The Global Concept-Based Curriculum

[MS Word file online download version]

The implementation of a new curriculum requires a considerable amount of work and for many schools knowing where to start and how to progress the development of a new curriculum is a considerable challenge.  Mark Treadwell has produced a scaffold for the curriculum framework based around identifying the core concepts within each of the learning areas as well as each of the competencies.  These have then been unpacked across their developmental levels based on the cognitive development of the learner.  Schools can use this scaffold to identify the contexts they would then apply these concepts within and then identify the content which would underpin the development of understanding around each of the concepts.
