-syllabus{means a list of the topics
or books that will be studied in a course} Robert M. Hutchins
Curriculum as "permanent studies"
3 Rs are: reading, writing, and arithmetic - a widely used abbrevition for the basic elements of a primary school curriculum:reading, 'riting{writing} and 'rithmetic{arithmetic}. Arthur Bestor • Curriculum should focus on the fundamental intellectual disciplines of grammar, literature and writing.Include mathematics, science, history and foreign language. Joseph Schwab
-the sole source of curriculum is discipline
-is derived into chunks of knowledge -call subjects areas in basic education such as English, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies and others -in college discipline include Humanities, Sciences and Languages. Progressive Points of View of Curriculum JOHN DEWY'S Definition of experience and education.Derived from action but tested by application. CASWELL and CAMPHELL All experience children have under the guidance. This definition is school by Smith, Stanley and Shores, that in the school for the purpose of disciplining children and youth in group ways of thinking and acting. MARSH and WILLIS Experiences in the classroom which are planned and enacted by the teacher, and also learned by the students RALPH TYLER MODEL 4 Fundamental Principles are: 1. What educational purposes should the school seek to attain? 2. What educational experiences can be provided that are to attain these purposes? 3. How can these educational experiences be effectively organized? 4. How can we determine whether these purposes are being attained or not? -To aim standard education, qualified Educational Institution and Faculty -Learning is said to take place through experiences that the learner has such as reactions the student makes to the environment in which he/she is placed. -Organization of educational experiences is to produce a cumultative effect, they most be organized that they reinforce each other. -Evaluation of the experience. It is important to check that the plans for learning experiences are functioning to guide the teacher in producing the outcomes for evaluation. HILDA TABA MODEL Her advocacy was commonly called the “grass-roots” approach • 1. Diagnosis of Needs -Diagnosis of learner needs and expectations of the larger society, the teacher starts the process by identifying the needs of the students for whom the curriculum is to be designed. 2. Formulating Objectives -is measurable and operational. It is tells specific things you will accomplish in your project. The objective should be as clearly and crisply stated as possible. 3. Selecting Content -selection needs to give appropriate balance to subject knowledge, process skills and the development of the student as learner as well as to detain and context. 4. Organizing Contents -it refers to Key concepts, Main ideas, and Facts 5. Selecting Learning Experience -is the interaction between the learner and the external conditions in the environment to which he can react. 6. Organizing Learning Experience -is the process of creating, retaining and transfering knowlegde within an organization. An organization improves over time as it gains experience. From this experience, it is able to create knowlegde. Teaching Strategies for Cognitive Development - is a field of study in neuroscience and psychology focusing on a childs development in terms of information processing, conceptual resources, perceptual skill/, language learning, and other aspects of the developed adult brain and cognitive psychology. 3 Interacting processes in curriculum deveploment Planning is a process of looking at the standards in each subject area and developing a strategy to breakdown those standards so they can be taught to students. ex. standard education Implementing the actual teaching and learning activities taking place in schools through interaction between learners and teachers as well as among learners. ex. How the intented curriculum is translated into practice and actually delivered Evaluating it is a judgement of planning and implementing and the form of formative and summative. 7 Types of Curriculum Operating in Schools Recommended Curriculum -proposed by scholars and professional organizations -it identifies the skills, concepts and content that will be emphasized throughout the learning process -Is often presented by the authority to schools as a policy recommendation w/ a list of goals ans sequence content that suggest the graduation requirements. ex. CHED Written Curriculum -appears in school, district, division or country documents -most made by curriculum experts with the participations of teachers ex. lesson plan Taught Curriculum -What teachers implement or deliver in the classrooms and schools. {also known as Operational Curriculum} ex. activity given by the teachers such as quizzes or exam Supported Curriculum -in order to have a successful teaching other than the teacher, there must be materials which should support or help in the implementation of a written curriculum -support curriculum should enable each learner to achieve real and lifelong learning ex. textbooks,computers,audio visual materials Assessed Curriculum -refers to a tested or evaluated curriculum -at the duration and end of the teaching episodes, series of evaluations are being done by the teachers to determine the extent of teaching or to test if the students are progressing ex. pencil and paper test Learned Curriculum -this refers to the learning outcomes achieved by the students{ also known as Experienced Curriculum} -a learner absorbs or makes sense of as a result of interaction with the teacher, class- fellows or the institution. It includes the knowledge, attitudes and skills acquired by the student. Hidden Curriculum -is the unintended curriculum which is not deliberately planned but may modify behavior or influence learning outcomes ex. influence,school environment,physical conditions,teacher-learner interaction, mood of the teacher QUIZ 1. What are the 7 types of curriculum operating in schools? 2. What do you mean by curriculum according to Arthur Bestor? 3. Why is curriculum important in teaching/learning process? 4. What is the role of teachers in curriculum development? 5. What are the steps are as follows of determining grass-roots approach?
