Three applications of the Role Delineation Project 1985 Curriculum Framework.
Colleges are beginning to use the Role Delineation Project Curriculum Framework for curricular reform at the graduate and undergraduate levels. This paper describes the efforts of three universities to revise their curricula based on the Framework. At Towson State University, it is being used with other national and state standards to assess health educators. At the University of Alabama at Birmingham, it provided the structure by which the faculty determined the competence of exiting health majors. At the University of Georgia, it was used in strategic planning and graduate education restructuring. The Framework, while lacking material in certain professional development areas, provides the structure for departments to begin the process of health education curricula reform.
