Activity 2 – Recall of your Educational Beliefs or Philosophy
When you took up a course related to educational philosophy, you were guided
to declare some belief statements on education. What do you believe in now that you
are to be a student teacher?
1. School
The school is the training ground for the students. In the Kto12 curriculum, the
school includes well-trained teachers, sufficient facilities, and progressive
students. It would be the place wherein the students will be able to develop
their total well-being including the cognitive thinking skills, creativity, values
and behavior, and skills in applying what they have learned.
2. Learners
The learners are the ones acquiring knowledge. In the Kto12 curriculum, they
have more advanced learning and are already prepared to face the real world
because they have practiced their skills in their 12 years of schooling. They are
already progressive, competent enough, and can therefore be globally
competitive in the future.
3. Curriculum
The curriculum is the heart of an institution. With the Kto12 curriculum, the
curriculum would be more enhanced and developed. The contents would be
organized and more effective due to the additional two years. Also, the
curriculum is consisting of the subject matter. However, it’s more on the
application of knowledge through learning activities and experiences.
4. Teaching
The teaching methodologies are effective and appropriate to the students. It’s
because the teachers were already trained enough to know what’s best for the
students. With regards to the Kto12 curriculum, the methods of teaching are
more experience-based because it would serve as the preparation for the
future career of the students.
5. Teachers
The teachers are the ground work that facilitate the teaching and learning
process. The teachers are considered as the thread that ties. They are no
longer the sole source of learning but rather, they let the students to discover
their own learnings. The teachers’ task is not only to teach the students what to
learn, but also on how to learn.
