1. What could be the reason behind the renaming of the Bureau of Non - Formal Education to
Bureau of Alternative Learning System?

The reason of renaming is to view the Philippines as a nation where all the citizens,
especially the marginalized individual or group of learners who could not equitably gain access
to formal education because of unwanted conditions be given equal access to quality education
by taking an alternative learning system that will enable them to become productive workforce
and members of the land.

2. E. O. #356 states that the Alternative Learning System is a parallel learning system to provide
a viable alternative to the existing formal education instruction. What is meant by parallel
learning system?

It is a parallel learning system in the Philippines that provides option to the existing
formal instruction. When one does not have or cannot access formal education in schools, ALS
is an alternative or substitute. ALS includes both the non-formal and informal sources of
knowledge and skills.

It means that both public and private schools are guided by one normative standard.

LESSON 2

ESSAY

1. Actual classroom teaching a day should not exceed six hours. What can be some reasons
behind their limit on teaching hours?

I have to say that it is for the reason that both teachers and students can’t constantly
maintain their interest and energy on their studies if classroom teaching shall exceed for 6hours.
It would be the most effective way to teach and learn without making both of them get bored in
their lessons.

2. What are your realizations about the teaching profession after a study of the Magna Carta?
Do these realizations help you decide to pursue the teaching career?

I came up with realizations that teaching isn’t an easy job, it requires full dedication and
compassion on the profession itself same with the learners. Teaching also requires an ability to
communicate fluently with patience. Teachers are paragon of virtues and foundation of
knowledge. These realizations will definitely be the key points why I would like to teach in the
future.

SUMMATIVE TEST

1. Explain the meaning of “exigencies of the service” referred to in the section 6 of the Magna
Carta for Teachers.

Exigencies of the service means its urgent, there are times wherein teachers are
required to transfer from one station to another, such as transfer may be effected by the School
Superintendent who shall previously notify the teacher concerned of the transfer and the
reason or reasons thereof.

2. Why it is imperative to consider teachers as professionals and teaching a profession?

Teaching is a paid occupation therefore I believe should be defined as a profession. To be

a professional in teaching, it is important to ensure you are a good example for young children
to follow. It is also important to consider the way you conduct yourself to your peers and to
wider society, not just to your colleagues, because teachers being known as professionals can
depend highly on the way they are viewed by society, which relies on the way the individual is
portrayed to others.
