COMMUNICATION SKILLS: ENGLISH
(BL to JHS)
May 2019
Alternative Learning System K to 12 Basic Education Curriculum (ALS K to 12 BEC)
The main thrust of Learning Strand (LS) 1, English is Communication Skills which seeks to develop the ability of out-of-school youth and adults to
access, critically process, and effectively use available information in a variety of media so as to:
function effectively as a member of the family, community, nation, and the world; and
participate actively in community and economic development.
Learning Strand 1 involves the five macro skills namely, listening purposively and critically; speaking clearly and appropriately; viewing to
demonstrate critical understanding and interpretation of visual media; reading to process and critically use information from a wide range of written materials
and other forms of media, and express one’s ideas and feelings clearly and effectively in writing.
The content and performance standards, and competencies and skills in this Learning Strand are sequenced from the simplest to the most complex.
This is intended to provide the learners opportunities to experience success in developing their ability to access, critically process, and effectively make use of
available information in a variety of media and express their ideas and feelings clearly and effectively in both oral and written forms. The gradual increase in
scope and difficulty will help the learners develop self-confidence in using their communication skills at every level.
When a certain competency is spiraled or assigned to more than one level in any of the five macro skills of English language learning, progression in
difficulty may be achieved through the choice of learning materials for developing it. Considerations will be in terms of:
type of material
length of the material
choice of words and language structure
concept load
The Basic Literacy Level (BL) competencies is a separate section in the Enhanced ALS Curriculum focused only on Basic Level competencies
on Communication Skills (listening, speaking, viewing, reading, and writing) and numeracy.
This section for Basic Literacy competencies is not a stand-alone, since specific concepts/topics from other Learning Strands will be used as contents
for the development of Basic Literacy skills.
Performance Standard A, which focuses on the listening component of language learning is presented below:
Elementary Level : Show an understanding of most conversations in the language being acquired (understanding conversations
(Lower) containing some familiar and unfamiliar vocabulary)
Elementary Level : Show an understanding of most conversations in the language being acquired (understanding conversations to
(Advanced) recount details)
Junior High School : Show an understanding of most conversations in the language being acquired (understanding most
Level conversations containing unfamiliar vocabulary but not necessarily all the details / Understanding conversations to
recount accurately specific details)
In this example, the learner is expected to show an understanding of conversations of gradually increasing difficulty. He/she starts with
understanding conversations with phrases containing familiar vocabulary, progresses to understanding conversations containing some familiar and unfamiliar
vocabulary, and later to a more complex understanding of most conversations containing unfamiliar vocabulary and accurately specific details in the language
being acquired.
Progression in difficulty is also demonstrated below in Performance Standard B, which focuses on the speaking component of language learning.
Elementary : Ask questions and correctly answer questions using W-H markers in responding to current issues and everyday
Level inquiries
(Lower)
Elementary Level : Ask questions and correctly answer questions related to current issues presented in the classroom and community
(Advanced) assemblies
Junior High School : Ask questions and correctly answer questions related to current issues presented in TV and radio programs,
Level the internet, newspapers, magazines, books, billboard, video games, music, all other forms of media and
encouraging audience participation
In this example, the degree of difficulty in the skill of questioning increases as the complexity and (or) range of information to be gathered or inquired
about increases.
Elementary Level : Make connections between information viewed and personal experiences
(Lower)
Elementary Level : Determine images/ideas that are explicitly used to influence viewers (stereotypes) and interpret properly simple and
(Advanced) common written messages, signs, symbols, words, and phrases related to immediate needs or which are
commonly used at work or which are found in the community
Junior High School : Deduce the purpose and value of visual media to immediate needs or work
Level : Demonstrate a critical understanding and interpretation of visual media such as movie clips, trailer, news flash,
internet-based program, videos, documentaries, etc.
In this example, viewing skill supports literacy in language and serves as gateway to exploring complex ideas and open learner’s eyes to other ways of
looking at the world. Through it, multimedia resources can be used appropriately, efficiently, and effectively.
Elementary Level : Interpret simple written sentences, e.g., sentences with contents related to:
(Lower) immediate needs
specific activities in the community or workplace
Elementary Level : Interpret complex written sentences, e.g., sentences whose contents are related to:
(Advanced) immediate needs
specific activities in the community or workplace
current goals
urgent matters
Junior High School : Interpret the parts of important documents and forms when necessary, e.g., bio-data, application form, tax-related
Level documents, etc.
