LEARNING MODULE No. 9
Course Title : Observations of Teaching – Learning In Actual School Environment
Topic : Preparing for Teaching and Learning
Time Frame : 1 hour
Objectives : At the end of the class, the students are able to:
a. identify the teaching-learning practices that apply or violate
the principles of teaching learning;
b. determine the guiding principles on lesson
objectives/learning outcomes applied in instruction;
c. judge if lesson objectives/intended learning outcomes are
SMART;
d. determine whether or not the intended learning outcomes
are achieved at the end of the lesson;
e. observe the teaching methods used by the Resource
Teacher; and
f. differentiate the different methods of teaching.
Introduction :
This module gives emphasis on the principles of learning which must be applied to
ensure quality instruction. It also focuses on the intended learning outcomes which set the
direction of the lesson. They must be (SMART) Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic and
Time-bound and formulated in accordance with time-tested principles. It also determines the
teaching method used by the Resource Teacher whether (inductive or deductive) which is the
practical realization or application of an approach. This module dovetails with the course on
Facilitating Learner-Centered Teaching.

REVISIT the Learning Essentials

These are the time-tested principles of teaching and learning:


1. Effective learning begins with setting clear expectations and learning outcomes.
2. Learning is an active process. “What I hear, I forgot; what I see, I remember; what I do,
I understand.”
3. Learning is the discovery of the personal meaning of ideas. Students are given the
opportunity to connect what they learn with other concepts learned, with real world
experiences and with their own lives.
4. Learning is a cooperative and a collaborative process.

A teaching method consists of systematic and orderly steps in the teaching-learning


process. Ot is the practical realization or application of an approach. All methods of teaching
can be classified either as deductive (direct) or inductive (indirect).

DEDUCTIVE INDUCTIVE

LEARNING MODULE No. 10

Course Title : Observations of Teaching – Learning In Actual School Environment


Topic : The Instructional Cycle
Time Frame : 1 hour
Objectives : At the end of the class, the students are able to:
a. identify the application of some guiding principles in the selection
and use of teaching strategies.
b. determine whether or not the lesson development was in
accordance with outcome-based teaching and learning.
c. identify the Resource Teacher’s questioning and reacting techniques.
d. outline a lesson in accordance with outcome based teaching-
learning.

Introduction :

This module centers on the guiding principles in the selection and use of teaching methods. It
will also tackle lesson development in the OBTL way. The K to 12 curriculum and teacher education
curriculum are focused on outcomes, standards and competencies. This means that lessons must be
delivered with focus on outcomes. Likewise, this Module dwells on types of questions, questioning
and reacting techniques that teachers make use of. The type of questions that teachers ask and their
manner of questioning and reacting to student responses has a bearing on class interaction. This
Module strengthens the theories learned in the course, Teaching Methods and Strategies and in other
professional subjects in Education.

REVISIT the Learning Essentials

These are the guiding principles in the selection and use of teaching methods:
1. Learning is an active process.
2. The more senses that are involved, the more and the better the learning.
3. A non-threatening atmosphere enhances learning.
4. Emotion has the power to increase retention and learning.
5. Good teaching goes beyond recall of information.
6. Learning is meaningful when it is connected to students’ everyday life.
7. An integrated teaching approach is far more effective that teaching isolated bits of information.

Realizing the importance of these guiding principles in teaching and learning, the Department of
Education promotes Standards-and Competency-Based teaching with its K to 12 Curriculum Guide.
The Technical Education Skills Development Authority (TESDA) has been ahead of DepEd and the
Commission on Higher Education (CHED) in the practice of Competency Standards-Based teaching
and Assessment. CHED requires all higher education institutions in the country to go outcome-based
education (OBE) in its CHED Memo 46, s. 2012. Outcome-based teaching and learning (OBTL) is
OBE applied in the teaching-learning process. It is equivalent to competency-based and standards-
based teaching and learning in the Kto12 Curriculum.
When you apply OBTL you see to it that the teaching-learning activities (TLAs) and in turn the
Assessment Tasks (ATs) are aligned with the intended learning outcomes. In order words, in OBTL
you first establish your intended learning outcomes (lesson objectives). Then you determine which
teaching-learning activities (TLAs) and also the assessment tasks (ATs) you will have to use to find
out if you attained your ILO’s.

