—----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Definition of Curriculum
-
Currere (latin)
Known as the means and materials
with which students interact for the
purpose of achieving identified
education outcomes
Glossary of Education Reforms
-
knowledge and skills students are
expected to learn which include
learning standards and learning
objectives they are expected to
meet; units and lessons that
teachers teach; assignments and
projects; books, materials, videos,
presentations, and readings; tests
and assessments and other
methods of evaluation
John Dewey
-
Curriculum is a continuous
reconstruction; moving from child’s
present experience out into that
represented by the organized bodies of
truth we called as studies; the various
studies that they experience
Indiana Department of Education
-
planned interaction of students with
instructional content, materials,
resources, and processes for evaluating
the attainment of education objectives
Characteristics of an ideal Curriculum
-
-
-
Systematic and organized
Explicitly states the outcomes
(knowledge & skills) the
learners/students have to achieve
and learn through the use of planned
instructional processes in a specific
Period
Consists of a planned process of
measurement, assessment, and
evaluation to gauge student learning
Designed for students
BSMT Curriculum
-
-
-
-
-
Four-year program consisting of

courses that students are expected
to complete within the first 3 years;
Fourth year is dedicated to
internship in CHED-accredited
training laboratories affiliated
with their college/department

established on May 18, 1994
RA 7722, Higher Education Act of
1992
under the Office of the President of
the Philippines that covers both
public and private institutions

Number of units
Lecture
1 unit = 1 hour/week
3 units lecture = 3 hours/week
3 hours x 18 weeks (one sem) = 54 hours
Laboratory
1 unit lab = 3 hours/week
TOTAL:
5 units (3 units lec, 2 units lab)
Meaning, there is total of 3 hours for lecture
and 6 hours for laboratory every week
General Education Courses
-
aim to develop foundational
knowledge, skills, values, and
habits necessary for students to
succeed in life; to positively
contribute to society; to understand
diversity of cultures; to gain bigger
perspective and understanding of
living with others; to respect
differences in opinions; to realize
and accept their weakness and
improve on them; and to further
hone their strengths
Understanding the Self
Readings in Philippine
History
Mathematics in Modern
World
Purposive Communication

Medical Technology/Clinical Laboratory Science Education
—----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Assessment
-
-
Inherent in every learning activity
Involves a planned, systematic, and
organized way of testing, measuring,
collecting, and obtaining necessary
information to gain feedback on
students’ progress against set
standards per course and on the
effectivity of teaching methodology
The feedback comes from both
students and teachers.
Functions of Assessment Techniques
-
-
-
Provides feedback on the progress
of students.
Identifies flaws in the psychomotor
skills and deficiencies in theoretical
knowledge and conceptual skills.
Serves as a diagnostic tool to
determine the capabilities of
students.
Motivation to improve students’
skills.
Provides information on students’
response to learning strategy.
It provides info if the teacher needs
to improve.
It determines demonstrable changes
in attitude and behavior of students.
It determines whether learning has
taken place.
Types of Assessment
Formative
- Done to determine whether a
student is achieving outcomes of the
topic being discussed.
- Done during and or/within the
instructional process of a course
i.e. quizzes, short-answer questions,
reflection papers
Summative
- Done at the end of the instruction,
grading period (prelim, midterms,
finals)
- Done to determine how well each
student learned the tasks or how
well the students attained learning
outcomes.
i.e. end of unit exam, end of term exam,
research term paper, final projects
Diagnostic
- Given prior to instruction
- It is a gauge what students already
know and do not know about the
topic at hand.
Assessment Tools
Lower-order thinking skills
(LOTS)
i.e. matching type, true or false
Higher-order thinking skills
(HOTS)
i.e. enumeration, essay, case
studies
Sample Assessment Tools
• Teacher-made written test
• Reflection paper
• Portfolios
• Performance tasks
• Oral exam and presentation
• Rubrics
