Abstract
Curriculum development is the process of developing a coherent sequence of learning situations, together with appropriate materials, the implementation of which has the potential to bring about intended change in learners’ knowledge. The term knowledge may be understood and interpreted quite differently by various parties such as decision makers, curriculum project team members, subject matter specialists, researchers, teachers, students, and their parents. This is one reason why curriculum development may lead to tensions between some of these parties.
