EDTS 514 - Constructing & Evaluating a Curriculum (3)

Whether you’re starting from scratch or adding your own flair to material someone else created, constructing a curriculum can be overwhelming. There are so many decisions to make and factors to consider that you can sometimes feel defeated before you start.

In this course, you will take an in-depth look at curriculum development and delivery. The information and activities within the course will help you determine your students’ unique needs so you can create student-centered learning outcomes. To figure out what works best for you, you’ll examine research-based curriculum approaches such as integrated studies, project-based learning (PBL), and growth mindset. In addition, you’ll learn how to evaluate curriculum, from curriculum mapping to instructor evaluation, to ensure that your curriculum is effective and engaging for all involved.

Using the tools from this course, you will be able to confidently build and evaluate your curriculum to ensure that your students’ needs, your teaching style, and your learning standards all align and work together to create a dynamic educational experience.
