1. WHY THERE IS A NEED TO ARTICULATE FROM GRADE SCHOOL TO HIGH SCHOOL?
There is a need to articulate the lessons from grade school to high school to that there is a connection between the lower level and the next level. So that if the students entering high school, they will not be surprised because the lesson still related when they are elementary. As a teacher, you should discuss the lesson from step by step.

AS A TEACHER, I NEED TO UNDERSTAND FULLY WELL THE DIMENSION OF CURRICULUM DESIGN BECAUSE this is really needed when you are in the teaching profession. This must be followed to avoid confusion in the part of the students. The teacher should be aware of these things so that whenever or whatever school she will be assigned, she had already the knowledge about the dimensions of curriculum design and in order for her to also understand the curriculum she belongs, for her to respect the curriculum of the school that she presently teaching.

INTERVIEW A TEACHER IN THE SCHOOL YOU VISITED AND INQUIRE HOW THEY HAVE UTILIZED THEIR PARENTS AS SCHOOL PARTNERS IN EDUCATION.
Parents and families are by far the most important influences in a child's life. Their support can play a vital role at all stages of education. Parents who take on a supportive role in their child’s learning make a difference in improving achievement and behavior. Clear, open channels of communication facilitate reporting to parents on their child's progress. Using effective channels of communication and getting parents involved in personal learning planning helps to build strong relationships and encourages involvement in the child's learning and progress.

AS A FUTURE TEACHER, I NEED TO KNOW AND UNDERSTAND THE SIX FEATURES OF THE CURRICULUM BECAUSE… I should know the 6 features of curriculum because they are necessary in the teaching and learning process. These 6 are interrelated to each other and absence of this will be a problem in delivering the curriculum .They are the key terms which is necessary to understand its meaning and its role In the curriculum.

SELECT ONE INNOVATION AND COMPLETE THE DISCUSSION WEB BELOW. INTERVIEW EDUCATION STUDENTS TO GET THEIR IDEAS ON CURRICULAR INNOVATIONS. NO 1. Parents have to shell out more money (for transportation and food) for the education of their children. 2. The government does not have the money to pay for two more years of free education, since it does not even have the money to fully support today’s ten years. DepEd must first solve the lack of classrooms, furniture and equipment, qualified teachers, and error-free textbooks. 3. While students are stuck in Grades 11 and 12, colleges and universities will have no freshmen for two years. This will spell financial disaster 4. for many private Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). 5. The drop-out rate will increase because of the two extra years.

YES * Most graduates are too young to enter the labor force.” Since most children start Grade 1 when they are 6 years old, they do not reach the legal employable age of 18 when they graduate from high school today. * “The congested curriculum partly explains the present state of education.” Twelve years of content are crammed into ten years.

DO WE REALLY NEED TO MOTIVATE

A great education is born out of innovation. It’s measured by how many lives have been transformed, how many ideas have been raised and how many new discoveries have been made. True innovation doesn’t stop short of raising questions, but also develops solutions and summons the courage to change for the greater good. Education is the backbone of one’s career future. However, education often gives the impression that it is boring. Therefore, we should come up with ways to make education more innovative. There are three ways to make education more innovative.

The first way to make education more innovative is by improving the methods of teaching used by educators today. While teaching, educators should try making hilarious jokes now and then and be more humorous. They should also be more friendly and sporting by interacting with students as friends. Educators could try to know the students better, learn their point of view of the teaching in class and try not to be rigid. By creating a more comfortable environment, students can remember facts better. No one likes to study and learn when they are pressured.

Besides that, another way to make education more innovative is by having extra activities in and out of the class. Quiz and riddles should be given to students now and then as it is a fun way to test what they have learned. Once in a while, educators should let the students play educational games. Research has shown that fun ways education could boost the memory of the students. Apart from that, field trips should be held more often to let students experience the outside world. By seeing and experiencing, they can remember better. This also interests the better compared to normal classes.

Lastly, the third way to make education more innovative is by having group activities like group discussions and group studies among students. By having group activities, students could learn how to do things in a group and develop teamwork among the students. Communication skills could be enhanced as students need to communicate among each other during discussions. In addition, knowledge and experience could be shared among the students. Thus, students could learn about other people’s point of view and learn new things
