**1.2 Etymology and history**

## *1.2.1 Etymology*

"Curriculum" with its Latin root means race. It is derived from "currere" word which means to run or to proceed or "curricle" which means chariot. "Curriculum vitae" is also a mutual term which shares the same meaning of progressive continuity, hence; this meaning reflects that it is a continuous evolving not-stationary not stagnant process, so it needs endless assessment and improvement to maintain and metastasize its virtues and to overcome its shortcomings [13].

**Footnote:** *Do not be stagnant in this turbulent race, think about curriculum reform.*
