Abstract:

The content and sequence of a course or a curriculum is the responsibility of the faculty of the college or university in which it is offered. It varies from school to school depending on local conditions, type and origin of students, and ultimate goal of the course or program. Few will argue with this statement; yet we all know that until about ten years ago most programs in agriculture were designed by the rubber-stamp method. Individual courses, the major components of the curriculum, and even the supporting course requirements were marked by a uniformity-a sameness, that was hard to disguise.

 

Keywords:
