Curriculum Design

 Topic Information Project

The center of this site is the "Topic Design Template" developed to assist in the design of a topic proposal and a topic information booklet. Within the form, links are available for you to explore educational principles or to offer assistance while you design the topic.

The objective of this site is more than an attempt to provide cues to trigger your awareness of basing your topic design on educational principles. It is also designed to save you time, as material collected for the topic design booklet can be stored to be used later as a Calendar submission, or to create a topic information booklet suitable for distribution to enrolled students. This form has been designed to assist you in the design of a topic proposal and to allow you to process the information into a topic booklet.

Follow the instructions and fill in the information as required. By clicking on the appropriate buttons at the end of the form, you will give instructions to the database as to what kind of document it should display for you to print. There are links available for you to explore educational principles or offer assistance while you design the topic.

Crucial issues of assessment, evaluation, inclusive education and teaching strategies are also linked on the left hand side of this page and may be worth exploring before the task of topic design is attempted.
