Activity # 1: Self-Check
We wonder if there can be a curriculum without evaluation since there needs to
be some way of knowing whether what the teachers are doing is having the effect
wanted. The problem of the Philippines is that feedback from evaluation of a curriculum
ends up being used to assess how poorly or well the curriculum works for each child. If
education ever moves to meet the needs of the child as an individual, as is done in
homeschooling then the approach will be evaluated as a success when it is a success
for a child. Maybe, one day parents will regain control over their children’s education so
that each child will be treated as an individual.
However, new curriculum implemented during our time is extremely helpful for
us. Because this time of curricula is very advance in terms of technology. Why?
Because technology can help us to improve our ability as a teacher. Now a days, we
can use a PowerPoint presentation during discussion, Power Excel for making students
grades and Microsoft Word for the report. Today’s generation, the teacher uses the
technology during discussion it helps for the learners to catch up the lessons easily.
Moreover, showing PowerPoint presentation more creative and colorful at class
discussion is more interesting. Student should focus on the lesson you presented
through the technique you are using most especially with random example and
combination with colored pictures.
As what we have observed before (the old curricula) comparing to new is there a
big difference, because the teacher uses handwritten most of the time. Teacher can
experience hassle and gaining their time when class approaching preparing their IM’s.
Unlike in today’s generation, the teacher will easily do their task in making their class
more interesting and understandable by using a PowerPoint presentation. Before, it
takes too much time to finish their IM’s, but as a mentor they must be more flexible.
Also, we had noticed that the way of disciplining the students is different from the past
curricula. Before, students are well disciplined and have their own initiative if they saw
their teacher approaching handling books while walking and of course students should
rapidly come to the teacher and offer to bring the books and mostly, they greeted to
those teacher who they will encountered everywhere. Now, that kind of attitude are not
rampant now. I did not say that all students are at same before in terms of those kind of
disciplinary action but most of them today are so rude.
We think the old curriculum is a little bit simpler than the new one why? Because,
during the time of curriculum as we remember, we and our classmates can easily pass
most of the exam without studying, the projects are easy and affordable. But still, the old
curricula are lack of competences for the student to get a better job when they
graduated. In our experiences to the new curricula we find it extremely hard for the
student like us, but this curriculum will improve the student and give more knowledge to
become competitive individual in any challenge this life offers.
Today’s society, innovation and creativity are needed in many areas, some yet
undiscovered. Unfortunately, most student continue to be educated in the same way as
they were in the past, being taught a standardized curriculum through rote learning. For
too many students are struggling to learn because they are disengaging and lack
motivation. Why go to school when you could learn the same information faster by
watching a YouTube video or playing a computer game? Why memorize facts for a test
when you have all the information in the palm of your hand anyway? This kind of
scenario is more advance and easier but how can we face the challenge of this new
curriculum when there is a threat want to block our way on going to success?
Unfortunately, we admit as a student that this pandemic COVID-19 is a rare
situation. We are so worried about our studies; we are not ready for this. But in the first
place, we must do our task and obey what is the school implemented. Have online
classes even though we are experiencing difficulties like no signal, poor signal, some
are no gadgets, not have enough money to buy a net connection etc. But it makes as a
challenge for us ‘’we heal us one’’.

Instruction: Give your own opinion about the situation given. Answer it in no less
than 300 words per item.
Yes, teacher must have the series of every lesson they presented and even in
their daily lives. They need to be flexible and manage their time on how to handle it as a
teacher. The most valuable part of planning is setting the learning objectives for what
the learner will know or be able to do after the learning experience rather than what the
learner will be exposed to during the instruction (topic). Typically, it is written in a
language that is easily understood by students and clearly related to the program
learning outcomes. Teacher should have to plan each lesson carefully in every class.
One of those objectives should always address the student’s reception of the lesson(s).
Implementation does not always cover what was planned, but this is natural.
Implementing needs to be flexible with the objectives in mind. If what was planned is
not working, or is not working that day, it must be replaced with the back-up plan. There
always needs to be a plan B. Implementing and improvising is a big thing. Each class
differs and you must adjust the lesson and the material appropriately.
