I. Concepts, Nature, and Purposes
• …it denotes a specific course.
• …while to others it means the
entire educational environment.
Curriculum
It is a key element in the
educational process ; its scope
is extremely broad, and it
touches virtually everyone
who is involved with teaching
and learning.
Curriculum
In its narrow sense,
curriculum is viewed as a
listing of subjects to be taught
in the school.
Curriculum
It refers to total learning
experience of individuals not
only in school, but in society as
well.
Educational Reforms in the Philippines
• Philippine Commission to survey
Philippine Education (PCSPE)-1969
• Survey of Outcomes of Elementary
Education (SOUTELE)-1976
• Philippine Commission for Educational
Reform (PCER)

What is Curriculum?
• Etymology
–From the Latin word “Curriculum”
(“course”), derived from currere
(“run” or “move quickly”
–“a course for racing”
What is Curriculum?
• In educational usage, the “course of the
race” means or stands for “course of
study.”
The Traditional
Points of View
Traditional Points of View
In the early years of 20 th
century, “Curriculum was a
“body of subject or subject
matter prepared by the
teacher for the student to
learn.”
Traditional Points of View
Synonymous with:
“course of the study” and
“syllabus”
Robert M. Hutchins
Curriculum for basic
education should emphasize
3Rs, and college education
should be grounded on liberal
education.
Joseph Schwab
“Discipline” is the sole source
of curriculum.
Joseph Schwab
Thus, education system
curriculum is divided into
chunks of knowledge called
subject areas in basic
education, such as math,
science, English, etc.
Joseph Schwab
In college, discipline may
include humanities, sciences,
languages, etc.
Progressive Points of
View of
curriculum
Progressive Points of View
“ a listing of school subjects,
syllabi, course of study, and
list of course or specific
discipline do not make a
curriculum”
Progressive Points of View
This can be only called
curriculum if the written
materials are actualized by the
learner.
John Dewey
Dewey’s definition of
experience and education. He
believes that reflective
thinking is a means that
unifies curricular elements.
Caswell and Campbell
“All experiences children have
under the guidance of
teachers”
Marsh and Wills
“All experiences in the
classroom which are planned
and enacted by the teacher,
and also learned by the
students”

Historical
Foundations of
Curriculum
Franklin Bobbit (1876-1956)
He started the curriculum development
movement
Curriculum is a science that emphasizes
students needs
Curriculum prepares learners for adult life.
Objectives and activities should group
together when tasks are clarified.
Werret Charters (1875-
1952)
Like Bobbit, he posited that
curriculum is science and
emphasizes students’ needs.
Objectives and activities should
match. Subject matter or content
relates to objectives.
William Kilpartick (1875-
1952)
Curricula are purposeful activities which
are child centered.
The purpose of the curriculum is child
development and growth. He introduced this
project method where teacher and student
plan the activities.
Curriculum develops social relationships
and small group instruction.
Harold Rugg (1886-1960)
Curriculum should develop the whole child.
It is child centered.
With the statement of objectives and related
learning activities, curriculum should
produce outcomes.
Emphasized social studies and suggested
that the teacher plans curriculum in
advance.
Hollis Caswell (1901-1989)
Curriculum is organized around social
functions of themes, organized knowledge
and learner’s interest.
Curriculum, instruction and learning are
interrelated
Curriculum is a set of experiences. Subject
matter is developed around social functions
and learners’ interests.
Ralph Tyler (1902-1994)
Curriculum is a science and an extension of
school’s philosophy. It is based on students’
needs and interest.
Curriculum is always related to instruction.
Subject matter is organized in terms of
knowledge, skills and values.
The process emphasizes problem solving.
curriculum aims to educate and not specialist.
Hilda Taba (1902-1967)
She contributed to the theoretical
and pedagogical foundations of
concepts development and critical
thinking in social studies curriculum.
She helped lay the foundation for
diverse student population.
Peter Oliva (1992-2012)
He described how curriculum change
is a cooperative endeavor.
Teachers and curriculum specialist
constitute the professional core of
planners.
Significant improvement is achieved
through group activity.
Psychological
Foundations of
Curriculum
Behaviorist
Psychology
Behaviorist Psychology
Learning should be organized so students
can experience success in the process of
mastering the subject matter. The method
is introduced in a step-by-step manner
with proper sequencing of tasks, which is
viewed by other educational psychologist
as simplistic and mechanical
Ivan Pavlov (1849-1936)
He is the father of the classical
conditioning Theory, the S-R Theory
The key to learning is early years of
life is to train them what you want
them to become
S-R theory is a foundation of learning
practice called indoctrination
Ivan Pavlov (1849-1936)
He is the father of the classical
conditioning Theory, the S-R Theory

