A Simple Reflection on Curriculum Making

I learned that the profile a Ph. D. Graduate should be an Educational Leader, an Educational Leader is a good planner and to become and to become an ideal Administrator should have evidence. He is a consultant and can influence people and the best way is to change 100% of my attitude.

I realized that I should have to want something more, more than the basic. Doctor of Philosophy should be financially stable. And should have to experience the ability to reflect and should have to exert effort to change. The Ph. D. graduate should be innovative and capable to show people how to improve.

I realized that the definition of curriculum has started from the time I decided to enroll until such time that I will finish my studies and earn a degree of Ph.D. Ed Mgt. because curriculum is the total experiences. Every teacher is a curriculum developer.

Reflection Convocation  Summer 2012

To formally start the classes right it was the culture of the Graduate School to hold a convocation program for the purpose of giving all of us an orientation into the whole system.

Last April 28, 2012 at AVR 3and 4, there was a convocation program and I learned the Graduate School policies, standards and guidelines.

Cimene the Dynamic and ever beautiful Dean of the Graduate School. I learned from her that if we lived it should be No excuses and if we are asked to make a Reaction or Reflection it should be in a form like that of a dissertation. Life should be more mature this time. Education is life itself and the epics of higher Education is very good. In the Vision of the Institution, I learned that “You can’t call yourself educated if you are not happy.”: I should be happy all the time no matter what happen , I should  have to pursuit what has been started already. Dean discussed also about the CORE Values. First Competence was the best we can be, we can manage the school competently and excellently, and I must love Research. Learn Research by doing Research. Second, Commitment “I should have to listen to my experiences not only to share knowledge But to create knowledge, it should be according to my book, weigh the experiences and the reality. The graduate Students enrolled were asked to read at least 50 books and make an Action Research in our Class of Dr. Luvismin Aves. I should have to learn, and to learn more, for we were ask to make a research outputs or papers. What I have learned that I should have to learn the Theory through Research. Research creates knowledge. Third, Character involves leadership, governance becomes destiny. Integrity can be learned. How do you think? Research develops character, It involves a lot of hard work, I should have to put my heart in everything I do especially in Research, and research involves tenacity means that I should have patience to change for better ideas and No turning back because it takes a character to finished a degree and once begins it should be finished for a success or victory. Character is not an overnight process. It takes long process. The higher you go you follow the steps. The five steps of character were the, influence, I want to, done something for our school, reproduction to the students and teachers and personhood means to become what we are now, a legacy learned from our mentors and character was the most ingredient part. I like the passion I develop from my Filipino language, I develop the character of being considerate but consistent and firm in my decision in time management .It develop my character through listening to the different ideas. When do one thing, Do your best. Do not waste time, money, effort and energy. When ask to do a term paper it should be published for publication purposes or it should be done in a form of newsletter. I should have to develop my writing skills, it might that there are rise and falls. I should have the tenacity in writing until I will hit the success, most especially in Statistics I found it highly technical but I should have to inculcate that in my mind it was only easy and beautiful for it will develop my character and my attitude as a student of the graduate school, I should have to make it easy and always be humble. It was not a problem to analyzed data, life is fair and it takes a character for me to improve. Fourth, Culture, Capitol University is friendly, from the Presidents, registrar, VPAA  Dr. Luvismin Sy Aves, to her behalf Dr. Salvador Aves, Dr. Olga Alonsabe,all  Professors and most especially to our Dynamic Dean of the graduate School.
