Features: "Curriculum Design—A Teacher's Guide to Curriculum Development" aims to bridge the gap between the theory and practice of curriculum development. It primarily targets teachers and in-service teachers. The book presents the concepts and skills of curriculum development and demonstrates how to apply these concepts and skills to practical curriculum planning. The primary goal of this book is to help readers become flexible and systematic curriculum designers by increasing their awareness of the important decisions they make and the alternative action processes at each decision point. "Curriculum Design" has four functions: (1) as a textbook for graduate and undergraduate courses on curriculum development and instructional design, or as a supplement to a "methodology" course; (2) as a foundation for workshops for frontline teachers in in-service training; (3) as learning material for teachers who wish to improve their professional abilities; (4) as supplementary material in curriculum development courses, where our typical approach involves having students develop curricula or units step by step to supplement theoretical content. Students then receive feedback on their progress and can review the work of other students.
