Curriculum Evaluation and Curriculum Renewal


Copying from Dr. Lesleys paper, Brady and Kennedy (2007, p.220) stated that assessment involves gathering, interpreting, and describing information about student achievement. Evaluation involves making judgement of worth based on the information provided by the assessment process. Measurement is another related term which refers to the systematic classification of observation of student performance. Some approaches to curriculum evaluation and models of curriculum evaluation must be discussed within us. Get discussed about Tylers objectives model, we (me, Nur, and Dyah) identified some strenght and weakness, as follow:

The Strength of that model are :
- Very Simple
- Easy to follow
- Easily Understood

The Weaknesses of that model are :
- No classification
- Ignore value and context
- Not consider outcomes
- Inflexible approach to program evaluation

    I think the problem is in the government itself. We just do as they said, therefore we must vote for that thing, more geography in primary curriculum
