Accomplish the H Chart. Interview an administrator or a faculty member. Get their ides/views of
the curriculum. Write the differences on both sides and the similarities at the center and then write your
personal insights.

students/learners
> Gives opportunities
to develop a high order
thinking skills
> used modern instructtional materials that
are suited to the needs
of the learners

My Personal Insights
Traditional curriculum is really far if we
compared this to progressive curriculum. In
progressive curriculum, there is a quality of
education the teachers are competitive and ready
to compete to our globally competitive world.
The students in progressive curriculum, and
eager to learn unlike in traditional curriculum.

My Enriching Activities

My Analysis
1. Why do we need to consider the traditional and progressive points of
view of curriculum?
So that we should transfer the traditional one to
progressive. Nowadays, there is really a need to have a
progressive curriculum because todays generation is far
different from that of the past. We must need to suit the
needs of the time. Everything is changing yet it has a good
outcome for everyone.

2. How do the different educational philosophies relate to the curriculum in the

schools you visited? Cite examples/situations.
Educational philosophies are related to the school Ive been
observed for they have a quality education. They are PAASCU
accredited. Aside from engaging to activities that enhance the
learning of the students, the teachers also mold them to be good
citizens through Vincentian formation.
3. Why is there a need to revise the curriculum from time to time?
There is a need to revise the curriculum from time to time for
us to suit the needs of time. We should go on with the flow of life
and we should revise the it now because curriculum in the past is not
anymore very effective or suited for todays generation.

My Reflections/ My Insights
Language is dynamic as well as the curriculum. We have different
curriculum in the past and in the present. We are now in a globally
competitive world. A world that also needs competitive teachers and
students. So, how will you become competitive if your curriculum is
traditional? And if it doesnt aware of the new learnings of today?
Students now are fond of using computers. They will probably
choose going to the computer shop than going to school. As a teacher,
what will you do? Dont be a boring teacher! An effective way of solving
this kind of phenomena is that the teachers must use technology in
teaching. Make it as your partner in delivering a lesson so that the
students will not get bored. Make a teaching-learning process lively and
meaningful.

My Analysis

1. How important is the schools vision, mission and goals in designing the curriculum?
It is important in designing the curriculum because it will serve as trademark of
the school. These are what the school needs to accomplish. They have vision, mission
and goals so that the school will be able to maintain their objectives and standards in
school.
2. What methods and strategies were employed by the school community to realize these goals?
The methods and strategies were employed is through activities that suited to
the vision, mission and goals of the school. The school community does their best just
to make sure that the curriculum of their school should be effective to the students.
And to achieve this, they will serve first as the model to the students. They are the
one who will first apply the vision, mission and goals of the school in their day-to-day
lives.
3. How did the students manifest that they have internalized their vision, mission and goals?
Through engaging themselves in the different activities that the school has
implemented. If they follow the rules and regulations of the school that even though
they are outside of the school, or they are already graduated, still they did not forget
the vision, mission and goals that they previous school had. And if the students still
apply these thing in real-life situation, not only inside the classroom or campus.

My Reflections/ My Insights
The school should have its vision, mission and goals so
that the students have a rule to be followed. This helps the
students to be morally upright. In this institution, there are
lots of things that Ive learned. This is the type of school that
has a quality of education. As a student, there are lots of
Dos and Donts to be followed. And this made me become a
better person.

on teaching and

2. Observe a class.

Includes decisions about:

the needs of the learners
the aschievable goals and objectives to meet the needs
the selection of the content to be taught
the motivation to carry out the goals
the strategies that are suited to carry out the goals/objectives
the evaluation process to measure learning outcomes.

requires the teacher to implement what has been planned. based on

the objectives, implementation means to put into action the
different activities in order to achieve the goals through the subject
matter.

a match of the objectives with the learning outcomes will be made.

the kind of information should be determined so that the type of
evaluation should be chosen to fit the purpose.
it will answer the question if the plans and implementation has been
succesfully achieved.

