92 2011 Analyzing Contemporary Curriculum Development of an American State Senior High School Cheng Hsiung Lu * Abstract This paper takes an American senior high school as a case of study to understand more about curriculum design, admission system to the university, bullying prevention, and student management. Such understanding would be helpful in mapping out workable strategies to deal with heavy pressure of Taiwan s senior high school students, with university admission system, curriculum setting, and the length of study, making the students more dynamic in learning. Keywords: American senior high school, admission test to the university, curriculum design, bullying prevention * Cheng Hsiung Lu, Associate Professor, Department of Curriculum Design and Human Potentials Development, National Dong Hwa University E-mail: shawn@mail.ndhu.edu.tw Manuscript received: April 12, 2011; Modified: May 9, 2011; Accepted: May 19, 2011