B.F. Skinner
Operant Conditioning
Edward Thorndike (1874-
1949)
He championed the Connectionism
theory.
He proposed the three law of learning:
Law of readiness
Law of exercise
Law of effect
Specific Stimulus has specific response
Robert Gagne (1916-2002)
He proposed the Hierarchical Theory.
1. Intellectual skills or “Knowing How”: categorize and
use symbols, forming concepts and problem-solving;
2. Information or “knowing what”” knowledge about
facts dates and names
3. Cognitive strategies or learning skills;
4. Motor skills; and
5. Attitudes, feelings and emotions learned through
experiences
Robert Gagne (1916-2002)
He proposed the Hierarchical
Theory.
Behavior is based on
prerequisite conditions
He introduced tasking in the
formulation of objectives.
Cognitive
Psychology
Cognitive Psychology
Learning constitutes a logical
method for organizing and
interpreting learning.
Learning is rooted in the tradition
of subject matter and similar to
cognitive development theory.

Gestalt
Gestalt Theory
Learning is explained in terms
of “wholeness” of the problem.
Human beings do not respond
to isolated stimuli but to an
organization or pattern stimuli
Gestalt
Keys to learning
Learning is complex and abstract
Learners analyze the problem, discriminate
between essential and nonessential data, and
perceive relationships.
Learners will perceive something in relation
to the whole. What/how they perceive is
related to their previous experiences.
Abraham Maslow (1908-
1970)
He advanced the Self-actualization Theory
and classic theory of human needs.
A child whose basic needs are not met will
not be interested in acquiring knowledge

and methods for facilitating learning
Children’s perceptions, which are highly
individualistic, influence their learning
and behavior in class.

Types of
Curricula in schools
Recommended Curriculum
-proposed by scholars and
professional organizations.
These are recommendations in the form
of memorandum or policy, standards
and guidelines that came from
government agencies such as DepEd,
CHED and TESDA and professional
organizations or international bodies
such as UNESCO.
Written Curriculum
-Appear in school, district, division, or country documents.
These includes documents based on
the recommended curriculum. They
come in the form of course study,
syllabi, modules, books or
instructional guides among others. A
packet of this written curriculum is
the Teacher’s Lesson Plan.
Taught Curriculum
-what teachers implement or deliver in the classrooms or
schools
The teacher and the learners will put
life to the written curriculum. The
skill of the teacher to facilitate
learning based on the written
curriculum with the aid of
instructional materials and facilities
is necessary.
Supported Curriculum
-resources like textbooks, computers, audio-visual
materials which support and help in the implementation of
the curriculum
These are the support materials that the
teacher needs. This includes print
materials like books, charts, worksheets,
and non-print materials like PowerPoint
presentation and other electronic
illustrations. It also includes facilities
like science laboratory and playground
Assessed Curriculum
-that which is tested and equivalent
This is the curriculum that is
evaluated after it has been taught.
The process is to find out how much
has been learned or mastered. It can
be in the form of oral, written, and
performance based.
Learned Curriculum
-what students actually learn and what is measured
These are measured by tools in
assessment, which can indicate the
cognitive, affective, and psychomotor
outcomes.
Hidden/Implicit Curriculum
-the unintended curriculum
This is the unwritten curriculum that
has a great impact on the behavior of
the learner-peer influence, school
environment, media, parental pressures,
societal changes, cultural practices,
natural calamities are some factors that
create the hidden curriculum.
Elements/Components of the Curriculum
1) Aims, goals and objectives (What is to be
done?)
2) Subject matter/content (What subject
matter is to be included?)
3) Learning Experiences (What instructional
strategies, resources and activities will be
employed)
4) Evaluation approaches (What methods and
instruments will be used to assess the
results of the curriculum?)

