• aims to promote students’ success and knowledge and acquisition of skills
Localization and Contextualization
The 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 Ocampo
when we localize [the curriculum], we agree to it
This means that different areas in the country will use different materials, they will use different instruments so that they can deliver the standards of the curriculum.
LOCALIZATION AND CONTEXTUALIZATION
HOW?
• Localization and contextualization can be done in all subject areas

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

• The localized or contextualized curriculum is based on local needs and relevance for the learners where there is flexibility and creativity in the lessons.
• Tailor-fit the lesson• Build on what they already
have• Accommodate and respect
