This model organizes learning into the following five pillars 1. Learning to KNOW – the development of skills and knowledge needed to function in this world e.g. formal acquisition of literacy, numeracy, critical acquisition of literacy, numeracy, critical thinking, and general knowledge. 2. Learning to DO – the acquisition of applied skills linked to professional success. 3. Learning to Live Together – the development of social skills and values such as respect and concern for others, and the appreciation of cultural diversity. 4. Learning to BE – the learning that contributes to a person’s mind, body, and spirit. Skills include creativity and personal discovery, acquired through reading, the internet, and activities such as sports and arts. 5. Learning to Transform Oneself and Society – when individuals and groups gain knowledge, develop skills, and acquire new values as a result of learning, they are equipped with tools and ___________________________________________________________ mindsets for creating lasting change in organizations, communities, and societies.

With these ___________________________________________________________ advancements, different processes of learning and the methods to facilitate these have evolved. Multiple ways are: 1. Face to face when learners and teachers are confined in the same learning space at the same time with the teacher facilitating learning. 2. Distance learning when teaching learning is mediated by traditional (modules in print) or modern technology (online or offline) without the physical presence of the teacher in a virtual class. It can be synchronous or asynchronous. 3. Blended modalities when teaching and learning is facilitated through face to face or distance learning which enable to the teachers and learners to have both physical presence and physical absence in the teaching-learning process. 4. Experiential and lifelong when learners are immersed into the real-life situation, such that learning becomes more authentic and meaningful. New Types of Learners - Does now have age boundaries. Learners maybe are in an informal, formal or informal setting. - A confident person who thinks independently and critically and who communicates effectively - Self-directed and who questions, reflects and takes responsibility for his/her own learning ___________________________________________________________ - A concerned citizen, informed about the world and local affairs, has a strong sense of civic responsibilities and participates actively in improving the lives of others - A member of the new generation: pop-culture, different ways of thinking, responding. Personal Qualities of a Good Teacher 1. Intelligence 2. Compassion 3. Emotional Stability 4. Innovativeness 5. Fairness 6. Professionalism 7. Drive 8. Self-confidence 9. Cooperativeness 10. Buoyancy – soft/flexible but firm 11. Reliability Global Education and Global Teacher Global Education ___________________________________________________________ - UNESCO defines global education as a goal to develop countries worldwide and is aimed at educating all people in accordance with world standards. - A curriculum that is international in scope which prepares today’s youth around the world to function in one world environment under teachers who are intellectually, professionally, and humanistically prepared. - About the diversity understanding the difference and teaching the different cultural groups in their own context to achieve the goals of global education as presented by the United Nations. Global Teachers - Who is competent and armed with enough skills, appropriate attitude and universal values to teacher learners at home or abroad but is equipped with both time tested as well as modern technologies in education in any time and any place in the world. - Who thinks and acts both locally and globally with worldwide perspectives, but is teaching in the communities, localities, towns, provinces, and regions where he or she is situated. ___________________________________________________________ Professional Education: THE TEACHER AND THE SCHOOL CURRICULUM The Nature of Curriculum The Curriculum - A complex and broad term to be defined - The cumulative tradition or organized knowledge - The sum total of all learning content, experiences and resources - Everything that which goes on with in the school “The Sabre-Tooth Curriculum by Harold Benjamin (1939) The story was written in 1939. Curriculum then, was seen as a tradition of organized knowledge taught in schools of the 19th century. Two centuries later, the concept of a curriculum has broadened to include several modes of thoughts or experiences. Perspectives: