This chapter draws together many of the ideas discussed in other chapters by looking at the points to consider when doing curriculum design on the vocabulary component of a language course. It also describes important vocabulary principles by seeing how learners can be encouraged to take control of their vocabulary learning. This chapter follows a traditional model of curriculum design consisting of goals, needs analysis, environment analysis, principles of vocabulary learning, format and presentation, content and sequencing, monitoring and assessment and evaluation. It also considers how the essential vocabulary learning conditions of repetition and quality of processing can be built into a language course, and presents eight practical recommendations for improving the opportunities for repetition and quality of processing of the target vocabulary in a course. The chapter also explores how learners can be helped to become autonomous in their vocabulary learning using principles based on the parts of the curriculum design model.
