7. Examples of Subject-centered Design
Subject
design
Oldest and so far
the most familiar
design for
teachers, parents
and other laymen
It is easy to
deliver
Sometimes learning
is so
compartmentalized
8. DISCIPLINE DESIGN
Focuses on the academic discipline
Often used in college, but not in
elementary and secondary levels.
9. CORRELATION DESIGN
Comes fro a core,
correlated
curriculum design
that links separate
subject designs in
order to reduce
fragmentation
Subjects are related to
one another but each
subject maintains its
identity
10. Broad Field Design
A variation of the subject-centered design
Made to prevent compartmentalization of
subjects and integrate the contents that are
related to each other
