Answer:

C. Student interest

The effectiveness of a curriculum is determined by several factors, including:

• Teacher competency

  The effectiveness of the curriculum is influenced by the teacher's competency, and the two develop and reinforce each other. 

• Student interest

  The interplay between the curriculum, teacher competency, and student and class characteristics determines the effectiveness of curriculum reform. 

• Assessment results

  Analyzing the results of tests, quizzes, and other assessments can help determine how well learners are performing. 

• Feedback

  Collecting feedback from learners and teachers can help identify areas where the curriculum is working well and areas where improvements can be made. 

• Research studies

  Comparing the performance of learners who have gone through the curriculum to those who have not can help evaluate the effectiveness of the curriculum. 

• Teaching approaches

  Effective curriculum includes teaching approaches based on academic research. 

• Collaboration

  An effective curriculum is created collaboratively and draws from the perspectives and expertise of all stakeholders. 

• Quality of learning

  A key indicator of curriculum success is the quality of the learning achieved by students.
