Sažetak
In Europe in the 16th century didactics started to develop as a branch of pedagogy which deals with the theory of the educational process. In Anglo- Saxon culture, instead of this term, the term curriculum appears during 19th century, and it was eventually accepted in Europe. In this paper, curricula for teaching foreign languages in lower grades of elementary schools in Croatia, Germany, the UK and the USA are compared and analysed. Since Croatian educational theory and practice has traditionally been largely influenced by those from the German-speaking area, the paper gives a comparison of the foreign language curriculum in elementary schools in Croatia with the experimental foreign language curriculum of the North Rhine–Westphalia federal state. In order to obtain a more comprehensive picture these results are then compared with foreign language curricula in the UK and in California. The objectives, content and strategies of individual curriculum, with particular emphasis on intercultural competence in lower grades, are analysed. The paper indicates the importance of early foreign language learning, as well as raising awareness of students’ own culture and the acceptance of diversity. It can be concluded that curricula which focuses on student achievement and competences is necessary for life in a modern society of rapid changes and global development.
