Localization and Contextualization

Article XIV, Section 14 of the 1987 Philippine Constitution which states that :“The State shall foster the preservation, enrichment, and dynamic evolution of a Filipino national culture based on the principle of unity in diversity in a climate of free artistic and intellectual expression” .

LEGAL BASES

Article XIV, Section 5. (1),which states that “The State shall take

into account regional and sectoral needs and conditions and shall encourage local planning in the

development of educational policies and programs.”

Localization and Contextualization

LEGAL BASIS

Sec. 10.2 (d) and (h) – Implementing Rules and Regulations for RA 10533

“The curriculum shall be CONTEXTUALIZED and global;”

“The curriculum shall be flexible enough to enable and allow schools to LOCALIZE, INDIGENIZE, and enhance [the curriculum] based on their respective educational and social contexts.”

Localization and ContextualizationThe curriculum is alive, it changes depending who is implementing it, where and when it is implemented.In order for you to localize and contextualize the curriculum, “you have to think of where you are so that you can make the curriculum relevant to you.” – Usec. Dina Ocampowhen we localize [the curriculum], we agree to itThis means that different areas in the country will also use different materials, they will use different instruments so that they can deliver the standards of the curriculum.

Localization and Contextualization

HOW?

The REACT StrategyCurricula and instruction based on contextual learning strategies should be structured to encourage five essential forms of learning: 

Learning in the context of life experience, or relating, is the kind of contextual learning that typically occurs with very young children. With adult learners, however, providing this meaningful context for learning becomes more difficult. The curriculum that attempts to place learning in the context of life experiences must, first, call the student’s attention to everyday sights, events, and conditions. It must then relate those everyday situations to new information to be absorbed or a problem to be solved. . 

Halimbawa

Experiencing—learning in the context of exploration, discovery, and invention—is the heart of contextual learning. However motivated or tuned-in students may become as a result of other instructional strategies such as video, narrative, or text-based activities, these remain relatively passive forms of learning. And learning appears to "take" far more quickly when students are able to manipulate equipment and materials and to do other forms of active research. 

HALIMBAWA:

Applying concepts and information in a useful context often projects students into an imagined future (a possible career) or into an unfamiliar location (a workplace). This happens most commonly through text, video, labs, and activities, and these contextual learning experiences are often followed up with firsthand experiences such as plant tours, mentoring arrangements, and internships. 

HALIMBAWA:

 Cooperating—learning in the context of sharing, responding, and communicating with other learners—is a primary instructional strategy in contextual teaching. The experience of cooperating not only helps the majority of students learn the material, it also is consistent with the real-world focus of contextual teaching.

HALIMBAWA:

Learning in the context of existing knowledge, or transferring, uses and builds upon what the student has already learned. Such an approach is similar to relating, Students develop confidence in their problem-solving abilities if we make a point of building new learning experiences on what they already know.

HALIMBAWA:

• Localization and contextualization can be done in all subject areas

• Localization maximizes materials that are locally available

• To contextualize, teachers use authentic materials, activities, interests, issues, and needs from learners’ lives

• Should create rooms for students to pose problems and issues and develop strategies together for addressing them

Are You Teaching Contextually?

Take this self-test  

1. Are new concepts presented in real-life situations and experiences that are familiar to the student? 

2. Are concepts in examples and student exercises presented in the context of their use? 

3. Are new concepts presented in the context of what the student already knows? 

4. Do examples and student exercises include many real, believable problem-solving situations that students can recognize as important to their current and possible future lives?  

5. Do examples and student exercises cultivate an attitude that says, "I need to learn this"? 

6. Do students gather and analyze their own data as they are guided in discovery of the important concepts? 

7. Are opportunities presented for students to gather and analyze their own data for enrichment and extension? 

8. Do lessons and activities encourage the student to apply concepts and information in useful contexts, projecting the student into imagined futures (e.g., possible careers) and unfamiliar locations (e.g., workplaces)? 

9. Are students expected to participate regularly in interactive groups where sharing, communicating, and responding to the important concepts and decision-making occur? 

10. Do lessons, exercises, and labs improve students’ written and oral communication skills in addition to mathematical reasoning and achievement?