Curriculum Content o
Subject Matter
Criteria in the Selection of subject matter
content or Knowledge for the Curriculum
(Bilbao, 2009)
1) Self-Sufficiency
2) Significance
3) Validity
4) Interest
5) Utility
6) Learnability
7) Feasibility
Significance
Content should contribute to ideas,
concepts, principles and generalization
that should attain the overall purpose of
the curriculum.
It is significant if content becomes the
means of developing cognitive, affective,
or psychomotor skills of the learners.
Significance
As education is a way of preserving
culture, content will be significant
when this will address the cultural
context of the learners.
VALIDITY
The authenticity of the subject matter
form its validity.
Knowledge becomes obsolete with
the fast changing times.
UTILITY
Usefulness of the content in the
curriculum is relative to the learners
who are going to use these.
LEARNABILITY
The complexity of the content should
be written the range of experiences of
the learners.
FEASIBILITY
Can the subject content be learned
within the time allowed, resources
available, expertise of the teachers
and the nature of the learners?
INTEREST
Will the learners take interest in the
content? Why? Are the contents
meaningful? What value will the
contents have in the present and
future life of the learners?
Interest is one of the driving forces
for students to learn better.
II. Crafting/
Developing the
Curriculum
Models of Curriculum
Development
Ralph Tyler Model (also known as
Tyler’s Rationale)
He posited four fundamental questions or
principles in examining any curriculum:
1. What educational purposes should schools seek to
attain?
2. What educational experiences can be provided that
is likely to attain these purposes?
3. How can these educational experiences be
effectively organized?
4. How can we determine whether these purpose are
being attained or not?
Ralph Tyler Model (also known as
Tyler’s Rationale)
1) Purpose of the School
2) Educational experiences related
to the purpose
3) Organization of the experiences
4) Evaluation of the
experiences/outcomes
Hilda Taba Model (Grassroots
Approach)
1) Diagnosis of learners’ needs and expectations
of the larger society
2) Formulation of learning objectives
3) Selection of learning content
4) Organization of learning content
5) Selection of learning experiences
6) Organization of learning activities
7) Determination of what to evaluate and means of
doing it.
The Francis Hunkin’s Decision-
Making Model
1) Curriculum conceptualization and
legitimization
2) Diagnosis
3) Content selection
4) Experience selection
5) Implementation
6) Evaluation
7) Maintenance
Curriculum Design
Models
1. Subject-Centered Design Model
Focuses on the content of the
curriculum.
Corresponds mostly to the textbook
written for the specific subject.
In this design , schools divide the
school hours across different subject.
a. Discipline Design
Related to the subject design, but
focuses on academic discipline.
It is often used in college.
b. Correlation Design
This comes from a core, correlated
curriculum designs that links
separate subject designs in order to
reduce fragmentation.
Subjects are related to one another,
but each subject maintains its
identity.
c. Broad Field
Design/interdisciplinary
Variation of the subject-centered
design.
2. Learner-Centered Design
The learner is the center of the
educative process.
a. Child-centered Design
The curriculum design is
anchored on the needs and
interest of the child.
b. Experience-centered Design
Believes that the interest and
needs of the learners cannot be
pre-planned. Instead, experiences
of the learners become the
starting point of the curriculum.
c. Humanistic Design (Abraham
Maslow and Carl Rogers)
Development of self is the
ultimate objective of learning.
Maslow’s theory of Self
Actualization
Carl Rogers-Self-directed
3. Problem-Centered Design
This designs draws on social
problems, needs, interests, and
abilities of learners.
Dimension and Principles of
Curriculum Design
Scope
Balance
Articulation
Sequence
Integration
Continuity
Scope
All the content,, topics,
learning experiences and
organizing threads
comprising the educational
plan.
BALANCE
Content should be fairly
distributed in depth and
breath.
ARTICULATION
This will assure no gaps or
overlaps in the content.
SEQUENCE
The logical arrangement of
the content.
Easy to complex
General to specific
INTEGRATION
Content in the curriculum
does not stand alone or in
isolation.
INTEGRATION
Content when viewed as a
curriculum should
continuously flow as it was
before, to where it is now, and
where it will be in the future.
CONTINUITY
The constant repetition,
review and reinforcement
of learning is referred to
as continuity.
Curriculum
Approaches
Behavioral Approach
The behavioral approach begins
with educational plans that start
with setting of goals or objectives.
The change of behavior indicates
the measurement of the
accomplishments.
Managerial Approach
The principal is the curriculum leader at
the same time instructional leader, who
is supposed to be the general manager.
Curriculum managers look at the
curriculum changes and innovations as
they administer the resources and
restructure the school.
System Approach
The organizational chart of the
school represents a system
approach. It shows the line-staff
relationship of the personnel and
how decisions are made.
System Approach
The following are of equal importance:
1. Administration
2. Counseling
3. Curriculum
4. Instruction
5. Evaluation
Humanistic Approach
It considers the whole child and
believes that in curriculum, the
total development of the individual
is the prime consideration.
The learner is at the center of the
curriculum.
Approaches to
Curriculum Design
(Iringan, 2008)
The Six (6) features of the
curriculum:
1. Who teaches-The Teacher
2. Who do the Teachers Teach-The Learners
3. What do the Teachers Teach-Knowledge, skills
and Values
4. How do the Teachers Teach-Strategies and
Methods
5. How much of the Teaching was Learned-
Performance
6. With whom do we Teach-Community Partners

