The main responsibility of the Curriculum Development unit of Gazi University School of Foreign Languages is to prepare yearly and weekly lesson plans. The content of all coursebooks and CEF criteria that are determined by a commission and that will be used in an academic year is used as a base in this course. Converted to the lesson plan according to the academic calendar, the yearly plan is handed out to all instructors at the weekly course meetings that are organized routinely. Another duty of the curriculum development unit is to determine the lacking or weak points of the coursebooks to be used in accordance with the aims set while preparing the yearly and weekly plans and add the items prepared by the curriculum development unit to the required places. The unit also determines the exam schedule by taking into consideration the academic calendar and annual program. The content and calendar of the portfolio practice which are a part of the exam system applied in our school is also determined by the curriculum development unit. The most important duty of the curriculum development unit is to ensure the application of the program in the whole school throughout the year and to follow the operability during application.
