- Teachers facilitate learning and constantly nurture
every learner
- Administrators and staff, as stewards of the
institution, ensure an enabling and supportive
environment for effective learning to happen
- Family, community, and other stakeholders are
actively engaged and share responsibility for
developing life-long learners

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

As one of the degrees of contextualization,
localization is defined as:

the process of relating learning content


specified in the curriculum to local information
and materials from the learner’s community

Localization and Contextualization
The curriculum is alive, it changes depending who
is implementing it, where and when it is
implemented.
In order for you to localize and contextualize the
curriculum, “you have to think of where you are so
that you can make the curriculum relevant to
you.” – Usec. Dina Ocampo
when we localize [the curriculum], we agree to it

This means that different areas in the country will


also use different materials, they will use different
instruments so that they can deliver the standards
of the curriculum.

HOW?
The REACT Strategy
Curricula and instruction based on contextual learning
strategies should be structured to encourage five essential
forms of learning:
Learning in the context of life
experience, or relating, is the kind of
contextual learning that typically occurs
with very young children. With adult
learners, however, providing this
meaningful context for learning becomes
more difficult. The curriculum that
attempts to place learning in the context
of life experiences must, first, call the
student’s attention to everyday sights,
events, and conditions. It must then
relate those everyday situations to new
information to be absorbed or a problem
to be solved.
.
Halimbawa
Experiencing—learning in the
context of exploration, discovery, and
invention—is the heart of contextual
learning. However motivated or tuned-in
students may become as a result of
other instructional strategies such as
video, narrative, or text-based activities,
these remain relatively passive forms of
learning. And learning appears to "take"
far more quickly when students are able
to manipulate equipment and materials
and to do other forms of active
research.
HALIMBAWA:
Applying concepts and
information in a useful context
often projects students into an
imagined future (a possible
career) or into an unfamiliar
location (a workplace). This
happens most commonly through
text, video, labs, and activities,
and these contextual learning
experiences are often followed up
with firsthand experiences such
as plant tours, mentoring
arrangements, and internships.
HALIMBAWA:
Cooperating—learning in the
context of sharing, responding, and
communicating with other learners—is a
primary instructional strategy in contextual
teaching. The experience of cooperating
not only helps the majority of students learn
the material, it also is consistent with the
real-world focus of contextual teaching.
HALIMBAWA:
Learning in the context of
existing knowledge, or
transferring, uses and builds
upon what the student has
already learned. Such an
approach is similar to relating,
Students develop confidence in
their problem-solving abilities if
we make a point of building new
learning experiences on what
they already know.
HALIMBAWA:
• Localization and
contextualization can be
done in all subject areas

• Localization maximizes
materials that are locally
available
• To contextualize, teachers use
authentic materials, activities,
interests, issues, and needs from
learners’ lives

• Should create rooms for students to


pose problems and issues and
develop strategies together for
addressing them
Are You Teaching
Contextually?
Take this self-test

1. Are new concepts presented in real-life situations and


experiences that are familiar to the student?

2. Are concepts in examples and student exercises presented


in the context of their use?

3. Are new concepts presented in the context of what the


student already knows?

4. Do examples and student exercises include many real,


believable problem-solving situations that students can
recognize as important to their current and possible
future lives?
5. Do examples and student exercises cultivate an attitude
that says, "I need to learn this"?

6. Do students gather and analyze their own data as they are


guided in discovery of the important concepts?

7. Are opportunities presented for students to gather and


analyze their own data for enrichment and extension?

8. Do lessons and activities encourage the student to apply


concepts and information in useful contexts, projecting the
student into imagined futures (e.g., possible careers) and
unfamiliar locations (e.g., workplaces)?
9. Are students expected to participate regularly in
interactive groups where sharing, communicating,
and responding to the important concepts and
decision-making occur?

10. Do lessons, exercises, and labs improve


students’ written and oral communication skills in
addition to mathematical reasoning and achievement?
