From Consultation and Collaboration to Consensus: Introducing an Alternative Model of Curriculum Development
Brown Wilson, Christine; Slade, Christine
International Journal for Academic Development, v25 n2 p189-194 2020
Scholarly discourses call for curriculum development to be democratic and collaborative, include multiple stakeholders' perspectives, and aligned to values that promote the professional, social, and public good. Despite this, curriculum development remains an internal process: a situation challenged by a greater emphasis on employability. This paper reflects on a consensus model of curriculum development in health professions, based on constructivist principles, where internal and external stakeholders' voices were incorporated and valued. A framework is presented to support a consensus model of curriculum development that is more likely to represent the socio-political context in which the future graduate may be employed.
