curriculumn development

1. Planning , Implementing and Evaluating : Understanding the Connections Presented by: Pachica, Gerry B. Presented to: Mrs. Mantawil , Bainorie A.

2. Desired Learning Outcomes Explain the connection of planning to implementing in curriculum development. Explain the connection of implementing to evaluating in curriculum development. Explain the connection of evaluating to planning in curriculum development. Understand the connections between planning and implementing and evaluating in the curriculum process.

3. The Evaluation Cycle: The Connections

4. Planning, implementing and assessing are three processes in curriculum development that are taken separately but are connected to each other. The cycle continues as each imbedded in a dynamic change that happens in curriculum development.

5. Key idea: Planning is an initial step in curriculum development.

6. It includes determining the needs through an assessment. Needs would include those of the learners, teachers, the community and the society as these relate the curriculum.

7. Key idea: Implementation continues after planning

8. What would be implemented? The planned curriculum which was written should be implemented. It has to be put into action or used by a curriculum implementor who is the teacher. Curriculum plans should not remain as a written document. It will become useless.

9. Key idea: Evaluation follows implementation.

10. The focus of this chapter is evaluation after planning, and implementation was done. It is very necessary to find out at this point, if the planned or written curriculum was implemented successfully and the desired learning outcomes were achieved.

11. Key idea: what has been planned, should be implemented and what has been implemented should be evaluated. Finally the PIE. The cyclical flow of the three processes in curriculum development is very easy to remember and follow. As a curricularist , these guiding ideas clarify our understanding that one cannot assess what was not taught, nor implement what was not planned. PLAN then IMPLEMENT then EVALUATE and the cycle begins.
