What general advice would you give to a Curriculum Facilitator?
Debbie Azevedo Ed.D.: Curriculum and Instruction graduates should embrace technology and stay current with educational trends. The educational field is constantly changing, and graduates can keep up with the latest research and educational technology by attending conferences, subscribing to journals, and attending professional development. Being up to date on the latest educational technology can support graduates in enhancing their learning and streamlining curriculum development.
What Curriculum Facilitator skills would you recommend for someone trying to advance their career?
Debbie Azevedo Ed.D.: Graduates can pursue additional certifications, such as special education or bilingual authorizations. Another idea would be to seek opportunities in the private sector such as working with an edtech company or as an educational specialist, supporting school districts with curriculum and instructional practices.
What will help Curriculum Facilitators increase their earning potential?
Debbie Azevedo Ed.D.: 1. Collaboration with Colleagues and the Community - Graduates will need skills in teamwork and collaborating on curriculum design to create educational experiences supportive and inclusive of all students. 2. Digital Integration - Graduates will integrate digital tools, including artificial intelligence, into their curriculum to enhance student learning. 3. Data Analysis - The skill of collecting and analyzing student data to inform instruction will be essential in improving student outcomes. 4. Personalized Learning Design - The skill of designing curricula to fit students' needs, including adaptive learning technologies and individualized learning paths, will be critical in the next 3-5 years as learning becomes more student-centered.
What soft skills should all Curriculum Facilitators possess?
Todd Finley Ph.D.: Being able to read the social contexts of different schools and classrooms is critical for curriculum specialists. With strong interpersonal skills, they should be able to critique classroom instruction without causing the teacher to feel threatened. They should also be able to read when students are simply being compliant instead of actually engaged by a rich curriculum. Finally, a spirit of generosity needs to be the curriculum specialist's ethos instead of applying a deficit mindset to a teacher's abilities.

What skills will help Curriculum Facilitators earn the most?
Dr. Barbara Wissink: A candidate's resume must demonstrate that they have the correct credentials (master's degree and an endorsement/license in a specialized field) for a curriculum and instructional specialist position. Without the correct credentials, the candidate may be considered for a lower-paying "instructional support" position within a school district.
