(BEC) and the Three Types of Curriculum:
Intended, Implemented and Achieved
Question 1 What does the BEC aim to
accomplish?(Intended curriculum)
1. To raise the quality of Filipino learners
and graduates who will become lifelong
learners.
2. To decongest the curriculum in order
that the teachers and learners will be
able to contextualize it.
3. To use innovative, interdisciplinary and
integrative methods of instructional
delivery whenever possible and
appropriate.
4. To make values development integral
to all learning areas in high school.
5. To increase time for tasks in order to
gain mastery of competencies of the
basic tool subjects

13. SLIDESMANIA.COM
SLIDESMANIA.COM
The curriculum objectives are expressed in terms of
competencies: knowledge, skills, values, and attitudes which
the learners will develop or acquire. These objectives or
competencies determine the content which focuses on
learning how to learn.

14. SLIDESMANIA.COM
SLIDESMANIA.COM
Question 2 How was the BEC implemented to accomplish
the goals?(Implemented curriculum)
1. The BEC decongested
the overcrowded the
old curriculum into five
learning areas,
namely, English
Mathematics, Science,
Filipino, and
Makabayan.
2. The teachers in basic
education were trained
to use innovative,
interdisciplinary,
thematic, and
integrative modes of
instructional delivery.
3. Teaching-learning
processes are interactive
to enhance learning.
There is open
communication between
teachers and learners
and among learners
themselves. Instructional
materials and multimedia
are fully utilized to support
interactions thus teaching
and learning become
more interesting.
4. English, Science,
Mathematics and Filipino
are the basic tool subjects,
while Makabayan develops
healthy personal and
national self-identity.
5. Makabayan entails the
use of integrated units of
learning areas composed of

Criteria for Curriculum
Assessment

19. SLIDESMANIA.COM
SLIDESMANIA.COM
Criteria for Curriculum Assessment
Criteria- are a set of standards to be
followed in assessment. Specifically,
as they apply to criteria are set of
standards upon which the different
elements of the curriculum are being
tested. The criteria determine the
different levels of competencies or
proficiency of acceptable task
performance.
Goals and Objectives- are statements
of curricular expectations. Objectives
indicate clearly what the students will
learn. The items must reflect the tasks,
skills, content behavior and thought
processes that make up curricular
domains and must also match the
students’ needs.

20. SLIDESMANIA.COM
SLIDESMANIA.COM
Goals and instructional objectives
- are formulated and specified for the following purposes:
1. To have focus on curriculum and
instruction which give direction to
where students need to go.
2. To meet requirements specified
in the policies and standards of
curriculum and instruction
3. To provide the students’ the
best possible education and
standards of curriculum and
instruction.
4. To monitor the progress of
students based on the goals set
5. To motivate students to learn
and the teachers to be able to feel
a sense of competence when goals
are attained.

21. SLIDESMANIA.COM
SLIDESMANIA.COM
For goals and objectives to be formulated criteria on certain elements should be
included according to Howell and Nolet in 2000.
1. Content – from the objectives, what content should students learn?
2. Behavior – what will students do to indicate that they have learned?
3. Criterion – what level of performance should the students have to master the
behavior?
4. Condition – under what circumstances should the students work in order to
master that behavior?

22. SLIDESMANIA.COM
SLIDESMANIA.COM
Writing effective goals and objectives should also use the following
general criteria.
1. Syntactic correctness (Are the objectives
syntactically correct?)
2. Compliance with legal requirements (Do
the objectives comply with the legal
requirements of the course of subjects?)
3. The Stranger Test (Do the objectives pass
the stranger test?)
4. Both knowledge and behavior are
addressed (Do theobjectives address both
knowledge and behavior?)
5. The So-What test (Do they
pass the so-what test?)
6. Individualization (Are the
objectives aligned?)
7. Common Sense (Do they
make common sense?)

