Capturing the curriculum: a curriculum maturation and transformation process.
The author discusses an approach to successful curriculum revision that provides faculty with a renewed sense of individual and collective ownership of curriculum change. The framework for curriculum revision includes the components of commitment, change, collaboration, collegiality, consensus, communication, closure, and celebration, and the processes used to actualize these concepts.