Traditional Progressive – A product (what?); can be seen or present or present inside the schools; e.g. materials and equipment – Both a process (how?) and a product; a material or an experience – Never changing; permanent – Ever changing; dynamic – Just planned; intentional ___________________________________________________________ – Can be planned; unintentional – Obvious – Includes those that are hidden Theorist – Hold individual notion about curriculum A. Traditional Point of View 1. Franklin Babbit – Father of curriculum – Coined the term curriculum – Published the first book of curriculum development “The Curriculum” – A preparation for adult life – “For the future” 2. Werret Charters – Curriculum is just a subject or content 3. William Kilpatrick – Proponent of project method – An activity or purposive activity 4. Harold Rugg – Curriculum is a planned activity – Should give emphasis on the teaching of social science/studies 5. Hollis Caswell – A set of experience – Should revolve around things about social functions 6. Ralph Tyler – It’s just an extension of the philosophy of the school and the teacher (set of beliefs) ___________________________________________________________ 7. Robert Hutchins – Curriculum is a permanent study 8. Arthur Bestor – A course of study (list of subject, syllabus); mission of the school should be intellectual training, 9. Joseph Shwab – A field of study or discipline – Compose of multiple subjects revolve around one academic study 10. Phillip Phenix – curriculum should consist entirely of knowledge which comes from various disciplines. B. Progressive Point of View 1. John Dewey – education is experiencing; reflective thinking 2. Holin Caswell and Kenn Campbell – all experiences children have under the guidance of teachers. 3. Othaniel Smith, William Stanley and Harlan Shore – sequence of potential experiences 4. Colin Marsh and George Willis – all experiences in the classroom which are planned and enacted by the teacher and also learned by the students. These theorists all agree that curriculum is a SCIENCE, a systematic/logical/purposive/well-arranged Three Ways of Approaching a Curriculum 1. Curriculum as a Content or body of Knowledge – curriculum as a topic outline, subject matter, or concepts to be included in the syllabus or books. 2. Curriculum as a Process ___________________________________________________________ – curriculum links to the content; how to teach the content; the process will result in various curriculum experiences for the learners. 3. Curriculum as a Product – a student equipped with the knowledge, skills and values to function effectively and efficiently. The Lesson Plan Lesson Plan – A form of curriculum – With purpose, systematic and logical – Also called “minisculel curriculum” because curriculum share similar components: Lesson Plan 1. Objectives Curriculum 1. Goals - most important - why are we teaching? 2. Subject matter 2. Content - what are you teaching? 3. Learning activities 3. Instruction - how are you teaching? 4. Evaluation - how much? To what extent? 4. Assessment LP and ___________________________________________________________ 5. Assignment ● Alignment – quality is determined if objectives are aligned - Other components are match with the most important components Outcomes-based Education – All are guided by your goals – If the most important component is the objective – You make it clear what your students need to accomplish 1. Objectives a) Three target areas: Cognitive Affective Psychomotor b) Formulation: A – audience is the recipient of the process B – behavior consists the action words C – condition are materials or time needed D – degree is the level of the action c) Cognitive Domain 1. Knowledge – plain and ordinary remembering of facts 2. Comprehension – attach meaning to the fact 3. Application – use of the facts ___________________________________________________________ 4. Analyzing – breaking down the facts 5. Synthesis – putting the facts together; create is to formulate 6. Evaluation – judging the worth or quality of the fact 2. Subject Matter 3. Learning Activities – principles, approaches, methods, strategies, and techniques a. Principles – general rules or doctrines in teaching – all teachers should follow the doctrines b. Approaches – perspective or point of view towards teaching – not agreed upon by all c. Methods – procedure (inductive, deductive) – steps teachers follow when teaching – arrange in order d. Strategies – specific learning activities inside the classroom e. Techniques – personal way of teaching; art of teaching; unique to every teacher 4. Evaluation – interpretation of data for decision making a. Reteaching – fail entirely; not successful b. Remedial – partially successful; reteach weak points ___________________________________________________________ c. Enhancement – exceeded the objectives; add supplementary activities (more difficult) 5. Assignment – optional; a) reinforce the present lesson, b) set the materials for the next lesson Levels of Curriculum The aim is to bring the curriculum to the recipient. 