Citizenship Education
• Since the birth of the Malaysian nation in
1957, there have been the continuing
definitions of nationhood, sovereignty,
citizenship, national character and
national identity. While there are
contentious debates in the political arena
regarding citizenship issues in the
multiracial state, the school system has
faithfully been teaching some form of
“citizenship education.”
IbrahimABajunid
INPUMA11Nov2009
Citizenship Curriculum Metamorphosis
• Over the years through successive reviews, the
curriculum of citizenship education underwent
curriculum metamorphosis. Whatever, the
curriculum revisions and structures, the
curriculum still somehow maintained the
fundamental objectives of citizenship education.
Civics, History, Moral Studies, Islamic Education,
Malaysian Studies, Co-curricular activities and
even Language learning, Values education, and
Thinking Skills have all been the promoters and
repertoires of the contents of citizenship
education.
IbrahimABajunid
INPUMA11Nov2009
The continuing challenge of
citizenship education in
Malaysia
• To foster a sense of multiracial,
multireligious, multilingual
nationhood and enlightened citizenry
where all peoples are equal before
the law, irrespective of origins.
• Rukunegara is the basis of the
Malaysian Citizenship Education
IbrahimABajunid
INPUMA11Nov2009
National Ideology- the
Rukunegara
•
•
•
•
OUR NATION, MALAYSIA, being dedicated
To achieving a greater unity of all her peoples;
To maintaining a democratic way of life;
To creating a just society in which the wealth of the nation shall
be equitably shared;
• To ensuring a liberal approach to her rich and diverse cultural
traditions,
• To building a progressive society which shall be oriented to
modern science and technology;
We, her peoples, pledge our united efforts to attain these ends
guided by these principles:
• Belief in God
• Loyalty to King and Country
• Upholding the Constitution
• Rule of Law and
• Good Behaviours and Morality.
(Ministry of Information, 1971)
IbrahimABajunid
INPUMA11Nov2009
From National to Global
Citizenship
• The new challenge of citizenship
education is the challenge for
Malaysians to take on the duties,
responsibilities, and obligations of
being global citizens while being
nationally patriotic.
• With the new realities and agenda,
new literacies-multi literacies are
required to be achieved
IbrahimABajunid
INPUMA11Nov2009
The Quest for Authenticity
• The rhetoric and practices of
citizenship education.
• The initiatives for citizenship
developments in the wider society
and in the education system.
IbrahimABajunid
INPUMA11Nov2009
Building overarching principles
of Citizenship Literacies
• Principles, ideas, programmes and
institutions which promote citizenship
education among school children,
university students, adult learners and the
public at large.
• Current initiatives which indicate the
trends and future directions of citizenship
education and the making of knowledge
and virtues based citizenry.
IbrahimABajunid
INPUMA11Nov2009
The notion of social contract
Abdullah Ahmad Badawi (2004a):
• “…any society and especially diverse multicultural societies
will benefit from a social contract. It provides a framework
for political, social and economic intercourse that is agreed
upon by all communities. It reduces misunderstanding and
conflicts of interest, and allows people to focus upon
improving their lives in peace and harmony. The failure to
put place viable social contracts is at the root of many
conflicts afflicting nation states around the
world….Malaysia’s experience is that a strategy of inclusion,
participation and respect fro the legitimate rights of all
ethic, religious and cultural groups, and just recognition of
the special position due to the indigenous peoples is the
best formula to mange its diversity.”
IbrahimABajunid
INPUMA11Nov2009

New Integrated Secondary School
Curriculum
• The History Curriculum integrates three related threads:The overall notion of Patriotism.
The Contents of History, and,
The Structure of the Discipline of History.
The history syllabus contains concepts such as the family
community, the local community, the affiliative community,
the school community, the state community, the regional
community and the world community.
Key citizenship concepts in the curriculum which involve
political and historical literacy simultaneously, include ideas
of citizen's national and international rights, duties,
obligations, entitlements, privileges.
IbrahimABajunid
INPUMA11Nov2009
Key citizenship concepts
Justice and fairness, rights and responsibilities,
laws and rules and regulations, and charters,
power and authority and ruling elites and interest
and pressure groups, democracy and community,
conflict and cooperation, dialogue, discourse and
negotiation, diversity and independence, freedom
and constraints.
The Patriotic Component emphasizes the
development of the citizen who is proud to be a
Malaysian, who is loyal to the country, who has
the spirit of belongingness, who is disciplined,
industrious and economically and culturally
productive.

