My REFLECTIONS:
SINGCO, KATHLEEN O.
Traditional point of view in the classroom is that the teacher is preparing her
lesson plan for her/ his students to discuss. Progressive point of view in the classroom
is actualized by the learner or experiences of the individual.
For me, it is better to balance their curriculum to use. Teacher should not use all
the time the traditional because it makes the students bored in the class. As a future
teacher, I will implement progressive to the classroom so that the students will
participate in the class and apply the intended and desired learning outcomes.
BARRERA, MARIVIC V.
In this episode, I’m able to distinguish the traditional curriculum from progressive
curriculum. As a future teacher someday, I need to be a good curricularist in such a way
that I know how to implement a curriculum which is more effective for my teaching-
learning process. Though I need to start with the basic one which is the traditional but I
want to do my best to get into the progressive one because as what I’ve observed in the
class I’m assigned, the common curriculum used by the teachers are traditional which I
knew that it is not effective because there is no interaction and application at all in the
learners’ side.
PANELAGA, LOVELY V.
My PERSONAL INSIGHTS
SINGCO, KATHLEEN O.
I interviewed one teacher regarding the points of view of her curriculum. The
teacher said that it is really hard for her to use the progressive curriculum because
some students are not equipped with ideas and not a fast learner. That is why she
needed to balance it, but at the end of her lessons there will be activities to do and there
will be a teacher-students interaction also.
As a future teacher, I would not let those restraining forces prevail since this is
the gap for the teacher and students to foresee the lessons failure. I should keep the
standard so that there will be progressive and at the same time there will be a teacher-
students interaction and student-student interactions.
BARRERA, MARIVIC V.
There are two types of curriculum which is the traditional and progressive, and
we need to consider the two point of view of curriculum, because in classroom, a
diverse student could be fund. So as a future mentor, we must hit our teaching to the
needs of everyone in our class.
I do believe that knowing the two curriculums which is the traditional and
progressive will enhance those skills of a teacher as a curricularist. The teacher
engaged fully to the progressive one in order to be more effective and at the same time
his/her learners’ fully equipped with knowledge and ready for the future.

Some schools are still using traditional curriculum and others are using both.
Upon looking on what curriculum they are involved, those school who uses both
curriculum (traditional and progressive) are in the city and these two schools who uses
the traditional is the uptown school. Shall we say, these schools nearby city are using
both curriculum as they implemented technologies and any other supported curriculum
while the uptown schools they are still using the traditional because most of the
students cannot afford or there is no available technologies like computers for their
advance studies and learning.
If I would be on their own shoes, I would still drive those driven forces that could
make benefits of the students to learn. Teacher is an innovator, artistic, knower and etc.
It is not a hindrance or an excuse to the teacher that if they are in rural area assigned
school they cannot provide best to their lessons. If there is a will there is a way.
BARRERA, MARIVIC V.
As I asked my friend who is a student in BNHS, she said that the curriculum they
are using are both which is the traditional and progressive. Some teacher still using the
tradition and some are progressive. In my own opinion, I should consider the
progressive since DepEd want the progressive curriculum to be used.
As what I’ve seen, each school had its own curriculum. Some are using
traditional and some are using progressive. There are different kinds of character and
attitude of the students we interviewed that come up with the thought of “individual
differences” that may lead to a competitive individual and the school as well.
When I interviewed my friend and teacher, based on their answer are not the
same. There are some says a traditional and some says both. With these, the traditional
and both curriculum still exist on the classroom. It depends only to the teacher, what
curriculum they are using.
PANELAGA, LOVELY V.
As I interviewed, some say that the traditional and progressive curriculum are
both important because there are some cases the teacher should use the traditional
curriculum although it is the old way of teacher but still it is effective. In progressive
curriculum this is the way of teaching that let students to do their own. It is more on
application.
MY ANALYSIS
SINGCO, KATHLEEN O.
One of the teachers that I interviewed, she mentioned about the scholastic
standard on her class. She says that her class cannot understand her as she is always
speaking fluently English all the time. The subject that she handles is English. She told
us also about her adjustment approaches to her learners.
For me, it is not an excuse for the students if they cannot follow. Communication
is lacking on the classroom and that is why there is no progress at all. The learners
cannot let go of what they use all the time which is the traditional. How can these
students learned and develop their critical thinking if these students will not let go on the
traditional? The only solution for these burden sides of the teacher is that the teacher
should make an actualization not just by reading and writing. The teacher should
develop the student to communicate, develop their listening skills and develop their
critical thinking so that the classroom will impose the progressivism.
BARRERA, MARIVIC V.
In our observation, there are different classes and subjects that we’ve observed.
And because of that, the students must be ready for their different subjects so that they
can rely on their teacher’s lesson. In every diff. subjects and teacher there are diff.
methods and strategies they are using, and depends on the teacher on how they will
delivered their topic.