Interpret themes and messages that are not clearly and explicitly stated in the passage, text or selection
In this particular example, the sequencing is achieved by gradually increasing the difficulty of the material or concept load from one level to another, specifically
from simple common written messages, signs, symbols, words, and phrases to simple written sentences, to the interpretation of the parts of important documents
and forms, and finally to the interpretation of messages that are subtly expressed in passages, texts, or selections.
Elementary Level : Write simple, compound, and complex sentences on different activities, issues or occasions
(Lower)
Elementary Level : Write simple paragraphs on different activities, issues, or occasions
(Advanced)
Junior High School : Write well-organized, coherent, and grammatically correct paragraphs that talk about oneself, country, and the
Level world
Write a composition with correctly sequenced paragraphs using appropriate paragraph/sentence structure and
correct grammar, punctuation, capitalization, and spelling to talk about oneself, country, and the world
In this example, complexity in skills increases from writing simple sentences to introduce oneself, to writing simple, compound, and complex sentences, to
writing descriptive, narrative, expository, and persuasive paragraphs. This progression from easy to more difficult learning tasks will help the learner to
experience success in developing communication skills. Transition transference flow progression process.
There are objectives, competencies, and skills that are gradually developed throughout the whole teaching-learning process in the three levels—
Basic, Elementary, and Junior High School in the Alternative Learning System (ALS)
Increase in difficulty in terms of the medium or stimulus, will provide opportunities for the learners to widen the experience that would redound to the
gradual development and attainment of the objectives, competencies, and skills as they progress through the three learning levels.
The curriculum users should consider the age level, experience, cultural context, and social milieu of the target learners. This is crucial to the process of
developing or selecting learning materials, or in planning activities for the conduct of regular or special learning group sessions that would help attain the objectives.
Take, for instance, Performance Standard A, of Learning Strand 1 as illustrated below.
Elementary Level : Listen in order to recount accurately specific details of informative oral messages in conversations
(Lower)
Elementary Level : Listen in order to recount some specific details of informative oral messages in formal and informal discussion
(Advanced)
Junior High School : Listen in order to recount accurately specific details of informative oral messages in religious leaders’
Level sermons/homilies/preaching/ radio/TV programs/speeches/advertisements
At the basic level, a stimulus such as a simple informal conversation, which usually takes place at home between and among family members, may require
not much concentration. It then progresses to a newscast—a more sophisticated medium, which requires greater concentration and focus at the elementary level.
Finally, at the Junior High School level, the learners are taken to a larger environmental context, which increases their responsibility to fully concentrate and
make use of more senses, and challenges their ability to critically analyze what has been seen, heard and observed, and viewed.
Performance Standard A: Listen attentively and critically in at least two languages to be able to function effectively as a member of the family, the
community, the nation and the world and to participate in community and economic development
Performance Standard A: Listen attentively and critically in English to be able to function effectively as a member of the family, the community, the
nation, and the world and to participate in community and economic development

Alternative Learning System K to 12 Basic Education Curriculum (ALS K to 12 BEC)
Ang pangunahing layunin ng Pokus ng Pagkatuto (PP1): Kasanayan sa Komunikasyong Filipino ay mapaunlad ang kakayahan ng mga mag-aaral ng Alternative
Learning System (ALS) sa pakikipagtalastasan partikular sa kritikal na pagsusuri, pag-abot at epektibong paggamit ng mga impormasyon mula sa iba’t ibang uri ng midya
upang:
Epektibong magampanan ang tungkulin bilang miyembro ng pamilya, komunidad, bansa at daigdig; at
Aktibong makalahok sa pagpapaunlad ng komunidad at ekonomiya.
Saklaw rin nito ang limang makrong kasanayan: kritikal at malayuning pakikinig; wasto, angkop at malinaw na pagsasalita; kritikal at analitikal na panonood sa
mga obrang biswal na pangmidya; mapanuri at masusing pagbabasa ng impormasyon mula sa mga limbag na kagamitan ng iba’t ibang anyo ng midya at malinaw at
epektibong pagsulat ng naiisip at nararamdaman.
Ipinapakita sa ibaba ang balangkas ng Pokus ng Pagkatuto (PP1): Kasanayan sa Komunikasyong Filipino.