Of Historical Emphathy
Historical empathy means the attainment of thinking which
enables the understanding of continuity and change as to
why People did what they did and why present
circumstances and realities are as they are today. This
understanding of Historical Empathy is supposed to be from
multiple perspectives. The student who looks at history
from the perspective of historical Empathy is actually
building an open pattern of thought which is tolerant and
mature. History education is regarded as the “tool” which
will achieve citizens who are more responsible.
(Kementerian Pendidikan Malaysia 2002)
IbrahimABajunid
INPUMA11Nov2009

concepts of rights –civil, political and
social
“Civil rights entail equality before the law,
the due process of justice, and the right to
conclude contracts as equals-that is, the
rule of law in its widest sense. Political
rights include the right to vote and to
express one’s views. Social rightsin part
embrace civil and political rights-they
liberate people from insecurity, and
include the right to an education and the
right not to fall below a certain level of
income.
(See, Baglin Jones and Neville Jones, 1992.)

The objectives of the TITAS course
[Islamic and Asian Civilization]

The importance of Patriotism and
Citizenship Education.
The spirit of Patriotism is the essence of national strength and the
citizens’ happiness. To foster the feeling/spirit of patriotism is one
aspect of comprehensive and integrated education. As Malaysian
citizens, every school administrator, teacher and student do come
together to take the serious attitude regarding loyalty and
undivided love for the nation. The ceremonies of raising the
Malaysian Flag, singing the national anthem, and taking the
pledge should be ideally conducted during daily or weekly
assemblies. If the ceremony cannot be conducted in weekly or
daily group assemblies, the ceremony should be conducted
simultaneously in the respective classrooms according to the
discretion of the school. Schools which have a good public address
system, the facilities should be used to ensure that the ceremony
takes place simultaneously for the whole school.

• there are often the apparent disconnect between
curriculum changes in schools and curriculum
changes in teacher education. …changes in the
economic sector occur so fast that the education
sector sometimes do not keep track…the
educational bureaucracy grew in size with a large
number of leaders in compartmentalized
domains, coordination became problematic. To
some extent both teachers colleges and
university teachers tended to align themselves
more to the colleagues in the world of academia

The universal technical and
administrative and faith and ideologybased concerns
• The teacher in Muslim society is not a
mere wage- earner or a professional
worker, but a committed member. His
excellence does not depend only on his
qualification or his Knowledge; it depends
upon what type of person he is in terms of
his faith and belief and in terms of his
conduct and character. His role transcends
that of an instructor in-so-far as he
becomes the mentor, teacher and guide of

younger generation.

Honing Educational Leadership
• The aspect of the contesting ideology pertaining
to teacher education has been a neglected aspect
of teacher education curriculum which had
traditionally focused on the technical and

Teachers Colleges and the International Islamic
University do have their own faith based debates
on the ideologies of teacher development vis-vis

The education sector as one of the
flagships of the Multimedia Super
Corridor
• As the nation was engaged in the national Information
Technology Agenda, the clarion call in school was that the
"teacher is no longer a sage on stage, but, as a guide by
the side." As teachers in schools especially older ones have
to master IT skills and become IT literate, in the same way,
lecturers in teachers college have to quickly master the new
skills in order to function relevantly in the context of the
Digital Age in education. What is clear is that teacher
Education institutions and teacher educators are expected
to be the leaders of educational knowledge leadership if

Taking a Position Regarding the
Quality of Teachers
A position articulated regarding the
teaching profession is noted thus:
Development and change occurring today
in the field of education requires a change
of the society's perception towards the
teaching profession. The teaching
Profession cannot be regarded as a career
for just anyone. Only those with quality,
competencies, authority, qualifications,
interest, will and committed as teachers
should be admitted into the profession.

