ROLE OF A TEACHER
The teacher prepares activities for the students to do.
The teachers address the goals and needs interests of
the learners by creating experiences from where the
students can learn.
The teacher designs, enriches, and modifies the
curriculum to suit the learner’s characteristics.
A teacher is a curriculum maker.
He/she writes a curriculum daily
through a lesson plan, a unit plan or a
yearly plan.
A developed curriculum
remains inactive, if it is not
implemented.
…teacher role’s shifts from
a developer to an implementer.
Doing implies guiding, facilitating and directing
activities
which will be done by the students.
The teachers’ role as an implementer is very crucial.
Oftentimes, unsuccessful implementation of the curriculum
becomes the root
of e d u c a t i o n a l f a i l u r e ,
thus
some would say that the root of the educationalproblem
is the teacher.
Although educational theorist and practitioners are
giving value the idea of independent learning and
learning how to learn, the role of the teacher in
curriculum implementation has never diminished.
No technology can ever replace a teacher, it will only support
the multifaceted role of the teacher.
In a school organization, there is
always a curriculum manager or
school administrator.
In fact, for school principals, one of
their functions is being a curriculum
manager.

PARENTS
How do the parents shape the curriculum and
why are they consider as
stakeholders?
A. Effective parental involvement in school affairs
may be linked to parent educational programs
which is central to high quality educational
experiences of the children.
B. The parent’s involvement extends from the
confine of the school to the homes.
C. In most schools the Parents Association is
organized
COMMUNITY
MEMBERS
success in the implementation of the
curriculum requires resources.
Respected community members maybe
included in school boards
Some can become resource speakers.
They can provide local and indigenous
knowledge in school curriculum
Professional organizations have shown great influence in
school curriculum.
They are asked by curriculum specialists to contribute
in curriculum review since they have a voice in the
licensure examinations, curriculum enhancement and
many more.
On the other hand, since all schools in the country, are under
the regulation of the government, the government has a great
stake in curriculum implementation.
