There are three main curriculum design models: subject-centered which organizes content by discipline, learner-centered which focuses on the needs of students, and problem-centered where curriculum is built around solving real-world problems. Problem-centered design involves selecting a problem, identifying resources to research it, analyzing information, drawing conclusions, and looking for new problems to solve.
