Assignment 1
Questions, answers and in depth explanations
The field of curriculum, is a 20th century development in education that
a. developed independently of schooling.
b. closely paralled the development of schooling.
c. is simple and clear.
d. did not involve any theory.
The field of curriculum developed in the 20th century in close association with the growth
and development of schooling. As schools became more widespread and formalized,
educators and scholars began to pay greater attention to the content and organization of
the curriculum, leading to the development of a separate field of study focused on
curriculum design and development. This field continues to evolve and grow in response to
changes in educational practices and societal needs.
Peter Ramus was one if the earliest theorists to propose that curriculum
a. is not necessary in schools
b. is complex and interrelated
c. is a map of knowledge
d. is always constructivist
Peter Ramus was a 16th-century French philosopher and educational reformer who is known
for his work on the organization of knowledge. He proposed that knowledge should be
organized into a clear and structured system, much like a map, and that this system should
form the basis of the curriculum taught in schools. He believed that by presenting
knowledge in a logical and ordered way, students would be able to learn more effectively
and efficiently. This approach to curriculum design has influenced educational thinking for
centuries and is still relevant today.
The four curriculum approaches and perspectives studied in the prescribed textbook are:
a. constructivism, interpretivism, critical and structuralism
b. constructivism, critical, ideological and ontological
c. critical, post-structuralism, interpretivist and modernist
d. positivist, interpretivist, critical and post-structuralism
