My Personal Insights
Answer:
The type of curriculum a school offers is very important. Based

on the table above, we can see that the traditional curriculum is
far behind from the progressive curriculum. Nowadays, we must
go with the flow of 21 st century. We must cope up with the
changes so our curriculum must improve too so that we can
develop the children holistically. As we are in this present
generation, we must use the progressive curriculum because it
engages students in activities of a higher plane of thinking.

My Analysis
1. Why do we need to consider the traditional and
progressive points of view of curriculum?
Answer:
We need to consider the traditional and progressive

points of view of curriculum because in a classroom,
a diverse student could be found. As future
teachers, we must see to it that whatever we are
teaching is suits the needs and learning capabilities
of the learners. We need to utilize and organize
various teaching methodologies so that our learners
may learn better. Aside from that a wide
understanding on what these two views of the
curriculum is all about giving information on what
view is beneficial.
2. How do the different educational philosophies relate

to the curriculum in the schools you visited? Cite
examples/situations.
Answer:
In Bacong Central School, the different educational

philosophies are used as springboard in teaching
pupils with special needs, and they are really related
to curriculum because they firmly believe that these
philosophies has important role that can heavily
influenced curriculum especially in their SPED
class, pupils are actively involved in developing
curriculum.
5
3. Why is there a need to revise the curriculum from
time to time?
Answer:
I firmly believe that there’s a need to revise the

curriculum from time to time in order to suit to the
demands of the present generation. We have to
accept or adapt the different changes in our
curriculum rather than, still remain on the same
curriculum and also to be globally competitive.
Revision of curriculum is also done to enhance and
improve the thinking skills of the students and
develop the quality of teaching to reach the vision.
My Reflections/ My Insights
Answer:
In narrow sense, curriculum is just the list of subjects

taught in schools. But in broader sense, it is not just
the subjects but rather the total learning experiences
we give to our children. There are many curriculums
happening in one school like the written curriculum,
achieved, taught, etc. there are many types of it but
what is essential is that together they make one
curriculum that makes a certain school different from
other schools. Bacong Central School has a very good
curriculum: from the teachers to the administrators,
and up to school activities,
6
My Portfolio
The opposite of a progressive school. One that focuses more on

obedience, studying and tests then on hands on experimental type
learning. In a traditional school it is a preparation for life. Learners in a
traditional school are passive absorbers of information and authority.
Learning is linear, with factual accumulation and skill mastery.
Knowledge is absorbed through lectures, worksheets and texts. And
teachers in the traditional school are sources of information and
authority.
7
In a progressive school it is a part of life. Learners in a progressive school are
active participants, problem solvers and planners. Learning is spiral, with
depth and breadth as goals. Knowledge is constructed through play, direct
experience and social interaction. And teachers in progressive school are
facilitators, guides who foster thinking.

My Analysis
1. How important is the school’s vision, mission and goals in
designing the curriculum?
Answer:
The school’s mission vision and goals are very important in

designing the curriculum because your curriculum is for the
vision of the school. Curricula should revolve around the vision,
mission and goals which guide the school.
2. What methods and strategies were employed by the school

community to realize these goals?
Answer:
The methods and strategies used to realize the school’s goals are
through the curriculum, by the learning experiences like day- to-
day lessons in the classroom, scholastic activities. Some of the
strategies are the planned objectives, the instructional materials
to be used; the multitude of teaching methods and educational
activities that enhances learning. Among the methods are the
inquiry approaches, constructivist and other emerging strategies
that complement new theories in teaching and learning.
3. How did the students manifest that they have internalized their
vision, mission and goals?
Answer:
Here in Bacong Central School as they enter the gate and see the
tarpaulins hanged, I can say that they internalized their mission,
vision and goals because these tarpaulins show the triumphs of
students here. And also, they manifest it the way they interact, act
and speak, and they engage themselves in different activities that
school implemented. A student even at very young age appears to be
intelligent and knowledgeable enough.
13
Answer:
The first component of the curriculum is the learning

