A Curriculum Analysis Of The Tactics Needed And The Content Area Subjects Addressed By Successful Teachers And Educational Educators Depicts To Show Off Their Skills
Abstract
The Soviet-era secondary school curriculum, which was widely criticised for not equipping students with 21st-century abilities, is now undergoing significant changes in China. This issue was discovered in 2014 when the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) examined secondary education. The OECD panel proposed curricular modifications as a solution to the problem. Beginning with the current year, the proposed improved curriculum has been put into practise. Finding out how teachers at a typical public school felt about the new curriculum revamp was the aim of this study. The factors supporting and impeding the implementation of the new curriculum were also looked at. The researchers thoroughly examined the viewpoints of instructors by using a qualitative research approach. This strategy gives the participants' replies to additional context by using qualitative data from a subset of the participants. Diverse participants provide distinct perspectives to the discussion. Looking more closely at these comments, the qualitative element of the study found that compared to their less experienced peers, senior instructors were less excited about the new content and approach of the upgraded programme. Their enthusiasm for putting the new ideas into practise is, however, dampened by the obstacles presented by a lack of funding for education, diversity, and the sheer quantity of children, limited parental involvement, memory, and pressure from the top.