1. Societal Level – started and happens in the society – public stakeholders develop the curriculum 2. Institutional Level – school/university/colleges – agencies of learning (DepEd, TESDA, CHED) – curriculum modification – local educators or lay people are teachers not involve in the actual teaching – transfer curriculum into teachable area 3. Instructional Level – happens inside the classroom – curriculum execution – classroom teachers 4. Experiential Level – learners are present – learners receive the curriculum – learning means change in behaviour Curricularist ___________________________________________________________ These are specialists or professionals in the field of curriculum. Teachers can also be called as a curricularist if he is one of the following: 1. Knower – understands the curriculum; gives attention to the “what of the curriculum” 2. Planner – preparing the curriculum; lesson plan 3. Writer – able to write or preserve the curriculum; for publication 4. Initiator – open minded to change in curriculum 5. Implementer – executes the curriculum; best in the “how?” 6. Innovator – think in a creative way; resourceful 7. Evaluator – check the attainment of the goals Types of Curriculum Operating in School 1. Recommended Curriculum – proposed curriculum by experts, professionals, or agencies of learning – reforms in school e.g. K12 Curriculum – not necessarily written 2. Written Curriculum – converted into written form or document; They come in the form of course of study, syllabi, modules, books or instructional guides among others. A packet of this written curriculum is the teacher’s lesson plan. examples of CHED Memorandum Order, s. 2017: CMO 74 – BEEd ___________________________________________________________ CMO 75 – BSEd CMO 76 – BECEd CMO 77 – SPED CMO 78 – TLE CMO 79 – TVE CMO 80 – PE CMO 81 – Sports Science Education CMO 82 – Culture & Sports Education 3. Taught Curriculum – action implementation; the teacher and the learners will put life to the written curriculum. – The taught curriculum will depend largely on the teaching style of the teacher and the learning style of the learners. 4. Supported Curriculum – materials or facilities that supports the teaching and learning process 5. Assessed Curriculum – anything that we do to check or know if the goal if attained 6. Learned Curriculum – changes in behaviour; the positive outcome of teaching is an indicator of learning. 7. Hidden Curriculum – unintentionally; not deliberately planned, but has a great impact on the behaviour of the learner. Major Types of Curriculum 1. Subject-Centered 2.

Alvin Toffler Wrote the book Future Shock: knowledge should prepare students for the future D. Historical Foundations – answers the question “when?” Theorist Contribution Franklin Bobbit (1876-1956) He started the curriculum movement; Curriculum is a science that emphasizes students’ needs Werret Charters (1875-1952) Objectives and activities should match. William Killpatrick (1875-1952) Curricula are purposeful activities which are child- centered Harold Rugg (1886-1960) Curriculum should develop the whole child. IT IS CHILD-CENTERED. Hollis Caswell (1901-1989) Curriculum is organized around social functions of themes, organized knowledge and learner’s interest. Ralph Tyler Curriculum is a science and an ___________________________________________________________ (1902-1994) extension of school’s philosophy. It is based on students’ needs and interests. Hilda Taba (1902-1967) She contributed to the theoretical and pedagogical foundations of concepts development and critical thinking in social studies curriculum. Peter Oliva (1992-2012) He described how curriculum change is a cooperative endeavor. Curriculum Approaches 1. Behavioral – give attention to the plan or blueprint 2.

Major change or modification in the school system. Example is the K to 12 curriculum. 4. Perturbations. These are changes that are disruptive, but teachers have to adjust to them within a fairly short time. 5. Value orientation. This is a type of curriculum change through which is given to the teachers in response to shifts in emphasis. ___________________________________________________________ Professional Education: THE CHILD AND ADOLESCENT DEVELOPMENT I.

