progressive curriculum, there is a quality of

My Analysis
1. Why do we need to consider the traditional and
progressive points of view of curriculum?
So that we should transfer the traditional one to
progressive. Nowadays, there is really a need to have a
progressive curriculum because todays generation is far
different from that of the past. We must need to suit the
needs of the time. Everything is changing yet it has a good
outcome for everyone.
My Reflections/ My Insights
Language is dynamic as well as the curriculum. We have
different curriculum in the past and in the present. We are now in a
globally competitive world. A world that also needs competitive
teachers and students. So, how will you become competitive if your
curriculum is traditional? And if it doesnt aware of the new learnings
of today?
Students now are fond of using computers. They will probably
choose going to the computer shop than going to school. As a teacher,
what will you do? Dont be a boring teacher! An effective way of
solving this kind of phenomena is that the teachers must use
technology in teaching. Make it as your partner in delivering a lesson
so that the students will not get bored. Make a teaching-learning
process lively and meaningful.

My Analysis
1. How important is the schools vision, mission and goals in designing the
curriculum?
My Reflections/ My Insights
The school should have its vision, mission and goals
so that the students have a rule to be followed. This helps
the students to be morally upright. In this institution, there
are lots of things that Ive learned. This is the type of school
that has a quality of education. As a student, there are lots
of Dos and Donts to be followed. And this made me
become a better person.

surroundings/environment.
My Analysis
1. Explain why teaching and learning give life and meaning to the curriculum.
Teaching and learning give life and meaning to the curriculum because this is
the process wherein the teacher and the students interact with each other
interchangeably or vice versa. If there is an effective teaching-learning process, its
really a big help to the curriculum. Its a big honor because each complements and
supplements each other. The value placed in teaching will reap the same value in
learning. Thus, a good curriculum can be judged by the kind if teaching and the
quality of learning derived from it.
2. Discuss why the deluge of information poses a great challenge to both teaching
and learning.
The curriculum seems to be overloaded since it has too many subjects to
cover, too many topics to be discuss. Sometimes, the curriculum is fragmented or is
simply bowed. Unfortunately, the learners life is not compartmentalized.
My Reflections/ My Insights
I LIKE TEACHING BECAUSE...
For me this is a very challenging and exiting
profession of all. Teaching is the noblest of all
profession. I like teaching because It molds the hearts,
minds and hands of students. If you are really an
effective and efficient teacher, you could touch your
students lives. You will be their inspiration and they will
never forget you for the rest of their lives.

For example in English, the topic is part of speech. So, to discuss all the parts
of speech, you should organize fist 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.
My Analysis
1. Why is there a need to articulate the lessons from grade school to high school?
There is a need to articulate the lessons from grade school to high school that
there is a connection between the lower level and the next level. So that if the
students are entering high school, they will not be surprised because the lessons s
still related when they are in elementary. As a teacher, you should discuss the
lesson from step by step, the lesson should be organized. The teacher must not
jump into another topic without finishing the previous one.
My Reflections/ My Insights
As a teacher, I need to understand fully well the
dimensions of curriculum design because
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.

Be a well-developed teacher!
As a future teacher, this is a big challenge to me. Could I
become an effective and efficient teacher someday? Could I
effectively use my head, hearts and hands in helping my students
to be better? According to Dr. Koo the teacher should use the 3Hs
in teaching the students. Headteaching lots of ideas to learning,
by molding them academically; Heartshelps them if they have a
problem/s, be a compassionate teacher; and Handsbe helpful,
be approachable, we should not help the students through
financial aspects but we could help them through giving advices
