Distinguish between curriculum and hidden curriculum in schools

What will be an ideal response?


The term curriculum refers to a plan of studies that includes the ways in which instructional content is organized and presented at each grade level. Students know when a teacher is prepared for the school day. It is evident in the materials the teacher has assembled and the activities the teacher is ready to implement. The stories teachers tell students about their lives and experiences outside of school are one small part of what may be considered the hidden curriculum: what students learn as they participate in the act of going to school, being part of a classroom community, and relating to their peers and their teachers. The phrase hidden curriculum was coined by the sociologist Phillip Jackson (1968), who described ways in which schools become arenas for socialization and transmit messages to students about how to be in the world. The hidden curriculum, not a part of public documents, includes messages that deal with attitudes, beliefs, values, and behavior.?
