A Perception-Based Curricular Review on the K to 12 HUMSS Strand Curriculum

Author: Edwin B. Estrera, University of the Philippines Cebu, Philippines Email: [email protected] Published: November 27, 2020 https://doi.org/10.22492/ije.8.4.02

Citation : Estrera, E. B. (2020). A Perception-Based Curricular Review on the K to 12 HUMSS Strand Curriculum. IAFOR Journal of Education: Studies in Education , 8 (4). https://doi.org/10.22492/ije.8.4.02

This study examines the perception of Humanities and Social Science teachers among public Senior High Schools in the Department of Education’s Humanities and Social Sciences strand in the Philippines. It uses Erden’s element-based model of evaluation by considering the alignment to the goals of the Humanities and Social Sciences disciplines, the purpose, and core courses of the program, and the teaching-learning process. It also uses Tyler’s Rationale as frameworks in assessing the curriculum. Likewise, the study examines the problems and difficulties in curricular implementation. Upon administering a survey to 25 Humanities and Social Science teachers among four public senior high schools, data revealed that the respondents perceived the curriculum goals, and the purpose of the program as highly observed, while the core courses of the program and teaching-learning process were satisfactorily observed in the curriculum. Also, sex and age were not factors in their level of assessment of Humanities and Social Science goals. The problems and difficulties encountered by teachers included unbalanced time allocation of learning competencies, lack of available learning materials, and lack of specialized teachers. Based on the findings, it is suggested that the government provide stronger teacher support programs to address the gap in curriculum implementation. The K to 12 program also needs a full review, as the study only provides a presurvey to more significant institutional issues. While the Humanities and Social Science curriculum appears aligned with the goals of their disciplines, and to the country’s educational goals, its realization still depends upon the teachers’ implementation in the classroom level.

Should all U.S. public school students be able to eat breakfast and lunch at no cost, regardless of their family’s income ? The federal government temporarily made that possible during the COVID-19 pandemic. Since then, some states have taken it upon themselves to make it happen on a permanent basis. The Conversation U.S. asked Marlene B. Schwartz and Juliana Cohen , two scholars of school nutrition, to explain why this issue has become more prominent and what they expect the next presidential administration to do about it.

How many K-12 students get free meals at school?

The National School Lunch Program provides nutritious meals for over 28 million students each day . Students living in low-income households can receive meals for free or at a reduced price . However, there can be barriers to participating in school meals for families, including the stigma associated with receiving free meals or challenges completing school meal applications. Many families are also not eligible for free or reduced-price meals but may be struggling financially. Overall, this can lead to school meal debt if a child eats breakfast or lunch at school but the family cannot afford the cost .

In March 2020 , Congress realized that more students might face food insecurity – not having consistent access to enough nutritious food – due to school closures in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. So lawmakers temporarily authorized the U.S. Department of Agriculture to provide school meals at no cost for all students nationwide and to give schools more flexibility in terms of how they could distribute food to families with children.

This unexpected natural experiment illustrated the benefits of providing healthy meals for all children . Eight states – California, Colorado, New Mexico, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota and Vermont – have chosen to provide free meals for all public school students since the USDA stopped funding universal free school meals after the 2021-22 school year.

There is evidence that families with children living in states that provide free meals across the board have lower rates of food insufficiency , another way to measure the share of people who can’t get enough food on the table.

Some states have instead opted to expand access to free meals without making them universal, including Connecticut, Arizona, Louisiana and Texas. They are providing free meals to students who were previously eligible for reduced-price meals. New Jersey has increased the number of students with access to free meals at its public schools by 60,000.

At the federal level, the USDA expanded access to the Community Eligibility Provision in the fall of 2023. This enables individual schools or entire school districts with large numbers of low-income students to provide free meals to all students. This policy was originally implemented as part of the Obama administration’s Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010. The number of schools where all kids get free meals is rising . Nearly 20 million U.S. children attended a public or charter school participating in the Community Eligibility Provision during the 2022-23 school year, up 22.5% from the prior school year.

