Unit seven was the final unit for this curriculum module. This unit is about inclusive curriculum and assessment. Our tutor first made us choose activities that best suite our learning style and assigned us some tasks. After the activity, she introduced us to the main topic of this unit. From her strategy, I learned that this is how we must cater the needs of each student as a teacher. To meet the needs of today's diverse learners, it is critical to have an inclusive classroom and an inclusive education. With inclusive education in the school, students with special needs will have more opportunities and equal rights in their education. This also helps them avoid being dependent on others and allows them to stand on their own two feet. If a teacher engages his or her students in the classroom, it indicates that he or she is providing an inclusive learning environment for his or her students.

Unlike in many other models, the four domains of curriculum development mentioned above are interconnected. This concept piqued m...

The four bases are nature of learning and learning styles, social forces, human development, and nature of knowledge. This unit mainly talks about the theories of learning and bases of curriculum that gives a description on how curriculum developers should design a curriculum according to the needs of a child. I have come to know that different students have different learning style which we as a teacher need to be mindful about, so that we can cater to the needs of different students. There are ten contemporary social forces that influence curriculum planning and innovation. We worked in groups to discuss those ten social fo...