Ang Unang Pamantayang Pagganap (A) ay nakatuon sa pakikinig bilang bahagi ng pagkatuto ng wika; kasama rin dito ang mga kasanayan:
Kasanayan : Naipapakita ang pag-unawa sa pakikipagtalastasan batay sa natutuhang wika (nauunawaan ang usapang naglalaman ng mga
pariralang kinapalolooban ng pamilyar na mga salita)
Antas Junior High School : Naipakikita ang pag-unawa sa pakikipagtalastasan batay sa natutuhang wika
: (nauunawaan ang lahat ng usapan na nagtataglay ng hindi pamilyar na mga salita ngunit hindi lahat ng mga detalye)
Sa halimbawa sa itaas, ipinapakita na ang isang mag-aaral ay inaasahang maipakikita ang pag-unawa sa pakikipag-usap mula sa pagiging payak hanggang sa
pagiging pinakakomplikado nito. Nag-uumpisang unawain ng mga mag-aaral ang mga usapang nagtataglay ng pamilyar na mga salita at umuunlad ito sa pamamagitan ng
pang-unawa sa mga usapang nagtataglay ng pamilyar at di pamilyar na salita, at sa kinalaunan ay maunawaang ang lahat ng usapan na nagtataglay ng di pamilyar na salita
at pag-alala ng tumpak at tiyak na mga detalye hinggil sa wika.
Ang mga pakomplikadong mga kasanayan ay ipinapakita sa ibaba sa Ikalawang Pamantayan sa Pagganap ay nakatuon sa pagsasalita (B), bilang bahagi ng
pagkatuto ng wika; kasama rin dito ang mga Kakayahan:
Kakayahan : Nakapagbibigay ng mga tanong kaugnay sa pang - araw - araw na pangangailangan (hal. paghahanap ng lokasyon ng lugar at
tao)
Antas Elementarya : Nakapagbibigay ng tanong kaugnay ng napapanahong isyu batay sa inilahad sa loob ng klase
(mababang antas)
Antas Junior High School : Nakapagbibigay ng tanong kaugnay ng napapanahong isyung inilahad sa programa sa radyo at telebisyon
Sa halimbawang ito, ang antas ng pagiging komplikado ng kasanayan sa pagtatanong ay tumataas habang ang mga pinanggagalingan ng impormasyon ay
nadadagdagan.
Para sa Ikatlong Pamantayang Pagganap (C) na nakatuon sa panonood, ang mga halimbawa ay ang mga sumusunod:
Batayang Antas : Natutukoy ang mga elementong biswal sa inilimbag at hindi inililimbag na mga sulatin
Antas Elementarya : Nakagagawa ng koneksiyon/ugnayan sa pagitan ng mga impormasyong napanood at sa mga personal na
(mababang antas) karanasan
Antas Elementarya : Natutukoy ang mga imahe at mga ideya na lantarang ginamit upang maimpluwensiyahan ang mga manonood
(mataas na antas) (yaong mga karaniwan) at makapagbigay nang tamang interpretasyon sa mga payak at pangkaraniwang isinulat na mensahe,
palatandaan, simbolo, salita, at mga parirala
Antas Junior High School : Nahuhulo (deduce) ang layunin at halaga ng mga biswal na midya sa dagliang pangangailangan o trabaho
Sa halimbawang ito, sinusuportahan ng kasanayan sa panonood ang literasi sa wika, at nagsisilbing pintuan sa pagsisiyasat ng mga masasalimuot na ideya at
nagmumulat sa mga mag-aaral sa iba pang mga paraan ng pagtingin sa mundo. Sa pamamagitan nito, ang mga yaman mula sa iba’t ibang uri ng midya ay maaaring
magamit nang mabisa at epektibo.
