Motivation

This property will be used to specify the specific field that a curriculum belongs to. Broad fields are bigger than narrow and detailed fields. These classifications will aid in making comparisons and also making observations on how biased curricula of a specific educational level, or country may be towards a specific field of discipline.

This will allow comparison of a local education level with the ISCED standard. This is helpful so educationists can relate with standards to manage pedagogy and education outcomes. Usually educationists are able to relate their local education system with a global standard unlike other local standards. Hence, with this addition, an educationist is able to take a look at another local standard and because it has been compared with the ISCED standard, they are able to relate.

In the example,accounting (Q4116214) is categorized in ISCED Broad Field as Business, Administration and Law. The same applies to the rest. For more information about ISCED check this document

• The property is not ready because it currently does not have valid examples. The examples don't tell us which item is supposed to get a statement to refer to which other item. ChristianKl ❪✉❫ 09:24, 23 August 2022 (UTC)
