Summary/Abstract: In order to diminish the school failure rate, which today is alarming in most countries, two currents about the curriculum clash: one that has been dominating the school system for more than five decades, technical and planning, based on goals and forming the core of objective-based pedagogy (OBP), the other is emerging, promoting a cultural approach of the curriculum, and inspiring pedagogical trends that bring into focus the context and situations which are significant for the students. The situation-based approach (SBA) causes many upheavals, but is the coherent option according to which students develop competences that are mostly action-oriented and situational. The new curricular construction based on competences is the paradigm of the future in the teaching world.
