Developmental Tasks of Intermediate Pupils: Input to an Instructional Design in MAPEH

The Music, Arts, Physical Education, and Health Education (MAPEH) is one of the K-12 educational field curricula that aims to improve learning competencies through age-appropriate developmental tasks. The Developmental Tasks Theory emphasizes that each stage of life requires certain tasks to be mastered for healthy development and adjustment. Failing to achieve these tasks can negatively impact future stages of development. For intermediate pupils to progress to the next academic level, they must acquire increasing competence and also a sense of responsibility, a realistic perspective, and the potential to self-direct but in order to fulfill these the level of achievement and factors that influence their performances must be determined. The objective of this study was to develop an Instructional Design Model that would serve as an instructional intervention for intermediate pupils. The level of achievement in the MAPEH developmental tasks and the challenges encountered by the pupils were analyzed to develop an instructional design model for MAPEH. Integrating R-2I-2C Pedagogical Approaches based on the theory and findings was created to enhance the teaching of Music, Arts, Physical Education, and Health Education. This compendium of MAPEH lesson plans has been created to seamlessly incorporate R-2I-2C pedagogical approaches.
