[PAEE] Writing Curriculum

[John Jose]

Hi everyone, 

 

An organization I provide env. ed. programming for has asked me to write-up
curricula for programs I provide for them. When developing a program, I
generate an outline that includes the following: 

 

*    Program summary

 

*    Program objectives/goals

 

*    An outline of what the presentation will cover, and a more detailed
"script" 

 

*    A list of supporting equip, supplies and props needed

 

*    For programs with multiple components, a detailed time frame 

 

*    Some means of evaluating the program/receiving feedback 

 

My question is, does incorporating the aforementioned into a written
document constitute what is considered to be env. ed. curriculum? From the
list above, is there something I need to add or is there anything that I
should leave out? 

 

In looking at some of the resources I have (PLT, WILD Aquatic, etc.) I see
different levels of complexity in the curricula they provide. 

 

Any feedback on and/or examples of what is considered to be good env. ed.
curricula would be greatly appreciated. I understand the basic concept and
purpose, I'm just looking for some specifics. 

 

Thanks in advance,
