Biology and Geology Curriculum Innovation: Teachers View on Curriculum and the main principles for the future curriculum development
2019
Abstract
The Czech national curriculum defining the main principles, goals and outcomes for all educational stages in the Czech Republic is currently undergoing revision of all learning areas including science. We present a research of in-service teachers' and researchers' (n = 112) experience and needs connected to biology and geology curriculum. 88 teachers from different stages mostly want small or none changes.
Some appreciate the freedom given by current curriculum, others would prefer detailed specificationsof the content and time frame. Teachers from different schools have different views.
