SPECIFICATIONS OF REQUIREMENTS
• Slide 17 (concept) is a list of parts, 9 bundles of courses.
• Slide 21 (design) is a list of the same parts, but
• Each bundle specified in detail- Slide 4-11 • Total of 3593 Accreditation Hours, during a
five year period.• Slide 21 can be the starting point, designated
as specifications of requirements to be met by the design.
23
SPECIFICATIONS OF REQUIREMENTS
• Designer elaborates details
• To produce curriculum content in Slide 4-11.
• This is revising an existing curriculum.
• New curriculum then based on revising existing curriculum.
• This avoids “rediscovering the wheel”
24
EVALUATION
• Job tasks graduate will perform- Slide 15
• Matches
• Proposed curriculum
• Detailed course content in Slide 4-11
• To evaluate
• Compare Slide 4-11 to Slide 15
25
COURSE CONTENT SPECIFICATIONS-TEXT
• The text specification necessary for the curriculum is the description of course content shown in Slide 4-11.
• This description will state the topics to be covered in the course content, and where possible, the scope.
• This can be used to develop the teaching material such as notes and tutorials.
26
COURSE CONTENT SPECIFICATIONS-TEXT
• Course content will be prepared in a few lines, probably less than one page
• This content is then elaborated by teaching materials such as notes and tutorials.
• Notes and tutorials then describe the course content more accurately.
27
ACADEMIC STAFF SPECIFICATIONS-TEXT
• This is the human resources required to implement the course content
• This is summarised in Slide 21
• The academic staff list prepared to match curriculum in Slide 4-11

SPECIFICATIONS THROUGH DRAWINGS
• Drawings prepared as part of design of curriculum provide the space required to house the population of learners.
• Space is required for classrooms and laboratories.
• Courses listed in Slide 4-11 require classrooms and laboratories for their implementation.
• This requires to be reviewed even for established courses where changes in student numbers alter the demand for space.
30
SPECIFICATIONS THROUGH DRAWINGS
• Specification for space required for curriculum • University of Nairobi is used as an example • Space available is represented by the Engineering
Block building• Housing Department of Mechanical Engineering. • Engineering building plan drawings• Ground floor- DRG. NO. 1, Second floor-DRG. NO. 2,
Third floor-DRG. NO. 3, Fourth floor-DRG. NO. 4• The planned use of the space in Slide 31-33