Due to all the steps taken to increase access to free meals, about two-thirds of public and charter school students received school meals for free during the 2023-24 school year.

What does the latest research say about universal free school meals?

A large body of research has found that universal free school meals benefit students.

When the meals served at school are free for everybody, studies have found that more students eat them, including students who were already eligible for free school meals.

This could happen because providing free meals to all children may reduce the stigma of eating school meals.

A literature review we conducted with several colleagues found that providing lunch at no cost for all students was associated with multiple positive outcomes: better nutrition, lower food insecurity rates, higher attendance and higher academic achievement.

The nutrition finding makes sense in light of research documenting that school meals are usually healthier than what children eat at home and elsewhere. We are working on a new study that assesses whether the families of students at schools with universal free meals are less likely to experience food insecurity because they can spend more money on food eaten at home.

Free meals also mean students run no risk of incurring unpaid school meal debt . This debt can take a toll on kids, their families and even their schools, which often have to use other operational funds to cover this debt.

In states without universal free school meal policies, unpaid school meal debt continues to climb . In the fall of 2023, this debt ranged from as little as US$10 up to $1 million per school district. The median amount was about $5,500 – more than double the debt owed a decade earlier.

Why did Walz make this a priority in Minnesota?

In March 2023, Gov. Tim Walz signed a measure into law making all meals served at the state’s public and charter schools free . It also eliminated all preexisting school meal debt.

As a former teacher, Walz recognized the benefits of free meals. “It makes a huge difference in the lives of those families and the savings they see,” he said in January 2024 . “It makes a huge difference in the moment for those students, and we know in the long run it’ll make a difference in achievement and the well-being of those students.”

What might happen in a Harris-Walz administration?

Universal free school meals has been a priority for Walz in Minnesota, and as such, we are optimistic that a Harris-Walz administration would recognize the potential benefits of making school meals available at no cost for all children in the United States. Another option would be to boost federal funding to enable more schools to participate in the Community Eligibility Provision.

What would you expect to see in a second Trump administration?

Donald Trump’s administration made multiple attempts to weaken the nutritional quality of school meals despite evidence supporting their benefits for students. For example, they rolled back expectations that kids would be served more whole grains and stalled efforts to decrease sodium levels.

Project 2025 , a package of policy proposals authored by people closely tied to Trump’s 2024 presidential bid – but that the campaign has sought to disavow – calls for cuts in federal spending that helps fund universal free school meal programs.

It also recommends eliminating the Community Eligibility Provision , a step that many Republican lawmakers support . We would expect a second Trump administration to weaken the positive impacts of school meal programs.

Objectives: The study determined the competencies of teachers and performance of learners in 2017-2018 National Achievement Test.It identified the influence of teachers' competencies on performance of learners. Methods: It employed descriptive-correlational and explanatory designs and it involved three divisions in Northern Mindanao region, Philippines. Findings: The Grade 10 and 6 teachers have possessed very satisfactory competencies across areas, while the Grade 10 and Grade 6 learners had a low mastery and very low mastery, respectively. Furthermore, there was no significant relationship between the competencies of teachers and the performance of learners, while their competencies did not significantly influence the performance of learners. Conclusion: Teachers were deemed competent in all areas and learners had not acquired most of the competency standards of the curricula. Hence, no matter how competent teachers are, this would not contribute significantly to improving the performance of learners in the National Achievement Test. Thus, competencies of teachers cannot determine the performance of learners.

Every school needs an advocate leader who can influence others to address issues, concerns, and problems that affect education, its quality, access, and the welfare of the stakeholders, especially that of the learners. This leader needs to subscribe to the redefined roles and nature of leadership. Advocacy leadership challenges educational leaders to take a progressive stance on pressing educational issues and problems. The next in line leaders need to awaken in themselves a specific advocacy and tune-in to this new trend. With this, a qualitative inquiry explored the educational advocacies of twenty graduate students involved in focus group discussions and interviews. Using the thematic network as an analytical framework, the inquiry identified 46 keywords, 51 basic themes, and 6 organizing themes. Thus, a new thematic network of educational advocacies was generated. Learners’ welfare was the most dominant educational advocacy of graduate students, while leadership and governance, ...

