    Conceptualizing Social Studies: A Brief

    History of Social Studies in School Curricula

    TASK 1: THINGS TO PONDER:

    1. What do you think are the reasons for such dismal state of Social Studies education in the Philippines?
    ➢ for me that is why it is difficult for those who study social studies today, because with the passage
    of time people are changing our history. It is difficult to understand why people suddenly change
    our past, but what caused children to learn misinformation about our society, our heroes, and
    where it all began. And most students today say that social studies is a boring subject ... it's hard
    to imagine that in our time our history has become meaningless, also because of the modern
    equipment that students use today in their education ... but there are still some children who are
    valued and still eager to learn social studies. It is not only about our history but also about the
    daily happenings in our society.
    2. How can the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) assist the Department of Education (DepEd) in
    solving the identified challenges?
    ➢ The Commission on Higher Education is the Philippine government’s agency in charged with
    promoting relevant and quality higher education, ensuring access to quality higher education, and
    guaranteeing and protecting academic freedom for continuing intellectual growth, advancement
    of learning and research, development of responsible and effective leadership, education of high
    level professionals, and enrichment of historical and cultural heritages.

    3. Suggest one intervention or program that would address the challenges enumerated above. Explain
    why you have chosen that intervention or program.
    ➢ I suggest Positive Classroom Discipline, because it focuses on discipline rather than punishment. It
    aims to teach children to understand and follow social rules, both within the classroom and
    outside it, without using physical or emotional violence. It emphasizes teaching children to do
    things right rather than punishing them for doing wrong. Teachers need to build a classroom
    environment were positive interactions are the norm a ponutive consequences are minimized.
    Reindicates that coercive or ponutive environments actually promote antisocial behavior.
    TASK 2: Five-Minute Paper

    What was the most useful or the most meaningful thing you learned in this
    learning material? Expound your answer.

    For me, the most useful and meaningful thing that I learned in
    this module is the History of Foundation Theory, because the
    History foundation theory is an extension or deeper
    interpretation of the Big Bang Theory. Here, conventional
    wisdom holds that, since History Education existed since 1916,
    obviously History was seedbed or promulgator of Social
    Studies. It described the historical processes that have
    contributed significantly to global change.
    It demonstrated an understanding of the interplay of the
    fundamental historical forces (political, social, economic,
    cultural, scientific, and/or technological) that have shaped the
    contemporary world, this Foundation Theory it promotes a
    sense of freedom and encourage educational reform through
    history, we learn that programs are considered pioneering due
    to the different philosophies to which others subscribed.
