This is a presentation given by Vesna Lušicky (University of Vienna) at the CLARIN in University Curricula Workshop, held in Utrecht on 21–22 April 2026. This talk examines what a curriculum really is by outlining its multi-level structure: from international and national frameworks to institutional decisions, programme design, and classroom practice. It distinguishes between official and hidden curricula, emphasising that hidden curricula often arise from stakeholder expectations and broader societal, technological, and policy developments that shape curricular decisions in ways that are not always explicitly acknowledged. This perspective helps clarify why educators may struggle to integrate new content, tools, and infrastructures within existing constraints. The talk concludes by showing how an understanding of curriculum realities can support the integration of CLARIN (training) resources into university teaching, while also helping to calibrate expectations about the possibilities of research infrastructures and highlighting ways educators can make informed curricular decisions.