In lesson planning, the ILOs are our lesson objectives, the TLA’s are the activities we use to teach
and the AT’s are the evaluation part.

OBE and OBTL are not entirely new. They are importantly mew. With mastery learning of
Benjamin Bloom (1971), we were already doing OBE

Likewise, it is also important that teachers must be able to have a mastery of the art of
questioning and reacting techniques to ensure the effective delivery of instruction.

These are the types of questions that teachers ask.

Types of Questions that Teacher Ask

1. Factual /Convergent/Closed /Low-level Who, What, Where, When questions With one
acceptable answer.
2. Divergent /Open-ended/High-level Open-ended; has more than one acceptable
/Higher-order /Conceptual answer.
a. evaluation
b. inference e.g. When the phone rang and Liz picked it up, she
was all smiles. What can you infer about Liz?
c. comparison
d. application
e. problem-solving
3. Affective e.g. How do you feel?

These are also some of the reacting techniques that teachers use:

1. Providing acceptance feedback


2. Providing corrective feedback
3. Giving appropriate and sincere praise
4. Repeating the answer
5. Explaining the answer / expanding the answer
6. Rephrasing the question
7. Asking follow up questions
8. Redirecting questions to other pupils
9. Soliciting student questions
10. Encouraging through non-verbal behavior
11. Criticizing respondent for his/her answer
12. Scolding for misbehavior or for not listening
13. Overusing expressions such as “okay”, “right”

technology for instruction, and explore resources in the virtual learning environment. Students will
analyze and reflect on how technology, including artificial intelligence, supports the teaching-learning
process.

REVISIT the Learning Essentials

UNESCO ICT Competency Framework for Teachers Version 3 (ICT CFT V3, 2018)

The Information and Communications Technology Competency Framework for Teachers (ICT
CFT) version 3 is a comprehensive framework guide teachers’ development on the effective and
appropriate use of ICT in education. It highlights what teachers should know and do clustered in six
aspects, namely; 1. Understanding ICT in Education, 2. Curriculum and Assessment, 3. Pedagogy, 4.
Application of Digital Skills, 5. Organization and administration, and 6. Teacher Professional Learning.

Similar to the PPST, the ICT CFT also articulated competencies in levels which guide
teachers as they develop their ICT skills from level 1, Knowledge Acquisition, to Level 2, Knowledge
Deepening, and Level 3, Knowledge Creation. The Commission on Higher Education Teacher
Education Curricula (2017) includes the UNESCO ICT CFT so most likely you have tackled this is
your Technology for Teaching and Learning classes.

It will be good to review the UNESCO ICT CFT v3 framework as you work in this module. The
activities here are meant for you to observe, analyze and reflect about the competencies discussed in
the framework. (Access it at https://www.open.edu/openlearncreate/pluginfile.
php/306820/mod_resource/content/2/UNESCO%20ICT%20Competency%20Framework%20V3.pdf)
The Learning Resource Center
1. A school usually sets up a center that will provide valuable support to the teaching-learning
process. Over the years the name of this center has evolved. Some of the names are
Audiovisual Center, Media and Technology Resource Center, Teaching-Learning Technology
Department, or Simply Learning Resource Center.
2. With the swift development of ICT, the natural outcome was the ever-expanding interface
between the traditional library and ICT both in terms of hardware and software systems and
applications.
3. Schools may have different set-ups when it comes to a Learning Resource Center (LRC).
Some have replaced the term library with LRC. Some have a separate library, LRC, and Audio
Visual or Media Center. Some only have the LRC both for teachers and students. Still some
have combined their learning resource centers with maker spaces.
4. The common purpose among these centers is to provide print, audio-visual and ICT resources
to support the teaching-learning process.
5. The goals of the Center may include orienting and training teachers in the use of audiovisual
and ICT resources, working with teachers and administrators in producing instructional
materials, making available useful resources to the students, teachers, and the school
community.
6. In order to support the philosophy and aims of the school, the Center must fulfill the following
functions: center of resources, laboratory of learning, agent of teaching, service agency,
coordinating agency, recreational reading center, and a link to other community resources.

