Disadvantages of discipline oriented curriculum
Answers
Subject-centered curriculum has been around since Ralph Tyler released his book “Basic Principles of Curriculum and Instruction” in 1949. His book became the foundation for the traditional or subject-centered method of learning and is still used in most American public schools. This method focuses on one subject at a time, building on knowledge gained. But this method doesn’t engage the student nor does it try to integrate knowledge gained in different subject areas.
