Curriculum Change Plan Chart
Subject Area Targeted:
We are targeting Social Studies as a curriculum change. This change is designed to follow through the elementary levels through high school, to be integrated not just in a factual approach, but to reflect newer ideas surrounding critical thinking, vetting of sources, use of electronic data, and events that have occurred in the era of globalization.
Specific to this is the issue surrounding globalization. We must, in fact, prepare the study of today to be the global leader of tomorrow. Globalization, or the idea that there is increased cooperation (economic, political, social and cultural) between nations, contributes immensely to the idea of diversity management within the public and private sectors. This should not be surprising, since with the removal of trade barriers, organizational culture and the movement of employees and stakeholder expectations change as well. Global societies, thus global public management, is more pluralistic as well as diverse. One effect of this is that diversification within organization combined with globalization causes fewer boundaries when hiring. New cultural and ethnic demographics and psychographics also encourage this by adding additional variables into the equation. In fact, research suggests that each sub-group (gender, lifestyle, ethnicity, etc.) be placed more into a cultural inclusion model rather than considered part of an affirmative action paradigm (Fine, M., et al., 1990).
The literacy standards within the new curriculum should target:
Key ideas in the modern world
A way to reinvent the past as relevant to the future
Integration of data in primary sources
Movement from rote to synthesis and analysis of big ideas
Themes instead of micro-facts
Encourage and incorporate writing in all grades (Barge, 2011)
In addition, the curriculum must revolve around the importance of studying the social sciences in order to promote civic competency. Within the school curriculum, social studies provides a more coordinate and systematic study of multi-disciplinary activities and contexts, as well as a merging of the humanities, mathematics...
Negative feedbacks and criticisms cannot be avoided at this point, especially upon knowing that it is necessary for them to undergo training on how this program will be implemented, including its advantages for them as teachers. Educators, especially those who have been practicing the profession for a long time have a greater tendency to abhor going through the learning process once more.

In this system, in which we must increasingly compete for students and research dollars and create new sources of funding, international university rankings are the utmost importance." (Probert, 2006) it is emphasized in this report that these changes are of great significance toward ensuring "greater strategic capacity within the Faculty." Probert (2006) relates two key changes which have been proposed and states them as follows: 1) the reduction in number
In the example provided, the teacher could explain that homework assignments will allow them to learn more about how life in Ancient Greece and Rome influenced modern customs and practices, and the purpose of homework assignments is to break the information they are learning into smaller chunks so they do not have to memorize or learn too much information at once, which might become overwhelming. Knowing this, students are more

Implementing a private Cloud-based ILS will give each department real-time availability of data from both the ECM and EKM systems, tailored to the specific roles through the use of customizable ILS-based interfaces.

This is essential
