...Ang K+12 sa Edukasyon ng Pilipinas Kasalukuyan ng ipinapatupad ng pamahalaang Aquino ang programa nitong kung tawagin ay K+12. Ito ay ang pagdaragdag ng taon sa Basic Education ng bansa. Sa programang ito ay hindi na tatanggapin sa unang grado ang batang hindi nag-kinder bilang unang hakbang sa pagpapatupad nito. At ang isa pa ay ang dalawang taong dagdag sa high school na ibig sabihin ay magkakaroon ng tinatawag na Senior High. Sa loob ng dalawang taon sa Senior High ay maaaring mamili ang isang estudyante ng kanyang espesyalisasyon na Technical/Vocational course o isport at iba pang pagpipilian. Ang programang ito ay naglalayong mapataas ang kalidad ng edukasyon ng bansa. Ang Pilipinas na lang kasi ang bukod tanging bansa sa Asya ang may pinakamababang bilang ng taon sa Basic Education. Suportado ang programang ito ng ilang sektor tulad ng mga nasa negosyo. Sa ganitong paraan diumano ay maari ng makapagtrabaho ang mga Pilipino kahit high school lang ang tinapos. Napakalaki ng problema ng bansa pagdating sa edukasyon. Sa mga pampublikong paaralan pa lamang ay masyadong siksikan sa mga silid. Bukod sa walang maayos na bentilador ay hindi na rin matutukan ng maayos ng mga guro ang kanilang mga estudyante sa sobrang dami. Ganito ang sitwasyon sa Metro Manila. Naiiba naman ang kwento pagdating sa mga malalayong lugar sa bansa. Naririyan ang mga estudyante na maraming oras ang ginugugol sa paglalakad ng ilang milyang layo makarating lang sa paaralan. Mas malala pa sa iba, dahil...

...When I first hear about the K-12 program, I think about that we lack of budget. I don’t want to change the system because I used to our educational program. Some teachers may teach one special subject — usually music, art, reading, foreign languages, or physical education — to a number of classes at different age levels. Rather than specializing in a particular age range, such as middle school, these teachers typically receive state certification to teach Kindergarten through 12th grade. K to 12 is now implemented in our country, so teachers are getting ready for it. We must be equip by knowledge, not only knowledge but also strategy, principle, methods and approaches to our students. So what is the problem here? We need more and more teachers. But we lack of teachers. There are so many teachers needed next year. But there are some organization that helps us in investing for our education. We should thank them and use their donations in education. In this article, the TFP, a non-government organization will recruit Filipino and Filipino-Americans to teach here in the Philippines. Another problem is the facilities. So they said the solution for that is they will use the other rooms in the colleges since there will be no incoming first and second year colleges. I think it will solve a little bit of our problem. The Department of Education should enhance the quality of education, this is for the education of all Filipinos and I hope this will really work out. To bridge the gap...

...Republic of the Philippines Department of Education DepEd Complex, Meralco Avenue Pasig City K to 12 Curriculum Guide ENGLISH (Grade 10) K to 12 Curriculum Guide ENGLISH (Grade 10) December 2013 THE FRAMEWORK I. PHILOSOPHY AND RATIONALE Language is the basis of all communication and the primary instrument of thought. Thinking, learning, and language are interrelated. Language is governed by rules and systems (language conventions) which are used to explore and communicate meaning. It defines culture which is essential in understanding oneself (personal identity), forming interpersonal relationships (socialization), extending experiences, reflecting on thought and action, and contributing to a better society. Language, therefore, is central to the peoples’ intellectual, social and emotional development and has an essential role in all key learning areas1. Language is the foundation of all human relationships. All human relationships are established on the ability of people to communicate effectively with each other. Our thoughts, values and understandings are developed and expressed through language. This process allows students to understand better the world in which they live and contributes to the development of their personal perspectives of the global community. People use language to make sense of and bring order to their world. Therefore, proficiency in the language enables people to access, process and keep abreast of information, to engage with...

