REFLECTION 3: The Roles of Curriculum workers



Curriculum workers?
What understand about Curriculum workers is, people who work on curriculum, such as teacher, lecture and so on.
They also have the responsibility to concentrate on student behaviors in devising objectives for a unit to emphasize appropriate learning experiences.

Based on what I understand curriculum had a small part in which is:

CURRICULUM PRACTITIONERS
- Use curricula within the instructional area and super- vise its use in school.

CLASSROOM TEACHERS
-Plan instruction (social studies textbooks).
-Implement a reading program.

SCHOOL ADMINISTRATORS
-Make curriculum adjustments
-Implement team teaching
-Encourage teachers to utilize particular instractional methology.

CURRICULUM DISSEMINATORS
-Make known to curriculum practitioners the existence of curricula and the proper methods of using them.

CURRICULUM EVALUATOR AND ROLES
Historically as rich as education. The concept is comprehensive that contains several evaluation activities with common function investigating certain curriculum
-Collect, examine, assess data (purpose of reporting).


CURRICULUM ADVOCATES
Educators and members of the general public.
It is might be parents attempting to influence the curriculum decision of his child's school.

CURRICULUM DEVELOPERS
Intentionally create curriculum materials and strategies for others to use in the instructional area.
- Textbook writers, teachers, curriculum specialists or concerned citizen.

TEACHERS AS DEVELOPERS
Has three competencies:
1. Professional knowledge.
- content knowledge (what you teach).
- general pedagogical knowledge ( how you teach).
- pedagogical content knowledge (why you teach this way).
2. Commitment to change.
3. Team work.

ROLE OF CURRICULUM WORKERS
1. Coordination of curriculum planing and development
2. Definition and application of curriculum theory
3. Design and application of curriculum research
4. Provision of aid in filling in-service needs of staff.

In order for me to understand better about these topic. I need to read it over and over again.
