Petch, Beverly
This module on modifying curriculum is 1 in a series of 10 modules written for vocational education teacher education programs. It is designed to prepare the learner to identify the varying learning styles of learners and to modify curriculum by providing alternative techniques for curriculum modification. Introductory materials include the following: a listing of competencies/tasks to be covered, objective, overview of the module, listing of suggested resources, and content/instructional strategies, including prerequisite information. The module consists of two sections. Section 1 provides an overview of the different types of learning styles, several ways to assess these learning styles, and types of classroom teaching modifications that will meet the various learning styles found in the classroom. Section 2 discusses three modification techniques that serve as practical methods to facilitate this process. Each section consists of some or all of these components: introduction, body of lesson, summary and review, and activity worksheets needed to complete the activities that are a part of the section. Suggested responses for activity worksheets are appended. (YLB)
