Every curriculum model's development has its time, culture, and background. Besides, in accordance with the mainstream theory and society culture, each curriculum model has its theoretical foundation, educational aims, content, and evaluation method. The purpose of this paper is to study the development background and process of the above models, and review the theoretical foundation and curriculum elements of each model in early childhood education. In addition, from the viewpoints of philosophy, social-culture sociology and cognitive psychology, this paper intends to comment on some of the basic issues of the curriculum models of early childhood education.課程模式幼兒教育課程Curriculum modelEarly childhood educationCurriculum