Observe a class, record the situations where these behavioral learning theories are applied in real
classroom work.

Behavioral Learning Theories emphasize

observable behavior such as new skills,
knowledge or attitudes which can be
demonstrated.

When the teacher gives activity such as research

work, experimentations, demonstration of a certain thing
and the like. This will help the teacher to examine the
learners behavior for the certain activity.

Cognitive Learning Theories unobservable

mental processes are used to learn and
remember new information or acquire skills.

This is seen during recitation, quizzes, exams,

projects, etc. wherein, the teacher could be able to
measure the learning capacity of an individual.

Discovery Learning individual

learns from his discovery of the
environment.

Learning by Doing. This is seen during the

experimentation, thesis, research and the like.
Wherein the students are able to explore and
could get ideas out of what they saw in their
surroundings/environment.

Reception Learning learners are actively

involved in their own learning.

We could say that it will be seen

during performances like drama, role plays,
poem, reciting, singing, etc. The learners
are actively participating and learn a lot
through mingling with others.
If the activities are on their needs or
their capacity to do such thing. And if it is
based on their skills and abilities.

My Analysis
1. Explain why teaching and learning give life and meaning to the curriculum.
Teaching and learning give life and meaning to the curriculum because this is
the process wherein the teacher and the students interact with each other
interchangeably or vice versa. If there is an effective teaching-learning process, its
really a big help to the curriculum. Its a big honor because each complements and
supplements each other. The value placed in teaching will reap the same value in
learning. Thus, a good curriculum can be judged by the kind if teaching and the quality
of learning derived from it.

2. Discuss why the deluge of information poses a great challenge to both teaching and learning.
The curriculum seems to be overloaded since it has too many subjects to cover,
too many topics to be discuss. Sometimes, the curriculum is fragmented or is simply
bowed. Unfortunately, the learners life is not compartmentalized.

My Reflections/ My Insights
I LIKE TEACHING BECAUSE...
For me this is a very challenging and exciting
profession of all. Teaching is the noblest of all profession.
I like teaching because It molds the hearts, minds and
hands of students. If you are really an effective and
efficient teacher, you could touch your students lives.
You will be their inspiration and they will never forget you
for the rest of their lives.

My Map
To reach my target, I should do these steps.

Observe a class.

Identify the curriculum

design used by schools.

Reflect and write my

insights/learning gained
from the activities.

My Analysis

1. Examine the Basic Education Curriculum. What aspects do you want to modify. Why?

I want t modify the English subject in Secondary Education Curriculum. This

was said that in English, this addresses the communicative needs of students by
adopting a communicative, interactive, collaborative approach to learning as well as
reflection and introspection with the aim in view of developing autonomous language
learners aware of and able to cope with global trends.

2. What curriculum models do you prefer? Why?

I will choose Learner-Centered Design because among the progressive

educational psychologists, the learner is the center of the educative process. This
emphasis is very strong in the elementary level, however, more concern has been placed
on the secondary and even the tertiary levels.

My Reflections/ My Insights

Subject Centered
Design Model
This model focuses on the content of
the curriculum.
Correspondents mostly to
the textbook, written for
the specific subject

Problem-Center
Design Model
Draws on social problems, needs,
interests, and abilities of the
learners. Various problems are
given emphasis.

What do I
like
best in these
curriculum
designs?

Content cuts across

subject boundaries and

must be based on the needs,
concerns and abilities of the
students.

Learner-Centered
Design Model
The learner is the center of the educative process.
It focuses on the learners, their needs and the learnings
that they should acquire from the teachers and from their activities
and experiences as well.

each
dimension

My Tools

Continuity

Vertical repetition and recurring approaches of the content provide

continuity.

Examples of topics in a subject area where content is organized in a spiral fashion increasing in breadth
and depth.

