A STUDY ON THE CURRICULUM RELATED PROBLEMS OF TEXTILE VOCATIONAL EDUCATION IN BANGLADESH (Pages : 83 - 86)
M. HOSSAIN, A. KHALIFA AND A.K.M.F. AZADStudies were conducted on the Curriculum related Problems of Textile Vocational Education in Bangladesh with the major objectives of knowing the curricular status and its operational limitations. The research works were conducted through a questionnaire involving stakeholders including instructors, students and managers. The results obtained from the studies indicated that curricular status of the education in terms of index was about 30 percent, while the Asian standard 53 percent. The causes for such a poor situation were mostly related to the non-modular curriculum development and monitoring process. The major recommendations suggested by the respondents were to strengthen teaching, language course, laboratories and workshops. The Theory and Practical class ratios should be formulated and maintained. The syllabus of the core subject credits should be revised immediately. The curriculum should be in module system as per needed competency for respective employers. There should be one Curriculum Director controlling curricular operations and audio-visual teaching aids, monitoring, evaluation and job placement activities.Download
