This research aimed to explore how the learning context was contextualized to meet the need for competency-based curriculum, illustrated with a case study of an elementary school global PBL (project-based learning) curriculum. The case study method was adopted, and data was collected by means of interviews and document analysis. The findings concluded: 1. the contextualization in the case school curriculum evolved from the effort of building up the international learning context on campus for years, teachers’ interdisciplinary teaching and students’ positive growth in learning performance 2. the learning context was contextualized by means of the adoption of authentic international collaborative projects and PBL curriculum design; 3. the curriculum design in contextualization transformed a local learning context into an international learning setting, further deepening students’ international learning. Based on these findings, this research made two suggestions: 1. the contextualized model of the integration between the context and curriculum design could serve as a reference for competency-based curriculum design; 2. further studies should explore the interconnections and influences among teachers’ team teaching, collaboration models, and professional development. |