Evaluating means assessing if the content objectives were met, but more
importantly for a teacher, reflecting on whether the implementation best addressed the
objectives. It also means looking for better ways to do that. Evaluation is a part and
package of the process. If students do not perform and not be evaluated, how can
teacher see the feedback or say whether they understand and acquire the educational
material? If every teacher did, then every teacher would become better teachers. Better
teachers, better schools. Have faith in your students and let them to feel the same. To
fly in knowledge. There is more to our life than just planning, implementing, and
evaluating.
The teacher’s life series of planning, implementing and evaluating will really
help to improve teaching. Planning, implementing, and assessing are three processes in
curriculum development that are taken separately but are connected to each other. If
you did all these things diligently, you will be the best teacher in the world. Planning,
implementing and evaluating will not only improve your teaching. Planning also allows
you to reflect on the implementation storage. Evaluating gives you feedback as to how
you performed.
Base on my opinion, this stage is by far the most important. Also evaluation allows
you to dwell on what you may do better when it comes to teaching the lesson again.
The best evaluation comes from the students, in that way, you get an even distribution
on whether they like it or not and what component they didn’t like. Of course, there are
some students that do not like any lesson you teach no matter what you do, it is what it
is, especially in the primary school.
However, I can’t imagine trying to teach anything without all of the above. The
material must flow, concept or term, easily into the mind of the student. IMO, there are
no tough subjects. Only poor information and conceptual flows. To accomplish such,
one must plan and re-plan and correct one’s stream of ideas. This does require that the
teacher take full responsibility for the process. Good teachers continuously improve
themselves using this feedback loop. The most important part of planning is setting the
objectives for lessons. One of those objectives should always address the student’s
reception of the lessons. Do they finish with a feeling of accomplishment? Implementing
needs to be flexible with the objective of mind. If what was planned isn’t working that
particular day, it must be replace with the backup plan. There always need to be plan B.
Evaluating means assessing if the content objectives were met, but more importantly for
a teacher, reflecting on whether or not the implementation best addressed of the
objectives. It also means looking for better ways to do that. However, not all teacher
does this. There are some teachers who write their lesson plans and use them year
after year, no matter what. If every teacher did, then every teacher would become better
teachers. Better teachers, better schools.
3. What possible teaching plans will you do if you become a teacher? Provide
10 plans and explanation each plan briefly.
3. “Never settle for less” – We all have our own definition of art, of skills and
capacity to do something. Never settling for less is something that we must take to
reconsideration as to doing better. It is not about what we just think is necessary but
how we can make it the better version of what we are to submit. To never settle means
trying to go beyond what is expected of what you can do.
4. A great teacher is a good listener – Students love it when they are not just
being heard but listened. There is a big difference to those two. Not because they are
just students, teachers become ALWAYS right but it is also necessary for the teachers
to admit when they wronged. Students appreciate teachers when they learn how to
value the essence of sharing: of thoughts, of learning and of experiences. Students
somehow try to see the beauty of teaching when they observe their teachers trying to
put their selves on their students’ shoe.
7. Learn Everything You Can About Your Field - Being very knowledgeable in
your field of study is also a crucial stepping stone towards a successful teaching career.
It's true that even the most successful teachers don't know everything. But, the more
you know, the easier it will be to teach your students and to offer them prompt answers
to their questions. You can also do more with technology, such as doing online
lessons and creating exciting technology-based activities.
When the Department of Education proposed the K-12 program in 2010, the
Senate was the first to pick holes in the proposition. The legislators protested the extra
two years and questioned the value it can give to students. They also complained about
the financial strain the new policy might pass on to parents who cannot even afford the
present 10-year basic education program.
The last two years of the K-12 program is collectively known as the Senior High
School (SHS). During this stage, you will need to take up a combination of “core” and
“track” subjects and choose a field that you want to specialize in. Its main goal is to
equip you with skills that would make you ready for college, employment, or
entrepreneurship.
Core Curriculum. According to DepEd, SHS’ core subjects covers 8 learning
areas. These include languages, communication, literature, math, natural sciences,
philosophy, and social sciences. Specific Tracks. Here, you can pick among the four
available tracks: academic, technical-vocational-livelihood, sports, and arts and design.
