Hello, My name is Nanang Adrianto. I'm SEA-Teacher partisipant from UHO (Halu Oleo University). my major is physics education, i'm the only one participant from my major in this project (SEA-TEACHER BATCH 6).
What is SEA-Teacher Project? It's a Pre-Service Student Teacher Exchange
in Southeast Asia). It was program that held by SEAMEO (Southeast Asian
Minister of Education Organization). This project aims are to provide
opportunity for pre-service student teachers from universities in
Southeast Asia to have teaching experiences (practicum) in other
countries in Southeast Asia.
I was chosen to join this project, I am assigned in Roosvelt College Inc (RCI) Philippines . There are 7 representative from my university. Fourth students in Thailand and three of us in Philippines. I never imagine i could be part in thus project and i'm so grateful because it will become my first experience to going abroad and teach in other country. So, this is my story along this project. Hope you enjoy it and can inspired you guys.
Roosevelt College Cainta evolved from then Mayor Wenceslao C. dela Paz’
obsession to let the young people of Marikina go beyond grade school and
learn something more than shoemaking and farming, and established the
Marikina Academy in 1933; to the desire of a group of prominent
Marikeñan citizens and educators headed by Eng’r. Deogracias F. dela Paz
to answer the call of postwar reconstruction and rehabilitation after
World War II thus establishing a corporation in 1945 at Barangay San
Roque to operate as Secondary School, the Roosevelt Memorial High
School, named in honor of the late wartime US President Franklin Delano
Roosevelt; to the transfer of the campus site after the termination of
the lease in San Roque to the 1.5 hectare parcel of land in Sumulong
Highway, Cainta, Rizal in 1974. Initially, this was called Marikina
School. The transfer of the entire RMHS San Roque to this site in 1976
necessitated the change of name to Roosevelt College Cainta.
The steady influx of student population caused for long-term
development. The most significant development in the 80’s focused on
management system and processes and in academic contests and delivery
system. Massive reforms were effected in planning system, organization
set-up, staffing patterns and practices, financial control and unit
level management procedures. A 5-year academic development program was
launched in 1980. The program aimed to improve academic standard of the
school by improving the general internal environment systems, upgraded
qualification of people element, improvement of school facilities and
instructional materials and adoption of more discriminating student
acceptance policy. In 1988, as if to test the effects of the program,
initial steps were taken toward accreditation with the PAASCU, and the
school universal standard which raises the passing score from the usual
50% to 65% and later 70%, was put into effect, with the assumption that
if needed instructional systems have improved then students are ready
for higher level of performance expectations.
As an added measure to make educational offering more relevant the
high school and elementary curricula were made quantitative in the
1990’s. Pupils from Grades 2 to 6 were given Basic Computer Skills
lessons. Computer literacy was integrated in THE 1 and 2 while
Educational computing was offered as a specialized course in THE 3 and
4. Likewise, Computer-Aided-Instructions in English, Science,
Mathematics were introduced. Advanced Computer courses and Internet were
also offered as enrichment subject for high school students while
Trigonometry and Calculus were made part of the Curriculum.
Research was integrated in English and Filipino in the 3rd and 4th year levels and was made a requirement for graduation.
Massive infrastructure and facilities development program was also
undertaken including modernization of Science laboratories, upgrade of
computer laboratories, language laboratory and a gymnasium.
To underscore its commitment to provide quality education, the school
opted to implement the 2002 RBEC during the School Year 2002-2003 to
test its effectiveness. Whatever insights gained from the year long
experiment were inputed in developing a distinctly Roosevelt Basic
Education curriculum. Towards this end, the school sought permission
from DepEd to modify the BEC for School Year 2004-2005 to better reflect
the school’s goals.
In addition to the subjects required in the BEC, Roosevelt College
enriched the curriculum by adding four (4) subjects: Speech and Grammar,
Journalism, Trigonometry and Calculus. SY 2005-2006 saw the addition of
Environmental Science as another additional subject, even as the
Science subjects have integrated investigatory projects in the syllabi.
True to its commitment of providing academic excellence through the
years, and as the entire Roosevelt College System celebrated its Diamond
Jubilee, Roosevelt College continually strengthened its curriculum –
the Roosevelt College Secondary Education Curriculum. It featured
integrated and collaborative teaching approaches which may be linked and
organized thematically, so students can perceive the connections among
subjects or disciplines. It also featured class programs where each
subject is taught in longer blocks of time. Whereas before, Speech and
Grammar, Journalism, Trigonometry and Calculus and Environmental Science
were taken as additional subjects, this time, they have been made as
the focal features of and integrated in their respective umbrella
subjects. The Third Year and Fourth Year Science Curricula have been
restructured in such a way that Chemistry and Physics are taken
simultaneously as separate subjects in the Third Year, and semestrally
taken in the Fourth Year. This has been designed to equip students with
skills and knowledge to get admitted to highly accredited
colleges/universities.
School Years 2008-2009 and 2009-2010 had as the School Theme
“Continuing Commitment to Provide Quality, Relevant and Responsive
Education.” True enough, Roosevelt College is continuously committed to
improve its Basic Education Curriculum. The following were offered as
separate subjects-Edukasyon sa Pagpapahalaga, Elementary Algebra as Math
I and Intermediate Algebra as Math II B. This is to provide each
subject more time for value processing and internalization as well as
more time for analytical and computational skills development,
respectively.
The School believes that it can provide Quality Education if the
curriculum it offers is Dynamic, Evolving, Relevant and Responsive to
the needs of the community and to the changes of time. Hence, for School
Year 2010-2011, a review of the Secondary Education Basic Education
Curriculum has again been made, interchanging the Course Code of
Intermediate Algebra (Math II A) and Geometry (Math II B); both still
offered in the Second Year Level.
In line with the DepEd and FAPE requirements, the SED-BE Curriculum
now features integrated and collaborative teaching approaches under the
Understanding by Design (UbD) framework.
In support with the DepEd’s thrust to strengthen the Basic Education
of the youth, Roosevelt College System in general and Roosevelt College
Cainta in particular now prepares for a drastic shift in the curricular
offerings, giving the youth opportunities to discover their inherent
talents and develop their skills through the implementation of the
foundation years of the K to 12.
