Abstract
This article examines the theoretical frameworks crucial for developing equitable and sustainable curriculum designs in the context of post-pandemic education in Jordan. The COVID-19 pandemic has amplified existing disparities within the education system, underscoring the urgent need for curriculum reforms that prioritize inclusivity and resilience. This study explores key theoretical approaches— constructivism, social justice pedagogy, and systems thinking—as foundational pillars for designing curricula that meet diverse learner needs and ensure equitable access to educational opportunities. By integrating these frameworks, the article proposes actionable strategies for educators and policymakers to enhance curriculum development, creating an educational environment that is not only responsive to current challenges but also adaptable for future generations. In conclusion, this research highlights the importance of theoretical foundations in shaping educational practices that pave the way for a more equitable and sustainable educational system in Jordan.
