Types of Curriculum
1. Recommended Curriculum
 This type of curriculum stems from what experts in education suggest.
Recommended curriculum can come from a variety of different sources,
including nationally recognized researchers, policy makers and legislators,
and others. It focuses on the content, skill sets and tools educators should
prioritize in the classroom.

2. Written Curriculum
 A written curriculum is what is formally put down in writing and documented
for teaching. These materials can include an educator’s instruction
documents, films, text and other materials they need. These materials come
from the larger school district or the school itself. Often, they contract or
employ a curriculum specialist to develop a plan that meets specific goals and
objectives.

3. Taught Curriculum
 This type of curriculum refers to how teachers actually teach. This is a less
predictable and less standardized type of curriculum because how an
educator delivers material can vary from one to the next. It can also
change based on the types of tools a teacher has at their disposal. This
can include experiments, demonstrations and other types of engagement
through group work and hands-on activities.

4. Supported Curriculum
 A supported curriculum involves the additional tools, resources and learning
experiences found in and outside a classroom. These include textbooks, field
trips, software and technology, in addition to other innovative new techniques
to engage students. Teachers and other individuals involved with the course
are also a component of the supported curriculum.

5. Assess Curriculum
 An assessed curriculum is also known as a tested curriculum. It refers to
quizzes, tests and other kinds of methods to measure students’ success. This
can encompass a number of different assessment techniques, including
presentations, a portfolio, a demonstration as well as state and federal
standardized tests.
6. Learn Curriculum
 A learned curriculum refers to what students walk away with from a course.
This includes the subject matter and knowledge they learned from a course,
but it can also include additional changes in attitude and emotional wellbeing.
Teachers need to shrink the gap between what they expect students to learn
and what students actually do learn.

7. Hidden Curriculum
 A hidden curriculum is not planned, but it has a significant impact on what
students learn. This type of curriculum is not always communicated or
formally written down and includes implicit rules, unmentioned expectations,
and the norms and values of a culture.
