IPEd Curriculum Framework DepEd Order No. 32, s. 2015 IPED FILES\DO_s2015_32.pdf Recognizing the right of IPs to basic education that is culturally rooted and responsive, it seeks to provide guidance to schools and other education programs, both public and private, as they engage with indigenous communities in localizing, indigenizing, and enhancing the K to 12 curriculum based on their respective educational and social contexts For schools and learning programs serving indigenous learners, the aims of the K to 12 Program are realized through IPEd
Contextualization refers to the educational process of relating the curriculum to a particular setting, situation or area of application to make the competencies relevant, meaningful, and useful to all learners. The degree of contextualization may be described and distinguished into the following: Localization refers to the process of relating learning content specified in the curriculum to local information and materials in the learners’ community. Indigenization refers to the process of enhancing curriculum competencies, education resources, and teaching-learning processes in relation to the bio-geographical, historical, and socio-cultural context of the learners’ community. Indigenization may also involve the enhancement of the curriculum framework, curriculum design, and learning standards of subject areas, guided by the standards and principles adhered to in the national curriculum. IPEd Curriculum Framework DepEd Order No. 32, s. 2015
In the context of IPEd, indigenization specifically refers to the process of interfacing the national formal education curriculum and Alternative Learning System (ALS) curriculum with Indigenous Knowledge Systems and Practices (IKSPs) and Indigenous Learning Systems (ILS). This process includes, but is not limited to, the following: planning for and developing a curriculum based on the directions set by the indigenous community, reflective of the interface between the community's IKSPs and ILS with the national curriculum; highlighting the worldview and perspective of the community in the enhancement of the framework and curriculum design of subject areas and learning strands; recognizing and including the community's context and values in the content and performance standards, and competencies; recognizing and maximizing the IKSPs and its elements (e.g., technologies, practices) as prior knowledge and context which the subject areas, learning strands, competencies, and content of the national curriculum can build upon; enhancing the national curriculum in relation to the community life cycle while recognizing appropriate scope and sequence of competencies; inter-relating the competencies specified in the national curriculum with community competencies in enhancing the curriculum and the teaching-learning process; integrative teaching of subjects towards 21 st century skills so that they relate to IKSPs and its elements (e.g., technologies, practices), and relevant to the learner's culture; recognizing and including the community's teaching-learning approaches and methods, and methods of assessment in the teaching-learning process; recognizing the community as the wider space, environment, and resource for learning; involving culture bearers and/or IKSP holders as co-facilitators in the teaching-learning process; incorporating the community's narratives of local and national history, and contemporary issues and concerns confronted by indigenous peoples; designing the senior high school curriculum to be responsive and suited to the needs, concerns, and aspirations of the community.
