Learning Strand 5
UNDERSTANDING THE SELF AND SOCIETY
May 2019
Alternative Learning System K to 12 Basic Education Curriculum (ALS K to 12 BEC)
This Learning Strand ―Understanding the Self and Society is intended to help ALS learners acquire a positive sense of self and social responsibility
that will lead them to the development of their potentials and enable them to live together harmoniously in the contexts of their family, local community, and
country, as well as be able to participate as a member of the Southeast Asian region and an increasingly global community.
This means helping learners develop the capacity to think with complexity taking into account multiple cultural perspectives (Chickering & Reisser,
1993). In an increasingly globalized world, it is important that out-of-school youth and adult learners are able to see things through the hearts, minds, and
eyes of others, and understand the impact of regional and global issues on their lives and the lives of the members of their family, community, and country.
The Learning Strand endeavors to encourage learners to continue developing knowledge, attitudes, values, and skills in order to act locally in building a just,
peaceful, equitable, compassionate, multicultural, and pluralistic society. Hence, it is important to inculcate in learners that what they do affects their sphere
of influence (family and community) and creates an impact on the nation, the region, and the world. According to Colby and Sullivan (2009), persons with a
civic and moral identity and sense of obligation to society are more likely to behave in ways that fulfill individual and social responsible goals. Thus, as
members of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and world communities, learners’ horizons for developing identity need to be national,
regional, and global.
The underlying premise of the Learning Strand is presented below in a spiraling framework that indicates the constant flow of the self-development
process, which starts from the self and expands beyond intrapersonal space to the family, community, country, ASEAN region, and the world at large. The
flow indicates that to effect social and national transformation and participate as a regional and global citizen, the change process necessarily starts from
personal changes that would make the individual live and work effectively as a human person.
The Schematic Diagram projects a lifelong learner who is equipped with the following:
In the implementation of the curriculum and preparation/selection of learning materials for Alternative Learning System (ALS) learners, it is important
that the sequencing and spiraling of the Learning Strand 4 competencies are considered in order to achieve greater learning efficiency. The competencies are
arranged following a logical sequence from easy to difficult, simple to complex, specific to general, narrow to broad, thus generally increasing in scope and
difficulty as demonstrated in the examples below:
3.1.1 State one’s goal in life clearly and when they intend to
achieve these with tangible and intangible success criteria
21st-century Skills
3.1.2 Balance tactical (short-term) and strategic (long-term)
goals
5.1 Self-regulation
5.1.1 Ability to tolerate unmet wants or needs, handle
High intra and interpersonal skills disappointments and failures, and work toward success
5.1.2 Ability to resist addictive behaviors and manage ones
response and protect against abuse by others, i.e., cyber bullying
2.8 Describe the projects that can help solve community and
national problems, e.g.,
Clean and green campaigns
Active Community Water management
Reforestation
Cleaning of esteros, rivers, lakes, and seas
Maintenance of peace and order in the community
To complete SHS and meet the competencies for the middle skills development, entrepreneurship, and employment exits of the basic education
curriculum, ALS learners must complete the competencies that are specified in Disciplines and Ideas in the Applied Social Sciences (which is a Humanities
and Social Sciences Strand subject). They should also complete the specialization subjects of any of the following Senior High School tracks: Sports, Arts
and Design or Technical-Vocational-Livelihood.
College-bound ALS learners in SHS must also complete the core subjects Contemporary Philippine Arts from the Regions, Introduction to Philosophy
of the Human Person, and Understanding Culture, Society and Politics (or their equivalents). They must also complete all the specialization subjects in any of
the Academic Strands (Accountancy, Business and Management [ABM], Humanities and Social Sciences [HUMSS], Science, Technology, Engineering and
Mathematics [STEM], or General Academic).
If an ALS learner who has completed the K to 12 curriculum wishes to proceed to higher education, this learner may return to the ALS program and
take the core curriculum at any time.
