One of the curriculum mentioned; to gain the basic skills, habits, and attitudes necessary to function in the workplace and to adapt to living within contemporary society.is eerily reverberating as I think in today's economy this holds true more than ever.

The first principle for developing culture and community-based curriculum is that the curriculum be locally-based so that the local community "owns" the curriculum. The second principle is that the curriculum or educational system be based on the world view and values of a particular community.

why curiculum must related with the culture?

i think the best to gain is adapt to living within contemporary society. when we can achieve that ability, mean that we can also comunicate fluently with other. and when we can comunicate we also can learn value in that society

curriculum in school need to be adjusted with social-culture in area where the school located. because it is not easy, especially for kid, to adapt with new environment

Are we talking about lecturers here? Setting up the curriculums for their students who have selected their papers as their major??

I never thought there are so many concepts behind our university curriculum. I always thought our lecturers just made up these assignments to torture us and there's really no meaning behind them! But I guess I am wrong!

I admire those lecturers who make the effort of following through the six cultures of curriculum you have shared here. It's amazing how when one is willing the result can be so great!

I am amazed by the idea and the information you have gathered on the six cultures of curriculum. I am a lecturer in German Education and I will start my new semester year using the above mentioned ideas to design my curriculum!

What a great read! I hope you don't mind me print out this article so I can constantly remind myself when teaching my junior highschool kids!!!

Thanks for the great idea and information!

One of the rationales is that a culturally sensitive curriculum will make the learning easier to acquire. Another is that it would not offend the learners or shut down the learning. Another is that culturally sensitive learning is respectful. Excellent info! That's what got me pass all my exams.

The second principle is that the curriculum or educational system be based on the world view and values of a particular I see Your articles is so great and useful for me, thanks for this great work and informative read Thanks for sharing this information. It took a while to understand buy was an interesting read.

At the University of Illinois, Chicago, an art professor posed a series of questions to his colleagues about ways they could improve their department. The overwhelming response was to install a curricular culture. The idea is to establish a foundation for learning in effort to create a long term culture that facilitates the learning process.

I have long been a proponent of teaching more skills to our young people on how to handle credit and what it can mean to their future. I hope more schools and universities will consider adding a financial course to their curriculum. In the 1960's we were taught how to balance a check book, write a check and make a budget. After the crisis we have gone through, I would like to see this subject become mandatory at some level of schooling. I am a mortgage underwriter from the "old school" and even as I was forced to sign loans under the loose guidelines we had these last many years, I could have made a list, daily, of the loans that would fail. It's a sad thought to look back on.

The concepts might be western centric but then if explained and debated more openly , can have larger acceptance in the masses !

Curriculum must be based on numerous cultures including local, national and global cultures. This will makes learning more interesting and fun. I must be also often revised and kept updated to latest happenings.

I agree with you Joseph about Six Cultures of Curriculum. As a design, curriculum implementation and determine educational outcomes. Culture became one of the foundation in building the curriculum for community life, with all its characteristics and its cultural richness pattern affects the relationship between members of society.

thx. nice site

This is really informative

I think curriculum related culture is much better idea. Its important for every student nowadays to more of their culture. It's because in this computer era, it seems that it was completely neglected by everyone. Its so nice to know that every child knows their norms, not just technology related thing.

true: training for work is survival. Most of the times, it is when a person undergoes training, he experiences the weight of pressure for being accepted or rejected. Sometimes, this is when a person experiences the first "deep cut" once rejected.

We got Joseph's Cultures of curriculum in our Uni library and to be frank I couldn't get past the first quarter. Never in my life have I laid my eyes on such a dull book :P I'm sure it's good but it's so boooring!

Great article and I feel a lot of people don't take the time out to learn about other cultures and other ways of life. It's always nice to go to a different country and people watch and just see how other cultures interact with each other.

Every country is unique in a certain way. And to understand the culture of a country you must have experienced this culture. Culture is something that is so extent, that in order to opinion about it you need to be very focused. For example, by comparing one specific aspect of the culture with the culture you know best – that of you native country.

One of the rationales is that a culturally sensitive curriculum will make the learning easier to acquire. Another is that it would not offend the learners or shut down the learning. Another is that culturally sensitive learning is respectful. Excellent info! That's what got me pass all my exams.

As with anything when trying to communicate to humans - being culturally sensitive is extremely helpful (if not a must). Because many things can go wrong, many things can be said (in a negative light) if you're not culturally sensitive enough to know what to do and not to do.

And while we may become more diverse culturally speaking, we still need to be mindful of the culture of our coworkers. Until we can all establish a common culture (ie - American, British etc) to run by.

I must say that this is a very original and inspiring take on education and one which we as teachers can all learn a lot from. I really enjoy reading your blog.

It must be a tough role setting up a whole new curriculum which identifies with everybody.

Excelling in today's creative field requires more than being simply creative. Breaking the borders with new innovations is what's really going to put you ahead of the pack.

This is great addition to the curriculum. Student should also study different culture. They may use that in the near future.

Culture became one of the foundation in building the curriculum for community life. Thanks for sharing. :D

Thanks for thsi great sharing.

nice post thanks for sharing. i like it.Yes. You said that you turned to art out of fear, and as a way to help yourself, but had you had any experience with drawing or painting, or looking at art that might have been an antecedent? Of course, your father was an art historian.

The literature on how to measure the significance of public goods problems in an economy, and to identify the best remedies. These debates are highly relevant to political arguments about the role of markets in the economy. Thanks.

Curriculum is an activity and Culture is a passive activity means our beliefs, morals, law, custom and so many things it includes. Both are interrelated or we can say that these are the two sides of coin. One is not enough to develop personality second one is also needed in the same amount to develop personality.

For sound reproduction without lots of frills and buttons, this has proved an excellent choice. I am very pleased with the item.
