Synopsis "Curriculum Development"

Education is concerned with the transmission of knowledge. It is always a deliberate attempt to modify the individual for the better or in terms of what is thought to be desirable. It would be a bad mistake, however, to view this knowledge only in terms of curriculum content; because education transmits other knowledge as well. But it would seem fair to claim that education aims to overcome ignorance. He would also appear that education advocates the principle that it is better to have knowledge than to be ignorant. In other words it is better to be Socrates dissatisfied than a pig satisfied. It is argued that the modern defective curriculum content creates satisfied pigs and increases-ignorance than to overcome it. Therefore, Helvetius states that "Children are born ignorant, not stupid." It is education that makes them stupid. So far as defective curriculum is concerned he is essentially correct.
