Abstract

Designing a curriculum is a complex process that involves careful planning, organization, and integration of various components. Among the challenges curriculum designers face is ensuring that the different components, such as the content, methodologies, and assessments, are aligned with the learning outcomes and the competencies required by the industry and organizations. In this regard, a new model has been proposed that provides a common language for the curriculum design team and helps to relate the different components. The model is based on Wieringa’s Design Science and has already shown promising results in improving the alignment between curriculum components, external needs, and IT. © 2023, Associacao Iberica de Sistemas e Tecnologias de Informacao.
