| Abstract | Curriculum may be more adequately explained as the work of an organization than as a plan for individual learning. Research is reported based upon case studies of four allied health programs in one university with the intent to employ concepts from the organizational literature to describe a group of curriculums, and to determine if relationships among variables exist and yield a coherent explanation. The four programs were medical technology, nuclear medical technology, physical therapy, and physician assistant. The programs are distinct in having varying relationships to the dominant health care profession of medicine. Descriptions of each program were combined into one descriptive case study with the goal to promote internal validation by utilizing multiple sources of data and the perceptions of multiple investigators, and then rely heavily on internal consistency as the criterion of validity wherever possible. Results are discussed according to: environments of academic programs; boundary setting and boundary spanning; curriculum as an organizational technology; and outline of a tentative model. Curriculum can be most adequately explained by considering it an organizational phenomenon. Higher education curriculum might benefit from an emphasis on more complex organizational technology and structure issues. Contains 44 references. (SM) |
