- Integrated curriculum: organizing educational content around students' concerns or interests, themes, concepts, issues, and so on. This prevents the fragmentation of knowledge, enables education aligned with students' psychological development, allows attention to whole-person growth, and supports the formation of a positive self-concept. It also makes possible the efficient operation of the curriculum and the reflection of learners' interests and concerns.
1) Multidisciplinary: between disciplines; the same as the broad-fields curriculum. It is applied as a core process across subjects such as social studies, science, and the arts. But this is nothing more than applying the subject-centered curriculum as is, so it falls short. In other words, it selects important themes and principles and reorganizes them in a subject-centered way.
2) Interdisciplinary: breaking down the boundaries between disciplines while maintaining subjects, and reorganizing common factors around themes, concepts, and skills; the same as the fusion-type curriculum.
3) Transdisciplinary: reorganizing the curriculum around real-life themes, problems, and issues; the same as the core curriculum. Here the 'core' of the core curriculum is divided according to whether it is subject-centered, learner-centered, social-problem-centered, and so on. The core corresponds to the 'center.'
4) Correlation type: a curriculum that maintains the lines between subjects while relating them to one another.
5) Generative type: a curriculum that generates, in the field, how learners' experiences are to be structured.
