Abstract

The Capability Maturity Model (CMM) is used in the software industry to improve design process as well as product quality.Likewise, CMM is also used in the education sector for a similar purpose.This paper presents, in particular, a proposed maturity model for curriculum design for Institutions of Higher Learning in Malaysia.The Curriculum Design Maturity Model O E (CDMM-1) is specifically aimed at guiding curriculum designers in producing quality curricula according to programme specifications.In this study, CDMM-1, which is derived from the proposed maturity model, has both process and product components.However, this paper only focuses on the product quality aspect.