Para sa Ikaapat na Pamantayan sa Pagganap (D) na nakatuon sa pagbasa, makikita rin ang paglipat ng antas ng kasanayan mula sa payak hanggang sa
komplikado:
Kakayahan : Nabibigyang interpretasyon ang mga payak na pasulat na mensahe, simbolo, senyales, salita, at parirala kaugnay ng kagyat na
pangangailan na ginagamit sa komunidad
Antas Elementarya : Nabibigyang interpretasyon ang mga payak na pangungusap kaugnay ng kagyat na pangangailangan na ginagamit sa
(mababang antas) komunidad o sa lugar pagawaan
Antas Elementarya : Nabibigyang interpretasyon ang mga komplikadong pangungusap kaugnay ng kagyat na pangangailangan, gawain sa
(mataas na antas) komunidad o sa lugar pagawaan, at target na layunin
Antas Junior High School : Nabibigyang interpretasyon ang mga bahagi ng mahahalagang dokumento at anyo nito katulad ng bio - data, pormularyo sa
paghahanap ng trabaho, a t mga dokumentong may kaugnayan sa buwis
Sa tiyak na halimbawang ito, ang pagkakasunod-sunod ng antas ng kasanayan ay nakakamit sa pamamagitan nang dahan-dahang pagdaragdag ng hirap o
kasalimuotan sa mga aklat o konsepto, mula sa isang antas papunta sa isa pa. Halimbawa nito ay ang pagsulat ng mga mensahe, simbolo, hudyat, salita at parirala
hanggang sa pagsulat ng mga payak na pangungusap, patungo sa mga bahagi ng mga mahahalagang dokumento at iba pang mga anyo ng sulatin. Ang pinakahuli ay ang
iba’t ibang interpretasyon ng mga mensahe na hindi ganap na naihahayag sa mga sipi at teksto.
Para sa Ikalimang Pamantayan sa Pagganap (E) na nakatuon sa pagsusulat sa ilalim ng Kakayahan, ang mga halimbawa ay ang mga sumusunod:
Antas Elementarya : Nakasusulat ng mga payak, tambalan, at mga langkapang pangungusap tungkol sa mgagawain, mga isyu, at iba
(mababang antas) pang mga okasyon
Antas Elementarya : Nakasusulat ng mga payak na talatasa mga aktibidad, mga isyu, at mga okasyon
(mataas na antas)
Antas Junior High School : Nakasusulat ng organisado at magkakatugmang talata na tumatalakay sa sarili, sa bansa, at sa mundo
Sa halimbawang ito, ang kasalimuotan sa kasanayan ay tumataas mula sa pagsusulat ng mga payak na pangungusap upang maipakilala ang sarili, hanggang sa mga
payak, tambalan, at mga langkapang pangungusap, patungo sa pagsusulat ng mga naglalarawan, nagsasalaysay, naglalahad, at nangungumbinsing mga talataan. Ang
paggalaw mula sa madali patungo sa mas mahihirap na gawain ay makatutulong sa mga mag-aaral na makaranas ng tagumpay sa paghubog ng kanilang mga kasanayang
komunikatibo.
May mga layunin, mga kakayahan, at mga kasanayan na unti-unting nahuhubog sa kabuuang proseso ng pagtuturo at pagkatuto sa tatlong antas— batayang antas,
elementarya, at sekondarya sa Alternatibong Sistema ng Pagkatuto (ALS).
Ang pagtaas ng kasalimuotan sa paliwanag ng midyum o stimulus (halimbawa, ang unang pakikinig ay maaaring hindi pormal na harapang pag-uusap, na kinalaunan
ay tutungo sa mga payak na anunsiyo at sa huli ay patungo na sa mga programa sa radio at telebisyon) ay makapagbibigay ng mga oportunidad sa mga tukoy na mag-aaral
para sa pagpapalawak ng kanilang mga karanasan na sasaklaw sa unti-unting pagkamit ng mga layunin at pagkahubog ng mga kakayahanatkasanayan habang tinatahak
nila ang tatlong bahagdan ng pagkatuto.