goals and objectives which are based on school’s
mission, vision and goals which are based schools larger
vision and mission but of course this school’s vision and
mission is also aligned on the goals of education as
stated on the Philippine Constitution.
Just like in our lesson plan our vision and mission

serves as our guiding stars for it allows us to decide
what to be included in our curriculum and what is to be
omitted, it is also important that students must be
aware of the schools vision and mission so that they can
internalized it and for them to set their personal
objectives.
As a future teacher, I’ve realized the importance of the

school goals. I’ve also learned that the school objectives
should also reflect the needs and specialization of the
whole educational community. At the same time, the
school goals should be supported with quality
educational experiences and learning content. And
finally there should be an evaluation to know whether
our aim which is to develop a well balanced individual is
attained or not.

My Tools
For this episode, I will use the activity from given below.
Interview a teacher. Ask if they perform these series of actions in the

teaching process.
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
PLAN 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,
IMPLEMENT 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
EVALUATE evaluation should be chosen to fit the purpose.
it will answer the question if the plans and
implementation has been succesfully achieved.
19
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.
The teacher taught her students on how to
write sets in roster and rule method. Later, they
have board work. The students are given a tasked to
translate the set written in roster method to rule
method and vice versa. The performance had
showed their learning as based on behavioral
learning theories.
Cognitive Learning Theories –

unobservable mental processes are used to
learn and remember new information or
acquire skills.
While the teacher is reviewing on sets, students

scan their book for information and to acquire new
skills. They use different method in remembering facts
depending on their varied learning styles. This is the
main concern of cognitive learning theories.
20
Discovery Learning – individual

learns from his discovery of the
environment.
The discovery learning happens here when a

student encounters a difficult word then my
resource teacher Ma’am Victoria gave clues to the
word so that the student will understand the word,
or will be able to give context to the word.
Reception Learning – learners are
actively involved in their own
learning.
Reception learning happens here because

Ma’am Victoria provides them experiences by
letting them go in front. They are directly involved
because the instruction or the lesson proper is
active. They are directly involved because they are
learning by doing.
My Analysis
1. Explain why teaching and learning give life and meaning to the
curriculum.
Answer:
Teaching and learning gives life to the curriculum because it is the

actual implementation of the curriculum and the curriculum is nonsense if we
are not going to implement it. Teaching and learning complement and
supplement each other. Teaching and learning tests the curriculum if it is
effective. The value placed in teaching will reap the same value in learning,
thus a good curriculum can be judged by the kind of teaching and the quality
of learning derived from it.
21
2. Discuss why the deluge of information poses a great challenge to both

teaching and learning.
Answer:
Today, in this digital era, information comes from various sources.

Sometimes this will cause information to overflow or to become overloaded.
This situation had become a great challenge to teaching and learning.
The deluge of information poses a great challenge to both teaching and learning
because the curriculum seems to be overloaded; too many subjects to cover,
too many topics to teach. Sometimes the curriculum is fragmented or is simply
boxed. Unfortunately, the learner’s life is not compartmentalized.
Teacher as agent of teaching must carefully choose information to be used to

diverse learners, some information may not be suitable to his/her learners
that’s why great consideration is needed. If this will not be met, learning and
teaching might come in jeopardy.
I LIKE TEACHING BECAUSE...
It is the main way of dispersing knowledge, values and

skills to individuals who are of great need of this knowledge to
be used in one’s life. Like a potter, molding clay to form a
beautiful vase. Teaching is one of the means of directing and
individual to right paths. It is through teaching that learning is
achieved. It is through teaching that individuals are changed. It
is through teaching that made the world a better place to live in.
To teach is to make someone learn. It is the greatest and noblest
profession of all.
I like teaching because it molds the hearts, minds and hands of

students. I like teaching because I have a passion for it and I
want to see my students learn and apply what they have
learned. I want to be a teacher because I want to be an
inspiration to my student. If we are really an effective and
efficient teacher, we could touch our student’s lives. We will be
our inspiration and they will never forget us for the rest of their
lives.

