Makabayan Learning Competencies

Each one of the learning components of Makabayan in the elementary and secondary schools (Social Studies; Values Education; Technology and Livelihood Education, and Health) has its own learning competencies. These provide the sources of content and processes in the unfolding of lessons in the classroom.

Modes of Integrative Teaching

Four modes of integrative teaching are started in the 2002 Basic Education Curriculum (BEC), these are:

1. Content-Based Instruction (CBI)= refers to integration of content learning with language teaching aims= refers to the current study of language and subject matter with the form and sequence of language presentation dictated by the content materials. = the language curriculum is centered on the academic needs and interest of the learner and crosses the barrier between language and subject matter courses.= this approach aims at developing the learners’ academic language skills.

2. Focusing Inquiry= Inquiry teaching is an interdisciplinary approach that uses questions to organize learning. = the teacher guides learners to discover answers to questions, whether or not answers pre-exist become creators of knowledge rather than recipients.= the process of inquiry is the organizer of the instructional design while content is regulated to an ancillary plane

3. Generic Competency Model.= learners are enrolled in three to four linked courses = the rest essentially on “general competences”= the course assists learners in developing competencies that will transfer readily from one discipline to another.

4. Thematic Teaching.= thematic themes organize learning around ideas= it provides a broad framework for linking content and process from a number of disciplines= the theme provides coherence. It gives a focus to the activities that accompany the unit.= the theme helps the learners see the meaningful connections across disciplines or skill areas. = it conveys a clear compelling purpose to learners, teachers, and parents linking ideas to action and life-long learning.
