Psychological Determinant

Psychologiocal

• psychology is the unifying element in the learning process.

• For example John Dewey, a renowned educationist acknowledges that

psychology is the understanding of how the individual learner

interacts with objects and persons in the environment. The quality of

this interaction determines the amount and type of learning.

• The relationship between psychological foundations and curriculum

has been analyzed by the questions given below:

• Does the physiological development of the learner influence the

curriculum?

• Does the age of the learner influence the curriculum?

• Does the mental development of the leaner affect the curriculum

Psychological Determinant

• There is only one answer for all these questions that is “YES”

• In brief, psychology is concerned with a basic question – How do

people Learn?

• We are now formulating educational objectives in terms of the

leaner’s behavioral changes is just one indication of how psychology is

influencing educational thought and practice.

• Selection of curriculum content and its organization are based on

various theories of psychology such as the laws of learning , theories

of interest and attention, transfer of learning, growth and

development of physic and mental, intelligence, creativity and

personality development

Sociological Determinants

Sociological

• Society is a part of student’s life. Since school exists within a given society

and the products of the school i.e students go back to the society and

makes the latter an inevitable determinant of curriculum.

• “The school” according to John Dewey, “must become the child’s habitant

to be a miniature community, and embryonic society”. Education is process

that takes place in society for society and by society.

• There are many aspects of society that need consideration in curriculum

development. These include:-

a)Societal change

b)Transmission of culture

c) Social problem as issue

Political Determinant

Political

curriculum development in schools is determined as much by political considerations as by purely educational principles. Such a reminder might make class teachers more effective in presenting their views towards the initiators of education policy. The experience of the Sheffield History Curriculum Group (SHCG) in encouraging a number of innovatory projects provides the fieldwork data linked to specific developments in schools. One of the fundamental problems in trying to design an appropriate curriculum is that there is often only limited agreement on what should be covered

Political Determinant

Culture & Economic Determinants

The implementation of a

curriculum entails several actions including provision of physical facilities, development of

learning materials and recruitment of untrained teachers. All these provisions involve recurring

costs. These costs are borne by the government, and also by the community and other institutions.

The planners always weigh the cost of providing certain learning opportunities. The alternative

modes of providing educational opportunity have varying cost

Acurriculumplannerhastoascertainwhetherthecommunityaroundtheschool will be able to bear the

expenses of proposed curriculum. In spite of the state’s support at all the levels of education, the

community too has to bear certain expenses of education. It is the community which will send its

children to the school. If the financial condition of the society is not sound enough to share the

cost of education. it will not be in a position to serve its people
