LESSON 1: LEARNING RESOURCE MAPS FOR DISTANCE LEARNING

ACTIVITY 1
1. Based on the map, what resources should you have in order to implement the LDM
adopted by your School/Division?
Modular distance learning is the adopted modality in our school. Hence, printed self-
learning materials and activity sheets are the resources that we are going to utilize.

2. Do you have the complete resources for the Distance LDM needed in class? If the LRs
are not complete or not available, what steps will you take to make these available?
What are your options to substitute these missing LRs?
The school is now in the process of reviewing the SLMs provided to us. But teachers
are already utilizing the use of LR Portals like LRMDS and DepEd Commons to find
useful and effective LRs to supplement the SLMs if need be.

3. What support will you need to maximize the use of the two DepEd-sanctioned LR
Portals? From whom can you get this support?
A good and stable internet connection is a primary need in accessing these online
portals. A support group to ensure the quality and appropriateness of the LRs should be
established. I will get the support from my fellow educators and the technical support
from out ICT coordinator.

4. Based on your evaluation of the materials, are they appropriate to the level and
characteristics of learners? Are there learners who might be disadvantaged by the
materials (based on reading ability, level of learning independence, level of household
support, distance)? What adjustments will you make in terms of the LRs?
The resources are appropriate to the different levels of our learners. These resources
are in editable formats so improving or adjusting it to meet the needs of all learners
should be easy.

ACTIVITY 2
In your LAC Session, share and discuss your answers from the previous activity. What
support can you provide to your colleagues and what support can you get from them in terms
of LRs? Take note of the insights that you can gather from your colleagues and write them in
your Study Notebook.

We have agreed to provide immediate technical assistance to each other when we

encounter problems in accessing online portals for LRs. We also came up to a consensus

to share updates and useful tools and knowledge about more sources whether offline or
online sources of LRs to suffice the needs for additional useful LRs.

LESSON 2: ACCESSING LEARNING RESOURCES FROM DepEd

PORTALS
ACTIVITY 1

Explore the Portals. In your Study Notebook, answer the following questions:
1. Given the LDM adopted in your School, how can the two DepEd portals respond to
your LR needs and those of your learners’? How do they complement the LRs that you
already have?
The LRMDS and DepEd Common portals provide supplementary materials to our
SLMs that we can download, improve and adjust to meet the needs of all our learners. It
gives variety of learning activities to complement the existing LRs I have prepared.

2. What are the challenges in accessing the LRs in the portals both for you and your
learners? How will you overcome these challenges?
The biggest challenge in accessing these portals is a poor or very slow internet
connection. The alternative way is to find some place where the signal reception is
better.

3. What support will you need to be able to maximize the use of the LR Portals? From
whom can you get this support?
A good and stable internet connection is a primary need in accessing these online
portals. A support group to ensure the quality and appropriateness of the LRs should be
established. I will get the support from my fellow educators and the technical support
from out ICT coordinator.

ACTIVITY 2

In your next LAC Session, share and discuss your answers to the questions in Activity 1.
Explore how you can help and support each other in using the LR portals. Jot down the
insights and helpful information regarding the use of the LR portals in your Study Notebook.

We agreed to provide technical assistance in case problems occur while accessing the
said portals. We also decided to include the updates of these portals to our future LAC
sessions.
LESSON 3: ASSESSING THE LR MATERIALS

ACTIVITY 1

Study the LR Rapid Assessment Tool. Download an LR from either DepEd Commons or
LRMDS Portal and assess the material using the tool. Answer the following questions in your
Study Notebook:
1. Was the material able to meet all the requirements?
The download LR material met the learning targets of the lesson. The LR has the
basic standards required to deliver the MELCs.

2. Were there any questions in the assessment tool where you answered “No” or
“Cannot Be Determined”? What decision will you make on the LR material? Why?
The evaluation method has achieved the quality and reliability of the activities to
manipulate and optimize the use of the LR portal.

3. Are there other aspects of the material not covered by the tool but still need to be
assessed? Specify which aspect/s.
The learning material covered the lesson but require some description and
terminology to achieve the best understanding of the concepts.

4. How does this exercise help you in picking the right and appropriate LRs for your
lesson and your learners?
Understanding the management of this LR Portals, this gives me the confidence and
motivation to look for the most appropriate learning resources to my learners.

ACTIVITY 2

Explore other non-DepEd LR portals/platforms you can find online. Take note of the portals
in your Study Notebook. Download at least one LR from each portal. Assess the materials
using the same tool and answer the following questions in your Study Notebook:
1. Based on the Assessment Tool, how does the material from a non-DepEd Portal
compare with the LR from the DepEd Portal?

The resources are not quality assured and only provide minimal support to attain
the learning objectives for the students.

2. Based on the results of the Assessment Tool, what improvements do the materials —
both from DepEd and Non DepEd portals — still need?
A more precise and easier to follow instructions can be developed. Upload more
additional resources to meet all the learners’ needs and levels of understanding.

3. How does this exercise help you in picking the right and appropriate LRs for your
lesson and your learners?
Understanding the management of this LR Portals, this gives me the confidence and
motivation to look for the most appropriate learning resources to my learners.

ACTIVITY 3

Choose one of the LR materials that you have developed. Assess this material using the same
tool. Answer the following questions in Your Study Notebook:

1. How does your material compare with the ones that are obtained from the online
portals?
The material needs more precision and quality assurance.

2. What improvements do you still need to make in your developed material?

The complexity of contents to meet the learning needs of my students.
