Abstract
The purpose of this research is to investigate the existing practices of ADE Curriculum
Implementation at the Government Elementary Colleges of Education affiliated with the
University of Karachi. The authors have noted that many courses of study were not
implemented effectively earlier to the courses under study, because the teachers had not
been involved in their production. US-AID Teacher Education Project in Pakistan has
introduced the involvement of all the institutional stakeholders in curriculum making.
This study attempts to explore the participation effects of all the stakeholders in
curriculum implementation. Earlier greater attention was paid on production rather than
installation, because, content was seen as more significant than the methods. This study
defines the role of University administration, College administration, faculty and
prospective teachers, and is intended to pave the way for Policy-Making to ensure
effective implementation. Academic administration and the faculty were interviewed
while FGD was conducted with prospective teachers enrolled at three colleges.
Qualitative Data was analyzed using thematic and coding strategies. Rigor was ensured
through independent coding and triangulation of data. After data analysis, results are
presented in terms of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats involved in
curriculum implementation.
