    The Wheeler curriculum model is a cyclic model that views curriculum development as a continuous and responsive process. It involves thorough situational analysis to understand the context and allow curriculum developers to make informed decisions. The model outlines key curriculum elements - aims that cover all learning experiences, goals that are specific to subjects, objectives that describe lesson outcomes, learning experiences, content that must be valid and engaging, and evaluation to assess achievement of objectives. Advantages include its continuous nature, ability to incorporate new information, treatment of elements as interrelated, and use of feedback. Disadvantages are that it can be time-consuming and difficult to implement and lacks clear procedures between some elements.
