Correct Answer - Option 4 : I, II and III only
Stakeholders in curriculum designing:
Curriculum Experts- Curriculum specialists are teacher-leaders who, due to their experience and success in the classroom, serve as collaborators and guides for classroom teachers to plan lessons, analyze student performance, model instruction, support differentiation, and so much more. The role can vary slightly from school to school and district to district, but there are some components of the role that are tried and true wherever you are. The curriculum specialist serves as a building leader and thus will require skills beyond those of a classroom teacher to effectively meet the responsibilities of the job.
Boards of Education- The applicability of that information in real-life situations is not always understood by the students though. With the student-teacher ratio being much higher, the individual attention for the student is limited; the focus is more on year-end examinations. Under Indian boards, students are guided to choose a subject stream (Science, Commerce, Arts) after the 10th standard, but some schools do give the students some flexibility with subject choice. In these circumstances, students of a school that imbibes alternative learning mechanisms are bound to do better than the others.
Professional staff- Without a doubt, the most important person in the curriculum implementation process is the teacher. With their knowledge, experiences, and competencies, teachers are central to any curriculum development effort. Better teachers support better learning because they are most knowledgeable about the practice of teaching and are responsible for introducing the curriculum in the classroom. If another party has already developed the curriculum, the teachers have to make an effort to know and understand it. So, teachers should be involved in curriculum development.
Hence, the correct answer is Option 4.
