Let’s Check for Understanding


1. In not more than two sentences, state the relationship of society and schools.
a) The school shapes the society through its curriculum and the products, which
are the students. The society also influences the programs and projects being
implemented in the school.
2. What is meant by socialization as a function of schools?
a) Students and teachers interact with one another inside the school. Students
also engage with other students. With this, they share their different ideas
that they can use in their lives.
3. Can school change the socializing effect of family, the primary agent of
socialization? Can an excellent school undo the socializing effect of an extremely
deprived home?
a) Yes. The reason for this is that the school’s purpose is to transfer subject
knowledge and teach life skills. It does not only transmit this knowledge and
skills but also we learn another level for our social skills through the different
interaction such as student to teacher and student to student which is far from
how we socialize at home.
b) Yes, with the help of the school system and its curriculum, those who are
deprived home can actually change the perspective of it’s learner.
4. In the Philippines, was education a privilege enjoyed by all Filipinos since the pre-
colonial period? Why or why not?
a) No, because education during these period is informal, thus teaching and
learning process are unstructured and decentralized. Educational system may
have developed well during the era of Spanish colonization but their were
separation, discrimination as well as unfair privileges.
5. Was the National College Entrance Examination (NCEE) in support of equal access
to quality education? Why was it abolished when it did exactly what Filipinos then
wanted?
a) The NCEE is not in support of equal access since it is only limited to those
who are able to pass their examination.
b) The NCEE was abolished because Education secretary Raul Roco wanted all
high school students to be able to enter college and have a chance of a better
future career.
Let’s Reflect
1. Should college education be for all? Or should it be given only to those who are
intellectually capable of college education? Those who are not should be directed to
technical education. Isn’t giving access to college education for one who is not
intellectually capable a waste of time and resources? Was that not the very purpose of
the National College Entrance Examination then - to redirect to techvoc courses those
who were not capable of a college course?
a) Of course college is for all, everyone has a right to education thus college
education is not only for those who are intellectually capable. Everyone
should have an equal opportunity to receive education since we cannot
possibly foresee what capabilities each learner have unless exposed to the
college education.
2. Should we bring back the NCEE? Why or why nor?
a) No. We should not bring back NCEE since a lot of tertiary education schools
have their own entrance exam which also measure students skills and help
evaluate the readiness of student to college-level education.
3. Of the development in the Philippine Education in the post-colonial period, which
to you is the most important?
a) For me, the most important development of the post-colonial period is the
nationalization of elementary education and the abolishment of matriculation.
This gave children all over the country to have nationalized primary
education which became one of the starting points of the future
developments.
