The Problem and Its Background

The government shall protect and promote the right of all citizens to quality education at all levels (Philippine Constitution, 1987) and has a responsibility to guarantee the people’s right to education (UDHR, 1948). Michail (2012) further described education as a basic human right that enable an individual to live his full potential as a human being. It is perceived by the masses as a stepping stone out of poverty. More importantly, education is of great importance for nation-building because it can mold the consciousness of the youth toward particular purposes. According to Philippine Development Plan (2011-2016), Aquino’s regime would aim to harness private-sector resources in the advocacy for education, especially higher education. Philippines in particular is trying to cope the demand of globalization gearing up to quality education as manifested in its active membership in international organization such as Asia-Pacific Economic Corporation (APEC), United Nation Educational, Scientific and Cultural organization (UNESCO) and United Nations (UN) to improve its educational system as its aim to join the “tiger” economies in Asia (Malaya, 1993). According to Villar (1999), we have to make our graduates globally competitive so that we will not be left behind. The Education for All program stresses that attention to

    Magna Carta for Students

    EXPLANATORY NOTE One of the biggest foundations of a progressive nation is an educated population. Development in the different areas of knowledge such a science and technology, business, medicine, social science and others have brought about drastic advancement in our present society. In an increasingly demanding and dynamic global economy, competitiveness, more than an advantage, is a must. As expressed in the Philippine Constitution, education is one of the priorities of the State. Aside from the basic needs such as food, shelter and clothing, it is one of the primary necessities that the State should provide for its constituents. While the private sector is an active participant in the promotion of education at present, the governrnent should still lead in ensuring its quality and accessibility. It should be recognized that the full development of the students is not dependent merely on books and lectures. Aside from providing them with an environment conductive to learning, it is the duty of the State to ensure the quality of education that goes beyond the corners of the classroom; for indeed the true lessons in life are gained in the real world. However, the present formal educational system has, in one way or another, deprived the students of the chance to develop their full potential. This Magna Carta for Students intends to equalize the chance of the students to admission in school and to avail of competent and quality education. It seeks to provide measures to ensure that the students are able to exercise their rights to organize, right to participate in policy-making, right to academic freedom, and right to free expression and information. For these reasons, the passage of this bill is earnestly sought.…

    Research Paper About K-12 Instruction Program

    term of our essential instruction program puts Filipinos who are intrigued to either work or concentrate abroad off guard. This is on account of different nations see our 10-year program as inadequate, which at that point, makes Filipino graduates not be considered as experts abroad (Velasco, 2012). Given all these supporting realities, there is without a doubt a need to move forward the nature of essential instruction by improving it and by extending the fundamental education cycle (Velasco, 2012). Besides, as displayed in the article of Velasco (2012) identified with An Introduction on the new K-12 Philippine Educational programs, President Benigno S. Aquino reported: "We have to add two years to our essential instruction. The individuals who can bear the cost of pay up to fourteen years of tutoring before college. Accordingly, their youngsters are getting into the best colleges and the best employments after graduation. He said that he need no less than 12 years for our state funded school kids to give them an even possibility at succeeding. "In accordance with this, the 1987 Philippine Constitution expresses that, "The State might build up, keep up, and bolster a total, sufficient, and coordinated arrangement of instruction pertinent to the necessities of the general population and the general public." Such order offers equity to the fundamental privileges of each Filipino tyke: the privilege to quality instruction and the privilege to a quality life. Besides as indicated by the K to 12 Deped Primer…

    Esl Education in China

    22 chapters and 27,000 words plan China’s future educational initiatives. The pledges amongst these pages promise a future China that is more dedicated to quality education, available to all. Amongst the proponents of this large document, many seek to vastly change the face of “international education” programs that are present in public schools in China today. There are those that wish to abolish it entirely, but most merely seek to increase quality by developing standards, reforms and requirements to decrease the presence of inefficiency and corruption. With such vast changes taking place by the year 2020, programs, such as AEF, must have a competitive advantage. In order to create a more sustainable, long-term international education program, AEF must develop and implement a higher quality plan of action, based on sound educational theory and forward-thinking marketing practices.…

    Readiness of Kindergarten Teachers along K-12 Curriculum

    One of the major reforms in our country’s educational system is Republic Act 10157, otherwise known as “The Kindergarten Education Law” or the K to12 (K+12). This Law made the Kindergarten compulsory and mandatory entry to basic education. This Law was initiated by the Aquino administration in order to address the perceived decreasing quality of education in the country, and to meet the international standard regarding the number of years in basic education. This program will require all incoming students to enroll into two more years of basic education. The K+12 System will include the Universal kindergarten, 6 years of elementary, 4 years of junior high school with an additional 2 years for senior high school. The program is implemented and formulated along with the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) and with the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA). The current k-12 model that had been implemented in the country is an educational landscape for basic and secondary system patterned after the United States, Canada and some parts of Australia had done it. According to Patricia Velasco’s article, the K- 12 Curriculum envisions “holistically developed learners with 21st century skills” (DepEd Primer, 2011). This further means that every student would have an understanding of the world around him and a passion for life-long learning while addressing every student’s basic learning needs: “learning to learn, the acquisition of numeracy, literacy, and scientific and technological knowledge applied to daily life” (p.6). The main objective of the K to 12 curriculum is to achieve the DepEd’s goal of eradicating illiteracy rate in the country. “No child is left behind.” (source). Every Filipino has the right to receive quality education in order to become an asset in all dimensions, competent, efficient, effective and productive citizen leading to a decent and…

    Education and School Activities

    Every developing society must aim at free, compulsory universal education as the highest national priority. However, considerable analysis of the education process is required if the enormous effort that this objective implies is to prove worthwhile. Education is normally thought of as the process by which the formalized knowledge of a society is passed on its young through institutions of learning of one sort or another. It has however a wider connotation implying all the means by which the youth are prepared for the adult experience and, indeed, the young and not so young equipped to play their part in society. It is in this wider sense that extra- curricular activities be considered along with education in developing the country. Obviously, for a country like Philippines, education is crucial since every aspect of our society reflects the failure to achieve a harmony between aspiration and performance or even between the existence of resources and their use.…
