Hello freshman! I am Rhem, your instructor for this course. I am welcoming you to “Teaching Profession”, a
very essential subject that would give you an overview of how important the role of an educator is. This course
would be of great help to the next professional education subjects that you are having now or later.

In this new normal, we are too far away in conducting face to face classes thus alternative ways are to be
implied. Considering our every situation, we are having asynchronous learning wherein;
 a. As a form of discussion I’ll be sending you recorded PPT presentations of our lessons
b. We will have an on-line meeting at least few times a month. We’ll have the most appropriate schedule
for everyone.
c. I’ll be giving you e-copies and sources of learning materials (google drive link sharing) that you will be
needing. In return, I am hopeful that you will look for additional sources from the net and books.

LEARNING SETTING

1. I will be implementing e-asynchronous and e-asynchronous learning. According to NewRow,

Synchronous e-learning happens to real time online learning best exemplified by online classes, training
 sessions, and webinars taught through an online virtual classroom while the latter is about learning at
your own time and pace. They have their own advantages and disadvantage but still let’s make the best
out of them.
2. For e-asynchronous learning, you will be given recorded PowerPoint presentations of the topics that
must be covered for a particular time. (I recorded it myself, thus the discussions are there.) Links for
additional readings and scanned copy of book and the ppts will all be found in our google classroom.
You can access this presentation videos anytime, anywhere (as long as net is present).

3. For e–synchronous, we will have on-line classes few times a month. We will utilize it for summarize
discussions and other activities that can’t be accomplished in asynchronous.