Feedback and Reflections
Roles of Stakeholders
in curriculum
Implementation
Stakeholders
are individuals or institutions
that are interested in the school
curriculum.
Learners at the center of the
Curriculum
The learners are the very reason
why a curriculum is developed.
Teachers as Curriculum
Developers and Implementers
Planning and writing the curriculum
are the primary roles of the teacher.
“No Technology can ever replace a
teacher; it will only support the
multifaceted role of the teacher”
Curriculum Managers and
Administration
They are the people who are
responsible in the formulation of
the school’s vision, philosophy,
mission and objectives.
Parents as Supporters to the
Curriculum
… are the best supporters of the
school, especially they are the
ones paying for their child’s
education.
Community members as
Curriculum Resources
Community members and
materials in the existing local
community can be very well
substitute for what are needed to
implement curriculum.
Other Stakeholders in
Curriculum Implementation
Professional organizations:
Teachers, lawyers, medical
doctors, engineers and many
others
The Role of Technology in
Implementing Curriculum
Upgrading the quality of teaching-and-
learning in schools
Increasing the capability of the teacher to
effectively inculcate learning, and for students
to gain mastery of lessons and courses
Broadening the delivery of education
Revolutionizing the use of technology to boost
educational pradigm
Pilot Testing,
Monitoring and
Evaluating the
Implementation of the
Curriculum
Pilot Testing
This is a process where
empirical data are gathered to
support whether the material or
the curriculum is useful,
relevant, reliable and valid.
Monitoring
Is the periodic assessment and
adjustment during the try out
period.
Curriculum Evaluation
As part of total educational
evaluation refers to a systematic
process of judging the value,
effectiveness and adequacy of a
curriculum: it is a process,
product and setting which will
lead to informed decisions.
Two types of
curriculum evaluation
School-Based Evaluation (SBE)
An approach to curriculum
evaluation which places the
content, design, operation, and
maintenance of evaluation
procedure in the hands of
school personnel.
Accreditation
This is a voluntary process of
submitting a curricular program
to an external accrediting body for
review in any level of education:
basic, tertiary or graduate school,
to ensure that the standards are
met.
Accreditation
Accreditation studies the
statement of the educational
intentions of the school and
affirms the standard of
excellence.
IV . Assessing the
curriculum
What is Curriculum Evaluation
It is the process of obtaining
information for judging the worth
of an educational program, product,
procedure, educational objectives or
the potential utility of alternative
approaches designed to attain
specified objectives.

