Curriculum Content

Curriculum content refers to the total body of knowledge, skills, attitudes and values that students are exposed to through their learning experiences. These learning experiences can take place both inside and outside of the classroom, and involve interactions between students and their environment. Learning experiences are activities performed by students themselves for the purpose of achieving learning objectives, rather than teaching methods employed by teachers. When selecting curriculum content, it is important to consider criteria like validity, ensuring the content promotes intended outcomes and is up-to-date, self-sufficiency in allowing students opportunities to experiment and problem-solve, and significance in developing skills, processes and attitudes to solve societal problems while being culturally sensitive.

learner for the purpose of achieving some important learning objectives

There are various types of activities that can be performed by the learners in the study of various school
subjects to enhance learning. There are also various activities which teachers perform as they teach
learners, but then, learning experiences are not what the teachers do, it is not the teacher methodology,
but those activities performed by the learners themselves.
