MAIN BODY
Practices related to curriculum development
California state has been taken for consideration which is one of the dense populated states
and reason behind selecting this state is high number of students studying in K-12 classes.
According to 2018 census report, 72 % of population belongs to white colour, approximately
14% Asians and remaining per cent from various races (Brown & Thompson, 2018). Total of
100 million population out of 300 million is living under minority tag which can be imply their
millions of students are studying but are not getting proper education or healthcare due to
minority status. So this program will motivate and attract them to take science as an option due
to its intriguing and mesmerising concepts. California State Board of Education manages and
monitors the curriculum of students studying in K-12 sections (Goode, Hegarty & Levy, 2018) .
Different practices adopted while setting curriculum is given below,
 Self-evaluation of current curriculum was done by teachers and experts of science
subjects so that proper evaluation of it would be conducted with the aim of finding
learning gapes, innovating techniques etc
 All the plan and strategies is evaluated by experts and students studying the same sector
to find out their view and perception of new learning techniques (Romiszowski, 2016).
 Try to produce the best combination of subjected centred, learner centred and problem
centred design
Specific discipline and grade level(s) for which the pilot curriculum will be developed
Curriculum
Curriculum refers to a process of learning knowledge and set of activities in the specific
subject area from teachers and other coordinators with the aim of gaining depth information or
knowledge relate to it (Ertmer, Quinn & Glazewski, 2019). Standard curriculum was mainly
focuses on books and literature produced and set by the local government but in the recent era,
more focus is given to an advanced curriculum in which students would be able to understand
any particular topic with the help of materials, task, discussions with students etc so that proper
knowledge and practical knowledge would be gained by them. Overall curriculum is set by local
