Enhanced Teacher Education Curriculum Anchored on Outcome- Based Education Lesson 7.2 Reporter: Aglibot, Marjoree Clarisse c. Cantillo, ammy As a teacher education curriculum initiatives gear towards globalization, contextualization, indigenization and other reforms or enhancements, a lot of harmonization is being done by educators, curriculum specialists, faculty, teachers, students and all stakeholders. Outcome- Based Education is philosophy, system and classroom practice, gives a very strong signal in the reconceptualization of the teacher education curriculum. •Outcome 8: Created and innovated alternative teaching approaches to improve student learning. •Outcome 9: Practiced professional and ethical standards for teacher anchored for both local and global perspective. •Outcome 10: Pursued continuously lifelong learning for personal and professional growth as teachers. These outcomes are set of the beginning of your degree plan. You must put these to heart, so as you go along, you will be able to master these in four years and will be ready to be employed after you get your teacher licensed. Following the principles of OBE, this refers for Principle 1. Clarity of focus and Principle 2. Designing Backwards. Refer to your module 7.1The four Essential Principles in OBE Competencies of Quality Teachers as Mandated By the Department of Education Order no. 42, s. 2017 Philippine Professional Standards for Teachers (PPST) Aside from the quality teacher outcomes of CHED, the Department of Education (DepEd) released a set of teacher competencies that are necessary for teachers who will be teaching in basic education. We shall focus first on the Beginning teachers Competencies for career stage level 1. Beginning teachers are newly employed teachers who are mostly fresh graduates from college. As a beginning teacher, you must possess competencies that will enable you to be ready to be employed. These competencies will strengthen those that you have mastered already in your degree course. But above all the three standards competencies, you should take note of the Philippine qualifications framework, which was discussed earlier. But to give emphasis, let us bring the concept back to this section.

The New Teacher Education Curricula The new features of the teacher education curricula after considering local and global conditions, the commission on Higher Education approved through a Commission Memorandum Order- Program Standards and Guidelines (CMO- PSG). The offering of new teacher education degrees to prepare teachers in basic education. The degree programs are anchored on the principle of OBE, the PQF Framework, the k-12 curricula for basic education and the general education courses for college degrees. To addresses the needed teacher quality for the 21st, the different degree programs will produce future ready teachers in basic education. New and enhanced courses are included in the curriculum. Here are some new features: • All future teachers will be trained on how to use technologies do teaching and learning.( Courses: Technology for teaching and learning 1 and 2 ) • All future teachers will enhance skills in assessment of learning outcomes ( Courses: Assessment 1 and 2 ) • Experiential Learning Courses will be more focused on the application of theory to practice in varied contexts. ( Courses: field study 1 and field study 2 and teaching internship ) • All future teachers in the elementary will be prepared to teach all subject areas including good manners and right conduct and the mother tongue. • There are two degree programs that prepare teachers to teach both in the elementary and secondary levels. (Degrees: Bachelor of physical education (BPEd), Bachelor of technical vocational teacher education (BTVTEd). • A new degree is offered for the teaching of culture and Arts (Bachelor of culture and Arts education). • Two straight degree programs which were formerly the specialization in BEED teacher before are offered now to prepare teacher who will teach early childhood education and special education. (Bachelor in early childhood education and Bachelor in special science education). • All other original courses will be enhanced. A.

Pedagogical Content Knowledge- the subjects will provide foundation, theory and practice in the different aspects of teaching. • Facilitating learned- Centered Teaching and learning •Assessment in learning 1 •Assessment in learning 2 • Technology for teaching and learning 1 • The teacher and the school curriculum •Building and enhancing new literacies across the curriculum C. Experiential Learning Courses- these are subjects that bring together theory and practice. •Field study 1 - Observations of teaching and learning in actual school environment •Field study 2 - Participation and Teaching Assistantship •Teaching Internship The delivery modes may vary from the three modes or a combination of the three. 1. Face to face (F2F) - a traditional delivery mode where the teacher and students are physically present to hold classes in a designated place. One class can be taken as a whole group or small groups at one setting. The different strategies maybe utilized appropriate to the students grouping. 2. Distance Learning or Remote learning - on line or printed module. Distance learning is a delivery mode where the students and teachers are not physically present in one designated place or classroom. For the on-line teacher is stationed in a control hub while the students are connected to the hub. Classes are either synchronous or asynchronous. On the other hand, distance learning using a printed module utilize hard bound materials in printed form, where detailed instructions by the teacher will be followed by the learner. Knowledge and skill of on-technology is required for the first while the second one requires independent learners. 3. Blended learning and flexible Learning- this is a combination of the f2f and the distance learning. The whole course will be using the two delivery modes and should be reflected in the curriculum syllabi. • Experiential Learning (lifelong learning) - following the theory of learning by doing, experiential Learning approach allows the learners to experience learning first hand. Sometimes it is also called immersion, apprenticeship or practicum. Assessment in learning to provide evidences for the achieve learning outcomes The new teacher education curricula utilize multiple assessment methods in and of learning. Since assessment is used to determine the progress of learning (formative) the mastery of learning (summative), multiple ways of doing it is necessary. Thus two courses about assessment are included in the new teaching curricula for all degree programs. These are the assessment in teaching 1 and assessment in teaching 2. Traditional assessment Theories, principles and tools are taken in assessment in teaching 1 and authentic and technology added assessment is taken in the course assessment in teaching 2. In the new teacher education curricula the desired learning outcomes, the contents, the teaching delivery and the assessment should be constructively aligned and interacting as in the figure below.   P ➡ Desired outcomes I ➡ Contents Method E ➡ Assessment for / Assessment of