23. SLIDESMANIA.COM
SLIDESMANIA.COM
Criteria for Assessment of Instruction
The Two Approaches to Instruction:
1. Supplantive Approach-
referred to as “direct” instruction.
The teachers attempts to
promote learning by providing
Explicit directions and
explanations regarding how to
do a tank. With this approach,
information is presented in an
ordered sequence in which
component subskills are taught
directly or a foundation for later
tasks. This approach to
instruction is highly teacher-
directed.
2. Generative Approach-
referred to as “constructivist” or
“developmental”. The teacher
functions as a facilitator who
takes a less central role in a
learning process that is
studentdirected.
Generative
instruction is “constructivist”
because much of its emphasis
is on helping students to
construct their own educational
goals and experiences as well
as the knowledge that results.
With this approach,
information is presented
on a schedule
determined by students’
interests and goals.
Prerequisites for more
complex information are
expected to be learned as
a consequence of the
larger understanding
students would be guided
to construct.

What are Curriculum Criteria?
Curriculum Criteria
-are guidelines on standard for curriculum decision-making.
The objectives of a curriculum or teaching plan are the most
important curriculum criteria, since they should be used in
selecting learning experiences and in evaluating learning
achievement.

28. SLIDESMANIA.COM
SLIDESMANIA.COM
The criteria are stated in the form of questions as follows:
1. Have the goals of the
curriculum or teaching
plan been clearly
stated; and are they used
by teachers and students
in
choosing content,
materials and activities
for learning?
2. Have teacher and
students engage in
student-teacher planning
in defining the goals and
in determining how they
will be implemented?
3. Do some of the planned
goals relate to the society
of the
community in which the
curriculum will be
implemented or the
teaching will be done?
4. Do some of the planned
goals relate to the
individual learner and is
or her needs, purposes,
interest and abilities?
5. Are the planned goals
used as criteria in
selecting
and developing learning
materials for instruction?
6. Are the planned goals
used as criteria in
evaluating learning
achievement and in the
further planning of
learning sub goals
activities?

29. SLIDESMANIA.COM
SLIDESMANIA.COM
According to Hass and Parkay (1993), individual differences, flexibility and systematic
planning are criteria that depend in part on knowledge of the different approaches to
learning. The criterion questions are as follows:
● Does the curriculum or teaching plan include alternative approaches and alternative
activities for learning?
● Have the different learning theories been considered in planning alternative learning
approaches and activities?
● Has the significance of rewarded responses, transfer, generalization, advance organizers,
self-concept, meaningfulness of the whole, personal meaning, imitation, identification and
socialization been considered in the planning?

What is evaluation?
Evaluation is the process of determining the value of something or the extent to which goals are
being achieved. It is a process of making a decision or reading a conclusion. It involves decision
making about student performance based on information obtained from an assessment process.
Assessment is the process of collecting information by reviewing
the products of student work, interviewing observing , or testing.
Evaluation is the process of using information that is collected
through assessment. It entails a reasoning process that is based
on influence.

33. SLIDESMANIA.COM
SLIDESMANIA.COM
Inference is the process of
arriving at a logical conclusion
from a body of evidence. It
usually refers to the process of
developing a conclusion on
the basis of some
phenomenon that is not
experienced or observed
directly by the person drawing
the inference.
Evaluation is a thoughtful
process. It is the judgment
we make
about the assessment of
student learning based on
established
criteria. It involves the
process of integrating
assessment
information form various
sources and using this
information to
make inferences and
judgments about how well
students have
achieved the curriculum
expectations.
Evaluation provides
information-
 Directly to the learner
for guidance
 Directly to the
teacher for
orientation of the next
instruction activities.
 Directly to external
agencies for their
assessment of
schools functioning in
the light of national
purpose.

34. SLIDESMANIA.COM
SLIDESMANIA.COM
What is curriculum evaluation?
Curriculum evaluation 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.
Curriculum evaluation focuses on determining whether the curriculum as recorded
in the master plan has been carried out in the classroom.
In evaluating a curriculum, the following key Questions are usually asked:
● Are the objectives being addressed?
● Are the contents presented in the recommended sequence?
● Are students being involved in the suggested instructional experiences?
● Are the students reacting to the contents?

35. SLIDESMANIA.COM
SLIDESMANIA.COM
Formative and Summative Evaluation
Summative evaluation is evaluation that takes place at the end of a unit or section
of instruction.
Summative evaluation takes place at the end of the lesson or project and tells the
evaluator what has happened. It sum’s up the learning. It is the after-the-fact, like
end-of-the-year testing.
Formative evaluation takes place during the lesson or project and tells the evaluator
what is happening. It is on-going and yields information that can be used to modify
the program prior to termination.
