Definition of Terms
Education is the process by which
society transmits its accumulated
knowledge, skills, customs and
values from one generation to
another.
Curriculum is the planned
interaction of pupils with
instructional content, materials,
resources, and processes for
evaluating the attainment of
educational objectives.

Socialization
Active process whereby human beings

Learn how to become members of society

Develop a self or sense of individual identity
and
Learn to participate in social relationships
with others

Socialization
is the process by which human begin
to acquire the skills necessary to
perform as a functioning member of
their society, and is the most
influential learning process one can
experience. Unlike many other
living species, whose behavior is
biologically set, humans need social
experiences to learn their culture
and to survive

SOCIALIZATION: TWO TYPES

1. Primary socialization
Occurs in childhood
Lays foundation that influences self-concept and
involvement in social life
2. Secondary socialization
Learning that occurs after people have undergone primary
socialization
Continues throughout life

AGENTS
OF
SOCIALIZATION

school

SCHOOL
the secondary agent of socialization
organizes social relationships
prepares child for adult life through
occupation preparation
teaches norms, society behaviour, values
(democracy, fairness, patience,
cooperation, etc)

 Education plays a large role in the

socialization of children.
The
school's function as a socializing
agent is that it provides the
intellectual
and
social
experiences from which children
develop the skills, knowledge,
interests,
and
attitudes
that
characterize them as individual and
that shape their abilities to perform
adult roles. The primary purpose of
education,
from
society's
perspective, is the transmission of
the cultural heritage.

School
socialize children by teaching them
their formal curriculum but also
learns a hidden curriculum.
The formal curriculum is the three
Rs:
reading
writing, and
arithmetic

But

there is also a hidden

curriculum that schools
impart, and that is the
cultural values of the
society in which the
schools are found.

hidden curriculum
A curriculum that goes beyond the
explicit demands of the formal
curriculum. The goals and
requirements of the hidden
curriculum are unstated, but
inflexible. They concern not what
students learn but how and when
they learn.

example:
When teaching kindergarten, a
teacher may assign students to
practice addition with one
another. This lesson both
educates children in basic
mathematics and in the social
values of teamwork and
reciprocity. In this example,
teamwork and reciprocity are
examples of the "hidden
curriculum. "

others

learning to wait quietly,

exercising restraint,
trying,
completing work,
keeping busy,
cooperating,
showing allegiance to both teachers
and peers,
being neat and punctual, and
conducting oneself courteously

Areas in the mesosystem influences

that are linked:
School- Child
School-Family
School-Peer Group
School-Media
School-Community

School-Child
deals
with
the
childs'
individual learning style and
how best the school can meet
their needs.

School-Family
is important because in order
for the child to succeed in
school, family involvement is
essential.

School and peer groups

are linked because children might
be influenced to fit in with their
friends, so whether or not the
friends think doing well in school
is it important cause it could play
a role in success at school.

school - media
Linked because T.V. is used in
some classrooms, such as
educational programs and
etc.

School - community
Schools are dependent on the
community to allocate resources for
them. This may include using tax
money to fund construction or
services, passing laws requiring
builders to include a school in a new
development, and setting school
boundries.

THEORIES
RELATED

looking-glass self
The looking-glass self is a
social psychological concept,
created by Charles Horton
Cooley in 1902, stating that a
person's self grows out of
society's interpersonal
interactions and the
perceptions of others.

The term refers to people

shaping themselves based on
other people's perception,
which leads people to reinforce
other people's perspectives on
themselves.
"People shape themselves based
on what other people perceive
and confirm other people's
opinion on themselves."

George Herbert Mead developed

a theory of social behaviorism to
explain how social experience
develops an individual's
personality. Mead's central
concept is the self: the part of an
individual's personality composed
of self-awareness and self-image.
Mead claimed that the self is not
there at birth, rather, it is
developed with social experience.

The teacher plays an important

role as a socializing agent, either
making the children want to
learn or turning them off from
learning. There are many things
a teacher can do to be effective:
Provide time and opportunity to
learn;
pace
instruction
accordingly,

Communicate high expectations

for student success, Involve all
students in learning activities by
engaging them in discussion and
providing motivating work, Adapt
levels of instruction to learning
needs and abilities of students,
Ensure success for students as
they progress through curriculum

1. Teachers are kind but not

affectionate in same way as parents
(to develop independence)
2. Students taught values such as
listening and being respectful to
those in authority
*teachers, elders, class heads*
learn to deal with authority figures
other than their parents and with
peers.

 3. Children are taught social

values of a culture from a
young age
countries history, taught
panatang makabayan, national
anthems and a like
enforces a sense of nationality

4. School enlarges childrens social

worlds to include people with
backgrounds very different from their
own.
accepting different types of people
- not to be judgemental, racist,
etc.

5. schools introduce students to

impersonal assessment of their
abilities through grades and
official records that will follow the
students throughout their
educational career.

Schools try to stress upon children the

importance of working for rewards,
and they try to teach neatness,
punctuality, orderliness, and respect
for authority. Teachers are called
upon to evaluate how well children
perform a particular task or how
much skill they have. Thus, in school,
children's relationships with adults
move from nurture and behavioral
concerns to performance of tasks
and skills determined by others.

1. Bullying

here in ph,

President Aquino signed the

Republic Act 10627 or the
Anti-Bullying Act of 2013
last Sept. 6, 2013,
requiring all elementary and
secondary schools to adopt
policies to prevent and address
bullying in their institutions.

The law defines bullying as any severe

or repeated use by one or more
students of a written, verbal or
electronic expression, or a physical
act or gesture, or any combination
thereof, directed at another student
that has the effect of actually causing
or placing the latter in reasonable
fear of physical or emotional harm or
damage to his property; creating a
hostile environment at school for the
other students.

The act of bullying also involves

infringing on the rights of other
students at school or materially and
substantially disrupting the
education process or the orderly
preparation of a school.

2. However, some teachers may

have a bad influence on students
Some children soon discovered,
received more than others =
rewards, and prizes or more
attention for undesirable
behaviour
Therefore classroom was an
unequal place despite teachers
efforts

3. Encounters bad influence

peers, observed and a like.
