There are many variations in the way the curriculum is taught and learned (Bilbao et al., 2008). The teacher becomes a facilitator and a developer of curriculum (Zins, 2010). There is a consensus that it is the teacher’s role to shape the curriculum and to support learning in it. Teachers need to be knowledgeable about the curriculum and how it is used (Bilbao et al., 2008; Marshall, 2002).

There are several aspects of the curriculum that are important to the teacher. According to the teacher’s needs assessment, the teacher determines the purpose of the curriculum, identifies the curriculum contents, and selects methods to teach the curriculum and facilitate the learning process.

The teachers and learners may identify and include “competencies” that describe the learning outcomes that are expected to be achieved by the learners. The curriculum planning should start with identifying the state and local education agency, federal, state, and local polices that impact the schools. It is important to understand what the school and the district currently are doing.
A teacher should also know the school and district policies. The teacher needs to decide what he/she is planning to teach. The process of curriculum development can be initiated with an inquiry, a survey or analysis of the needs assessment of the students, the community, and the school. The needs assessment should include a focus on how the students learn best, how the community wants to be involved, and how the school wants to be359ba680
