Translation

カリキュラム / 教育課程 / 学習計画

Meaning

A curriculum is the complete set of courses, subjects, and learning experiences offered or required in a school, university program, or educational system. While a 'syllabus' covers one course, a 'curriculum' covers everything in a program. 'Curriculum' has an irregular Latin plural: 'curricula'. However, 'curriculums' is also used informally and widely accepted. Japanese learners will recognize 'カリキュラム' from Japanese education — it is used with the same meaning.

Examples

• 新しいカリキュラムには科学の授業が含まれるようになった。

• 学校はカリキュラムを定期的に見直す必要がある。
  Schools need to review their curriculum regularly.