Brain-Based Learning
(BBL)
Brain-Based Learning (BBL)
It is an approach to teaching based on
research in Neuroscience.
It suggest that the brain learns
naturally.
The Technique allows teachers to
connect learning to students real life
experience.
Brain-Based Learning (BBL)
This kind of learning encompasses education
concept like
Mastery learning
Problem-based learning
Cooperative education
Multiple intelligences
Learning styles
Experiential learning
Emerging Interactive
Teaching Elements
from (BBL)
Orchestrated Immersion
Learning environments are
created to provide authentic
learning experiences.
Orchestrated Immersion
Example:
In the elementary level, teachers can use
the school’s mini forest to identify trees,
animals, and other plants and find out
how they live together.
Relaxed Alertness
In BBL, efforts are made to
eliminate fear while maintaining a
highly challenging environment.
Relaxed Alertness
Example:
Teachers may play classical music when appropriate
to set a relaxed tone in the classroom. Bright lights
are dimmed. Scented candles are lit to calm the
senses. All learners are accepted regardless of their
various learning styles, capabilities and liabilities.
This will provide a relaxed and accepting
environment. Children are motivated to bring in the
best of them and bring out their potential.
Outcomes-Based Education (OBE)
OBE is an approach to education
in which decision about the
curriculum are driven by the exit
learning outcomes that the
students should display at the end
of the course.
Outcomes-Based Education (OBE)
Product defines Process
It can be summed up as “Results-Oriented
thinking”
Learning Outcomes- statement of what a
learner is expected to know, understand and
be able to do a result of learning process
(European Qualifications Framework for
Lifelong Learning-EQF)
Why Outcome-
Oriented Teaching and
Learning?
The Bologna Process
Quality Assurance in Higher Education
A unified educational system (mobility,
transparency, and mutual recognition of
Qualifications)
Revise curricula; integrate students-centeredness
and learning outcomes orientation.
Pedagogical issue became central, along with the
alignment of teaching and assessment methods in
accordance with learning outcomes
Experiential Learning Courses
(ELC)
NCBTS (CMO 30, 2004)
Teacher Education Curriculum
provides students with rich
practical learning experiences
which are drown out from the
actual environment.
Experiential Learning Courses
(ELC)
Field Study Courses
FS1-Learner’s Development an Environment
FS2-Exploring the Teaching-Learning Process
FS3-Technology in the Learning Environment
FS4-Understanding Curriculum Development
FS5-Learning Assessment Strategies
FS6-on Becoming a Teacher
Practice Teaching (Student Teaching)
This is the apex of all the ELCs. It is
the total immersion of the prospective
teacher in the real-life of becoming a
teacher.
It is an integrated theoretical
framework that defines the different
dimensions of effective teaching.
NCBTS define the good teaching
through he following:
Domains– distinctive spheres of learning process,
and are also a well-defined arena for
demonstrating teacher practices.
Strands– specific dimensions of positive teacher
practices under the broad conceptual domain.
Indicators– concrete observable, and measurable
teacher behaviors, actions, habits, routines, and
practices known to create, facilitate and support
enhanced student learning.
The 7 Domains of the NCBTS
Framework
1) Social Regard for Learning
2) The Learning Environment
3) Diversity of Learners
4) Curriculum
5) Planning, Assessing and Reporting
6) Personal Growth & Professional
Development
Domain 1. Social Regard for
Learning (SRFL)
This domain focuses on the ideal
that teacher serves as positive and
powerful role models of the value in
the pursuit of different efforts to learn.
The teacher’s actions, statements, and
different types of social interactions with
students exemplify this ideal.
Domain 2. Learning Environment
(LE)
This domain focuses on importance of
providing a social, psychological and
physical environment within which all
students, regardless of their individual
differences in learning, can engage in the
different learning activities and work
towards attaining high standards of
learning.
Domain 3. Diversity of Learners
(DOL)
The DOL domain emphasizes the ideal that
teachers can facilitate the learning process
even the diverse learners, by recognizing and
respecting individual differences and by
using knowledge about their differences to
design diverse sets of learning activities, to
ensure that all learners can attain the desired
learning goals.
Domain 4. Curriculum (Curr)
The curriculum domain refers to all
elements of the teaching-learning
process that work in convergence to
help students achieve the curricular
goals and objectives, and to attain high
standards of learning defined in the
curriculum.
Domain 5. Planning, Assessing &
Reporting (PAR)
Refers to the alignment of assessment and planning
activities.
1) Use of assessment data to plan and revise
teaching-learning plans;
2) Integration of assessment procedures in the plan
and implementation of teaching-learning
activities;
3) Reporting of the learners’ actual achievement and
behavior
Domain 6. Community Linkages (CL)
Classroom activities are
meaningfully linked to the
experiences and aspirations of the
learners in their homes and
communities.
Domain 7. Personal Growth &
Professional Development (PGPD)
The PGD domain emphasizes the
ideal that teachers value having a
high personal regard for the teaching
profession, concern for professional
development, and continuous
improvement as teachers.
