Curriculum Analysis
Curriculum analysis is a systematic research method for examining the content, structure, goals, and underlying assumptions of educational curricula — including written syllabi, textbooks, lesson plans, and policy documents. By mapping what is taught, how it is sequenced, and what values are embedded, researchers and educators can evaluate alignment with learning objectives, identify gaps or biases, and guide curriculum reform across all levels of education.