Bilang pagsasa-alang-alang sa estratehiya sa itaas, kailangan ding isa-alang-alang ng mga gumagamit ng kurikulum ang edad, karanasan, konteksto ng kultura, at
ang panlipunang kundisyon ng mga tinukoy na mag-aaral. Ang mga salik na ito ay binibigyan ng sapat na atensiyon habang nasa proseso pa ng pagbuo o/at pamimili ng
mga kagamitan sa pagkatuto/o mga sulatin o di kaya’y sa mga aktibidad ng pagpa-plano para sa pagsasagawa ng mga regular o espesyal na grupo ng mga mag-aaral, o iba
pang mga aktibidad na makatutulong sa pagkamit ng mga layunin sa isang natural na proseso. Halimbawa ay ang mga sumusunod:
Batayang Antas : Nailalahad na muli ang ilang mga detalye ng impormatibong mensahe sa napakinggang pag-uusap
Antas Elementarya : Nailalahad na muli nang wasto ang ilang mga detalye ng impormatibong mensahe sa napakinggang pag-uusap
(mababang antas)
Antas Elementarya : Nailalahad na muli nang wasto ang ilang mga detalye ng impormatibong mensahe sa napakinggang pormal at hindi
(mataas na antas) pormal na talakayan
Antas Junior High School : Nailalahad na muli nang wasto ang mga detalye ng impormatibong mensahe sa napakinggang pormal at hindi pormal na mga
talakayan
Sa batayang antas, isang istimulus kagaya ng isang payak na impormal na pag-uusap, na karaniwang nangyayari sa tahanan at sa pagitan ng mga miyembro ng
pamilya, ay maaaring hindi mangailangan ng labis na atensiyon. Ito ngayo’y yayabong sa pagbabalita – isang mas sopistikadong midyum na nangangailangan ng mas
malalim na konsentrasyon at nakatuon sa mga mag-aaral sa elementarya. Pinakahuli, sa bahagdan ng sekondarya, ang mga mag-aaral ay nailulugar sa isang mas malawak
na konteksto na nagpapayaman ng kanilang kakayahan o kritikal na abilidad upang masuri ang kanilang mga nakita, narinig, na-obserbahan, at napanood.

SCIENTIFIC AND CRITICAL THINKING SKILLS
(BL to JHS)
May 2019
Alternative Learning System K to 12 Basic Education Curriculum (ALS K to 12 BEC)
The ultimate goal of this learning strand is for the learners to attain scientific and apply critical thinking skills in daily life situations to improve their lives,
as well as the quality of life of the people, the community and the country as a whole.
Consistent to the framework of the K to 12 science curriculum that is spiral progression, the spiraling of learning competencies is highlighted in this
learning strand. These competencies are spiraled in all levels: basic, elementary, and junior high school. Science concepts and skills learned by the learners in the
basic level will be encountered again in elementary and junior high school levels. In this way, mastery of the learning competencies are achievable.
The learning competencies appears repetitive, but they are sequenced progressively such that foundational science competencies are tackled first before
learners are led to higher level competencies. Particularly, the learning competencies are arranged in a logical and sequential order: from simple to complex,
concrete to abstract, familiar to unfamiliar, specific to general and narrow to broad.
Example 1
Performance Standard B: Relate how science and technology affect people’s beliefs, practices and ways of thinking.
Learning Competencies:
Elementary Level 19.2 Name some plants found in the home and in the community
Junior High School Level 19.3 Describe the plants found at home and in the community
The learning competencies for the two levels in Example 1 follow a sequential development of skills such that in the elementary level, the process skill of
identification is targeted as the learners will name some plants. And in the secondary level, learners will gain the complex skill in describing the plant which
denotes the skills necessary in plant anatomy and morphology. This hierarchical arrangement of skills will help the learners apply scientific thinking in daily life
situations in a fashion that is facilitative and contextual.
Example 2
Performance Standard B: Relate how science and technology affect people’s beliefs, practices and ways of thinking.

Elementary Level 19.16 Classify these animals according to their structure, food, habitat, and manner of
reproduction
Junior High School Level 19.17 Differentiate between vertebrates and invertebrates (learners will be made to
differentiate animals with backbone and without backbone found in the home and in the community)
The learning competencies in Example 2 are in spiral progression. In the elementary level, learners will classify the animals in their specific conditions.
While in the junior high school level, learners will do the process skill of differentiating animals which is an initial skill needed to animal anatomy. This hierarchy of
skills accords to the spiral progression of the learning competencies as the literacy level of the learners increases.
There are six content and performance standards in this learning strand that are arranged progressively as well:
These performance standards are corollary to the basic science concepts and areas learned in formal schools, such as the scientific values and attitudes,
superstitions and scientific inquiry, scientific method, biological science, disaster risk reduction and readiness management, and physical science.
The ultimate goal of Learning Strand 2 is to develop individuals who are aware of their own thinking, able to make critical and informed decisions, defend
their ideas and evaluate the ideas of others, and are persistent in striving for new ways to solve problems. Through the development of scientific literacy and
critical thinking skills, ALS learners will enhance their own personal and social effectiveness by way of improving the quality of life.
Specifically, embedded in the performance standards are the functional competencies of openness to change; awareness of options; ability to make
critical and informed decisions; curiosity, innovativeness and creativity; and future orientation with the abilities to:
All of these will lead the ALS learners to understand and apply scientific knowledge (cognitive), develop and demonstrate scientific values and attitude
(affective), and demonstrate scientific inquiry skills (behavioral). Thus, it achieves holistic development of science skills among the learners as they attend the
learning interventions.