Identify the curriculum design
used by schools.
26
My Analysis
1. Examine the Basic Education Curriculum. What aspects

do you want to modify. Why?
Answer:
I still lack of experiences to give any input to a curriculum made by

experts, but I will try my best to convey my ideas. Since, there are still
non-readers when students reach high school, then part of it must be
because of the curriculum. If I were the one to modify it, I would
suggest the allotted time for the subjects be changed and the number
of topics should be lessen for the lower grades and give more focus on
the major subjects such as Language, Science and Mathematics. If this
is done, I believe more time will be spent on learning the 4 language
arts namely, Speaking, Reading, Listening and Writing. It is also vital
to give more emphasis on basic Mathematics for mastery development
to avoid wasting time with remedial classes in high school.
This is really a great demand to all teachers because we can only
comply with what the curriculum requires. Producing non-readers is
not acceptable and is considered a failure on the part of the teacher.
The distribution of time for each learning area should be reconsidered
because this is what our learners need at the moment.
When it comes to each subject, the topics should be lessens because

according to my research, the evaluation showed that an overcrowded
curriculum results in students’ poor performance. Students need more
time in Science and Mathematics. Our students are deficient in reading
ability and have not yet developed higher order thinking skills in
higher grade level.
There is a danger of reverting back to illiteracy if the student drops out

even before completing Grade VI. Teachers should all be aware of this
and try to act now before it is too late.
Our country ranked 48th among 63 countries in the IMD’s 2022 World
Competitiveness Yearbook (WCY), but remained the least competitive
placing 13th among the 14 Asia-Pacific economies in the index for the
fifth straight year. The Philippines ended up at the bottom of the list of
competitive countries in the Asia-Pacific region. Our country has
improved but still at the bottom of Asian countries. The result showing
that we really have problems in our educational system.
27
2. What curriculum models do you prefer? Why?
Answer:
I personally prefer the learner-centered design model, particularly

the experience-centered because I want to give activities to my
students which they are comfortable with and when they are
proficient with their strengths, the next step is to take them out of
their comfort zone to test their weaknesses and provide experiences
for them to overcome these things.

What do I like best in 28

these curriculum
designs?
My Portfolio
Make an illustration of any of the three curriculum design models. Be sure to
incorporate the salient features of the design.
Why I Like All 3 Designs
Just like with the methods and strategies, there is also no single best
Curriculum Design because the designs are all needed for each characteristic
of a learner to be improved. The development of a child cannot rely on only one
of the designs. They all work well in combination to serve the needs of the
students better.
First, I want to state why I like the subject-centered design. This design
is easy to deliver because the materials or the textbooks will be the guide of the
teacher. This design is the most familiar to everyone. This is also a strong
foundation for the implementation of the other designs in class. It serves as the
students’ background knowledge of a subject. So when other designs such as
problem-centered and learner-centered are implemented the student will easily
adapt to them.
Second is the problem-centered design. This is suitable for the higher

level students since this is the time when they need to start being mature
people, stop daydreaming and face reality. The issues they will be facing when
they graduate and become workers will be much bigger so it’s a good time to
practice in school by starting to face the problems they encounter in their life
and how to solve or overcome them.
Though I said in the title that I like them all, the learner-centered design
is what I like the best. Teachers have it hard because they are supposed to
correct mistakes but we have to be ready of the consequences as students may
take it the wrong way and stop participating. We must find ways of dealing with
errors because the path to fluency must include a lot of mistakes. The only way
to make no mistakes is to say nothing and one will never learn anything that
way.
As much as possible I want my future students to be active. Rather than

showing them that I’m the one in the room with wisdom, I would like them to
feel that they are welcome to speak their mind in my class without the fear of
embarrassment. I want my students to be confident while reciting or reporting.
In any activity, my dream is for everyone to participate and learn by doing
things they haven’t done before as a result, making them grow not by size but
by heart and mind.