Technology Integration

The Technology Integration Matrix provides a comprehensive framework for you to define
and evaluate technology integration. It will provide you direction and guide you in the process of
achieving effective teaching with technology. The teacher’s integration of technology in institution can
be described as progressing in 5 levels: entry, adaptation, infusion and finally transformation.

The teacher also works at creating a learning environment that encourages and enables quality
technology integration. The interdependent characteristics of the learning environment are being
active, collaborative, constructive, authentic, and goal-directed.

The Technology Integration Matrix connects the Levels of Technology Integration and the
Characteristics of the Learning Environment. Examine the matrix below. To make you understand
how integration is done in each of the levels and environment, explore the TIM website and learn from
the many interesting videos showing technology integration. Go to http://fcit.usf.edu/matrix/matrix.php

Evaluation of ICT Resources

The World Wide Web is like an endless network of information, ever-expanding and
almost limitless. Electronic resources come in different forms like websites, webquests, blogs,
social network sites, on-line courses, a wide range of tools, and so many forms of apps.

As a future teacher, one of the skills that will be most useful for you is the ability not
only to search for information but to make decisions, as to which ones you will take and use
and which ones you will put aside. Aim to develop your skills in evaluating internet resources.
You will be able to choose the best resources that will help you attain your teaching-learning
objectives.
Below is a set of criteria which you can use to evaluate resources:

1. Accuracy. The resource material comes from a reliable source and is accurate, free from
error and is up-to-date.
2. Appropriateness. The resource is grade/level-appropriate. The content matches what is
needed by the teacher.
3. Clarity. The resource clearly addresses the instructional goals in mind.
4. Completeness. The content is complete. It has all the information needed to be able to use
them.
5. Motivation. The resource is engaging and rewarding to learners. It will encourage the active
participation of the learners.
6. Organization. The resource is logically sequenced. It clearly indicates which steps should be
taken. The procedures or processed flow smoothly.

Education 4.0
Shwab described the 4th wave of the industrial revolution. The unprecedented speed at which
technology is evolving has disrupted many vital processes that involve how we run production,
businesses and consequently how we teach and learn. The following Technology trends have
huge potential to transform the ways we teach and learn (UNESCO, 2018):

1. Open Educational Resources (OER). OERs are materials that can be used for teaching and
learning that do not require payment of royalties nor license fees. There is an abundance of
OERs in the form of textbooks course materials, curriculum maps, streaming videos,
multimedia apps, podcasts, and many others. They can have a significant impact on
education as they are made available and easily accessible in the internet. Be sure to explore
them to help you work on this module.
2. Social Networks. Social networks have revolutionized the way we interact, learn about things
and share information. Sites and apps such as Facebook, twitter, Instagram provide a virtual
venue for teachers and learners to work together interact among themselves and with other
classrooms locally and globally.
3. Mobile Technologies. Filipinos are one of the most active on the internet, and also one who
sends the most number of text messages per day. This indicates the high number of mobile
device users. These devices can also be used as a learning tool by allowing teachers and
students more opportunities to learn inside and even outside the classroom.
4. The Internet of Things. IoT is a system of computing mechanisms that become built-in into
many everyday things that allow sending and receiving data through the internet. A lot of
things have turned “smart.” We have smart cars that can navigate on its own. Smart houses
that monitor temperature and light. Smart TVs that interface with the internet. Watches that
send our vital signs to our doctors. All of these developments can influence the way we teach
and learn.
5. Artificial Intelligence. Commonly, artificial intelligence is associated when computers or
machine simulate thinking and behaviors of humans such as talking, learning and solving
problems. Virtual assistants such as Siri, Alexa, Bixby and Google assistant are near samples
of AI. Among others, uses of AI in education can be in the areas of gamification and adaptive
instruction for learners with special needs.
6. Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality. VR is a simulation of an environment by a computer
program that allows a person to visit and experience the environment virtually. In AR, images
from computer programs interlay with the actual views of the real-word, resulting in an
extended, expanded, or altered view of a real-world environment. In education, among others,
VR and AR programs and apps allow more exciting ways of seeing and experiencing things
that add to the motivation and engagement of learners.
7. Big Data. Through the billions of interactions and transactions are done electronically, and
through the internet, an enormous amount of data is generated and stored. The challenge is
how to make sense of this data. Through analytics and research, possibly answer pertinent
questions about how to make teaching and learning most effective.
8. Coding. Coding is a skill necessary to create computer software, apps, and websites. Today,
there are learning programs that introduce coding activities as early as kindergarten. Robotics
programs in the elementary and secondary programs introduce and hone the skills of young
learners. Coding helps learners develop novel ways of exploring and trying out ideas,
especially when done with problem or project-based learning approaches.
9. Ethics and private protection. We have repeatedly heard about how quickly technology is
changing and impacting our lives. Through all this, it is crucial to ensure that human values
and principles govern or guide our use of technology. Ethical practices that protect the rights
of every person need to be upheld.
Massive Open On-line Courses

