My Personal Insights
SINGCO, KATHLEEN O. The stakeholders gives importance to espoused the four major foundations: philosophical, historical, psychological and social foundations are deemed necessary for planning, implementing, and evaluating in a school curriculum. The philosophy in the classroom is to promote learning activities and enhanced the skills and knowledge of the students, the important subjects to be taught, the kind of learning students must have and how they can acquire them, the instructional materials, methods and strategies to be used, and how students will be evaluated. Historical foundations gives importance like what Franklin Bobbit says that curriculum as a science that emphasizes on students' need.
Psychology provides information about the teaching and learning process. It also seeks answers as to how a curriculum be organized in order to achieve students’ learning at the optimum level, and as to what amount of information they can absorb in learning the various contents of the curriculum. Social Foundations inquiry helps to sharpen students’ capacities to understand, analyze, and explain educational issues, policies, and practices in order to improve education. As a future teacher, I will give importance and strengthen the foundations of education. Without the strong foundation then the education will weak and it will never provide a good quality education to the students or no learning at all. The vital role of a teacher is to strengthen the foundation of education in order for us to provide proper education, the values we impart and knowledge that they need to acquire in our capacity.
BARRERA, MARIVIC V. As I observe again in Actin National High School, the teacher that I interviewed is Mr. Junard Umale which is one where we observed before. The teacher is mastered his lesson where curriculum is strongly important that he used. If we based in the foundation, you can deliver your topic accordingly and you also rate the capabilities in learning .Most of the students had also mentally present in the class. In philosophical foundation, you should always remind your students that they come always in school and you should encourage them to school. It is not only the philosophical foundation is important but the three foundation of curriculum is very important in our part as a future teacher, we can used/apply this if you are the field. These are the three foundation of curriculum Historical, Psychological and the social foundation of curriculum.
GELERA, KRISSA MAE O. As I interviewed the teacher in Actin which where we observed, I found out that this foundation of curriculum is most important on conducting a class. It is because base on this foundation, you can rate your students with their capabilities in learning. Most especially, in Philosophical foundation which the students are mentally present to their class, because of oral recitation activity which their teacher give.
But not only is the Philosophical foundation important but also the three foundation of curriculum which the Historical, Psychological, and Social foundations which give a big impart to the curriculum. As a future curricularist, I will use the four foundation of curriculum because it helps me to manage my classroom settings of discussion. It gives a participation or alertness of my students during our discussion. And they were physically and mentally present. And their socialization with others and to their classmates will develop. And when someone presents their works in front of their class they are confident enough to present it in front PANILAGA, LOVELY V. As I interviewed a teacher in Actin National High School which we observe, I realize that the foundation of curriculum is much important in conducting a class discussion, because the teacher or curricularist can determine/identify their students in which they are capable or their every lapses. Specially in Philosophical foundation in which students are mentally present in their class, because there is a one-one question between the teacher and the students or the teacher should ask question to his/her students that the students should answer. But of course, not only Philosophical foundation of curriculum are important but also the three of them which the Historical, Psychological and Social foundation of curriculum they are also effective in conducting a discussion which makes the discussion more lively.
CATUBAY, JUVY ANNE E. As a future curricularist someday, my insights is that this episode is important to know what are the foundations of curriculum development and the importance of it in the school. Knowing the value of philosophical, historical, psychological and sociological is also important. By this episode I know this four foundation of curriculum development are interrelated to each other. As what I have observed the school we are assigned I have this four which help them to improved and their student to be competitive enough.

Situations/ Samples on How These Axioms are Realized in the School Setting Yes indeed it is necessary because if there is no curriculum it’s like going to nowhere.
2. Curriculum reflects its own time. It is a product of its time.
Curriculum should be timeless which means it responds to the change that comes from social forces and education reforms.
3. Curriculum changes made earlier can exist concurrently with newer curriculum changes.
The change that occurs in curriculum development can co-exist, oftentimes overlaps for long period of time.

It is best that teachers design and own the changes.
5. Curriculum development is a cooperative group activity.
Any significant change in curriculum must involved the stakeholders get their support and input.

7. Curriculum development is an on – going process.
AS needs of learners change, as society change, and as new knowledge and technology appear, the curriculum must change.
8. Curriculum development is more effective if it is a comprehensive process not piecemeal.
A curriculum design should be based on a careful plan, intended outcomes clearly established.
9. Curriculum development is more effective when it follows a systematic process.
A curriculum design should always be SMART.
10. Curriculum development starts from where the curriculum is.
An existing design is a good starting point for any teacher who plans to enhance and enrich a curriculum.
