MODULE III

IMPLEMENTING THE CURRICULUM

Pilot Testing, Monitoring and

Evaluating The Implementation Of
The Curriculum

Pilot Testing Or Field Try

Out
This process will gather empirical
data to support whether the material
or the curriculum is USEFUL,
RELEVANT, RELIABLE, VALID.
-

Usually follows an EXPERIMENTAL

METHOD.
However an initial process can be
done without any comparison group.

EXAMPLE:
A group of curriculum
specialist was commissioned
to prepare instructional
materials on mangroves.

- The materials are educational

modules ( elementary children
in the public schools who live
along the coastal areas.
- the curricular materials are
were written to better
understand and advocate the
preservation of mangoes in the
country.

1st try
Small group
out of grade 5

students
- Did the various activities
according to procedure.
- Two days were spent to the
first tryout.
- The result of the first tryout
guided the curriculum
specialist to continue writing
the other parts of the
curriculum materials.

2nd try
out
- Was done by students,
using a complex set of
written materials from the
advanced readings to the
field work.
- Longer time was spent.
- the try out provided
information for the final
revision of the materials.

3rd try
out
Final try-out

validated the result of

the first and second
try-outs thus after the
third try-out the
materials were ready
for printing and
distribution.

The TRY-OUT or PILOT

TESTING assures the
teachers and the
schools that indeed
the curriculum
materials are ready
for use.

One group no
control groups

- one group of
students was
utilized.

 At the end of the tryout the result of their

performance will be

This design can be
used in the third tryout

Department of Education
- Basic Education Curriculum
(BEC)
2002
- Labeled as the pilot year of
implementation.
- Revitalized Basic Education
Curriculum (RBEC)
- In each subject area of
modification, revisions, and
enhancement from the originals
were made.

CURRICULUM

Curriculum
Monitoring

Curriculum Evaluation
School-Based Evaluation
(SBE)

Accreditation

CURRICULUM MONITORING
- How are we doing?
- Is the curriculum accomplishing its intended
purpose?
* Important to determine if the curriculum is still
relevant and effective.
* Is a periodic assessment and adjustment
during the try out period.
* Its like formative evaluation.
* Determines how the curriculum is working.
* Provides decision that would even end or
terminate the program.

CURRICULUM EVALUATION
-Systematic process of judging
the value, effectiveness and
adequacy of a curriculum.
- its process, product and settings
which lead to informed decision.
EVALUATION should be useful and
systematic.

SCHOOL BASED EVALUATION

- Approach to curriculum evaluation

which places the content, design,
operation, and maintenance of
evaluation procedure in the hands
of school personnel.
- The localized nature of the SBE
ensures evaluation which is
relevant, meaningful and useful at
the school level.

SCHOOL BASED EVALUATION

- A range of evaluation
activities may take place
within the school.
- It can be undertaken by a
single teacher, small group
of teacher or even the
entire school.

ADVANTAGES OF SCHOOL BASED

EVALUATION
Accountability is shared by all,
hence bias and conflict are
minimized.
School personnel develop
evaluation skills.
The real concerned of the school
and community are addressed by
the evaluation.
Broad participation provides
opportunities for building schools
cohesiveness.
Provides reliable and valid

ACCREDITATION
-

Voluntary process of submitting a

curricular program to an external
accrediting body for review in any
level of education to assure
standard.
Among the purpose are to foster
excellence and improved programs.
The curricular accreditation will
assure the academic community,
other agencies and the general
public that the curriculum meets
standards comparable to other
excellent institutions offering similar

AREAS FOR ACCREDITATION

UNDER CURRICULUM AND
INSTRUCTION.
1.Curriculum And Program Of Studies
2. Classroom Management
3. Instructional Processes Or
Methodologies
4. Graduation Requirements
5.Administrative Support For Effective
Instruction
6. Evaluation Of Academic Performance
Of Students.

CURRICULUM AND PROGRAM OF STUDIES

Includes cluster of knowledge, skills, attitudes,
values and experiences that will provide the
students at any level with necessary
competencies for effective learning.
A list of subjects or courses to be taken and
arranged in a logical order to compose the
program of studies.
All schools are mandated by the specific
government agencies to comply with the
minimum requirements of the curriculum
programs through the issuance of
memoranda.

CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT
The teacher who implements the
curriculum sees to it that
management of teaching and
learning in the classroom follows
procedure and guidelines to
enhance and create an environment
conducive to learning.
A good classroom management
provides opportunities to develop
independent and lifelong learners
who uphold and observe democratic
practices.

INSTRUCTIONAL PROCESSES OR
METHODOLOGIES
There are varied teaching methodologies
that are compatible with the different
learning styles of the students.
As teachers, there is a need to know not
only the steps or strategies of teaching
but to understand the pedagogical
content knowledge of each strategy.
Curriculum accreditors see to it that
different methodologies are utilized in
the classrooms by the teachers for
effective teaching-learning process.

GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS
GRADUATION means successful accomplishment of
the curricular program of studies.
These requirements are clearly understood upon
enrolment in college by the students and by parents
for the students in elementary and high school.
Some curricula provide activities that are necessary
and should be accomplished as a graduation
requirement.
There are also examinations that are given to fully
complete the program of studies.
There are schools that have additional requirement
other than prescribed by DEPED and CHED.

ADMINISTRATIVE SUPPORT FOR EFFECTIVE

INSTRUCTION
A curriculum can be best implemented if there is
support of the school administration.
School principal has a distinct responsibility of a
curricular manager or manager of learning.
The required physical facilities are the primary
responsibilities of the school administrators.
Procurement of books and equipment should be
made possible to facilitate instructions.
School class schedules as well as policies and
quality instruction should be given proper attention
that ensures effective curricular outcomes

Evaluation Of Academic Performance Of Students

The evaluation of students performance
should make use of valid and reliable tools
which are periodically reviewed and revised.
student should be informed and clarified about
the grading system as well as the standards
used.
Schedules of examination should be given in
advance and the results communicated to
them.
Recognition like scholarships, certificates, and
merits should be given.
Success of the school curriculum is shown in
the results of evaluation of students
performance.