Learning Strand 3
MATHEMATICAL AND PROBLEM SOLVING SKILLS
(BL to JHS)
May 2019
Learning Strand 3 is intended to help the learners acquire mathematical and problem solving skills that are essential in their meaningful participation
in improving the quality of life of the people, community and the country as a whole.
Development of mathematical and problem solving skills among learners will enable them to apply the gained knowledge on mathematical tools i n
defining problems and implementing effective solutions. These skills are very essential in decision making and are highly valued in every career level.
This learning strand is also intended to develop critical functional competencies on critical thinking, communicating, making connection, spatial
intelligence, logical reasoning and future orientation. These competencies specifically seek to extend the learners’ abilities in:
Through the development of learners’ mathematical and problem solving skills, ALS learners will enhance their own personal and social effectiveness
by way of improving the quality of life.
NUMERACY SKILLS
The numeracy component of Learning Strand 3 focuses on competencies needed for effective mathematical learning and problem solving. Its
emphasis is on how these mathematical competencies would be applied to daily life situations. To this end, real-life examples are given for many of the
competencies. During curriculum implementation, further emphasis will be necessary on contextualization of the mathematical competencies to align with different
learning contexts, needs, and situational realities of different ALS learners.
The competencies are logically sequenced from simple to complex based on the level of cognitive demand and nature of the Mathematics subject area. For
example, before being able to do division of fractions, its prerequisite is that one must first understand multiplication of fractions. The ALS Mathematics
curriculum contains the following performance standards:
PERFORMANCE STANDARD A: show desirable attitudes and values in the application of mathematics in daily life.
PERFORMANCE STANDARD B: communicate ideas using mathematical symbols and expression
PERFORMANCE STANDARD C: demonstrate knowledge and skills involving geometric shapes and figures and its application in daily lives.
PERFORMANCE STANDARD D: demonstrate knowledge and skills in using measuring devices in real life situation.
PERFORMANCE STANDARD E: demonstrate knowledge and skills in pattern and algebra (linear equations and inequalities in one and two variables,
linear functions, system in linear equations, and inequalities in two variables; exponents and radical, quadratic equations; inequalities; functions;
and polynomials and polynomials equations and functions).
PERFORMANCE STANDARD F: demonstrate understanding and skills in the effective use of tables, graphs and statistics in presenting, analyzing and
interpreting data, and dealing with uncertainty; and making predictions about outcomes for everyday problem solving.
It is envisioned that the attainment of these performance standards will equip ALS learners with the necessary minimum foundational mathematics
competencies to prepare them for the world of work and further study under the Senior High School Program.
College-bound ALS learners in SHS must also complete the core subjects General Mathematics and Statistics and Probability (or their equivalents). They
must also complete all the specialization subjects in any of the Academic Strands (Accountancy, Business and Management [ABM], Humanities and Social
Sciences [HUMSS], Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics [STEM], or General Academic).
If an ALS learner who has completed the K to 12 curriculum wishes to proceed to higher education, this learner may return to the ALS program and take the core
curriculum at any time.

LIFE AND CAREER SKILLS
(BL to JHS)
May 2019
This Learning Strand addresses the improvement of the economic status of Filipinos, (and the reduction of poverty) particularly among ALS learners. It
focuses on the attitudes, skills, and knowledge (competencies) necessary for earning a living and promoting a sustainable lifestyle.
This Learning Strand covers ability to earn a living through employment/self-employment or entrepreneurship; sustainable consumption (reduction of
wasteful expenditure and wise consumption/utilization of resources); conserving resources for future generations; and productivity and using work-related
skills, knowledge, values and technology to maximize one’s efficiency and performance as a productive citizen.
In addition to demonstrating mastery of skills completed under LS 4, all ALS learners, at the end of their JHS program shall complete at least one (1)
TVL track specialization leading to the acquisition of occupational skills and a National Certificate (NC). Refer to the K to 12 Curriculum Guide (CG) of the
Technical-Vocational Livelihood (TVL) track on the different areas of specializations. The purpose of the TVL track specialization is to ensure ALS learners
graduate with practical skills to ensure their immediate employability and livelihood options.