MAKABAYAN subjects may choose to have a common theme.
Vertical repetition and recurring approaches of the

Continuity 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 first 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.
34
My Analysis
1. Why is there a need to articulate the lessons from

grade school to high school?
Answer:
There is a need to articulate the lessons from grade

school to high school because this can provide for a
continuous flow of knowledge. There must be
consistency and fluency during this period of transition.
In addition to that, educators must be sure to provide
the conceptual base and experiences needed so that
students will be able to understand new and more
difficult concepts. Research also has verified the
importance of building on student’s prior knowledge
when helping them learn new concepts.
As a teacher, I need to understand fully well the
dimensions of curriculum design because…
Answer:
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.

39
My Tools
Interview a teacher in the school you visited and inquire how they have utilized
their parents as school partners in education.
Effective parental involvement in school affairs may
be linked to parent educational programs which is
central to high quality educational experiences of the
children.
The parents become part of the environment of

leaning at home. Parents follow up the lesson of their
children especially in basic education.
Parents provide curriculum materials that are not

provided in the schools.
They provide permission for their children to

participate in various activities outside the school
campus.
In most cases parents associations have strengthen

the curriculum by giving support to various activities
and assisting in the accomplishment of the school’s
curriculum.

Answer:
Teachers are the most crucial persons in the

implementation of the curriculum. He/she holds the key in
operationalizing what activities have been planned. With the
full support of the principal, supervisor and other school
administrators, the teachers who are empowered will be
able to select, organize carry out and evaluate learning
experiences.
Teachers shape the school curriculum by sharing

experiences that they have and the resources they are
capable of giving or imparting to the learners.

2. Visit the Learning Resource Center of a school. Interview the

media/learning resource staff. How does technology help in delivery the
curriculum?
Technology has great role in delivering the curriculum
especially on today’s age. Day to day discussions are
becoming easy through the use of technology. Also,
recording or keeping the results of evaluation had
become relatively handy. In the classroom context,
instead of the traditional/chalkboard discussion,
Powerpoint presentations are used thus, making the
learning enjoyable as well as interactive.
3. Interview a faculty member or an administrator. Ask what criteria they

use in evaluating their school curriculum.
The objectives of the curriculum or teaching plan are the

most important curriculum criteria.
I’ve asked one faculty member, he said that to evaluate the

curriculum, we should follow the following criteria in a
form of questions as follows:
a. Are the goals of the curriculum achievable and does

it leads to competitiveness of the learners, local and
abroad.
b. Do the resources of the school enough to implement
a curriculum?
c. Do the students take part in the school curriculum
implementation?
d. Do some of the planned goals relate to the society or
the community in which the curriculum will be
implemented or teaching will be done?
e. Do some of the planned goals relate to the individual
learners and his/her need, purposes, interest and
abilities.

My Map
To attain my target, I should do the following:
3. Write insights/reflections on these
innovations.
2. Interview faculty members on the merits and demerits

of these innovations.
1. Visit DepEd or interview school

administrators on various curricular
issues and concerns
52
My Enriching Activities
Select one innovation and complete the discussion web below. Interview
Education students to get their ideas on curricular innovations.
YES NO
• The world is changing so Do we really • DEPED must first solve

error free text books.
• International test results

lagging way behind increase because of extra
practically in education. two years.
My Conclusions
One of the greatest curricular innovations as of today in the educational
system of the Philippines is the K-12 curriculum. It’s a new system in
which it follows the principle that the child is the center of learning;
thus, using the progressivist point of view and eliminating or reducing
the role of the teacher as the only main source of knowledge.
In this new curriculum, the teacher had become the facilitator of

learning. It’s a curriculum that decongest, the educational system which
gave way to more competitive learners in local and abroad.
I firmly believe that the K-12 program has its own pros and cons, and
yes, we really need to innovate and improve the new system, and to
change for a better not for worst. We innovate to come up with which is
something new, more pleasant, and to improve the quality of teaching
here in our country.
