Selecting Objectives
Evaluation
Stage 1: Identify
desired result
Stage 2: Determine acceptable evidence.
Stage 3: Plan the Learning experiences and instructio
2. Identify the possible strengths and weaknesses if each model when applied to the
Philippines context
Weaknesses
• The objectives has flaws in terms of the reality of curriculum development which
is rarely a fixed or linear process.
• It overlooks the unpredictable nature of teaching and learning. While the model
prescribes specific objectives to achieved, learning occurs beyond these objectives
due to factors that could not be foreseen (Print 1989). The model cannot account
for the many complex outcomes of learning (Brady 1990).
• The other criticism that has been cited is that educational objectives need to
precede the selection and organization of learning experiences (Brady 1990)
• Lastly, the exponents of the rational model, especially Tyler, have been criticized
for not adequately explaining the sources of their objectives (Print 1989).
Strengths
• The one who have to teach curriculum will develop it.
• Teaching- learning experience of the teacher will be considered
• Non-traditional approach- as members of the teaching profession are given
responsibility.
• Needs of the students are given the utmost importance
Weaknesses
• Approaches, methodologies of different teachers are different.
• Assumes that the teachers have the expertise.
• TIME to engage in such extensive curricular activity.
C. Standard-based Curriculum Development
Model Strengths
• The model extends itself up to the development of scope and sequence, which is
important for planning instruction, and for deciding on specific contents and
objectives.
• It is relevance and applicability in any educational institution in developing
curriculum standards for various courses.
• It gives teachers tangible resources and goals, stimulates creativity, and enables
self-reflection.
Weaknesses
• This model is rational and descriptive, stressing the development of standards as
the first activity in the curriculum development.
• This model recognizes teacher’s inputs in the development of standards, which
are often neglected in curriculum projects in the Philippines because of the
topdown approach to curriculum development and implementation.
• In this model, developing curriculum standards is a separate activity from the
overall curriculum development process, this makes the model incomplete.
Weaknesses
• The model is fixed at accepting what standards are prescribed by the government
agency on education.
• Goals are most likely to follow the prescribed content standards set by the
government
E. Systematic Design Model
Strengths
• Recognizes the importance of teachers
• It takes into account the individual differences when matching future
occupations to the aptitude of students.
• Allows the research to influence curriculum processes and encourages a team
approach to curriculum development.
• Some curriculum sources and influences are acknowledged in the process of
curriculum development. These curriculum sources and influences are used to
determine the objectives of the curriculum.
Weaknesses
• It places at the forefront the teacher as the reason for failing schools again
failing to account for the role of the leaner.
• Relies heavily on data
• There’s no provision where curriculum workers can review their actions and
decisions in relation to the factors identified in the first phase. Lack of
research culture in our education institutions.