Massive Open On-line Courses (MOOCs) are online courses open to a big group of people.
Below are the basic information about MOOCS. Let us focus on each word.

Massive
 MOOCs are on-line courses designed for large number of participants, usually larger than the
number of students that can fit a regular classroom. There can be hundreds or even be a
thousand students or more.

Open
 There is mostly freedom of place, pace and time.
 Courses can be accessed by anyone anywhere as long as they have internet connection.
 Courses are open to everyone without entry qualifications.
 Some courses are for free.

Online
All aspects of the course are delivered online.

Course
The MOOC course offers a full course experience including:

 Educational content. May include video, audio, text, games, simulations, social media and
animation.
 Facilitation interaction among peers. Builds a learning community through opportunities to
interact.
 Some interaction with the teacher or academic staff
 Activities/tasks, tests, including feedback. Participants are provided with some feedback
mechanism. Can be automatically generated like quizzes, feedback from peers or the teacher.
 Some kind of (non-formal) recognition options. It includes some kind of recognition like
badges or certificate of completion. A formal certificate is optional and most likely has to be
paid for.
 A study guide/syllabus. This includes instructions as to how you may learn from the materials

LEARNING MODULE No. 12

Course Title : Observations of Teaching – Learning In Actual School Environment


Topic : Assessment FOR Learning and Assessment AS Learning
(Formative Assessment)
Time Frame : 1 hour
Objectives : At the end of the class, the students are able to:
a. demonstrate knowledge of the design and use of formative
assessment; and
b. explain the importance of formative assessment..

Introduction :

Assessment is an essential part of the instructional cycle. The instructional cycle consists of:
1) setting the intended learning outcome/s, 2) selecting a teacher methodology, strategy and activity
that are aligned to the learning outcome and topic which are developmentally-appropriate to the
learners and 3) assessment itself. Assessment is the part of the instructional cycle that determines
whether or not the intended learning outcome has been attained and so necessarily, the assessment
task must be aligned to the intended learning outcome.

In a lesson on assessment, we can speak of assessment for learning, assessment of learning


and assessment as learning.

This module will dwell on assessment for learning and assessment as learning. Assessment
for learning is referred to as formative assessment while assessment as learning is referred to as
self- assessment.

DISCOVER the Learning Essentials

 In Outcome-based Teaching-Learning/ Competency-based Teaching/Teaching by


Objective, we ensure that the intended outcome/competency/objective is attained at the
end of the lesson and so while we are still in the process of teaching we do check learner’s
understanding and progress.
 If we find out that learners failed to understand prerequisite knowledge and skills, we
reteach until learners’ master them. This is called FORMATIVE assessment, assessment
while the learners are being formed or taught. It is assessment in the midst of instruction.
 Formative assessment is also referred to as assessment for learning. Assessment for
learning simply means we do assessment to ensure learning.
 We do not wait for the end of the lesson to find out if learners understood the lesson or not
because if it is only at the end of the lesson that we discover that the learners did not
understand the lesson, we have wasted so much time and energy teaching presuming that
everything was clear, only to find out at the end of the lesson that the learners did not
understand the lesson at all. This means that we have to reteach from the very beginning,
something that we could have saved ourselves from doing had we given time to find out if
the lesson was understood while still teaching.
 Assessment for learning encourages peer assessment.

