Delivering the Curriculum

there is a need to identify what instructional
media are to be utilized in the implementation.
Factors in Technology
Selection
Factors in Technology Selection
1. PRACTICALITY
Is the equipment (hardware) or already
prepared lesson material (software)
available?
If not, what would be the cost in acquiring

the equipment or producing the lesson in
audial or visual form?
2. ACTIVITY/SUITABILITY
Will the chosen media fit the set instructional

event, resulting in either information,
motivation, psychomotor or display?
3. APPROPRIATNESS IN RELATION TO THE
LEARNERS
Is the medium suitable for the learners’ ability

to comprehend? Will the medium be a source
of plain amusement or entertainment, and not
learning?
4. OBJECTIVE-MATCHING
Overall, does the medium help in

achieving the learners’ objective(s)?
Curriculum Delivery
Curriculum Delivery
• Upgrading the quality of teaching-and-
learning in schools
• Increasing the capability of the teacher to

effectively inculcate learning, and for
students to gain mastery of lessons and
courses
Curriculum Delivery
• Broadening the delivery of education outside
schools through non-traditional approaches to
formal and informal learning, such as Open
Universities and lifelong learning to adult
learners
• Revolutionizing the use of technology to
boost educational paradigm shifts that give
importance to students-centered and holistic
learning.
TPACK Framework (Koehler,

TPACK Framework
(Koehler, 2006)
TPACK Framework - Focuses on
technological knowledge (TK),
pedagogical knowledge (PK), and content
knowledge (CK), offers a productive
approach to many of the dilemmas that
teachers face in implementing
educational technology (edtech) in their
classrooms.
TPACK Framework
(Koehler, 2006)
Technological pedagogical knowledge
(TPK) - Describes relationships and
interactions between technological tools and
specific pedagogical practices.
Pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) -

Describes the same between pedagogical
practices and specific learning objectives.
TPACK Framework

Instructional Media
Instructional Media
- It refers as “media technology or learning”.
- It encompasses all the material and physical

means an instructor might use to implement
instruction and facilitate students’ achievement
of instructional objectives. Examples are Audio
and Video Conferencing.

1. PROJECTED MEDIA
2. NON-PROJECTED MEDIA
PROJECTED MEDIA
- These are media formats that is

levels and for instruction in all curriculum
areas.
Examples of Projected Media
• Overhead transparencies
• Opaque projection
• Slides
• Filmstrips
• Films
• Video, VCD, DVD
• Computer/multimedia presentations
Example images of
Projected Media
NON-PROJECTED MEDIA
- It refers to the materials or visuals

that doesn’t require or doesn’t need
the use of equipment or projection
material.
Examples of Non-Projected Media
• Real objects
• Models
• Field trips
• Kits
• Printed materials
• Visuals
• Visual boards
• Audio materials

Non-Projected Media

Current Trends that Could Carry on

1. The first trend is the paradigm shift from the
teacher centered to student-centered approach to

2. The second is the broadening realization that
