Precisely.

C. Presentation We found words on the fans, Sir.

Based on the performance you have just
witnessed, What did you observe?
So what are the words you have found?
We found the words, indigenization,
contextualization, ALS, and Madrasah
ALIVE.

Very good! Not really, Sir.

Are you all familiar with these words?
 Well that is okay. Another question, based Our lesson for today are all about
on those words what do you think is our indigenization, contextualization, ALS, and
lesson for today’s discussion. Madrasah ALIVE

It could be. Thank you for that.

For this afternoon, the topics for today’s

discussion are the Indigenization and
Contextualization of Curriculum,
Alternative Learning System, and Madrasah
Alive.

D. Discussion
Contextualization is the process of
What is Contextualization? considering something in relation to the
situation in which it happens or exists.

Good idea!

So contextualization refers to the

educational process of relating the
curriculum to a particular setting, situation
or area of application to make the
competencies relevant, meaningful and
useful to the learners.

It also has two degrees under it:

1. Localization refers to the process of
relating learning content specified in
the curriculum to local information
and materials in the learners’
community.
2. Indigenization refers to the process
of enhancing curriculum
competencies, education resources,
and teaching-learning processes in
relation to the bio-geographical,
historical, and socio-cultural context
of the learners’ community. When you localize you use information and
materials in your learners’ community but
So based on their definitions, what is their when you indigenize, you enhance
difference? competencies in the curriculum, the
resources, and the teaching learning
processes so that they suit the context of the
 learners’ community.

Very good, class. You really understood the

lesson.
To add up, always remember this “When
we localize, we do not necessarily
indigenize but when we indigenize, we
localize”. Yes, Sir.
Understood, class?

To elaborate the difference between

indigenization and localization, I will
provide examples.

1. Competency: Visualizes, represents and

identifies unit of fractions with
denominators of 10 and below {M2NS-III-
72.2}
 Localization - Use local materials
{fruits in season like watermelon, or Teacher, that shelter is what we call
local kakanin} to visualize fractions kennel.
 Indigenization - community
cultural practices that involve
fractions are used to visualize
None so far, sir but can we get another
fractions {division of harvest during
example to let us deeply understand.
harvest season}
Any question regarding this example?

Ok, Thank you for the honesty.

So, another example.

2. Competency: Visualize the ratio of two

given numbers {M5NS-Iih-22}
 Localization - Use easily
observable examples of ratio in the
community -One jeep - 4 wheels;
one kariton –2 wheels; one tricycle –
3 wheels {depending on what is
most common in the community}
 Indigenization {socio-cultural} -
community activities or cultural
practices that inherently use the
concept of ratio-bringing products to
the market entails using a carabao Yes sir, Thank you.
carrying sacks {one carabao is to x
sacks} By doing hands – on activities, Sir.
Understood, everyone?
By creating an essay after teaching writing
So now my question, How do we skills.
contextualize our lesson?

That’s right. Anything else?

Very good. Thank you for that answer.

In contextualizing our lesson, it should be
structured to encourage five essential forms
of learning:

1. Relating - Learning in the context

of one's life experiences or pre-
existing knowledge.
2. Experiencing - Learning by doing,
through exploration, discovery, and
invention.
3. Applying - Learning by putting
skills to use.
4. Cooperating - Learning through

sharing, responding, and interacting
with others.
5. Transferring - Using knowledge in
a new context or novel situation.

Any questions, clarifications, or violent Alternative Learning System is a parallel

reactions, class?
Very Good. Now let us proceed to our
second topic which is the Alternative
Learning System or ALS.
Before we start, anyone have an idea what is
Alternative Learning System or ALS?
learning system in the Philippines that
provides a practical option to the existing
formal instruction. When one does not
have or cannot access formal education in
schools, ALS is an alternate or substitute.
ALS includes both the non-formal and
informal sources of knowledge and skills.
Very well said.
To add something to what you have said,
The Alternative Learning System (ALS)
is a parallel learning system in the
Philippines that provides opportunities for
out-of-school youth and adult (OSYA)
learners to develop basic and functional
literacy skills, and to access equivalent
pathways to complete basic education.

When it comes to its curriculum, it uses a

contextualized non-formal curriculum
which is substantially aligned with the K to
12 Curriculum for Basic Education of the
formal school system, but it is not the
mirror image of the formal school
curriculum. It is aligned but not identical.
This takes into account the prior learning of
its learners and reflects the indicators of
functional literacy into six interrelated
learning strands.

Here are the six learning strands:

None, Sir.
Yes, Sir.

I think Madrasah ALIVE is about the

Islamic Education in our country.
Any questions?
Are you all sure?
Since none of you have questions, let us
proceed to our last and 3rd topic which is the
Madrasa ALIVE.
.
So anyone have an idea what Madrasah
ALIVE is all about?

Thank you for that insight.

Let us breakdown the two words first. So
Madrasah means that it is a Muslim private
school with core emphasis on Islamic
studies and Arabic literacy. Another
meaning is that it is a privately-operated
school which relies on the support of the
local community or foreign donors,
particularly from Islamic or Muslim
countries.

And ALIVE is an acronym which means:

Arabic
Language
Islamic None so far, Sir.
Values
Education
So it is a program implemented in public
schools which aims to provide additional
subjects on Arabic Language and Islamic
Values in the regular basic education
curriculum.

Any questions?

Ok, now we will continue. So we combined Wow, Madrasah ALIVE do help a lot of
those two words, Madrasah ALIVE. This Muslim people.
aims to provide Muslim learners with
appropriate and relevant educational
opportunities while recognizing their No, Sir.
cultural contexts and unique purposes for
participating in the program offerings and
also it aims to integrate content and
competencies which are relevant and of
interest to Muslim learners.

Yes, One of my favourite programs that was

created by our country.
But do you now there are three general
descriptive types of madrasah in the
Philippines?

It’s okay. That is completely

understandable.

There are three general descriptive types

of madrasah in the Philippines.
1. Traditional or weekend
 madrasah. Instruction is basically
religious. It is considered as non-
formal education due to its
characteristics: (a) classes are held
on Saturdays and Sundays only or
days agreed upon by the teacher and
the students/pupils; (b) it does not
have a formal curriculum; (c) it is
non-graded and may have multi-age
grouping; and (d) it only requires its
teachers to be graduates of a
madrasah or to be an imam (Muslim
religious leader)
2. Developmental or formal
madrasah. This type offers
hierarchically structured education
and sequential learning generally
attuned with the formal education
system. It operates like a regular
school where the students go
through madrasah edadi (pre-
school), to madrasah sanawi (high
school). The teachings concentrate
on Islamic religious and cultural
subjects and include some
mathematics and sciences courses,
with Arabic as the medium of
instruction. Expectedly, the madaris
students lack competitive skills
required for employment and are not
eligible for transfer to regular
schools because the madaris do not
implement the standard curriculum
of the Department of Education.
This type is not recognized and
accredited by the Department of
Education.
3. Standard private madrasah. This
type of madrasah has been
harmonized, upgraded and modified
to become a component of the
Philippine education system through
the issuance of DepED Order No.
51, s. 2004, prescribing the Standard
Curriculum for Elementary Public
Schools and Private Madaris.
Yes, Sir.
 Henceforth, all madrasah institutions
in the country shall be required to
adopt and implement said standard
curriculum to obtain government
recognition and accreditation. In the
public schools, the enriched
curriculum is likewise prescribed
mandating the offering of Arabic
language and Islamic values for
Muslim students throughout the
country in areas where there is a
Muslim population.
That is the end of our discussion.