Indigenous Culture, Education and Globalization

Jayeel Cornelio

http://www.springer.com/gp/book/9783662481585 This chapter looks into the interplay of indigenous education and global citizenship in the Philippines. The country is one of the first nations in Asia to have passed a law recognizing the specific needs of its indigenous people (IP). In 1997, the Indigenous People’s Rights Act was passed into law to ensure that IPs have access to basic health and education. But much has remained wanting in its implementation even after two decades. This chapter spells out first the historical development and the emergent conceptualization of indigenous education insofar as national policy is concerned. After which, local experiences of indigenous education are considered – particularly, the case of a local school in Bukidnon, the Apu Palamguwan Cultural Education Center; and an institutional program, the Philippine’s Response to Indigenous Peoples’ and Muslim Education. The chapter concludes by considering whether or not the concept of global citizenship is understood at the level of both policy and local experience.

The study aimed to determine the effectiveness of Grade 8 Enhanced Learning Materials in Science for the Open High School Program (OHSP) under the K to 12 Basic Education Curriculum in Hagonoy National High School during the school year 2013-2014. The researcher used the randomized pretest-posttest control group design experimental research design in order to attain such objectives. The participants of this study were the randomly selected Grade 8 OHSP students subjected to investigation from November 2013 to January 2014. Data were being gathered, collated and analyzed using relative frequency, mean, standard deviation and t-test for independent sample. Grade 8 students who formed part of this study were mostly females aged 14 years old with monthly family income of PhP 2,001.00 to PhP 4,000.00 and PhP 4,001.00 to PhP 6,000.00. The level of effectiveness in using both the Enhanced Learning Materials and DepEd Learning Materials in Grade 8 Science in the pretest signifies a beginning level of performance. The level of effectiveness in using the Enhanced Learning Materials in Grade 8 Science in the posttest signifies a proficient level of performance while the level of effectiveness in using the DepEd Learning Materials in Grade 8 Science in the posttest signifies an approaching proficiency level of performance. There was no significant difference between the pretest performance of OHSP students using the Learning Materials of DepEd and with the Enhanced Learning Materials in Science. A significant difference exists between the posttest performance of OHSP students using the Learning Materials of DepEd and the Enhanced Learning Materials in Grade 8 Science. The pretest and posttest performance of students using the Learning Materials of DepEd in Grade 8 Science was found to be significantly different. A significant difference was found between the pretest and posttest performance of students using the Enhanced Learning Materials in Grade 8 Science.

This study investigated the public schools teachers' level of awareness of the provisions of Republic Act 4670 or the Magna Carta for Public School Teachers of the Republic of the Philippines. It also determined the significant difference, if any, in the level of awareness between elementary and high school teachers. Also, it identified the relationship between teachers' number of years of teaching experience and their level of awareness of RA 4670. Public school teachers from both elementary and high schools in Negros Oriental were the participants of the study and they were reached through the online survey conducted by the researchers using a questionnaire designed and validated for such purpose. The result of the study showed that public school teachers have high level of awareness on the following provisions: no probationary period is required for eligible teachers; teacher's consent is required for station transfers; privacy of all pending disciplinary actions agai...

The study investigated into the research engagement of public-school teachers in Northern Mindanao - Region X for the years 2018-2019. It is a qualitative study on the completed action researches on Teaching and Learning being one of the research themes of DepEd’s Basic Research Agenda. Specifically, through secondary data analysis on pertinent archives referenced from the official reports submitted by the fourteen (14) Schools Divisions and through narrative analysis of interviews and FGD responses, the findings indicate that more than half (60.76%) of the action researches studied on Instruction, some on Curriculum (17.72%), few on Learning Outcomes (12.24%), very few are about the Learners (5.91%), and the least on Assessment (3.38%). The findings highlight significant implications on the didactic triad, the teaching and learning and content, as a strong research focus of the teachers. However, the little research focus of teachers on the Learners and Assessment may not uncover t...
