Plan, Proposal, Reflective piece

This topic focuses on the major elements of curriculum design and development and their interrelationships ie, intent, context, content, teaching and learning, assessment and evaluation. It provides a theoretical and

conceptual framework for understanding the symbiotic nature of clinical education. There is a particular focus on the relationship between curriculum outcomes, context and content and, in turn, the relationship between content,

teaching and learning and assessment. The importance of ongoing monitoring and evaluation in the curriculum design and development process is considered. Students examine their own roles and responsibilities in curriculum

design and development and analyse how they can participate in curriculum decision-making and change. Students apply these concepts and theoretical frameworks in a project focusing on their own clinical context and present their

findings to others enrolled in the topic

The aim of this topic is to provide you with knowledge and skills to analyse, review, organise and participate in decision-making in relation to curricula in clinical education. You will develop a proposal for curriculum change in your workplace, through research and consultation.

On completion of this topic you will be expected to be able to:

1. Apply knowledge of the key concepts, educational contexts and models in curriculum design and development
2. Analyse, critique, and make recommendations about curricula
3. Develop a proposal for a curriculum project in the workplace through research and consultation
4. Critically reflect on your learnings contextualised to curriculum as a professional and educator through constructive discussion and debate with fellow students and colleagues
