Steps to design a Curriculum

Design a Curriculum:

The term curriculum comes from the Latin currier, which means "to run" or "proceed" and refers to the experiences that shape children as they grow to mature adults. The term curriculum refers to the academic content or syllabus and lessons taught in a school or educational institution or in a specific course or program.

Step 1 

Begin the design process by establishing our curriculum principles. The first step of curriculum principles should reflect our school’s values, context, pedagogical approaches, and needs. We should be able to explain the purpose or intent of our curriculum. 

Step 2 

After clarifying our principles and purpose, we should set out your pupil entitlement. The pupil entitlement should explain how we intend to enrich the curriculum with educational visits, extracurricular activities and specific experiences. 

Step 3 

We will need to arrange our curriculum content into a range of engaging themes and projects. Make strategic decisions about what our curriculum covers, how it interconnects, and in how much depth lessons are taught to achieve. These choices and decisions create our school’s curriculum structure or long-term plan. 

Step 4 

After organizing our plans, our teachers need to plan the detail of how they will deliver each project. 

Step 5 

We need to identify the resources required to bring our curriculum to life and enhance its coherence. A good curriculum needs high-quality resources. These include human resources, practical equipment, community partners, environments, and teaching resources. 

Step 6

We now have an established curriculum. The next step is to regularly review its impact on teaching and learning and to make any adaptations or changes.

NASA Posts Amazing Picture Of Space-Grown Flower

 NASA Posts Amazing Picture Of Space-Grown Flower NASA shared a picture of the zinnia plant, cultivated on the International Space Station  in 2015 . The goal was to find out how plants would grow in space.  According to a NASA report; Scientists have been studying plants in space since the 1970s, but this particular experiment was started on the  @ISS  in 2015 by NASA astronaut Kjell Lindgren. Kjell Lindgren, a NASA astronaut, initiated the experiment to observe how vegetation would grow in space since it would benefit humanity. During their lengthy space missions, the astronauts can eat a lot of food from this. Area for plant cultivation decreasing as the population increases day by day so there is a need to discover new spaces where the life of humans and plants could be possible.  Reference:  https://www.instagram.com/p/CtZxuGjSorR/?utm_source=ig_embed&ig_rid=b52ed06e-d24b-4db1-a0cf-2c004df423e1

Plant Genome Editing by CRISPR-Cas System

Image
  Plant Genome Editing by CRISPR-Cas System Introduction: The CRISPR-Cas system is a prokaryotic immune system that confers resistance to foreign genetic elements such as those present within plasmids and phages and provides a form of acquired immunity. RNA harboring the spacer sequence helps Cas(CRISPR-associated) proteins recognize and cut foreign pathogenic DNA. Genome editing is a way of making specific changes to the DNA of a cell or organism. An enzyme cuts the DNA at a specific sequence, and when this is repaired by the cell a change or 'edit' is made to the sequence.Genome editing in plants has been made much easier with the recently developed CRISPR/Cas9 system because of its simplicity and versatility. History: CRISPR: An Adaptive Immune System.CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeat) sequences were initially discovered in the E. coli genome in 1987, but their function as a safeguard against bacteriophages was not elucidated until 2007.Proto

Use of Magnetic field for seed germination

Use of Magnetic field technique for seed germination  Seed germination Seed “independent structure” responsible for next generation of plants,  maintaining the germplasm, improving species diversity and production capacity.  Germination involves those processes which initiate with the uptake of water by the inactive dry seed and conclude with the development of the embryonic axis. The most important factors for germination include water, temperature, oxygen, and light.  Need of seed germination technique: Secure food to adopt new technologies 1) Improve grain yield and  2) germination rate by maintaining the crop quality. 3) To reduced amount of pesticides. 4) Low genetic deviation in seeds. Magnetic field (MF): Magnetic Field is the region around a magnetic material or a moving electric charge within which the force of magnetism acts.  The area around a magnet, where the force that is capable of magnetizing surrounding body exist is called a magnetic field. Impact of seed germination