Behavior Modification ● Praise ● Rewards ● Behavior Chart ● Redirection ● Engage ● Visuals ● Extinction ● Direct Instruction What are the four steps of direct instruction? Direct Instruction guides us through intermediary stages to gently transition from teacher to student. 1. Modeling – The teacher does it all. ___________________________________________________________ 2. Structured Practice – The teacher does it, but with input from students. 3. Guided Practice – Students do it, with input from the teacher. 4. Independent Practice – Students do it. Learner-Centered Psychological Principles (LCP) ➔ Focus on psychological factors internal to the learner; acknowledge external ➔ environment that interacts with internal factors ➔ Deal holistically with learners in the context of real-world learning situations ➔ Intended to apply to all learners A. Cognitive and Metacognitive Factors 1. Nature of the learning process – The learning of complex subject matter is most effective when it is an intentional process of constructing meaning from information and experience. 2. Goals of the learning process – The successful learner, over time and with support and instructional guidance, can create meaningful, coherent representations of knowledge. 3. Construction of knowledge – The successful learner can link new information with existing knowledge in meaningful ways. ___________________________________________________________ 4. Strategic thinking – The successful learner can create and use a repertoire of thinking and reasoning strategies to achieve complex learning goals. 5. Thinking about thinking – Higher order strategies for selecting and monitoring mental operations facilitate creative and critical thinking. 6. Context of learning – Learning is influenced by environmental factors, including culture, technology, and instructional practices. B. Motivational and Affective Factors 7. Motivational and emotional influences on learning – What and how much is learned is influenced by the learner’s motivation. Motivation to learn is influenced by the individual's emotional states, beliefs, interests and goals, and habits of thinking. 8. Intrinsic motivation to learn – The learner's creativity, higher order thinking, and natural curiosity all contribute to motivation to learn. Intrinsic motivation is stimulated by tasks of optimal novelty and difficulty, relevant to personal interests, and providing for personal choice and control. 9. Effects of motivation on effort ___________________________________________________________ – Acquisition of complex knowledge and skills requires extended learner effort and guided practice. Without learners' motivation to learn, the willingness to exert this effort is unlikely without coercion C. Developmental and Social Factors 10. Developmental influences on learning – As individuals develop, there are different opportunities and constraints for learning. Learning is most effective when differential development within and across physical, intellectual, emotional, and social domains is taken into account 11. Social influences on learning. – Learning is influenced by social interactions, interpersonal relations, and communication with others. D. Individual Differences Factors 12. Individual differences in learning – Learners have different strategies, approaches, and capabilities for learning that are a function of prior experience and heredity 13. Learning and diversity – Learning is most effective when differences in learners' linguistic, cultural, and social backgrounds are taken into account 14. Standards and assessment – Setting appropriately high and challenging standards and assessing the learner as well as learning progress - including ___________________________________________________________ diagnostic, process, and outcome assessment - are integral parts of the learning process. Summary of 14 LCP (Murphy and Alexander) 1. The knowledge base – One’s knowledge serves as the foundation of all future learning. 2. Strategic processing and control – Learners can develop skills to reflect and regulate their thoughts and behaviors in order to learn more effectively. 3. Motivation and effect – Factors such as intrinsic motivation, reasons for wanting to learn, personal goals and enjoyment of learning tasks all have a crucial role in the learning process. 4. Development and Individual Differences – Learning is a unique journey for each person because each learner has his own unique combination of genetic and environmental factors that influence him. Three Parts of Self Concept Self-concept – how we see ourself; how we perceive our behaviors, abilities, and unique characteristics 1.

Longitudinal – studies and follows through a single group over a period of time, usually several years or more 6. Cross-sectional – individuals of different ages are compared at one time 7. Sequential – combined cross-sectional and longitudinal approaches to learn about lifespan development ___________________________________________________________ 8. Action Research – reflective process of progressive problem-solving led by individuals working with others in teams or as part of a community of practice to improve the way they address issues and solve problems; stems from their own questions about and reflections on their everyday classroom practice F. Data-gathering Techniques: 1. Observation – can be made in laboratories or natural settings 2. Physiological Measures – certain indicators of children’s development are measured 3. Standardized – prepared tests that assess individuals’ performance in different domains 4.

