Hsu et al. Knowledge of Planning and Designing Curriculum planning and designing is a complex thinking process – much like engineering and technological innovation – that requires teachers to anticipate all kinds of situations that may happen in teaching. Harris and Hofer (2009) stated that, “teachers’ planning – which expresses teachers’ knowledge-in-action in pragmatic ways – is situated, contextually sensitive, routinized, and activity-based” (p. 1). Pedagogical decisions are the product of teachers’ considerations of institutional constraints, antecedent conditions, teacher characteristics, and cognitive processes that have consequences for teachers and students (Shavelson & Stern, 1981).