MY REFLECTION
SINGCO, KATHLEEN O.
In this activity, I learned about how to indicate the process and product in the
lesson. Simply, it is the intended learning outcomes and desired learning outcome.
As a future teacher, I would make my lesson plan readable and objective SMART
(Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic and Timely. Overall, it will be effective in
teaching process.
BARRERA, MARIVIC V.
Based on my observation, In every subjects there must be different content process and
product in order for the learners to understand. What you have been discussed to them
by using different methods and strategies.
In this episode, I learned about the approaches about the curriculum which can
help me as a future teacher someday because it talks about the content or body of
knowledge to be transmitted to my future learners, then the product or the learning
outcomes desired of learners and lastly the process or what actually happens in the
classroom when I will practiced the curriculum in the future. I need this to know because
some teachers nowadays are not fully exposed with this approaches and failed to aim
their leaning desired for their students.

MY INSIGHTS
SINGCO, KATHLEEN O.
In this activity, it discusses the understanding of the teacher about the 6 criteria
which are significance, validity, usefulness, learnability, feasibility and interest of the
teacher towards to her students.
BARRERA, MARIVIC V.
If I will the teacher in that section,for me criteria is very helpful and useful to the teacher
because through this, he/she can determined wether the learners have learned the topic
that she has been discussed. It is also very important ,as a teacher to know the
teaching in the students or the learning outcome.
The teacher must be knowledgeable enough so that they can sustain their lesson
on how to deliver. He teacher knows their subject well. They’ve mastered the content
and know how to communicate it to appropriate grade levels. The teacher never stops
learning and growing themselves. They find creative ways to upgrade their lesson plans
and pedagogy.
PANELAGA, LOVELY V.
As a future teacher someday I will used different learning styles or strategies during
my discussion so that my students are able to understand. I will give some examples

MY ANALYSIS
SINGCO, KATHLEEN O.
According to Ralph Tyler “When you make curriculum there should be a planning
phase”. Teacher should always be ready on her lesson and adopt her curriculum
mapping. Make a plan which is visible and phenomenal in order to attain the BASIC
principles of curriculum content and apply those 6 criteria.
BARRERA, MARIVIC V.
The teacher demonstrates they can make a connection with students. They show that
they genuinely enjoy students, knowing kids learn better when they believe the teacher
likes them. The teacher possesses the tools and process by which they assess the
students’ understanding of the subject. They utilize a system for measuring student
growth. The teacher creates an atmosphere that’s conducive for learning. They find
ways to keep every student in the game. No assignment enables a student to give up.
The teacher pursues the marginalized student. The teacher knows their subject well.
They’ve mastered the content and know how to communicate it to appropriate grade
levels. The teacher never stops learning and growing themselves. They find creative
ways to upgrade their lesson plans and pedagogy. They are a stream not a pond. It’s
important the teacher has a clear voice in the classroom, but also that students do as
well. The course experience should not be a talking head, a one way transmission of
data the students’ needs and make up should inform the pedagogy.

MY PERSONAL INSIGHTS
SINGCO, KATHLEEN O.
With this activity, administrator consoles the teachers on the curriculum model.
As a future educator, I would make sure that the curriculum model will be sure to be
implemented and meet. The best feature of the curriculum is the objectives that have
SMART ideas.
Nowadays, there are already man made lesson plan. It is better to make a lesson plan
that really comes from your own words because you will know what would be the best
for your students and already know your student’s standard and capabilities. Overall
there will be a good assessment to yourself and to your learners as well.
BARRERA, MARIVIC V.
The curriculum is a dynamic process that involves the diff. implementers and
procedures. And it should have and objective/ goals. The learners are provided varied
learning to achieve their opportunities in educational goals.

SINGCO, KATHLEEN O.
According to Galen Saylor and William Alexander that “a plan for providing sets
of learning opportunities to achieve broad educational goals and related specific
objectives for an identifiable population served by a single school center”. According to
the administrator Mrs. Cadayday this is the usually used in their school. They can meet
the effectivity of their lesson plan if every teacher should participate in the
implementation process of the curriculum.
BARRERA, MARIVIC V.
In this paper we will explore several models of teaching and learning. According
to Gage & Berliner state that the use of models as learning aides have two primary
benefits. First, models provide "accurate and useful representations of knowledge that is
needed when solving problems in some particular domain. Second, a model makes the
process of understanding a domain of knowledge easier because it is a visual
expression of the topic. The teachers need to found that students who study models
before a lecture may recall as much as more on questions concerning conceptual
information than students who receive instruction without the advantage of seeing and
discussing models.
According to Hilda Taba’s model, the students or the learners should undergo to
the Taba’s model, it is because it through this model the learners are free to what they
want and the can develop their knowledge of being a students.
And also for the teacher, they should have an objectives or goals of formulating their
objectives.
PANELAGA, LOVELY V.
My analysis on this is simply put models deal with the ways in which learning
environments and instructional experiences can be constructed, sequenced, or
delivered. They may provide theoretical or instructional frameworks, patterns, or
examples for any number of educational components curricula, teaching techniques,
instructional groupings, classroom management plans, content development,
sequencing, delivery, the development of support materials, presentation methods, etc.
Teaching models may even be discipline or student-population specific.
