CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT FOR TEXTILE DIPLOMA EDUCATION IN BANGLADESH (Pages : 56 - 60)
A. KHALIFA, M. HOSSAIN AND A.K.M.F. AZADSeries of researches were conducted on the curriculum and syllabus development for textile diploma education in Bangladesh. It was done through a technical survey, Focus Group Discussion (FGD) and conducting case studies. The aim of the studies were to know the practical curriculum base for Diploma Textile education for the improvement of the graduates and to meet the national demands. The results showed that the practical experiences and skills utilized for curriculum development were very less than the actual requirement. Involvement of textile teachers, specialists and graduate employers in curriculum development and implementation were inadequate. The Theory and Practical class/credits/periods must be specified in the curriculum both as per courses and semesters along with evaluation systems to be followed. It is recommended that the present curriculum for Textile Diploma Education need immediate revision according to employers job specifications and market demand. The syllabus of 3rd and 4th semester of core and additional course credits need to be updated as to increase the credibility of the graduates to the employers and make the graduates career open for higher studies. It is recommended to maintain responsive partnership between Industries and Academic Institutes in the process of developing curriculum and courses/syllabus and thus employment of the graduates.Download
