needs.
II. Explore/Explain:
Read “The Sabre-Tooth Curriculum by Harold Benjamin (1939).
1. Does the sabre-tooth Curriculum still exist at present? Give examples of your
evidence.
• The Sabre-Tooth Curriculum still exist and taught today. In this curriculum,
collaboration and appropriate knowledge and skills are one of the requirements to do
a task like creating a thesis or a laboratory project that will help them and the
community in the future.
2. Describe the kind of curriculum that exists as described in the article.
• This kind of curriculum conveys the message of " teach them to catch a fish using their
bare hands rather than using a net". This message entails that we, the teacher must
teach our students to do a task using their own cognitive minds and skills and not be
relying on others' ideas.
3. What does the author mean, when he said, “A curriculum should be timeless?”
Explain.
• The author wants to relay in the statement that the schools and curricular must always
use and preserve the curriculum of the past. Because it has always had the purpose
for everything that needs in the society.
4. What is the difference between education and training?
• Training is concerned with developing a particular skill to a desired standard by
instruction and practice ([Link]). While education, according to
Brittanica Dictionary, it is discipline that is concerned with methods of teaching and
learning in schools or school-like environments as opposed to various nonformal and
informal means of socialization (e.g., rural development projects and education
through parent-child relationships).
II. Extend/Elaborate
Content Focus on Foundation of Curriculum: Reflect on the following question:
[Link] which among the foundation of curriculum has influenced what you have
learned in school as a college student?

• Philosophy is the heart of curriculum development. It helps educators in formulating
beliefs, arguments, and assumptions and in making value judgments and this
foundation of curriculum is the one that influenced me of what I’ve learned in my
college journey. I’m a Filipino major and I’m here because of my love for my own
language a Filipino. Also, I've come to realize that the main goal of Filipino curriculum
is to promote and keep our identity and our language. Which I think it is wonderful
journey for me because I already learned the lesson and at the same time, I am
promoting my own language. Furthermore, examine some of Filipino concepts that
underlying the subject is such a knowledgeable experience for me, and every concept
I realized how wonderful our own “Languange” is. So philosophical foundation of
curriculum influenced on what I've learned in school.
2. How will the thinking of Abraham Maslow’s influence your teaching practice in the
future?
• As it is related to Maslow's Hierarchy, Abraham Maslow's thinking can influence my
future teaching practice in a way that motivates me. Student motivation is required for
academic success. So as students our basic human needs must be met at all levels
of Maslow's hierarchy for us to succeed academically. On the other hand, it is this self-
esteem, sense of belonging, safety, and physiological needs that I, as a future teacher,
must address in the classroom in order to improve my students' ability to study and
succeed.
3. Do you agree with Alvin Toffler?
Yes, I agree with Alvin Toffler, and it is important to remember this because, according to
Alvin Toffler, the influence of new technology has had a significant impact on the nature of
society, such as the interactions between people and political and economic organizations.
People's lifestyles are being modified to some extent in order to accept technological
innovation.
