An implementation of a curriculum framework : a case study

A Home Economics Curriculum Framework was developed
in 1984 in the A.C.T and implementation commenced in
1985. The purpose of this study was to examine the
implementation process in order to identify areas of
concern and difficulties encountered.
The study is set in the context of the establishment
of School Based Curriculum Development in the A.C.T
Education System and the program of Curriculum Review
and Renewal set up in 1983.
The initiation and development of the Home Economics
Curriculum Framework within this context was explored.
A case study was undertaken covering the period
1985-1987 involving six A.C.T High Schools which first
implemented the Home Economics Framework. Fullan's model
of implementation was used as a focus for the study and
both qualitative and quantitative data techniques were
applied.
