A- Introduction:
Curriculum content reflects and is generated by the needs and interests of individual children within the group. Curriculum incorporated a wide variety of learning experiences, materials, equipments, and instructional strategies to accommodate a broad range of individuals' differences in prior experience, maturation rates, and styles of learning, needs and interests.
Curricula must be regularly reviewed and reformed to reflect these changes and to adequately prepare pupils to respond to their environment and its challenges. The reformation must always take into consideration the following process technical steps:
- Define and agree on objectives.
- Brainstorm ideas and suggestions.
- Categorize, condense, combine and refine activities and ideas.
- Assess and analyze results.
- Control and Monitor follow up.
B- Curriculum:
We are focusing on a host of curriculum development issues ranging from management of curriculum reform, to content and methodological issues related to citizenship education, violence, and learning to live together through the teaching of history and geography.
C- Teachers and Methods:
New approaches to active pedagogical learning and innovative modalities need to be developed to encourage teachers to change from using a traditional lecture approach to a more interactive style of teaching. Pedagogical technique should include participatory and gender
– sensitive teaching and learning methods and strategies that foster critical thinking and problem solving skills. They should instill in pupils willingness and motivation to continue learning beyond the classroom.
D- Learning Materials:
The shortage of relevant, low-cost books for use inside and outside school continues to pose challenges to providing quality education for all. Uneven access to teaching and learning materials, inadequate provision of reading materials that develop vital literacy skills and unacceptable pupil/ book ratios continue to exist.
A global strategy focusing on the links between sustainable book production and quality education in production and quality education is currently under development.
E- Language:
Many children are disadvantaged and excluded from quality education because they do not have the opportunity to learn in the language they best understand. Normally a national language is used in most educational settings. However, this can be a major obstacle in gaining literacy skills for those who do not speak it. Action areas include guidance on the implementation of bi/multilingual education policies for national policy-makers and planners, language of instruction policies, elaboration of teaching-learning materials in national languages, promoting cultural and linguistic diversity, and use of the mother tongue (both in pupil and teacher training).
