To consider the influence of views of knowledge on a part of a programme curriculum


Aim

To consider the influence of views of knowledge on a part of a programme curriculum.


Reflection

This is a potentially large activity which needs to be made specific to keep it within bounds.  We suggest that you examine the documentation for a particular degree programme.

Consider, how is knowledge viewed? To what extent is it seen as an established body of subject content and skills to be transferred to learners, and to what extent is knowledge seen as something to be created through experiential engagement in tasks and activities?  Can you see opportunities for synergies between these approaches?

Is this view of knowledge consistent with the aims and values of the discipline or profession?