...K+12 and the Youth “Education is life itself”, this famous line has indeed brought great impact on the creation of the national educational system - the K+12 program. With the main objective of preparing the learners to become more competitive both in the academic and skill-related work, the said system was implement as early as last year. Thus, this illustrious program brought many effects on the side of many students specially those who are in high school level. That is, different views from various students had fall into one question- “Are we prepare?” The inquiry transfers all to the adverbial, physical, psychological and of course financial aspect of the youth. If many of them saw this as a beautiful chance, many of them too had an opposite feeling. Begin with the fact that the current system runs in the country in line of experimenting only, nothing had been evaluate so nothing can be proven its effectiveness. As the core beneficiary, the youth place themselves at the center of “what ifs” arena. They battle for the triumph of the theory. Economically speaking, those who are in the middle class have the assurance of the affordability of the additional years that will spend in the school. While other, primarily, the poor youth thought it as additional expenses. However, a chance of career selection of their self-choice promises the system. The thing is, there is no guarantee if the rate of education mismatch will decrease for the technical skill offers most on what is...

...Chapter I THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND Introduction Every successful concept and project in life requires a proper framework and planning. This relates to all processes, including education. Whenever we embark on any new plan or procedure, we need to make sure that we have all the plans drawn up. What is on offer, what are the resources that we have, what are the steps, which we need to take and what are the goals that we need to achieve are some elements that need to be looked upon. A similar set of constraints when applied to education in schools and colleges gives birth to curriculum. A curriculum is a set of courses, including their content, offered at a school or university. The curriculum often contains a detailed list of subjects and the elements of teaching them. John Franklin Bobbitt’s “The Curriculum” published in 1918 mentions curriculum as an idea that has its roots in the Latin word ‘race-course’. He also explained “The Curriculum” as the course of deeds and experiences through which children grow up into adults and get going for success in the society. A curriculum is more than putting together a set of academically required subjects. It must consider all aspects of the student life, the learning needs of students, the time available for the sessions and the teachers’ idea, capability and workload. At high school levels, teenagers can take their own liberty in choosing their path. Though complete autonomy does not rest with a student, a level of choice...

...K+12 CURRICULUM REACTION PAPER Introduction When people used the word curriculum, it is usually referring to the content chosen to be taught – the official curriculum. In the K to 12 Basic Education Program of the Department of Education, a new curriculum was designed to develop a learner who possess a healthy mind and body; has a solid moral and spiritual grounding; has essential knowledge and skills for lifelong learning and self-actualization; engages in critical thinking and creative problem solving; contributes to the development of a progressive, just, and humane society; is proud to be a Filipino; and appreciates the beauty around him/her and cares for the environment for a sustainable future. This enhanced curriculum from the Kindergarten to the senior high school aims to produce holistically developed learners with the 21st century skills. How can all these mission and vision of the K to 12 programs be attained? It can be attained through the child centered or learner centered curriculum that high lights the said program of the Department of Education. Body As I was looking at the new curriculum of the K to 12 Basic Education Program of the Department of Education, I am beginning to appreciate the effort made by the government to uplift the kind of education in our country. The Curriculum that was made for the Kindergarten until the senior high school was quite satisfying for me because it is really the product of different researches to make the education system in...

...Ready for K-to-12? Specifically, are we ready for Grade 11, the first of the two new senior high school years that have been added to the curriculum by virtue of the Enhanced Basic Education Act of 2013? By the start of school year 2016-2017, millions of students across the country who would have otherwise graduated from four years of high school would make up the first batch to enroll in Grade 11. After Grade 12, when they graduate in March 2018, they would constitute the first batch of high school students to finish the K-to-12 program. What does this mean in practical terms? It means, for one, that by next year, public schools would have to find extra classrooms, restrooms, teachers, textbooks, etc. to accommodate the new Grade 11 population that should have gone on to freshman college studies in the earlier setup, but which would now remain for another two years in the school. The old school system replaced by K-to-12 leaned for decades on the annual turnaround of graduating students to make way for incoming batches from the lower years to use existing school facilities. This time, the first year of implementation of the added senior high school under K-to-12 gives secondary schools the problem of where to put their Grade 11 classes. The burden is even more acute in public schools, which are mandated by law to carry the extra two years, even as they are more typically deprived of the resources and facilities that private schools enjoy. Private junior high schools, while...

