About this skill

Curriculum Designer

Overview

Supports instructional design and learning content creation. Provides educational design that reflects online lecture curricula, job competency models, foreign language learning strategy development, defining learning objectives based on Bloom's Taxonomy, and 2026 edtech trends (hyper-personalized learning, AI courseware).

Workflow

Step 1: Identify Learning Purpose

Target learners:

  • Age, job role, current level
  • Learning experience (beginner, intermediate, advanced)
  • Learning style (visual, auditory, hands-on)

Training objectives:

  • Duration (one-time, 4 weeks, 8 weeks, 16 weeks)
  • Format (online, offline, blended)
  • Achievement goals (what learners can do after completion)

Step 2: Define Learning Objectives

Apply the 6 levels of Bloom's Taxonomy:

Cognitive Level Description Example Learning Objective
Remember Memorize facts Explain basic concepts, terms, and principles
Understand Explain concepts Restate in one's own words
Apply Use in practice Practice problems, simulations
Analyze Identify structure Compare, classify, analyze causes
Evaluate Judge and critique Critical thinking, assess validity
Create New output Project, portfolio

Write specific learning objectives:

  • "Can do" form (e.g., can write a simple program using basic Python syntax)
  • Use measurable action verbs (explain, write, analyze)
  • Specify achievement criteria (e.g., can solve the problem within 5 minutes)

Step 3: Design Curriculum Structure

Organize the table of contents by week/unit:

  • Week 1: Orientation, basic concepts
  • Week 2: Understanding core principles
  • Week 3: Practice and application
  • Week 4: Project and comprehensive assessment

Learning content for each session:

  • Learning objectives (2-3)
  • Core concepts
  • Learning activities (lecture, practice, discussion)
  • Assessment methods (quiz, assignment)

Learning activity methods:

  • Video lectures
  • Practical assignment
  • Discussion·Peer review
  • Project-Based Learning (PBL)
  • Flipped Learning (pre-learning + in-class application)

Step 4: Decide assessment methods

Assessment methods:

  • Quiz: Weekly or per unit (remembering·understanding level)
  • Assignment: Practice problems, reports (applying·analyzing level)
  • Project: Team or individual (creating level)
  • Presentation: Presentation, feedback (evaluating level)

Assessment weight:

  • Quizzes 30%, assignments 30%, projects 40%
  • Formative assessment (process) 50%, summative assessment (outcome) 50%

Step 5: Organize deliverables

Learning objectives specification:

  • Overall learning objectives (3-5)
  • Weekly learning objectives
  • Achievement standards

Weekly curriculum table:

Week Learning objectives Learning content Learning activities Assessment

Instructor guide draft:

  • Tips for running each session
  • Anticipated questions·answers
  • Additional materials

2026 Korean education trends

Reflecting the EduMorning 2026-2027 Education Industry Outlook Report and EdTech Korea Fair trends:

Key keywords

  • Hyper-Personalized Learning: PwC Samil Paradigm Shift Vol.6 — The core value of edtech is personalized learning through individual learner analysis
  • AI courseware: Digital textbooks + AI integration. Integration of automatic grading, wrong-answer clinics, and learning analytics dashboards
  • Immersiveization (VR/AR): Spread of immersive learning content based on virtual·augmented reality
  • Connectedization: Data connection ecosystem among learners-teachers-parents-platforms
  • Convergence: Spread of project-based learning (PBL) that transcends subject boundaries

Considerations when designing Korean curricula

Area 2026 trends
Public education Preparing for the full introduction of AI digital textbooks, redefining the teacher's role
Private education Strengthening AI tutor competitiveness, differentiating human instructors through higher-order thinking guidance
Corporate education AX (AI Transformation) competency development, AI utilization education by job function
Language education AI pronunciation correction, real-time translation, native-speaker AI conversation partners

Curriculum design applying Bloom's Taxonomy

Structuring curriculum objectives according to Bloom's 6 levels:

  1. Remember → Understand: Learning basic concepts (AI automation area)
  2. Apply → Analyze: Practice·projects (teacher guidance area)
  3. Evaluate → Create: Critical thinking·creation (higher-order objectives)

Usage examples

Example 1: "Create an 8-week online Python introductory course curriculum" → Check learner level → Allocate Bloom's levels → Weekly table of contents → Assessment methods

Example 2: "Design a competency model for new sales employees" → Job analysis → Derive core competencies → Current level vs target level → Development plan

Example 3: "Create a 3-month study plan for a TOEIC score of 900" → Check current score → Analyze weaknesses → Weekly study plan → Mock test schedule

Example 4: "Plan an in-house AI utilization training program" → Check target job groups → Define learning objectives → Design curriculum → Assessment methods

Deliverables

  • Learning objective specification
  • Weekly curriculum table
  • Instructor guide draft
  • Competency model (core competencies by job)
  • Study plan (foreign languages, certifications)

Precautions

Access to training materials:

  • If training materials are inaccessible, tell us the learner level, target competencies, and training period, and we can design based on structure alone

If learning objectives are unclear:

  • Discuss together, "What should learners be able to do after completing this training?"

When requesting improvement of an existing curriculum:

  • If you share the current table of contents or syllabus, we will propose improvements

Special education targets (disabilities, elderly, etc.):

  • Apply accessibility guidelines and universal design principles
