Download or read book Basic Principles of Curriculum and Instruction written by Ralph W. Tyler and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2013-08-09 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The acclaimed classic shows educators how to set classroom objectives, select learning experiences, organize instruction, and evaluate progress. In 1949, a small book had a big impact on education. In just over one hundred pages, Ralph W. Tyler presented the concept that curriculum should be dynamic, a program under constant evaluation and revision. Curriculum had always been thought of as a static, set program, and in an era preoccupied with student testing, he offered the innovative idea that teachers and administrators should spend as much time evaluating their plans as they do assessing their students. Since then, Basic Principles of Curriculum and Instruction has been a standard reference for anyone working with curriculum development. Although not a strict how-to guide, the book shows how educators can critically approach curriculum planning, studying progress and retooling when needed. Its four sections focus on setting objectives, selecting learning experiences, organizing instruction, and evaluating progress. Readers will come away with a firm understanding of how to formulate educational objectives and how to analyze and adjust their plans so that students meet the objectives. Tyler also explains that curriculum planning is a continuous, cyclical process, an instrument of education that needs to be fine-tuned. This emphasis on thoughtful evaluation has kept Basic Principles of Curriculum and Instruction a relevant, trusted companion for over sixty years. And with school districts across the nation working feverishly to align their curriculum with Common Core standards, Tyler’s straightforward recommendations are sound and effective tools for educators working to create a curriculum that integrates national objectives with their students’ needs. Praise for Basic Principles of Curriculum and Instruction “Tyler addresses the essential purposes of teaching in a way that still has relevance for contemporary students of education, and communicates to them how important and timeless the quality of the pupil-teacher interaction actually is.” —Times Higher Education (UK)

This book was released on 2016-04-07 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this handbook is to assist high school students and college freshmen to make objective career decisions, and choose appropriate courses and training towards the achievement of their career goals. According to Frank Parsons (1854-1908), who was known as the father of vocational counselling, ideal career choices are based on matching personal traits (aptitude, abilities, resources, personality) with job factors (wages, environment etc.) to produce the best of the trait/factor theory of career development. In order to make decisions toward appropriate career choice, students need career information, which may include self-assessment tools, to help them develop their self-awareness, opportunity awareness and career education which students receive in high school. The curriculum in high school includes career planning, where students are given a wealth of information about career and college planning. School counsellors assist high school students in setting goals, researching options, and long range career and college planning. This book offers a simple and practical self-assessment tool to help students match their personality characteristics to occupations and make appropriate career and training decisions. Students would be able to take courses that would lead them towards their career goals. Parents would also benefit from this book, and would be able to guide their children in making good career decisions.

Download or read book Guidance in Secondary Schools written by Cathy Howieson and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this study was to consider the extent to which guidance provision in secondary schools in Scotland met the guidance needs of pupils and their parents. The approach taken was to focus on experiences and perceptions of both consumers and providers of guidance, to relate their views to guidance processes, and to judge the situation in project schools against national and regional policies about guidance. A main finding of the research was the extent to which pupils' opinion and experience of guidance was dependent on the attitude and approach of individual guidance teachers. However, it is strongly suggested that the majority of guidance staff would operate more effectively if the conditions within which they work were further developed. Chapters are: (1) Introduction; (2) The research; (3) Profile of school staff; (4) guidance provision in the Project Schools (1993/94); (5) The guidance needs of pupils and their parents; (6) Guidance in practice: the teacher perspective; (7) Guidance in practice: the pupil perspective; (8) Guidance in practice: the parent perspective; (9) Careers and the World of Work; and (10) Discussion and issues. Appendices are: (1) Pupil Questionnaires and (2) Parent Questionnaires. (JBJ)
