Activity 2: Thinking Venn

Using the curriculum guide, compare and contrast the elementary from the secondary studies
curriculum by accomplishing the thinking Venn below.
Challenge
Answer the following question. Substantiate your point by providing relevant facts/data.
1. Are the themes in Araling Panlipunan relevant to the context of the Philippine society?
Araling Panlipunan (Social Studies) in the Philippine Makabayan Learning Area: Problems
and prospects in articulating social studies as a discipline.
2. Is the expanding environment model appropriate for elementary social Studies curriculum?
The historical development of the expanding environments sequence in the elementary
social studies curriculum. In this sequence, the child's study of the world begins with the home
and family in the first grade and proceeds to the neighborhood, the community, the state, the
nation, regions of nearby nations, and the world.
3. Suggest ways on how to make the elementary social curriculum more relevant for 21st century
Filipino learners.
Social Studies is a key tool in this changing world. It serves as the foundation of social
development across the country and acts as an agent of change that transforms an individual into
an effective citizen of the nation. Moreover, the Philippine K to 12 curriculum accentuates the role
of social studies in developing the learners’ literacy and effective engagement as a citizen of the
country. This study aims to elicit the junior high school students' perspectives on the significance
of social studies in 21st-century society. It involved 25 Grade 7 students enrolled in a public
secondary school in Zambales, Philippines. This study used a qualitative descriptive design with
a semi-structured interview guide as the primary gathering tool. Thematic analysis was used in
analyzing the data. Five major themes emerged from the categorized statements of the
participants. Social studies is still relevant today as it encourages community participation,
enhances critical and creative thinking, fosters cultural sensitivity, broadens global perspective,
and promotes values formation. Moreover, participants claimed that social studies promotes
cultural heritage, fosters economic efficiency, serves as a source of meaningful information, and
brings people back to the past. The study recommends that teachers should enhance their
technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) in Social Studies to keep abreast with the
demands of 21st-century society. Further, teachers are encouraged to make the teaching of
Social Studies contextualized, indigenized and localized to make it responsive and relevant in the
current setting.

Guide Questions:
• Are the standards (performance, content, and learning competencies) clearly articulated ?
if not, can you please elaborate your response?
According to Mrs. Emilie Nitro (Teacher II) of Bigain Elementary School that learning standards
are concise, written descriptions of what students are expected to know and be able to do at a
specific stage of their education. Learning standards describe educational objectives, what
students should have learned by the end of a course, grade level, or grade span—but they do not
describe any particular teaching practice, curriculum, or assessment method.
• Are the prescribed standards achievable? Why or why not?

Yes, it is guide instruction by providing a common focus for policy and practice. At the policy
level, they provide guidelines for the development of assessments, instructional materials and
professional development oppurtunities, thus helping teacher’s decisions about what to teach.

• Can you suggest ways on how to improve the said standards?

Develop strong work ethic, keep your commitments and over deliver to stand out from the crowd.
Find your strengths and develop upon them to provide value to the world.