To help you decide on a field to specialize, DepEd will require you to take up various
assessments such as an aptitude test, a career assessment exam, and an occupational
interest inventory. Below is a list of tracks you can focus on: Academic Track: This track
has four strands: (1) general academic, (2) science, technology, engineering, and math
(or STEM), (3) accountancy, business, and management (or ABM), and (4) humanities
and social sciences (or HUMMS). These subjects are perfect for students who desire to
master specific field of interests and pursue college education after senior high school.
Sports Track: This track teaches safety and first aid, human movement, coaching,
fitness and recreation leadership, fitness testing, and psychological aspects of sports
and exercise. Arts and Design Track: Subjects in this track include two parts of creative
industries, leadership and management in various arts fields, and personal development
in the arts.
Technical-Vocational-Livelihood (TVL) Track: This track aims to carry out a
project-based learning that will make students skilled and job-ready after graduation.
Learners can specialize in any of the following fields: Home Economics (HE), Industrial
Arts (IA), Information and Communications Technology (ICT), and Agri-Fishery. After
completing this track, a student may obtain a National Certificate Level II (NC II),
provided he/she passes the competency-based assessment of the Technical Education
and Skills Development Authority (TESDA).
With all these subjects included in the new curriculum, students in the Philippines
will surely benefit from the K-12 program. They will not only be able to master the
competencies they want but will also earn the certifications and skills they need to win a
job.
In Kinder, mother tongue or lingua franca, shall be used as the medium of
instruction. The language used in the locality, may it be Ilokano, Tagalog, Bisaya,
Bicolano, etc., will serve as the medium in teaching the topics and concepts.
In Grades 1-3, the mother tongue will be used in teaching all subjects, except in
teaching Filipino and English subjects. Beginning Grade 4, the languages for instruction
will be Filipino and English.
2. What can I tell or suggest about K-12?
It takes more active role in the learning process. With freedom and
flexibility to choose what they learn, how they will learn, and how
they can evaluate your own learning, this would be a way to teach
them about independence and how to be a reliable member of a
team.
Basic skills such as reading, and writing are the main benefits of K
to 12. Adults who do not master these skills usually go through a
process of learning how to read and write before landing a good
job, making the situation even more difficult for them. Having a
good grasp on these skills all boils down to receiving a solid
education and having a strong foundation from it.
Learning general knowledge is one of the perks that you can get
from an education. The knowledge of history, geography, science,
or literature can be exhilarating, and it can greatly enrich one’s life.
All that useful information can have more value than material things
because someone who learns can probably feel more fulfilled.
4. Reflect on the statement and give your comment “The K-12 is bound to fail
because it is implemented hurriedly without through planning”
There are so many issues they must deal with- study, time, money, relationships,
job hopes, and more. Parent’s previous experience and education does not always
equip them in dealing with such pressures. Many students will not admit their problems
due to various reasons and this may eventually hamper.
First issue would be the cost of additional two years of primary education. Not all
public schools can accommodate the different strands of the K-12 so the government
gave “discount coupons” to public school students to cover part of the costs that private
schools set for Grades 11 and 12. Even if it were free, the cost that two additional years
entail is still a serious issue for several parents.
Second, I’m not sure if the Education Department spread out the lessons for the
primary school years to lengthen the program or added new lessons coming from the
tertiary levels, but the load of my grade 2 daughter has certainly not gotten any lighter
compared to my grade 12 son when he was grade 2. I expected it to ease up. Maybe
strengthened the important ones and lightened up other subjects. Subject to debate as
to which subjects of course. Take Math for example. Some or many say that our
students are lagging other Asian countries like Singapore. So, what do regular schools
do or what does the curriculum say? They accelerate the program by giving
multiplication and fraction problems early into the primary years. My daughter’s lessons
confirm that. My daughter has also competed in a massive math quiz game sponsored
by a company that espouses Singaporean math. So why did they compete when they
were not given Singaporean methods of learning math which is apparently or reportedly
more effective. Why does the Education Department continue with an accelerated
traditional math than just adopting Singaporean math (they allowed the contests
anyway)? Is there a business side to it - let’s keep your kids dumb so we can promote
alternative (better) math’s that are obviously better than ours which costs extra of
course(?)?
