ohjelmaperusteista

Ohjelmaperusteista is a Finnish term that translates to "program-based" or "curriculum-based" in English. It refers to an approach to education or training where the content and structure of learning are defined by a specific program or curriculum. This means that learning objectives, teaching methods, assessment strategies, and the overall learning path are all determined by the established program.

In practice, ohjelmaperusteista education is common in vocational training, higher education, and often in structured professional development courses. The curriculum outlines the specific knowledge, skills, and competencies students are expected to acquire. This provides a clear framework for both learners and educators, ensuring a consistent and standardized learning experience. Progress is typically measured against the defined learning outcomes within the program.

The advantage of an ohjelmaperusteista approach is its clarity and accountability. It allows for systematic planning, resource allocation, and evaluation of the educational offering. Learners can understand what is expected of them and how their learning will be assessed. However, a potential drawback can be a lack of flexibility if the curriculum is too rigid and cannot adapt to the evolving needs of students or the demands of the job market. Nonetheless, it remains a prevalent and effective model for delivering structured education.
