

autonomy; students may work in an environment

and culture that clearly values research.

2. Advanced academic literacy

refers to an approach to learning that

stresses the student’s active involvement in understanding the discourse conventions of the

discipline, in the belief that language is at the heart of a discipline.

3.Community engagement

recognizes that students learn through

experiences within and beyond the university,

often through placements in community or business settings.

4. Global connectedness

suggests that students should have not

only a deep understanding of the wider significance

of that which they are studying, but that they are

likely to be able to participate effectively in an

international environment. Year abroad schemes

are an obvious example of provision designed to

enhance such a capability.

5. Inter disciplinarity

occurs when academic perspectives

from two or more disciplines and expert

communities are brought together, often in relation

to a “real world” issue, such as “the urban

environment” in order to generate fresh

approaches and insights that could not be attained by disciplines working independently.
