The New GEC Curriculum & The GEC Teacher

• Why the New General Education Curriculum?

• How does it continue the K to 12 curriculum?

• How do we know that students are ready?

• How do we do an Outcomes-Based Syllabus?

• What are the core subjects?

• What can we offer as electives?

• How can we prepare to be a GEC teacher?

Why change GE (external)

No longer multiple-choice world, needfor “big-picture thinking”*

Explosion of knowledge

New globalized, technology-drivenorder

More complex, widespread problems

*Carol Geary Schneider, “In Defense of a Liberal Education,” 10 Aug 2009.

SOURCE: CHED Technical Panel on General Education

Impact of external factors

Greater flexibility, capacity to adapt to

swiftly changing conditions

Broader understanding of

humanity, life and the world (diversity,

complexity)

Keener ability to analyze, reflect,

conceptualize, create solutions

Ability to connect developments and appreciate nuances


Why change GE (internal)

More holistic, less

disciplinal GE

Remedial character of

IMPLICATIONS FOR GEC

Gr. 11 and 12 core subjects will consume

remedial courses in

present GEC.

Specialized courses will

exceed remedial level of

current GE courses.

Portions of present GE

program will thus become unnecessary or irrelevant.

COLLEGE READINESS STANDARDS (CRS)

College readiness standards

• Combination of knowledge, competencies, and reflective thinking necessary for K-12 graduates to participate and succeed—without remediation—in entry-level undergraduate courses in higher education


Produce all forms of texts (e.g., written, oral, visual, digital) based on: a solid grounding on Philippine experience and culture; an understanding of the self, community, and nation; the application of critical and creative thinking and doing processes; competency in formulating ideas/arguments logically, scientifically, and creatively; and a clear appreciation of one’s responsibility as a citizen of a multicultural Philippines and a diverse world.

Systematically apply knowledge, understanding, theory, and skills for the development of the self, local, and global communities using prior learning, inquiry, and experimentation.

Work comfortably with relevant technologies and develop adaptations and innovations for significant use in local and global communities.

Communicate with local and global communities with proficiency, orally, in writing, and through new technologies of communication.

Interact meaningfully in a social setting and contribute to the fulfillment of individual and shared goals, respecting the fundamental humanity of all persons and the diversity of groups and communities.

Objectives are specific intentions that indicate the steps to be taken to achieve our aims or goals as teachers. We can explain here the rationale for offering this course.

CILOs are statements of what students are expected to be able to do as a result of studying this course. They are expressed from the students’ perspective and in the form of action verbs leading to observable and assessable behaviour.

By the end of the course, students should be able to:

TLA: This section is supposed to show (i) how the teacher intends to achieve the CILOs, through what kinds of learning activities, and (ii) how these T&L activities align with the CILOs.

Students will search an electronic English corpus for relevant data on particular grammatical constructions.

AMs: It is not sufficient to say ‘assignments, tests, final exam’. We need to furnish more concrete details about the nature of the assessments. AMs should be aligned with the appropriate CILOs.

The examination will test the students’ ability to identify and explain grammatical errors in a given text.

ELECTIVE SUBJECTS

• Conform to the philosophy and goals of GE

• Apply an inter- or cross-disciplinary perspective

• Draw materials from Philippine realities

• Cover any two domains of knowledge:• Arts and Humanities

• Social Sciences and Philosophy

• Science, Technology, and Mathematics

Student choice of electives

Must cover at least any

two domains of knowledge

To ensure balance across

disciplines and retain

well-rounded character of

GE


The GE subjects need not be taken all in one year. They can be taken across the years.

The GE subjects may be taught in any language or combination of languages that the HEI deems appropriate.









http://www.thethinkingstick.com/what-makes-a-well-rounded-teacher/

http://isites.harvard.edu/fs/docs/icb.topic830823.files/Report%20of%20the%20Taskforce%20on%20General%20Education.pdf

The general education curriculum we have designed aims at four overarching goals in linking the college experience to the world its graduates will confront. These goals are, in many respects, overlapping, and they are not tied to specific disciplines or departments.

General education courses should strive to create a learning environment in which the relationship between teachers and students, and between students and students, is interactive.

• General education prepares students for civic engagement. Civic engagement means participation in public life.

• General education teaches students to understand themselves as products of – and participants in – traditions of art, ideas, and values.

• General education prepares students to respond critically and constructively to change.

• General education develops students’ understanding of the ethical dimensions of what they say and do.

http://www.masternewmedia.org/teaching-skills-what-21st-century-educators-need-to-learn-to-survive/

How to prepare

• Watch TED talks, particularly on education

How to prepare

• Get on Facebook (if you are not yet in it)

• Get on Twitter (if you are not yet in it)

• Open a YouTube channel (if you don’t have one)

• Read 2014 books of all kinds (foreign and Filipino)

• Surf the news every day

• Travel inside and outside the country

• Smell the roses









Summary: GE features

Covers basic knowledge domains in core courses and treats them holistically

Removes remedial courses and others rendered irrelevant by K-12

Provides some element of choice through electives
