• Educational ideology is “...any package of educational ideas held by a group of people about formal arrangements for education”.
(Matheson, 2008, cited in Bates et al, 2011, 44)
• The influence of political ideology on educational ideology in most countries is very evident.
EDUCATIONAL IDEOLOGY
3EDU5810/30
“Too many future teachers graduate from prep programs unprepared for success in the classroom," said U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan. "We have to give teachers the support they need to ensure that children get the high quality education they deserve. Our goal is to develop a system that recognizes and rewards good programs, and encourages all of them to improve.”

12EDU5810/30
A long range planning, takes 25-40 years General and comprehensive in nature To provide a guideline to be followed by other
related fields; on the use of educational resources, on how to monitor and evaluate educational progress and problems.
Example: Wawasan 2020 (Vision 2020)
1. COMPREHENSIVE EDUCATIONAL PLANNING
Adapted: Courtesy Mohd Majid Konting, UPM, 2011.

To adapt current practices as a result of reaction from external development
Problem solving in the narrowest sense To ensure organizational equilibrium Example: Introduction of English in the Teaching of
Science and Mathematics & MBMMBI
2. ADAPTIVE EDUCATIONAL PLANNING
EDU5810/30

As a means to absorb emergency with minimum inconvenience
Example: contingency examination centres during the monsoon season
3. CONTINGENCY EDUCATIONAL PLANNING
EDU5810/30
Courtesy : Mohd Majid Konting, UPM, 2011.
A detailed account on what should be done Rigid, but necessary Motivational instrument: congratulation if
successful and punishment if failed Example: school finances, must pass subject
4. COMPULSIVE EDUCATIONAL PLANNING
EDU5810/30
Courtesy : Mohd Majid Konting, UPM, 2011.
Manipulating various strategies and instruments to get maximum results
Among the strategies used: deals, trades and personal inducements
Example: school cooperatives
5. MANIPULATIVE EDUCATIONAL PLANNING
EDU5810/30
Giving the right signals in the hope that they (the actors) in turn will take appropriate actions
Instrument: Check list Example: PTA activities, NCLB
6. INDICATIVE EDUCATIONAL PLANNING
Adapted: Courtesy Mohd Majid Konting, UPM, 2011.
EDU5810/30
Planning that takes short steps, correcting mistakes as it proceeds
Such a process, while constituting acceptable short-term adaptability, is accumulative in nature
A sufficient body of mistakes will force the planner to take a completely comprehensive approach.
On the other hand, such planning, if successful, should accumulate a sufficient body of experience to enable the educational planners to attempt comprehensive planning
7. INCREMENTAL EDUCATIONAL PLANNING
Adapted: Courtesy Mohd Majid Konting, UPM, 2011.
EDU5810/30
Planning pursued by itself and not as a part of any other planning.
Example: the teacher might exercise her/his own teaching strategies, schools may introduce their own initiatives for school improvement
8. AUTONOMOUS EDUCATIONAL PLANNING
Adapted: Courtesy Mohd Majid Konting, UPM, 2011.
EDU5810/30
To put things in their original form without considering what would happen
Its aim is to return to the status quo Example: School fee
9. AMELIORATIVE EDUCATIONAL PLANNING
Adapted: Courtesy Mohd Majid Konting, UPM, 2011.
EDU5810/30

Focuses on a particular aspect of the total educational problem.
Essentially, this type of planning is segmented in nature, but still functions as a part of the total planning effort
Example: education for special children(see suplement 2: Buku Dasar Pendidikan)
10. FUNCTIONAL EDUCATIONAL PLANNING
EDU5810/30

Specifies the target groups, the program requirement, and the resources needed to achieve a specific objective.
Example: tuition classes
11. EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMMING
EDU5810/30
“Educational change depends on what a whole range of people who are more or less directly involved actually do. If they are to do what the change expects them to do, a degree of ‘reculturing’ is often needed. Within any national education system, people work in differing contexts.”Wedell, 2009, p.29.
