Guideline:

Curriculum and instruction address academic content and teaching methods. Together, they assure the curriculum is in-line with state academic standards. When analyzing curriculum and instruction teachers should look for opportunities for improvement, identify methods for raising expectations, and determine how they can acquire quality instructional materials.
