Preschool Ĭurriculum development at the preschool level is based on several schools of thought. It may be shaped by pedagogical approaches contributed by theorists and researchers, such as John Dewey, Lev Vygotsky, Jean Piaget, Jerome Bruner, and Albert Bandura. Ĭurriculum development can be described as a three-stage process encompassing planned, delivered and experienced curriculum. It designs and reviews curriculum, promotes teaching and assessment strategies aligned with curriculum, formulates special curriculum programmes, creates clear, observable objectives, and generates useful assessment rubrics. Curriculum planning and development Ĭurriculum planning and development involves 'the design and development of integrated plans for learning, and the evaluation of plans, their implementation and the outcomes of the learning experience'. Co-curricular activities may also include advocacy, botany, personal-care, innovation, research-methodology and current-affairs groups. Co-curricular activities include science-oriented talent-development programmes, clubs and societies, sports, uniformed groups, and visual- and performing-arts groups.
The activities help foster a sense of social integration, and add a sense of commitment and belonging to one's community and country. Scope Co-curricular activities Ĭo-curricular activities help students maintain a holistic education, expressing their interests and talents. 1.2 Curriculum planning and development.
