The ability to teach effectively depends to a large extent on a teacher's ability to act as a curriculum planner for both long and short-term planning. Readings, discussions, and activities are used to combine research and teacher candidates' experience in order to become curriculum planners in broad-based technology through the introduction to concepts, practices, and processes of the curriculum field. Teacher candidates use this knowledge, and their professional and school experiences to articulate models of curriculum, assessment, and evaluation that will guide their practice as curriculum planners. Curriculum Development for Technological Education gives candidates the opportunity to understand curriculum guidelines and how they are translated into curricular possibilities for Grades 9 to 12. Candidates will have an opportunity to explore Activity Based Learning, Authentic Assessment of Technological Education Projects and Safe Operational Procedures in the Technological Education classroom or shop, as well as plan Curriculum Outlines.
