2. Curriculum Development
• The mission statements describe what needs to be accomplished on the path to fulfilling the
visiongoal. • While the visiongoal is simple, enduring and never
fully attained, the mission statements provide a focal point of every effort, are clear and compelling,
and provide more of a short-term focus. • During the curriculum development process, all
program options are considered and investigated.