Research procedures must never harm children, physically or psychologically 2. Children and their families have the right to full information about the research, including possible risks and benefits; Decision must be based on informed consent 3. Children’s questions about the research should be answered in a truthful manner and in ways that children can understand; Researchers must be honest and clear in their communication ___________________________________________________________ 4. There should be respect for privacy. Information obtained through research with children should remain confidential. Researchers should not disclose personal information or identity of participants H. Impact of Teachers’ Research Involvement on Teachers 1. Teachers who have been involved in research may become more reflective, more critical, and analytical in their teaching, and more open and committed to professional development. 2. participating in teacher research also helps teachers become more deliberate in their decision-making and actions in the classroom 3. Teacher research develops professional dispositions of lifelong learning, reflective and mindful teaching, and self-transformation 4. Engaging in teacher research may lead to rethinking and reconstructing what it means to be a teacher or teacher educator and the way teachers relate to children and students 5. Teacher research has potential to demonstrate to teachers and prospective teachers that learning connected to learning to inquire to teach is inherently ___________________________________________________________ Professional Education: FACILITATING LEARNER-CENTERED TEACHING From “sage on the stage” to “guide on the side” Metacognition A.

Behaviorism – a theory of learning based on the idea that all behaviors are acquired through conditioning, and conditioning occurs through interaction with the environment PCSO: Pavlov-Classical Skinner-Operant A. Classical Conditioning ➔ Ivan Pavlov ➔ stimulus response ___________________________________________________________ ➔ stimulus is a condition that initiates a response ➔ response is the reaction to a specific stimulus ➔ based on ADHESIVE principle, or S-R, a response is attached to a stimulus through the stimulus occurring just prior to the response so that the recurrence of the stimulus will evoke or cause the response. ➔ Habituation - Decrease tendency to respond to stimuli that become more familiar 1. Neutral Stimulus – no response; ignored stimulus 2. Unconditional Stimulus – automatic response; no training 3. Conditioned Stimulus – learned response; with training ___________________________________________________________ John Watson’s Little Albert Experiment: Understanding fears, love, phobias and prejudice John B. Watson – Father of Behaviorism Principles of Classical Conditioning: a. Stimulus Generalization – CR occurs to stimuli that are similar to CS; the ability to behave in a new situation in a way that has been learned in other similar situations. b. Extinction – when the CS appear without the USC; the CR disappear c. Spontaneous Recovery – after extinction, the CS reappears and elicits CR d. Discrimination – CR only occurs to CS and not unreinforced stimuli ___________________________________________________________ e. High Order Conditioning – first-order and second-order conditioning; associating another condition to different situation B. Connectionism ➔ Edward Thorndike ➔ consists of associations (or connections) between stimuli and responses (associative learning theory) Laws of Learning 1.

Law of Exercise – “practice makes perfect;” repetition is basic to the development of adequate responses 4. Law of Recency – things most recently learned are best remembered 5. Law of Primacy – the state of being first, often creates a strong impression; old information is more remembered 6. Law of Intensity – the more intense the material taught, the more likely it will be retained 7. Law of Requirement – you have to have something before you do something; prerequisite Stages of Learning ● Acquisition ● Fluency ___________________________________________________________ ● Generalization ● Adaptation C. Operant Conditioning ➔ B.F Skinner ➔ learn to behave in such a way as to obtain rewards and avoid punishments; learning is based on the association of consequences to one’s behaviour ➔ punishment: to weakens behaviour, reinforcement: to strengthen behaviour ➔ using pleasant and unpleasant consequences to control the occurrence of behavior Kinds of Reinforcement: a. Verbal – praise, encouragement ___________________________________________________________ b. Physical – touch, pats, hugs c. Non-vebal – smiles, winks, warm looks d. Activity – being allowed to play games/to listen music e. Token – points, chips, stars Principles of Reinforcement: 1. Shaping – reinforcing successive steps to reach a desired behavior 2. Chaining – reinforcing a series of behaviors to get a reward 3. Extinction – occur if behavioral response is no longer reinforced Schedule of Reinforcement: 1. Continuous Reinforcement – reinforcement after every correct response 2. Partial Reinforcement – reinforcement after some correct response Interval Schedules Fixed-Interval Schedule reinforcement is given in a fixed amount of time after a correct response ex: studying for a weekly quiz Variable-Interval Schedule given an average ex: winning a amount of time video game after a correct response ___________________________________________________________ Ratio Schedules Fixed-Ratio Schedule number of actions or efforts; fixed number of correct response ex: getting one free meal after the purchase of ten Variable-Ratio Schedule average number of correct response ex: the number of shots to score a goal D. Purposive Behaviorism ➔ Edward Tolman ➔ reinforcement is not essential ➔ learning is purposive and goal-oriented ➔ often referred to as Sign Learning Theory ➔ organisms learns by pursuing signs to a goal ➔ stressed the relationship between stimuli rather than stimulus – response. 1.

