The Implementation of K+12
The current System of Education in the Philippines is in the brink of extinction, for a new Education System is being proposed. The existing system of 6 years in Elementary, and 4 years in Secondary before entering Tertiary is being challenged. In fact, a major reform in the Education System is on the horizon, and this shall radically change the way Filipinos are educated.

Many queries arise because of the new system. Students, parents and even educators doubt the effectiveness of the K+12. Contrarily, the Department of Education does not want to be stopped and is determined to pursue the program. On a reform as massive as this, it is expected that the opinions of the people are divided; after all, it depends in the K+12 on how the Education of the country will progress.

It is proper then that the public be educated about the issue. Parents must know about this because in it depends the Education of their child; students must know about this because in it depends the way on how they would be educated; and educators must know about this because in it depends how they’ll educated the students.

The purpose of this essay is straightforward: to inform the public about the issue and present my arguments regarding the K+12. I will embark upon the effectiveness of the implementation of K+12, not necessarily the effectiveness of K+12 as a system. In Education lies the future of a society; it is appropriate then that the students be educated properly, because their individual as well as societal growth depends in it. (MJ

    Through his logical and familiar depiction of the situation, highlighted by his use of humor, Kahn is able to translate a rather complex issue into an argument that anyone can understand and offers a solution. Even though he is the pioneer of this idea, his clear understanding and depiction of the situation lend weight to his idea, even to those who might now know who he is. Many would agree that there are problems with the education system and Kahn highlights those while also explaining why they happen. If someone then considers the success that Kahn has had with Kahn Academy, it is clear that his ideas have some merit. Perhaps the most compelling part of his argument is his portrait of what the future could be like with a better education system. With a little effort, perhaps in the not-so-distant future the education system could be improved enough to allow everyone to contribute to difficult problems facing…

    The principle of humanism and egalitarianism has been the anchor of Philippine education. Over the decades, Filipinos considered education as the key to success, or roughly translated, the key to a stable job and eventually to the elevation of their social status. The latter ensures that neither poverty nor difference in political creed and culture shall pose obstacles to the fulfillment of this basic need. The whole facet of the learning process shall ensure the provision of good quality and relevant education. Such quality education shall be an instrument in the pursuit of the common good, peace and unity, environmental security and sustain growth and development.…

    The government has not revised the curriculum for public elementary schools in 13 years. Meanwhile, the curriculum for public high schools has not been changed for almost two decades, in sharp contrast to the general practice worldwide, which calls for a revision every 10 years. That is why the RBEC, which is responsive to the ever- changing world, is badly needed, senior education department officials argued. To actualize a gracious life in our changing world, Filipino learners need an education system that empowers them for a life-long learning. Or (the system) that enables them to be (more) competent in learning how to learn even when they are left to themselves, said Dr. Fe Hidalgo,…

    I would describe our first session was a lax since, it is considered a preliminary of a full pack summer class, however, just like a branch of a tree that has a lot offshoots, it promises a lot of learnings. As our professor puts it, it is very interesting subject and indeed it was, it is and it will be. I learned, that majority of our educational thrusts are governed by Article XIV of the Philippine Constitution which states that “The state shall encourage nonformal, informal and indigenous education learning system, as well as self-learning independent and out –of school study programs particularly those that respond to community needs”. It is in this statement that assures that Philippine education is characterized by equity and accessibility. The tangible proof of this was the establishment of Non Formal Education then now it’s ALS, which is parallel learning viable alternative to the existing formal education instructions. This means that states and the department specifically recognizes the pressing demands of educating Filipinos so that the will become a functional citizen of this country.…
