Provide answers to the following questions with minimum of 10 sentences for each item
1. What are the possible benefits/advantages of having an official prescribed curriculum for all
schools?
The possible benefits/advantages of having an official prescribed curriculum for all schools are
to provide educators additional chances to evaluate on their own or with their co-teachers
about how to provide meaningful learning experiences. It could be as simple as creating cross-
curricular collaboration units. It establish a stronger link between learning outcomes across
disciplines or even within a single subject. It serves as a historical document that records not just
how we improve student learning but also which aspects of learning we value the most. The
observation, dialogues, and modifications occur naturally and spontaneously since the
document is constantly adjustable. These initiatives enhance student learning and strengthen
our professional learning communities, resulting in satisfied students and teachers. It aids in
capturing an institution's shared learning goal as well as how a learner progresses through
multiple curriculum areas and educators. It provides educators with concrete materials and
objectives, encourages creativity, and allows for self-reflection. It also increases student
outcomes. Students benefit from a well-organized curriculum that meets high standards.
2. Choose one educational philosophy which you think is most helpful in the experiences of a
learner in school.
One educational philosophy which I think is most helpful in the experiences of a learner in
school is Perennialism. It is a teacher-centered philosophy of education. A teacher teaches
his/her students how to think rationally and develop their minds in critical thinking. Students are
taught to be organized and well-discipline. It highlights the need of comprehending great works
of art, literature, history, and other subjects as timeless pieces of human progress that should be
understood by all to maintain stable, shared cultures. And in perennialism, through to
philosophical inquiry, it sharpened the thinking skills of a learner. It also improves
comprehension of every learner. And last but not the least, it helps learners to think more
clearly. Reading, writing, speaking, and listening are improved in perennialism. It is encouraged
in the primary schools to teach learners for studies in literature, history, and philosophy in later
grades.
