    Abstract

    ‘Curriculum development’ refers to an intentional process or activity directed at (re)designing, developing and implementing curricular interventions in formal or corporate education. Studying this process will embrace at least three phenomena (Goodlad et al., 1979). The first is substantive and has to do with all everyday components of a curriculum (such as goals, subject matter, materials, etc.). The second is socio-political which involves all political and social processes that are involved in curriculum development processes. The third is technical-professional, referring to all processes through which curricula are actually designed, improved, and implemented in practice. In this paper we focus on the technical-professional perspective.