...other staff, among others. Prior to the mid-20th century, the country's education system was patterned on those of its earlier colonial powers, those of bothSpain and the United States. However, after the Philippine independence in 1946, its educational system changed radically. The former basic educational system of the Philippines was composed of 6 years of elementary education starting at the age of 6,[3] and 4 years of high school education starting at the age of 12.[4] Afterwards, one can continue his or her education by enrolling in technical or vocational schools, or in higher education institutions like universities. Although the 1987 Constitution states that elementary education is compulsory, it was never put into force. Since 2011, the country started its transition from its old 10-year basic educational system to the K-12 educational system, as mandated by DepEd.[5] This time, the new 12-year system is now compulsory, along with the adoption of new curricula for all schools (see 2010s and the K-12 program). The transition shall last until the S.Y. 2017-2018, where the first graduates under the new educational system will be brought forth. All public schools in the Philippines must start classes from a date mandated by the Department of Education (usually every first Monday of June), and must end after each school completes the mandated 200-day school calendar of DepEd (usually around the third week of March to the second week of April). Private schools are not...

The Department of Education controls the Philippine education system, including the curriculum used in schools and the allocation of funds. It also regulates the construction of schools and other educational facilities and the recruitment of teachers and staff. From 1945 until 2011, the basic education system was composed of six years of elementary education starting at the age of 6, and four years of high school education starting at the age of 12.Further education was provided by technical or vocational schools, or in higher education institutions such as universities.It is also in the year 2011when the country started to transition from its old 10-year basic educational system to a K to 12 educational system, as mandated by the Department of Education.

...K to 12: Susi sa Mas Mabuting Edukasyon Taong 2011, isang mahalagang yugto ang naganap sa edukasyon ng Pilipinas. Pinakilala ang bagong kurikulum: ang K to 12. Mula sa dating 10 taong pag-aaral, magkakaroon na ng taon para sa Kinder at 12 pang karagdagang taon, anim na taon ng Primary Education, apat na taon ng Junior High School at dalawang taon ng Senior High School. Nararapat na ang pagsasabatas nito sapagkat nahuhuli na ang bansa sa “International Education Standards”, mas mapapadali ang pagtratrabaho sa ibang bansa ng mga Pilipino, dahil magiging “professionals” agad sila abroad. Mas mapaghahanda rin nito ang mga nakapagtapos na sa mundo ng pagtratrabaho. Mahalagang maging sapilitan na rin ang Kinder, ‘pagkat sa mga edad na ito nagiging ganap ang pag-iisip ng mga mag-aaral, at napatunayan ding marami sa mga batang nakapag-Kinder ang nakapagtatapos ng pag-aaral. Higit sa lahat, madaragdagan ang “International Competitiveness” ng mga Pilipino sa pamamagitan nito. Marami rin ang tumatanggi sa bagong kurikulum na ito, sa kadahilanang hindi pa raw sapat at handa ang gobyerno para rito, maaaring ito ay totoo, ngunit ipapalit ba ito sa magiging “competitiveness” ng mga nakapagtapos na sa larangan ng trabaho? Maaari ngang sa una ay di pa “pino” ang kurikulum ngunit kung titignan ang “long term effect” nito ay malaki ang maambag nito sa ating mga Pilipino. Malaki ang pagpapahalaga nating mga Pilipino sa edukasyon, ‘pagkat ito ang ating pag-asa. Ngunit paano tayo uunlad...
