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.

The REACT Strategy Curricula and instruction based on contextual learning strategies should be structured

The REACT Strategy Curricula and instruction based on contextual learning strategies should be structured to encourage five essential forms of learning: RELATING EXPERIENCING APPLYING COOPERATING TRANSFERRING

RELATING: Learning in the context of life experience, or relating, is the kind of

RELATING: Learning in the context of life experience, or relating, is the kind of contextual learning that typically occurs with very young children. With adult learners, however, providing this meaningful context for learning becomes more difficult. The curriculum that attempts to place learning in the context of life experiences must, first, call the student’s attention to everyday sights, events, and conditions. It must then relate those everyday situations to new information to be absorbed or a problem to be solved. .

EXPERIENCING: Experiencing—learning in the context of exploration, discovery, and invention—is the heart of contextual

EXPERIENCING: Experiencing—learning in the context of exploration, discovery, and invention—is the heart of contextual learning. However motivated or tuned-in students may become as a result of other instructional strategies such as video, narrative, or text-based activities, these remain relatively passive forms of learning. And learning appears to "take" far more quickly when students are able to manipulate equipment and materials and to do other forms of active research.

APPLYING: Applying concepts and information in a useful context often projects students into an

APPLYING: Applying concepts and information in a useful context often projects students into an imagined future (a possible career) or into an unfamiliar location (a workplace). This happens most commonly through text, video, labs, and activities, and these contextual learning experiences are often followed up with firsthand experiences such as plant tours, mentoring arrangements, and internships.

COOPERATING: Cooperating—learning in the context of sharing, responding, and communicating with other learners—is a

COOPERATING: Cooperating—learning in the context of sharing, responding, and communicating with other learners—is a primary instructional strategy in contextual teaching. The experience of cooperating not only helps the majority of students learn the material, it also is consistent with the real-world focus of contextual teaching. Employers espouse that employees who can communicate effectively, who share information freely, and who can work comfortably in a team setting are highly valued in the workplace. We have ample reason, therefore, to encourage students to develop these cooperative skills while they are still in the classroom.

The laboratory, one of the primary instructional methods in contextual courses, is essentially cooperative.

The laboratory, one of the primary instructional methods in contextual courses, is essentially cooperative. Typically, students work with partners to do the laboratory exercises; in some cases, they work in groups of three or four. Completing the lab successfully requires delegation, observation, suggestion, and discussion. In many labs, the quality of the data collected by the team as a whole is dependent on the individual performance of each member of the team. Students also must cooperate to complete small-group activities. Partnering can be a particularly effective strategy for encouraging students to cooperate.

TRANSFERRING : Learning in the context of existing knowledge, or transferring, uses and builds

TRANSFERRING : Learning in the context of existing knowledge, or transferring, uses and builds upon what the student has already learned. Such an approach is similar to relating, in that it calls upon the familiar. Students develop confidence in their problem-solving abilities if we make a point of building new learning experiences on what they already know.
