1. Discuss teaching as the process in curriculum.
Teaching is something that is difficult to agree upon, many theorists or other teachers
will judge your teaching as unacceptable or inferior to what they do that’s why good teaching
must be shown. Because of the changing paradigms of teaching, several definitions have
evolved based on the theories of learning and teaching that have come about. Teaching also
requires the mastery of the subject, how can you deliver it without losing some of its essence
according to the traditionalists. Thus teaching must be delivered by showing, telling, giving
instruction and making someone understand in order to learn.
2. What can you understand about teaching? Discuss the teaching process.
Teaching for the progressivists is a process in which the learners enables itself to learn
on his own. Teaching is now perceived as stimulating, directing, guiding the learner and
evaluating the learning outcomes of teaching. This means that the process of teaching can be
done with or without the guide of a teacher, what you just need is guide on what and how to
learn, and that’s how teachers are perceived here, they are perceived either as a teacher or as a
guide that helps you evaluate what you have learned.
There are three main process in teaching, these are the planning, implementing and
evaluating phase. But because of the process creating an outcome, it also creates a continuous
process of feedbacks and reflection.
Planning is the phase where you look for the needs of the learner and their goals and
objectives that can be achieved via teaching alone, then therefore the teacher can now plan on
what contents his/her teaching will employ, what motivation will be used to strengthen the
minds and the will of the learners and most importantly, the strategies on how to carry out
goals of the teaching process. After that Evaluation process will commence to measure the
outcome. But before evaluating the teacher must implement the plan, and that is the
Implementation Process. Implementation process is as simple as it sounds, the teacher will just
implement what has been planned. It also includes the two important players, the Teacher who
is going to implement what has been planned and the Student who will be the one to be tested
out the plan. After the process of implementation, then Evaluation process will commence.
Evaluation process is the in which the goals and objective of the teaching must match to the
outcomes that has been garnered throughout the process. A specific information must be
determined so that right evaluation technique will be used. After the three main process is
done, thus the creation of feedbacks and reflection is made. Feedback is the reflection of the
feedback itself while reflection is the process embedded in the teaching where the teacher
inquires into his or her actions and provides deep and critical thinking.
3. Discuss the two principal types of the learning process.
The two principal types of learning process is the behavioral learning theories and the
cognitive learning theories.

Behavioral learning theory emphasizes observable behaviors such as new skills,
knowledge or attitudes which can be demonstrated. These outcomes can be observed and
measured by the teacher and evaluates whether the learner has learned by observing and
measuring the changes in the behavior of the learner. While Cognitive learning theory is
concerned with the human learning in which unobservable mental processes are used to learn
and remember new information or acquired skill. Meaning that, learning cannot be observed or
measured, it is the learner who can say that he learns or not.
4. Discuss how teaching and learning in the curriculum complement and supplement each
other.
Teaching as a process cannot and should not be taken independently into its entirety
because teaching is paired with learning. Without learning, there is no teaching that is
happening. The hand concepts of Learning have become so vast that the simple stimulus-
response theory alone cannot explain it. Thus, we can conclude that Teaching is the cause and
effect of Learning.
5. Name some teaching method & strategies that can be clustered according to the number of
students being taught.
Different teaching method & strategies can be clustered according to the number of students
being taught.
For larger group teaching, methods like lecture, expository, panel discussion, seminar, forum,
demonstration or combination of lecture-demo are appropriate.
For smaller group, role playing, buzz session, workshop, process approach, discovery learning,
and cooperative learning.
For individualized teaching, modular instruction, e-teaching, programmed instruction.
Traditional teaching method: inductive method, deductive method, type study method, project
method, laboratory method, Q&A or Socratic Method & lecture method.
Improved teaching methods: integrative technique, discovery approach, process approach,
conceptual approach, mastery learning, programmed instruction, e-learning, simulation, case-based
teaching, conceptual teaching, cooperative teaching.
