Definición

Heretofore, in the earliest beginnings of the curriculum field, scientific management and psychological sciences predominated curriculum with a behavioral approach that categorized and structured hierarchies of student ability and aptitude, generated from a worldview that elevated measurement and testing as the ultimate determinant.
