Continuation with K to 12 Curriculum (September 21)

 On this day, we continued our discussion about the curriculum specifically, the K to 12 curriculum, kindergarten has 1 year, Primary education takes 6 years, Junior Highschool is 4 vyears and lastly Senior highschool takes 2 years to finish.

In the middle of our discussion, there is a question in the slide "Are you in favor to continue k-12 curricula? why yes?why not? 






For me, yes because k-12 curriculum gives students to choose between three tracks which are the academic, technical-vocational-livelihood, and sports and arts strand, this will give students opportunities to undergo immersions, have a relevant exposure to a variety of industries and lastly to have an experience in their chosen track. We also discussed about the science curriculum framework, this aims to develop scientific literacy among students that will prepare them to be a informed and participative citizens who are able to make judgements and decisions regarding applications of scientific knowledge that may have social, health or environmental impacts.
