DEFINISI KURIKULUM MENURUT PARA AHLI
Kurikulum adalah perangkat lunak dalam sebuah institusi pendidikan. Proses terbentuknya kurikulum diawali dengan menetapkan profil lulusan (Dikti, 2008). Tetapi sebelum menyusun kurikulum, alangkah lebih baik jika kita sebagai perencana mengerti apa sebenarnya yang dimaksud dengan kurikulum? Beberapa orang ahli telah merumuskan definisi kurikulum dari berbagai sudut pandang. Berikut ini adalah beberapa pendapat ahli mengenai definisi kurikulum. Definisi kurikulum dapat dibedakan atas dua bentuk (Ellis, 2004, p. 4., Dikutip dari Glatthorn, Boschee, Whitehead dan Boschee, 2012, p. 3) yaitu: / Kurikulum Preskriptif memberikan definisi mengenai apa 1.