Third, graduating grade 12 students who decide to skip college and find a job
would be swimming right smack into the unemployment pool; I am almost certain they
wouldn’t drown cause the pools all filled up most likely. They are going to be in there
with the all the other job-hunting undergrads and graduates.
My point is that the program, which was hastily started, brings about more
difficulties/questions than solutions. I am not against it, but I am against how it is being
implemented. The first glaring defect is that not even all public high schools offer the
program and those that do, do not have complete strands of grades 11 to 12. State
college education is now free, so why shouldn’t all strands of K-12 be available and
given free?
Philippines has started the full implemented of the k-12 curriculum. In fact, we have
already produced thousands of Senior High School graduates by this time. It has been
an aim of Philippine Government and the Department of Education to produce Filipino
graduates who can complete academically, professionally, technically with the world.
Activity 5: Self-Check
Instruction: With the understanding about the concept of OBE, envision yourself in the
teaching profession. Among the two sentences below, choose only one to answer.
2. I do not seem to like OBE because … In the future when I become a teacher, I
should …
We like OBE because traditional education systems are losing their significance in
the age of globalization. All things change very quickly and continually in today’s globe.
More skills are needed to develop technology are very rapidly. In order to deal with
technological developments, academic organization should generate graduates.
Therefore, it is compulsory to move from traditional education to results-based education
to overcome the necessity. Aside from that learner-centric approach (OBE) will be
beneficial. There is a transparency which is focusing on results Outcome-based
education generates a transparent expectation of the top results. Students can
understand what they need to demonstrate throughout the course. Clarity is very crucial
as it is necessary to be clear in each category or in all levels, so that learners can
advance and to describe all the data and abilities necessary to accomplish this outcome.
There is also pliability which teachers can structure their classes according to the
student’s wishes by reading transparently what needs to be done. Therefore, OBE
specifies no instructional methodology; teachers are free to teach any methodology of
victimization. They will even be able to acknowledge diversity among the students by
victimization numerous teaching assessment techniques in OBE since it’s a student-
centered learning model. Instructors will facilitate students to grasp the concepts in any
manner that facilitate students learning. The analysis which is the OBE instructors will
analyze the results a student has accomplished and in which area they are upgraded to
analyse the talent and provide individual assistance and steering to meet their demands.
This helps teachers and institution. They also help teachers to monitor the development
and enhancement of the student over a certain quantity and to help them achieve their
result. And participation; the student’s participation in an institution is also important
component of OBE. Student’s measure squarely should attempt to learn to them, so that
the fabric is fully understood inflated student involvement permits students to feel to
blame for their own learning, and that they will learn a lot through this individual learning.
Instruction: In our curriculum today (K-12), provide 10 factors based on your own
understanding to it by using the SWOT analysis. S for the Strengths, W for the
Weaknesses, O for the Opportunities, and T for Threats.

Since 2011, critics have been very vocal on their primary concerns. They insist
the government isn’t yet ready for this new system and that this is more of additional
Despite call to suspend the program, the government remained firm saying this
new educational system offers opportunities for Filipino students and the national
economy. For its part, the Department of Education (DepEd) stresses that the country is
prepared for a big shift in education system. In fact, it has worked to fulfill the gaps on
the number of classrooms, teachers, and textbooks. Also, it has finished the planning
phases along with stakeholders. But what does K-12 scheme really have to offer to
students? To prove that K-12 system is more than just adding two more years to high
school, below are three of the many practical benefits of schooling under a 13-year
education cycle.
In fact, knowing your natural talents, skills, abilities, and personal accomplishments will
bring you one step closer to choosing a major. Many career counselors recommend
choosing a major that uses your strengths. Some strengths make tasks feel almost
information. Other strengths can be developed and improved over time, like learning to
budget your money or to solve everyday problems. Skills often require some form of
instruction and practice such as desktop publishing or applying geometry. The point is
that you can continue to acquire and build your skills throughout your life. Some
students may not be aware of what strengths they possess, and others feel
uncomfortable talking about their strengths. Some students may even think that they
don’t have any strengths. It is important to begin identifying your strengths, be able to
talk about them with others and think about how you might use them in a career.
