curriculum transaction...face to facemode and ICT enabled mode

Curriculum Transaction
Curriculum Transaction is the effective and desired implementation of the curriculum contents on the basis of aims and objectives listed in the curriculum. Curriculum Transaction incorporates effective planning for providing learning experiences for its learners, organization of planning, administration/implementation of the organized planning and evaluation of the implementations by the implementer and the experts in the relevant field.
Modes of Curriculum Transaction
Transactional modes have essentially been of two categories, First one is face-to-face mode and the second is distance mode.
1.      The face-to-face mode refers to instructional interactions in which learners and the teacher transact a curriculum in a face-to-face situation.  This mode includes inputs like seminars, discussions, lectures, demonstrations and any activity involving direct interaction between the learners and the teacher. The face-to-face mode is the oldest and most widely accepted mode.   Obviously, at a time when electronic media were not available and even the print medium was unknown, the most easily accessible channel for transmission of knowledge and for communication was through face-to-face interaction with the teacher.  With printing and the public school system, text books became available and assumed significance.  Over the years, the print medium has provided support to oral communication with the teacher, as the main focus in schools
2.   The distance mode, as the term indicates, pertains to all kinds of interactions between the teacher and learners in which they are not in direct contact with one another and require a third channel or medium for contact.   These include the print, audio, video, or any other mode.  Open learning systems generally utilize such modes.  Due to the indirectness of the contact or the distance between the teacher and learner, none of these media can by itself suffice for effective instruction.  They are, therefore, used in combination in order to make experiences more 'realistic' and meaningful.  Of late, more interactive media have been designed and utilized, such as interactive satellite television or teleconferencing.   The two modes need not be mutually exclusive. Correspondence education acquired significance as an alternative to 'teacher talk' in India, with increased availability of printing facilities.  As correspondence education widened with the emergence of open learning system, the media of transaction were diversified to include audio, visual and audio-visual mechanisms.  More recently, interactive television has come to be used for communication of knowledge.  The use of media has resulted in new roles for a teacher:  that of a designer and developer of these media making them suitable for instructional purposes, and that of a user of these during instruction

CRITICAL PEDAGOGY


In order to understand how critical pedagogy can be applied and how it may be demonstrated in the classroom.  Understanding that critical pedagogy is a movement in which in education it empowers students and teachers to recognize hegemony tendencies by developing consciousness social justice and connecting the knowledge to taken action and creating change. Critical pedagogy is based on  Paulo Freire, who is known to be the founder of critical pedagogy.  His philosophies centered on adult education


 Discourse
The teacher can either pose a question or an idea as students interact in conversation about the particular subject selected. A teacher can also pose a problem that exists in their community. The students learn about the idea as they interact in discourse with the teacher, members of community, and between students.

Guided by the Teacher
The teacher guides the students to the objective, that is what they are going to learn through the use of past events in history or current events that are occurring.   The activities selected by the teacher promote communication and allows the student to view other perspectives and incorporate real-word experiences.  However, the idea or concept they  learn is relevant in some way to the students. A possible event in history that impacted their community connected to a world event, similar to the video can be used in the lesson.

Students' Create/Explore/Develop

The teacher allows the students to expand on the idea  or  point of view the teacher wants them to understand and reflect. This is similar to the exploration and evaluation of the 5 E model.  However, students do not use materials given by the teacher.  The  students input is based on what they think and particularly seeking the right or wrong answer is not the objective of the lesson.  Students should feel empowered in learning.  The outcome of the lesson depends on the students interest and effor
