Description¶
The article adopted Walker's Naturalistic Model to develop the WRD curriculum framework. The model includes three basic phases termed "platform, deliberation, and design". In this study, a platform was used for describing consensus of concepts, knowledge or learning experiences on WRD, and deliberation identified which concepts or knowledge and learning experiences are needed or essential on WRD. Two rounds of focus groups were used to reach the consensus of deliberation, producing seven essential learning themes that were then used to design the local curriculum framework.
