- 3. Icebreaker question • What are you expecting from your students to be after finishing school years? • How are you currently working for achieving your expectations? • Is the curriculum supporting your endeavors? How? Science and Math Educational Conference 18- March 12, 2016
- 4. Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) • It is a brain- compatible system of instruction that generates meaning by linking academic content with the context of student’s daily life (Johnson, 2002). Science and Math Educational Conference 18- March 12, 2016
- 5. Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) • CTL motivates learners to take charge of their own learning and to make connections between knowledge and its applications to the various contexts of their lives as family members, as citizens, and as workers (Sears, 2001). Science and Math Educational Conference 18- March 12, 2016
- 6. Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) • The concept is not new; the application of contextual learning was first proposed (at the turn of the 20th century) by John Dewy who advocated a curriculum and a teaching methodology tied to children’s experiences and interests (Pearson, 2001). Science and Math Educational Conference 18- March 12, 2016
- 7. Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) • “Context” means much more, surely, than events located in place and time. • Context consists of unconscious assumptions absorbed and gained of a world view that shapes our sense of reality. • Conclusions, choices, and decisions create our context (Johnson, 2002).

Editor's Notes
- Examples when thinking of real life applications of knowledge, linking the definition to its need for achieving the objectives of education.
- Education for a good citizen.
- The ideologies of education, student-centered, Social efficiency, scholar academic, and social reconstruction. Discussion about our expectations and which ideology is a must, participants must reach to a point that all ideologies must be implemented in a curriculum.
- Here participants need to link the educational vision to the context they want to work with, our context is our country, with all its places, times, and problems..this is our context..
- Reminding that the environmental can be climate change, pollution, waste management, renewable energy; Social can be poverty, overpopulation, gender equity; and economy can be sustainable consumption, system thinking…
