Foundations of Curriculum
Foundations are the forces that
influence the minds of curriculum developers.
In this way they affect the content
and structure of the curriculum. The five most important foundations of the
curriculum are;
1. Philosophical foundation of
Curriculum
2. Psychological foundations of
Curriculum
3. Socio Cultural Foundation of Curriculum
4. Historical Foundations of Curriculum
5. Economical Foundations of Curriculum
Economical Foundations
It focuses on:
• Job or market oriented curriculum
• Skill learning
The
economical foundation of curriculum gives importance to the vocational aspect
of the curriculum. The economic
condition of a nation or a society guide the curriculum of the country,
because the stakeholder of the education wants to employ such a curriculum
which help them to build their economy and the people have better jobs when
they finish their schooling. In this kind of situations the curriculum become
job or market oriented. In this curriculum the curriculum developer gives
importance to skills acquisition which is the demands of the time. Undeveloped
nations try to prepare skill work force and send it to other countries for jobs
Here are
some economical factor which influence the curriculum development process
Economic Factors
- Allocation of funds
The financial condition of a
country reflects its curriculum because without proper funding one can’t
achieve the outcome of a good curriculum. It is the financial aspect of a
country which guide them to adopt which type of curriculum, for example
activity base or learner center curriculum need more money in the process of
the implementation of the curriculum then subject matter curriculum
Because
activity base and learner center curriculum need more space and money then
subject matter, for that reason in Pakistan we adopted subject base curriculum
because we have shortage of schools, classrooms in schools, trained teachers.
In economical sound countries they have implemented all kind of curriculums in
their schools according to the need of the school and that society. Without
proper funding once can’t implement a good curriculum in the country and
achieve the benefits of that curriculum.
Lack of
resources due to finical constrains effect the developing and planning of the
curriculum. What type of a curriculum should have to support it through proper
funding? There are different factor in curriculum development, planning and
implementation process which need financial support e.g.
Schools
lack physical facilities including buildings, classrooms, furniture, Hostel,
Play grounds, mats and even very basic necessities like blackboard, chalk, and
charts.
Lack of
other resources water, Fan, Electricity
Lack of skilled manpower
The lack of skilled manpower due to
financial restrains, without proper financial support it is hard to train the
people to support the teaching learning process. Only through proper funding
and the establishment of training institutions for teachers and support staff.
Teachers are the core of education system and without proper training one can’t
implement a curriculum and to support the curriculum one need to train the
entire teacher on that style of curriculum. So the skills of the teachers also
guide the direction of the curriculum, and to develop these skills in the
teachers need funds.
Lack of labs due to financial problems
The lack of labs and libraries also
affect the curriculum development process because without proper computer labs
in cities and villages one can’t implement computer education curriculum all
over the country. In the same way without proper libraries in all school one
can’t implement a curriculum which needs supporting or reference books.
Also without proper health care
system in the schools lot of activities can’t part of the curriculum due to the
risk factor to the health of the students and teachers.
The
overburden of the population is also one of the factors that affect the
financial support of the curriculum development, lack of facilities and implementation
of the curriculum in the country.
In short
we can say that economic play a vital role in the curriculum development and
implementation process in the country and it is the foundation of the
successful curriculum, without a good economic background a country can’t
afford a curriculum which needs huge financial support.
