Curriculum 
Summary
of Curriculum
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.
