Descrição:

They describe curriculum development as involving four stages:

The careful examination, drawing on all available sources of knowledge and informed judgement , of the objectives of teaching, whether in particular subject courses or over the curriculum as a whole.

The development and trial use in schools of those methods and materials which are judged most likely to achieve the objectives which teachers agreed upon.

The assessment of the extent to which the development work has in fact achieved its objectives. This part of the process may be expected to provoke new thought about the objectives themselves.

The final element is therefore feedback of all the experience gained , to provide a starting point for further study.
