 a. What is your general recommendation to lessen the hindering factor and make curriculum development a success in terms: process,
people, and product?

The recommendation that I can give to lessen the hindering factors and make curriculum development a success
is that educational institutions should re-evaluate their goals and objectives, keep track of their employees skills, focus on
advancing technology in our Philippine Education System and have more trainings for teachers when it comes to our modern
technology.

a. How do curriculum development evolve and how these views differ year after year?
Curriculum development develops as the world continues to evolve, new discoveries have to be roped out from our education
curricula. Curriculum evolves each year because everything changes. The classroom is not a bubble for in fact, our four walled
classrooms is the best place for our students and us teachers to reflect on and learn from what is going on in our evolving world.

b. Think about curriculum implementation. How does the latter support in accomplishing the goals of the former? What challenges have to be
overcome?
Curriculum implementation supports curriculum development in accomplishing the goals of it by helping the curriculum to be
relevant to needs that is beneficial for the students and the society as a whole.
Some of the challenges that curriculum implementation has to be overcome are the following-the shortage of funds for teaching
and learning resources, lack of trainings on new curriculum for the teachers and other school staffs, new methods of teaching for the
new curriculum and the workloads for the school teachers.
