DOES DESIGNING THE CURRICULUM HELP YOU THINK THROUGH HOW TO CREATE THE BEST LEARNING ENVIRONMENT FOR THE LEARNERS?

According to the above statement, designing the curriculum helped me to think through how to create the best learning environment for the learners. Before that, I would like to explain what is curriculum. Curriculum is the knowledge and skills that a student are expected to learn, which includes the leaning standards or learning objectives that they are expected to meet.

A curriculum helped the teachers how to create the best learning environment. This is because basically in a curriculum, it contains the series of lesson plans, all designed together so that over the series of the course of lessons in which the teachers can cover everything that needs to be covered.

Since a curriculum comprises of a series of lesson plans, the teachers will be less worried on preparing their lesson plan and also can prepare the best teaching and learning materials for the learners. By doing this, it will create a good environment for the learners (students).

Besides that, a curriculum is very helpful for new teacher as they don't have much experiences in teaching. As I mentioned earlier, curriculum becomes as a guide for the new teachers on what to teach, how to teach, how long do they need to teach, what materials can be used for teaching and so on. Based on the curriculum, the new teachers can have their own preparation earlier before entering the classroom for teaching and learning session.

To draw end this blog, I'm sure for those who read my blog agreed to what I have written. There is no learning if there is no curriculum.

Thank you :)
