3. PowerPoint Presentation (3 PPPs @ 10 points each= 30 points)
The study of Foundations of Education relies heavily on the disciplines and methodologies
of the humanities, particularly history and philosophy, and the social sciences, such as
sociology and political science. The purpose of foundations study is to bring these
disciplinary resources to bear in developing interpretive, normative, and critical
perspectives on education, both inside and outside of schools. The general objectives of these
foundational studies are to introduce students to interpretive uses of knowledge germane to
education and to establish a basis for life-long learning through normative and critical
reflection on education within its historical, philosophical, cultural, and social contexts.
The interpretive perspectives use concepts and theories developed within the humanities
and the social sciences to assist students in examining, understanding, and explaining
education within different contexts. Foundational studies promote analysis of the intent,
meaning, and effects of educational institutions, including schools. Such studies attend
particularly to the diverse contexts within which educational phenomena occur, and how
interpretation can vary with different historical, philosophical, and cultural perspectives.
The normative perspectives assist students in examining and explaining education in light
of value orientations. Foundational studies promote understanding of normative and ethical
behavior in educational development and recognition of the inevitable presence of
normative influences in educational thought and practice. Foundational studies probe the
nature of assumptions about education and schooling. They examine the relation of policy
analysis to values and the extent to which educational policymaking reflects values. Finally,
they encourage students to develop their own value positions regarding education on the
basis of critical study and their own reflections.
This syllabus is still a work in progress. This was built from the original syllabus of Dr.
Andrew Eusebio Tan. Changes may come along the way; new topics and resources will be
added as we progress along the course.
Format for out-of-class reflections: One-page minimum, two-page maximum, typed using
the APA format.
Reflections should include (a) a summary of class material covered (readings, discussions,
activities) and (b) discussion of reactions, analyses, and implications of issues addressed.
At least three (5) sessions will be spent for the synchronized participation by the learners in
class discussion (See schedule in the guide). This discussion will be devoted to some issues
or problems and clarifications that need to be verified by the learners. The learners
conceptual understanding will also be tested through this discussion and will serve as their
in-class reflections. Contribution to this discussion will be summarized by the Admin to
determine the credit expected from the learner.
Together with the inputs in the Discussion Board, the SP in CD will be tabulated and rated
that will constitute active participation in discussions.
There are two exams, a midterm and a final. The exam experience is a learning tool that
gives students a better understanding of how learning occurs. This will also serve as a
prelude of the comprehensive examination you will be taking later.
Since comprehensive exams have time limit, mid-term and finals will also be timed. The
same can be taken anywhere and will be also done online. See schedule of these exams in the
guide.
