REFLECTION 9: CURRICULUM IMPLEMENTATION

This week we learn about curriculum implementation.

Curriculum implementation.
Curriculum implementation is entails putting into practice the officially prescribed course of study, syllabuses and subjects. The process involves helping the learner acquire knowledge or experience. It cannot take place without the learner. Learner is the central figure of the implemantation process. It is also take place as the learner acquire the planned or intended experience, knowledge, skills, ideas and attitude that are aimed at enabling the same learner to function effectively in a society.

Planning.

As we already know. Every programme we need to planned it first. So, start with observation in children imterest, needs, strength and behaviours. It is, to make it more suitable, interesting and to give the best learning experience for children. The planning can help adult to understand how and what children learn. Also help children more in improving their learning skills.

REFLECTION 8: CURRICULUM EVALUATION.

WHAT IS EVALUATION?

Evaluation is, the process or group of processes that people perform in order to gather data and that will enable them to decide whether to accept, change, or eliminate something.
Concerned with relative values and statements of worth.

Other than that, it is determining whether the expected or the planned has occurred or is occuring in relation to the intended.
 What I understand about these, evaluation is something that I setup for children like the activity in class I guess whether it is a good or not. Other than that it is also similar on what I do when I provide the lesson plan. Such as the objective of my lesson had been achieve or not. My lesson that I provide are effective or not for children or I have already achieve the goals or not.

From what I know also, evaluation can be informal or formal assessment.
Other than than when we do the evaluation it should be based on 5 question which is: Intrinsic value, Instrumental value,comparative value and Idealization value and decision value.

WHAT IS PSYCHOLOGICAL FOUNDATION OF CURRICULUM.

  What I understand, it is more on the concerned with the question of how people learn.  Is also provides a basis for understanding the teaching and learning process. The process are both essential of curricularists, because it is only when students learn and understand curriculum, gain some knowledge and they know how to use it that the curriculum has actual worth.

The psycology related to curriculum in term of how the teacher understand the individual learning skills. Other than that, they are three major theories of learning , the first one is behaviorist, second are cognitive-information processing theories and the last one are phenomenological and humanistic.
