Quality+Curriculum

=Quality Curriculum = Quality curriculum is responsive to student readiness, needs, and interest, while clearly reflecting the essential understandings, knowledge and skills they need to succeed.


 * To begin with the end in mind means to start with a clear understanding of your destination. **
 * It means to know where you’re going so that you better understand where you are now so that the steps you take are always in the right direction. **Covey, S. R., (1989). //The 7 habits of highly effective people//. New York, New York: Fireside