For example in English, the topic is part of speech. So, to discuss all the parts
of speech, you should organize fist the first part of speech to be discussed. Example,
here are the sequence, discuss first the noun, followed by pronoun, next is verb,
followed by adjective and so forth.

My Analysis
1. Why is there a need to articulate the lessons from grade school to high school?
There is a need to articulate the lessons from grade school to high school that
there is a connection between the lower level and the next level. So that if the
students are entering high school, they will not be surprised because the lessons s still
related when they are in elementary. As a teacher, you should discuss the lesson from
step by step, the lesson should be organized. The teacher must not jump into another
topic without finishing the previous one.

My Reflections/ My Insights
As a teacher, I need to understand fully well the dimensions of
curriculum design because
This is really needed when you are in the teaching
profession. This must be followed to avoid confusion in the
part of the students. The teacher should be aware of these
things so that whenever/whatever schools she will be
assigned, she had already had the knowledge about the
dimensions of curriculum design. And in order for her to
also understand the curriculum she belongs, for her to
respect the curriculum of the school that she presently
teaching.

To get on task, I should know the answers to these questions.

do teachers teach?
do teachers teach?
do teachers teach?
much of the teachers?
lessons were learned?
do we teach?

My Tools
Interview a teacher in the school you visited and inquire how they have utilized their parents as school
partners in education.

I interviewed Mrs. Lea Gabad a teacher from

Matnog National High School which I conducted an
actual examination in her class as part of our
requirements in Assessment of Learning 1 under Mr.
Ruel Frago. According to her, parents are really
important as one of the partners of the school in
education because parents play a big part in education.
At the beginning of the school year, during the Brigada
Eskwela, parents are the person invited to help the
school by means of cleaning in the entire school. All of
the parents are helping each other for the good of the
school and for the good of their children. They want to
help the school because this is the second home of their
children having teachers as a second parents.

My Analysis
1. As a future teacher, I need to know and understand the six (6) features of the curriculum because...

These are really important for me to become an effective

and efficient teacher someday. For me, to be able to
know the things I should do for the good of my students,
and to my curriculum as well.

My Reflections/ My Insights
Be a well-developed teacher!
As a future teacher, this is a big challenge to me. Could I
become an effective and efficient teacher someday? Could I
effectively use my head, hearts and hands in helping my students to
be better? According to Dr. Koo the teacher should use the 3Hs in
teaching the students. Headteaching lots of ideas to learning, by
molding them academically; Heartshelps them if they have a
problem/s, be a compassionate teacher; and Handsbe helpful, be
approachable, we should not help the students through financial
aspects but we could help them through giving advices and support.

1. Identify the various

implementations of the
curriculum.

2. State the role of

technology in
delivering the
curriculum

3. Explain the
different ways of
assessing the
curriculum.

My Tools
1. explain ways on how to effectively implement the curriculum. Interview the school
administrator/principal.

Learner:
by being a good
follower of the
rules of a
curriculum.

Parents:

Faculty Menbers:

by supporting
their children
to engage in
whatever
activities of
curriculum.

by having unity to
each other.
teach the
children the Do's
and Don'ts.

Curriculum

Community
Members:

Administrators:
by making rules
and regualtions
that will help the
children to be
better personds.

Other
Stakeholders:
help the
curriculum to be
more effective
for the
improvement of
it.

they are partners

of the school.
They give also
support to the
school.

2. Visit the Learning Resource Center of a school. Interview the media/learning resource staff. How does
technology help in delivery the curriculum?

Technology is a big help. It is the symbol of how

the curriculum is progressive. If the schools have lots of
technologies/ high-tech for a better teaching, this will
entertain the students to stay in the school. Through
technologies, it helps the students to acquire knowledge
from them.

3. Interview a faculty member or an administrator. Ask what criteria they use in evaluating their school
curriculum.

Ive asked one faculty member, she said that every

year the administration give evaluation sheets and lets the
students answer it. so that they will know if they will
change some of strategies of a curriculum.
