The CAM curriculum at UTMB was developed systematically, structured
around the standard elements of a curriculum: Goals, Needs, Objectives,
Methods, and Evaluation, using the GNOME model. Four core goals are
included, as seen in the Brief Overview of the Longitudinal CAM
Curriculum (linked below). Because a longitudinal curriculum was
planned, learning objectives were developed for each learner level and
activity, merging with existing objectives for the course if available.
To facilitate the integration of CAM content into existing curricula,
assessments of the CAM education needs and interests of key groups of
learners was undertaken. For each learning activity, a suitable
evaluation method was developed.
