  3. Quality learning Quality learning is not possible without a High Quality Curriculum. Quality Curricula now are Competence -based and not Content and Knowledge-based aiming at attaining highly ranked student achievement standards. We are after “to know how and why , than simply what” ELT General Supervision

  4. What is a curriculum? • ‘Curriculum’ is a description of what, why, how and how well students should learn in a systematic way. • It includes all the learning experiences inside and outside the school. • It is not an end in itself but rather a means to fostering quality learning. • “A curriculum is a plan for learning.” ELT General Supervision

  5. 1.Standards • “Standards describe the goals of schooling, the destinations at which students shouldarrive at the end of term or stage. • E.g., most standards expect students graduating from high school to be able to write for different audiences in different formats things such as reports, instructions, literary criticism, persuasive and reflective essays, and to demonstrate a command ofstandard English. ELT General Supervision

  6. Standards indicate what students should know and should be able to do at grade 5, grade 9, grade 12. A curriculum is chosen to help the students meet the standards. Standards are the WHAT of education while curriculum and instruction are the HOW.” Standards do not prescribe how to get the students to this destination. That is determined by the curriculum. ELT General Supervision

  7. Kinds of Standards • 1- Content standards • Content standards indicate what students should know and should be able to do in a particular content or subject area. • E.g., students should be able to write and speak for a variety of purposes and for diverse audiences, using conventional grammar, sentence structure, punctuation, and spelling.

  11. Writing Standard • Grade 6 • Students are able to • 4.1. Write short paragraphs using precise language and specific vocabulary to convey different ideas. ELT General Supervision

  12. 2- Performance Standards • A performance standard measures how well a student's work meets the content standard. • It has levels(4, 3, 2 & 1);or (advanced, proficient, novice, and basic) • Performance standards describes the performance level in general terms. • A cut-off point must be established to be able to discriminate between those that have attained the performance standards and those who have not. ELT General Supervision

  14. Why Achievement Standards They provide teachers with targets for instruction by specifying what, and how much, learners must be able to do in order to demonstrate mastery of content standards and the achievement level that is called for. They provide clear directions to developers of tests about the kinds of performance situation and tasks that will be used to make judgments about learner proficiency. Curriculum developers will be aware of what a learner knows and can do to demonstrate proficiency against a standard. ELT General Supervision

  15. 2.Competences What are competences? “A state of being adequately or sufficiently qualified to perform a task that is reasonably well defined”. “An integrated set of knowledge , skills and attitudes that enable one to effectively perform the activities of a given occupation, “teaching”. “A measurable pattern of knowledge , skills , abilities, behaviours ,values and other characteristics that the individual needs to perform successfully”.   ELT General Supervision

  16. (IBE) Definition Competence A combination of knowledge, skills and attitudes appropriate to the context. Competence is not limited to cognitive elements (knowledge); It also encompasses functional aspects (technical skills) as well as interpersonal traits (social skills) and ethical values. ELT General Supervision

  17. Competency-based curriculum A curriculum that emphasizes the complex outcomes of a learning process (i.e. knowledge, skills and attitudes) to be applied by learners rather than mainly focusing on what learners are expected to learn. ELT General Supervision

  18. The key competences Key competences represent a transferable, multifunctional package (system) of knowledge, skills, values, attitudes, beliefs, and personal attributes that all individuals need to acquire for their personal fulfilment and development. ELT General Supervision

  19. Discipline and Competency-based curriculum ELT General Supervision

  20. Competences Skills knowledge attitudes They enable Students to effectively perform activities to the standard expected They provide a framework for distinguishing between poor performances and exceptional performance ELT General Supervision

  21. Competences Vs Learning Objectives Learning objectivesdescribe what the learner should know at the end of a learning period. They should be specific, measurable statements written in behavioral terms. • Competences are identified behaviours, knowledge, skills, and abilities that directly and positively impact the success of the learners. • Competences can be objectively measured, enhanced, and improved through coaching and learning opportunities. ELT General Supervision

  22. 4.Outcomes • An outcome is a desired state of well-being,a set of conditions, experiences or behaviours that is the goal for change or improvement. • They are anticipated or achieved results of programmesor the accomplishment of institutional objectives, as demonstrated by a wide range of indicators (such as student knowledge, cognitive skills, and attitudes) ELT General Supervision

  23. 4.Outcomes • Example: • Students will comprehend and communicate orally, using English vocabulary for personal, social, and academic purposes. • Students will acquire English vocabulary and apply knowledge of correct syntax to comprehend written text. • Students will write in English for a variety of purposes with clear focus, coherent organization, and sufficient detail.
