, QUESTION 1: Curriculum approaches Total Marks: 15 Task description: Different approaches to
curriculum are crucial for sound curriculum implementation for several reasons. These
approaches allow teachers to cater to learners' diverse learning needs, provide flexibility and
adaptability in teaching methods and content delivery, and provide a comprehensive approach
to education. Referring to the learner-centred approach of Lawrence Stenhouse and the
behavioural approach of John Bobbitt, analyse and compare their ideas in terms of: 1.1 The
theoretical foundations of the approaches. (5) 1.2 The practical implications for teachers. (5)
1.3 The practical implications for learners. (5) NB: (i) Work copied directly from the handbook
without citations will be penalized. (ii) You are encouraged to write in your own words to
show your understanding of the approaches to the curriculum. (iii) You are also
encouraged to use other sources and cite these to give credit to the original authors.
(iv) Proofread your work for clarity, coherence, and grammatical accuracy. (v) Length: ONE-
TWO PAGES.




Curriculum Approaches: A Comparative Analysis

Curriculum approaches are essential for effective teaching and learning, as they influence how
content is delivered and how learners engage with knowledge. Two notable curriculum
approaches are the learner-centred approach by Lawrence Stenhouse and the behavioural
approach by John Bobbitt. This analysis compares their theoretical foundations, practical
implications for teachers, and practical implications for learners.



1.1 Theoretical Foundations of the Approaches (5 marks)

Stenhouse’s Learner-Centred Approach:

Lawrence Stenhouse advocated for a process-oriented curriculum that emphasizes active
learning and inquiry-based education. His approach is rooted in constructivist theories, where
learners construct knowledge through experience and exploration. He believed that education
should be dynamic, flexible, and adaptable to the needs of learners rather than a rigid set of
objectives. His approach encourages teachers to act as facilitators rather than mere
transmitters of knowledge.
