Abstract
ABSTRACT The article presents a short case-study in which the Nominal Group Technique (NGT) is used in the process of structuring a curriculum development team's preliminary course planning. Previous claims that NGT acts to support initial course development through modifying group dynamics, rapidly identifying central curriculum design issues and facilitating experience exchange seem warranted in the instance we present. We describe the use of the NGT procedure as we have employed it and discuss its strengths and limitations in the context of immediate and longer-term curriculum planning of a CNAA BEd degree.
