Curriculum Evaluation of the Instructional Design Framework of MATATAG
CURRICULUM and K-12 CURRICULUM
An instructional design framework is a structured model that guides the process of
developing instructional activities and materials. It is based on the pedagogical approaches stipulated in the Enhanced Basic Education Act of 2013 (RA 10533) that clearly specified the curriculum to be learner-centered, developmentally appropriate and inclusive as well as promotes the use of pedagogical approaches such as constructivist, inquiry-based, reflective, collaborative and integrative. On the Pedagogy In the Matatag Curriculum, the pedagogy for text in the language curricula is designed to develop learners' critical reading and writing skills. The approach used in grade 7 is a genre- based approach, which focuses on the study of different text types and the language features that characterize them. Instruction in this key stage emphasizes the importance of exposing learners to a variety of texts, including authentic texts of different genres, to develop their understanding of text structures and language features. Teachers are encouraged to use explicit teaching of text features and modeling of text types as a way to support learners' understanding and use of language because Genre-Based Approach refers to teaching learners how to make use of language patterns to achieve a coherent, purposeful composition (Hyland, 2003). While in the K- 12 Curriculum, used spiral progression approach in which skills, grammatical items, structures and various types of texts will be taught, revised and revisited at increasing levels of difficulty and sophistication. This will allow students to progress from the foundational level to higher levels of language use. On Assessment Assessment practices need to be authentic (Frey, Schmitt, &Allen,2012). Authentic assessment occurs when a teacher observes a learner in the process of working on something real, provides feedback, monitors the learner’s use of the feedback, and adjusts instruction and evaluation accordingly. In the Matatag Curriculum, assessment for text focuses on measuring learners’ ability to comprehend, analyze, and create different types of texts, including literary, informational, and digital texts. Assessment in this domain should be multimodal, incorporating various forms of text, such as print, visual, and digital, and measuring learners’ ability to use different modes and media to communicate effectively. Assessments should also measure learners’ progress in developing their critical literacy skills, including their ability to analyze and interpret texts critically, and to use texts to construct and communicate meaning effectively. While in the K-12 curriculum, holistic approach is used which refers to the ongoing gathering of information on different facets of a child from various sources, with the aim of providing qualitative and quantitative feedback to support and guide the child’s development. In the holistic view of language, assessment procedures are based on the notion that the interrelationships among the various aspects of language, such as phonology, grammar, and vocabulary, among others cannot be ignored. As the four skills of language-listening, speaking, reading and writing - are seen to be parts of a structurally integrated whole. Holistic assessment informs teachers of the teaching practices and guides them in the design and delivery of the student learning.
On Grade Level Standards
