Managing The Curriculum

Abstract

This paper describes general guidelines for managing curriculum. Managing a curriculum change is a complex problem. There are two frameworks supporting the process. The first is a learning framework centered on how students learn, the second is a conceptual framework enabling the detailed design of learning activities, which implies a change in attitudes towards teaching. The last step is implementing the curriculum. We think that these guidelines may help schools or universities manage their own change process. Construction management education needs a curriculum model that will help school or university to achieve and maintain relevant construction management programs. This paper describes a curriculum model that integrates curriculum development, instructional design, and program evaluation.