Law of Similarity – states that when things appear to be similar to each other, we group them together (e.g. compile same areas into one unit) 2. Law of Proximity – things closer to each other appear more related than things farther apart; distance; closer = unity ___________________________________________________________ 3. Law of Closure – fill in the missing parts of a design to create a whole; tendency to complete an incomplete shape in order to rationalize the whole 4. Law of Pragnanz – when you're presented with a set of ambiguous or complex objects, your brain will make them appear as simple as possible 5. Law of Figure-Ground – the tendency of the visual system to simplify a scene into the main object that we are looking at and everything else that forms the background; emphasized 6.

Thou shall not provide opaque directions to students regarding how to respond to your assessment instruments. (unclear instructions = confused learners) 2. Thou shall not employ ambiguous statements in your assessment items. 3. Thou shall not provide students with unintentional clues regarding appropriate responses. 4. Thou shall not employ complex syntax in your assessment items. 5. Thou shall not use vocabulary that is more advanced than required. Scoring Errors and Biases 1. Leniency Error or Generosity Error – add 2. Severity Error or Strictness Error – subtract 3. Central Tendency Error – all became average scores Process of Making a Test A. Planning 1. Objectives ___________________________________________________________ 2. Table of Specifications/Competency – blueprint or map guides in making a test to balance the difficulty of test items 3. Decide on format B. Test Construction 1. Item writing stage based on TOS 2. Consult experts for validation of test C. Test Administration – try out phase 1. Trial 1 – 50-100 other students; first item analysis; first options analysis; rewrite or revise items 2. Trial 2 – 50-100 other students; first item analysis; first options analysis; finalize test items D. Evaluation Stage 1. Administer the exam 2. Test validity and reliability Item Analysis: Discrimination and Difficulty Index A. Discrimination Index – discriminates higher group from lower group; 27% upper and 27% lower formula: Upper Group - Lower Group Total of both group 1. Positive Discrimination Index – more from the higher group got the items correctly; retain 2. Negative Discrimination Index – more from the lower group got the items correctly; reject a. why? there is a confusion; low reliability of item ___________________________________________________________ 3. Zero Discrimination Index – cannot discriminate; either all are correct or wrong; equal number of students in upper and lower groups got correct answers; reject Index Interpretation Decision 0.2 and below poor reject 0.21 to 1 Moderate to high Retain B. Difficulty Index – easiness of the items; 27% upper and 27% lower Index Interpretation Decision 0.81 - 1 Very Easy Reject 0.61 - 0.80 Easy Revise 0.41 - 0.60 Moderate Retain 0.21 - 0.40 Difficult Revise 0 - 0.20 Very difficult Reject Note: If discrimination index is moderate to high, proceed to the difficulty index. Don’t decide yet if you reject/retain, refer to the difficulty index. If discrimination index is poor, refer to the changed difficulty index below: Index Interpretation Decision ___________________________________________________________ 0.81 - 1 Very Easy Reject 0.61 - 0.80 Easy Reject 0.41 - 0.60 Moderate Revise 0.21 - 0.40 Difficult Reject 0 - 0.20 Very difficult Reject Characteristics of Good Test I.
