Përdorimi dhe zbatimi i progremeve mësimore të hartuara në bazë të kurrikulës së bazuar në kompetenca

Abstract

The development of competency-based curricula and its implementation is an actual topic, particularly in recent researches in Kosovo. Although the curricular reform of pre university education in the Republic of Kosovo began eight years ago, its complete extent in curricula has not yet been implemented; its implementation has not been extended to all classroom settings. This paper outlines teachers' opinions on the structure and contents of new curricula based on competence-based curricula, and their implementation in the first period of the 2016/2017 school year. It is derived from an expanded report prepared for Ministry of Education, Science, and Technology, and presents a summary of the data provided through a five-step assessment instrument, administered by 395 1st, 6th, and 10th grade teachers from 72 schools involved in implementing the new curriculum. The results show that the new curriculum programs have generally met the expectations of teachers during the piloting of the new curriculum. These programs have a clear and understandable content structure and have begun to be implemented by the class teachers to which they apply. Its findings show that at the initial stage of its implementation, the new curricula was characterized with different challenges that differ depending on the specifics of the subjects and the specifics of the schools where the new programs are being implemented. The lack of specific methodological guidelines for implementing the new curricula and the lack of readiness towards it was a great challenge. However, we will provide guidelines for finalizing the curriculum for these classes, support for implementing it, and guidelines for developing new curriculum for other classrooms based on the perspective of the influence they have in extending the implementation of the new curriculum at national level.
