The Handbook for Evaluating HIV Education - Booklet 3 Appraising
an HIV Curriculum
Conclusion
The appraisal of HIV curricula helps assure that school-based HIV
education programs are delivered in the most effective and up-to-date
manner possible. In reviewing HIV prevention curricula, school personnel
together with local review panels should evaluate aspects of the
curriculum that (1) address the identified needs of the students within
the schools, communities, or regions; (2) examine the quality and
completeness of the curriculum's components (i.e., instructional
principles, functional knowledge, self-perceptions, attitudes, involvement
of parents and guardians, skills, and duration); (3) determine the degree
of fidelity between the curriculum and its application in the classroom;
and (4) assess the impact of the curriculum on students' knowledge,
attitudes, and behavior. Back
