A preview of teaching.: Curricula and courses of study. Curricula and courses of study — the basic materials of instruction in the schools — are planned with reference to the developing physical, mental, and social needs of the pupils. A curriculum consists of those studies and activities which, considered as a group, contribute to a definite purpose. For example, the commercial curriculum comprises those studies and activities which prepare for commercial work; the home-economics curriculum, for work related to the home; and the college-preparatory curriculum, for entrance to college.

Abstract

Curricula and courses of study — the basic materials of instruction in the schools — are planned with reference to the developing physical, mental, and social needs of the pupils. A curriculum consists of those studies and activities which, considered as a group, contribute to a definite purpose. For example, the commercial curriculum comprises those studies and activities which prepare for commercial work; the home-economics curriculum, for work related to the home; and the college-preparatory curriculum, for entrance to college.