The skills needs may vary from learner to learner. Some may already have the skills and competencies, background knowledge or experience while
others may not. Hence, the acquisition of such skills follows the sequencing and spiraling of competencies, with the easiest skills to be acquired at the
beginning stage as “pre-requisite tools.” It will also allow the learner to gradually move from simple to more difficult skills and competencies.
In this strand, spiraling of competencies takes into account the interest, learning needs, experience, aspirations, resources and creativity of the learner at
each level. Therefore, there is a need for the Facilitator and Instructional Manager to assist the learners at each level and at the same time provide
challenging experiences of success in improving the chances of his/her own productivity.
Performance Standard B : Apply working knowledge, skills and positive attitudes as a self- employed individual/entrepreneur to engage in a
business activity involving marketable goods and services to earn a living and improve one’s economic status.
Elementary Level (Advanced) : Assess one’s personal strengths/attributes/assets/limitation/interests as a potential entrepreneur : Generate new
business ideas
Junior High School : Analyze potential business ideas to identify possible viable/feasible business options as a self-employed
entrepreneur using a set of criteria. Develop and nurture personal entrepreneurial competencies
In example 1, the competency is distributed across the two levels with varying degrees of difficulty. In the Elementary Level (Advanced), learners are
introduced to assessing one’s personal strengths/attributes/assets/limitation/interests as a potential entrepreneur and learners will generate new business
ideas. As the learning progresses, it is expected that the learners acquire more concepts, knowledge and skills on self-employment/entrepreneurship. In the
Junior High School level, as the learners master the competency, they can already analyze potential business ideas to identify possible viable/feasible business
options as a self-employed entrepreneur using a set of criteria and develop and nurture individual entrepreneurial competencies .

UNDERSTANDING THE SELF AND SOCIETY
(BL to JHS)
May 2019
This Learning Strand 5―Understanding the Self and Society is intended to help ALS learners acquire a positive sense of self and social responsibility that
will lead them to the development of their potentials and enable them to live together harmoniously in the contexts of their family, local community, and country,
as well as be able to participate as a member of the Southeast Asian region and an increasingly global community.
This means helping learners develop the capacity to think with complexity taking into account multiple cultural perspectives (Chickering & Reisser, 1993).
In an increasingly globalized world, it is important that out-of-school youth and adult learners are able to see things through the hearts, minds, and eyes of others,
and understand the impact of regional and global issues on their lives and the lives of the members of their family, community, and country. The Learning Strand
endeavors to encourage learners to continue developing knowledge, attitudes, values, and skills in order to act locally in building a just, peaceful, equitable,
compassionate, multicultural, and pluralistic society. Hence, it is important to inculcate in learners that what they do affects their sphere of influence (family and
community) and creates an impact on the nation, the region, and the world. According to Colby and Sullivan (2009), persons with a civic and moral identity and
sense of obligation to society are more likely to behave in ways that fulfill individual and social responsible goals. Thus, as members of the Association of Southeast
Asian Nations (ASEAN) and world communities, learners’ horizons for developing identity need to be national, regional, and global.
The underlying premise of the Learning Strand is presented below in a spiraling framework that indicates the constant flow of the self-development process, which
starts from the self and expands beyond intrapersonal space to the family, community, country, ASEAN region, and the world at large. The flow indicates that to
effect social and national transformation and participate as a regional and global citizen, the change process necessarily starts from personal changes that would
make the individual live and work effectively as a human person.
