  1. CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT STANDARD BASED AND COMPETENCY BASED MODULAR CURRICULA (The TVET Approach ) Done by: Yvonne Lopez Ministry of Education - Belize

  2. Program Development • Needs Assessment • Lead Bodies • Standards • Modular approach

  3. Needs Assessment • Needs Assessment is undertaken to guide the development of programs • Reveals knowledge, skills and attitudes required by employers • Guided by Government policies

  4. Lead Bodies • Comprises of Industry personnel • Define the main roles and responsibilities in the particular work role • Identify the knowledge, skills and understanding required • Identify attitudes required • Define the level of performance required.

  5. Standards • A precise description of what an employee is expected to be able to do in his/her job role • Reflect criteria to which tasks should be performed • Competency Standards are used in the development of curricula

  6. Modular Approach • Modules cover major areas of competencies and are an organized group of “learning experiences assembled to achieve a specific group of related objectives.” (CATVET/ILO, 1991) • Each module or set of modules is assessed and participants are required to be competent in each module • Learners are required to master each module before moving on to more advanced ones

  7. Key Purpose MODULAR CURRICULUM Key Role Relationship Module Objective Key Function Knowledge Requirement Element STANDARDS Performance Requirement Assessment Task List Performance Criteria Time Attitude Requirement Range Statement Information Sheet Job Sheet Check List Linkage of Standard to Module Rating Scale Reference

  8. Overview of Module Structure • Module Objective • Task Listing • Assessment Requirement • Prerequisite • Module Times • General Workplace Health and Safety Requirements • General Attitude Requirements to be Emphasized During Training • Support Course Outlines

  9. Learning Activity Packages (LAPs Each program Module (or, in some cases, Module Units) is further organized into a Learning Activity Package (LAP) that consists of five components: • information sheet; • job/task and check list sheet (for each skill listed in the task listing); • check list sheet (based on performance criteria defined for the Module); • reference/study material list (for the Module); • instructional methods

  10. Information Sheet The LAP Information Sheet provides the trainee with the specific knowledge. • terms and definitions; • use and care of equipment; • tips and precautions; • principles and guidelines; • study links to text, manufacturer’s manuals, other reading references; and • study links to media resources

  11. Job/Task Sheet includes: • a list of equipment, tools and materials needed to perform the task; • the performance requirements, which represent the minimum acceptable level and quality of performance outcome associated with the task; • attitude requirements

  12. Job/Task Sheet • a “step-by-step” Procedure which outlines how the trainee must perform • a trainee self-administered Practice Exercise performance checklist (see example checklist layout below); and • an instructor Procedure task-driven trainee Performance Test checklist

  13. Performance Checklist/Evaluation Form • The concept of evaluation in a competency-based instructional delivery structure is formative • The Checklist/Evaluation Form is developed from the performance requirements for the LAP • The purpose of the Performance Checklist/Evaluation Form is to ascertain trainee competency for the various tasks within a LAP that the trainee/student has just completed

  14. Summary • The Belize National Council for TVET (NCTVET) through the Ministry of Education (MOE) have adopted, as a policy, the concept of a Modular Format for the development and presentation of curriculum materials. The Modular Format forms the foundation of Belize’s future thrust in delivering technical vocational education and training (TVET) through a Competency-Based Education and Training (CBET) system and performance-based assessment mechanism. • Certification of an individual’s competency will be done through the Belize National Vocational Qualification system ( BzNVQ)
