Answer to Question #315429 in Psychology for lilly

Question

learners practices in relation to curriculum and resources

Answer 1

The needs of learners should be considered within the contexts of their current physical, social, intellectual, and emotional development, the classroom and school environment, the special nature of their communities. The curriculum is central to students' experience of university. It is a university's primary means of influencing what and how students learn, and it helps shape their attitudes, behaviors and understanding of the world.

A good curriculum also connects teachers from across grade levels and subject areas to look at the big picture of student learning. Teachers can work together to plan a progression of topics that build off of ones that came before and connect across disciplines.