The Schematic Diagram projects a lifelong learner who is equipped with the following:
21st Century Skills
Highly developed intrapersonal skills (Positive sense of self and development of one’s potential)
High interpersonal skills (Solidarity and ’’Pakikipagkapwa ’’)
Able to participate actively in community involvement
A commitment to care and protect the environment
Knowledge of local governance and how to participate as a citizen
Deep sense of nationalism and national identity
Knowledge and practice of civil and political rights, and corresponding responsibilities
Skills in resolving and managing conflict peacefully
Awareness of the opportunities and challenges amidst increasing ASEAN regional integration, and their impact on one’s personal self-development
Development of a sense of global awareness, appreciation of diversity, and solidarity
In the implementation of the curriculum and preparation/selection of learning materials for Alternative Learning System (ALS) learners, it is
important that the sequencing and spiraling of the Learning Strand 5 competencies are considered in order to achieve greater learning efficiency. The
competencies are arranged following a logical sequence from easy to difficult, simple to complex, specific to general, narrow to broad, thus generally
increasing in scope and difficulty as demonstrated in the examples below:
3.1.1 State one’s goal in life clearly and when they intend to
achieve these with tangible and intangible success criteria
21st-century Skills 3.1.2 Balance tactical (short-term) and strategic (long-term) goals
5.1 Self-regulation
5.1.1 Ability to tolerate unmet wants or needs, handle
disappointments and failures, and work toward success
High intra and interpersonal skills 5.1.2 Ability to resist addictive behaviors and manage ones
response and protect against abuse by others, i.e., cyber bullying

national problems, e.g.:
Clean and green campaigns

Cleaning of esteros, rivers, lakes, and seas
Maintenance of peace and order in the community

DIGITAL CITIZENSHIP
(BL to JHS)
May 2019
Twenty-first-century Philippine society is replete with myriad rapidly changing information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ways people
plan, develop, implement, and communicate ideas and knowledge have been transformed as computers, the internet, social media, and mobile devices have
become increasingly pervasive. To adapt to these changes, Filipinos need to develop a whole new range of ICT-related skills to be effective citizens in an
increasingly digital world. This Learning Strand addresses the needs of ALS learners to develop basic skills in ICT use and digital literacy. Accordingly, a new
Learning Strand has been added to the ALS Curriculum focused on “Digital Citizenship” for 21st-century Filipino citizens. This Learning Strand seeks to help
equip ALS learners with critical knowledge, skills, and values to be able to live and work effectively as part of the digital universe.
Digital Citizen is someone who develops the skills and knowledge to effectively use the internet and other digital technology, especially in order to
participate responsibly in social and civic activities. (Collins Dictionary).
Digital Citizenship is the continuously developing norms of appropriate, responsible and empowered technology use. (Ribble & Park. The Digitall
Citizenship Handbook for School Leaders, 2019).
Digital Literacy is the ability to define, access, manage, integrate, communicate, evaluate and create information safely and appropriately through
digital technologies and networked devices for participation in economic and social life. (Digital Literacy and Beyond, UNESCO 2018).
Below is the schematic diagram for this new Learning Strand.
The schematic diagram shows that the overall goal of this Learning Strand is to produce 21st-century digital citizens who are confident in using ICT
and digital tools in a responsible and ethical manner. Digital Citizenship is needed to achieve this goal. Digital Citizenship is the capacity of every ALS learner
to safely and responsibly generate, apply, and share digital information in multiple formats from a wide range of sources using computers or mobile devices.
To achieve digital citizenship, ALS learners need both ICT-related knowledge and skills, and the ability to integrate such skills and knowledge across
the competencies listed in the other five Learning Strands of the ALS curriculum. This is the application part where the learners utilize their digital knowledge
and skills as tools to communicate with others and solve problems in daily life. Each of the other five Learning Strands will thus go hand in hand with Learning
Strand 6.
This Learning Strand covers the following digital citizenship competencies:
The learning competencies and skills in this Learning Strand are sequenced from the simplest to the most complex and based on the content standards. Leveling
of the learning competencies will start at Lower Elementary up to Advanced Junior High School
Here is a sample of digital citizenship Integration across the competencies of other Learning Strands
Example 1: LS 1 (Speaking): PSB 32. Make and prepare for an oral presentation
LS 6: PSA 2. Compare the experiences of people using technology in the 21st century to those who lived in the 20th century
Example 2: LS 4: PSA 4.1.2. Cite examples of situations or occasions in which self-discipline could or should be practiced
LS 6: PSF 3. Practice respectful conduct when using the internet
Example 3: LS 2: (Scientific Thinking): PSB 8.6.1 Make a simple project proposal to address one prevalent problem
LS 6: PSC 3.2. (Word Processing) Make use of formatting in paragraphs
ICT integration goes beyond merely using computer hardware and software as communication and information management tools. It also includes
empowering ALS learners to explore the potentials offered by mobile devices, social media, and other digital media in order to navigate the digital world. This
journey as 21st-century digital citizens requires such learners to be practicing sound digital ethics and values so that ICT and other digital tools are used
responsibly and safely amid rapid technological changes. This includes guarding against potential risks and threats found in the digital world, and maximizing
the opportunities and potentials of ICT and other digital technologies as tools for personal and professional development and improving one’s quality of life as a
21st-century digital citizen.