Surface Structure and Deep Structure
Changes in Teacher Education Reforms
• Changes, reforms and transformations can be
qualitative or quantitative and at different
degrees and levels of deep structure or surface
structure change (Bruner, 1996). Rebuilding a
school from wooden structure to brick and
cement structure is really not educational reform.
However, changing the medium of instruction or
an examination system is deep structure change
and more so when it is the change in the
contents and structure of the knowledge corpus
and its reorganizations
IbrahimABajunid
INPUMA11Nov2009
Conservatism and Guided
Enlightenment
• Few educators have created the opportunities to
explore education from multiple perspectives at
the level of connoisseurship for such subjects
have not been subjects of directions for
continuous professional growth.
• in the conservative and ideologically cautious
cultural traditions, there are few intellectual
spaces for education critiques in the traditions of
teaching as a subversive activity, the pedagogy
of the oppressed, deschooling society, the bell
curve wars and the ideologies of the curriculum.
IbrahimABajunid

Formulation, Policy Making,
Teacher Education and Citizenship
Education
• While there are relatively transparent procedures in the
selection of pre service teachers, the selection criteria for
teacher educators to be the intellectual, pedagogical and
knowledge leaders responsible in influencing the next
generation of teachers have not been clear. The efforts to
make sense of educational happenings are acts of
knowledge leadership. Making Sense of national Concerns
and making the connections with Teacher Education would
involve understanding such diverse concerns as
Maintenance Management and strong philosophy and policy
studies background, understanding the challenges of
national accountability and integrity, Human Rights Watch,
Human Resources development and Interfaith dialogues.
IbrahimABajunid
INPUMA11Nov2009
Areas of terra incognita, hiatus and gaps in
Teacher Education
• The study of teacher trade unionism and professional associations
and educational philanthropy. These knowledge areas are actually
aspects of in the politics of education.
• This neglect of making the connections is because of the
compartmentalization and sub specializations of subjects and also
because it is assumed that that with such emphases strong and
good character would be automatically shaped and cultivated.
Understanding of Character Education is limited to becoming a
good person and not related to the professional or intellectual
character or civic character of teachers or of students and the
shaping of the national character of the citizenry. It is clear that
the exciting script and drama of educational Knowledge
management has not been explored in imaginative ways,
sometimes in dramatic ways as in the domain of Teacher Thinking
and the (wo) man in the Principals Office and the minds and souls
of children.

The Craftsmanship and Artistry
of Teacher Education
• The more esoteric but high order conceptions of
understanding education and Art and Science of Teaching
and Learning have therefore not received due attention.
These so called higher levels are actually not just about the
character of teachers and their competencies, but about,
for instance, mindfulness and intellectual character (Rusk,
1965; Langer, 1989; Lipman, 1991; Ritchhart 2002). One
aspect of the higher level is, for instance, the mindful and
profound understanding of Alignment of Curriculum,
Pedagogy and Instruction and Assessment (Formative and
Summative) and synthesizing state of the knowledge of
education at the present time (Freiberg, 1999; Ratey,
2002; fuller, 2002).

The teaching-learning ideas and
practices of indigenous educators
• Every subject has its own unique structure and some
different possibilities to create and set induction and
maintain the interest of learners (Gross, 1991; DePorter,
and Hernacki, 1992;'Sullivan, 1999; Mapes, 2003). Also,
every subject has great possibilities to enable students to
generate the important questions within the cognitive,
affective and psychomotor domains, thus honing high order
conceptual skills the unique possibilities the art and
techniques of questioning offer in the pursuit of profound
knowledge, systematically. From the scattered ingredients
of educational knowledge, the critically reflective and
concerned educator can get to work crafting with artistry
and meaning and simplicity the lore of educational
connoisseurship.

• Knowledge management is the leveraging of collective

criteria which must be made before information can be
considered knowledge, distinguishing information
management from knowledge manage are:
• Knowledge is connected and exists in collection of multiple
experiences sand perspectives.
• Knowledge management is a catalyst-knowledge, for the
most part exists only in action (Peter Drucker). A Little
knowledge that acts is worth more than much knowledge
that is idle. Khalil Gibran.
