In this article, the author reviewed spiral instruction modelling in teaching Economics to extrapolate
insights, updates, retrospect, and prospects in terms of content, instruction, and assessment features of
the K to 12 curricula in Economics. The author used a inductive case analysis in teaching
demonstrations. This study was conducted to provide a framework for realignment of leaning outcomes
reveals that the teachers are aware of the spiral instruction modelling of the Economics curriculum,
however these were not properly implemented in the actual teaching process. The main limitation of this
study is that it lacks the annotation of how each content or learning competencies were modelled in a
spiral progression, thus the author indicated that there should be a review of the curriculum. This article
will not form the basis of my research; however, it will be useful supplementary information for my
In this article, the author evaluated the history, purpose, and trajectory of general education, social
studies, and geography education, and the detailed examination of the two case studies follows. The
author conducted two case studies to determine status of social studies and geography education in
South Korea. This study was conducted to showcase the application of classroom methods and skills at
the secondary level. The article is useful to my research topic, as the author suggested, traces of how
curriculum progression can be seen in how the teachers’ approach their content learning area. The main
limitation of the article is that there are only 2 teachers who were studied, and that it lacks the inclusivity
of a broader spectrum of educators throughout Korea, thus the authors indicate that further, more
perspective on the National Curriculum of the country. This article will not form the basis of my research,
however, this article provided experiences and insights that could be valuable information.

In this article, the author compared the curriculum of the social sciences courses of Germany and
Turkey to reveal the similarities and differences between the courses. The author used data by
comparing the curriculum of the two countries through a content analysis. Their research focuses on
similarities and differences of social sciences in terms of general features, and how the spiral
progression was used. The main limitation of the article is that the survey sample was restricted to a
feature that can be seen on the curriculum of two countries (citizenship education). The article is useful
to my research topic, as it shows how spiral progression was used in both Germany and Turkey on their
social science subject. This article will not exclusively form the basis of my study, but it can provide
starting point on factors that may inform on how spiral progression can be implemented in Araling
In this article, the authors assessed the impact of the newly introduced Civic Education in Nigeria’s
basic education curriculum. It compared the two Basic Education curriculum; the old curriculum
introduced in 2007 (where Social Studies was a stand-alone subject) and the new curriculum introduced
in 2016 (where Social Studies was grouped into Civic Education, together with Religious Studies, Civic
Education and Security Education). The authors use data gained through a review of the curriculum to
try to identify differences between the old and the revised Social Studies contents. The article is useful
to my research topic as this article clearly manifested how spiral progression was used by both
curriculum in introducing Civic Education as well as revisiting Social Studies in Nigeria; however, the
conclusion was that the spiral progression did not materialize properly. The authors indicate that further
that spiral approach should be emphasized in the future curriculum development exercise. This article
will not exclusively form the basis of my study, but it can provide starting point on factors that may
inform on how spiral progression can be implemented in Araling Panlipunan area of the Philippine
curriculum.