If yes, how?
ANALYZE

1. Why should a teacher find out if students understand the lesson while teaching is in progress?
It is not better to do a once-and-for-all assessment at the completion of the entire lesson?

2. Why is not enough for a teacher to ask “Did you understand, class?” when he/she intends to
not?

3. Should teacher record results of formative assessment for grading purposes? Why or why not?

4. Based on your observations, what formative assessment practice worked?

5. For formative assessment, why is peer tutoring in class sometimes seen to be more effective
than teacher himself/herself doing the re-teaching or tutoring?

6. Could an unreasonable number of failures at the end of the term/grading period be attributed
to the non-application of formative assessment? Why or why not?

TARGET Your Intended Learning Outcomes

At the end of this Module, student must be able to:


 demonstrate knowledge of the design and use of self-assessment; and
 explain the importance of self-assessment.

REVISIT The Learning Essentials

 Assessment as learning means assessment is a way of learning.


 It is the use of an ongoing self-assessment by the learners in order to monitor their own
learning.
 This is manifested when learners reflect on their own learning and make necessary
adjustments so that they achieve deeper understanding.
 Assessment as learning encourages students to take responsibility for their own learning.
 It requires students to ask questions about their learning.
 It provides ways for students to use formal and informal feedback and self-assessment to
help them understand the next steps in learning.
 It encourages self-assessment and reflection.

OBSERVE

Observe a class and find out practices that reflect assessment as learning. Record your
observations.

Teacher My Observation
1. Did teacher provide opportunities for the
learners to monitor and reflect on their own
learning?

2. What are proofs that students were engaged


in self-reflection, self-monitoring and self-
adjustment?

3. Did students record and report their own


learning?
4. Did teacher create criteria with the students
for tasks to be completed or skill to learned?

ANALYZE

1. If the student is at the heart of all assessment, then all assessment should support student
learning. Do you agree? Why or why not?

2. Does assessment as learning have the same ultimate purpose as assessment for learning?

REFLECT

The primary purpose of assessment is not to measure [but to further learning. Reflect on your
personal experiences of assessment in school. Were you given opportunities for self-assessment? If
yes, what was its impact on your learning?

Subject Area: Date:

TARGET Your Intended Learning Outcome

 Critique traditional assessment tools and tasks for learning in the context of established
guidelines on test construction

REVISIT the Learning Essentials

 Traditional assessment tools are also called paper-and-pencil tests.


 Traditional assessment tools usually measure learning in the cognitive domain.
 Traditional or paper-and-pencil tests can be classified either as selected-response tests or
constructed-response/supply type of tests.
 Common examples of selected –response type of tests are alternate response test (True-
False, yes-no), multiple choice and matching type of test.
 Common examples of constructed-response type of test are short answer, problem solving
and essay.

OBSERVE

 Observe classes and pay particular attention to the assessment tool used by the teacher.
 With teacher’s permission, secure a copy of the assessment tool.

Direction: put a check () on the test which teacher used. From your teacher’s test items, give an
example.

Activity 13.3 Observing the Use of Non-traditional Assessment Tools and Scoring Rubrics

Resource Teacher: Teacher's Signature:


School: Grade/Year Level:
Subject Area: Date:

TARGET Your Intended Learning Outcome

 Evaluate non-traditional assessment tools including scoring rubrics

REVISIT the Learning Essentials

 There are learning outcomes that cannot be assessed by traditional assessment tools.
 Authentic/non-traditional / alternative assessment tools measure learning outcomes like
performance and product.
 These performance task and product are assessed by the use of scoring rubric.
 A rubric is a coherent set of criteria for student’s work that includes descriptions of levels of
performance quality on the criteria. (Brookhart, 2013)
 The main purpose of rubrics is to assess performances and products.
 There are two types of rubrics – analytic and holistic. Analytic rubrics describe work on each
criterion separately while a holistic rubric assesses a student work as a whole.
 For diagnostic purposes, the analytic rubric is more appropriate.
 For a holistic view of a product or performance, the holistic rubric will do.
 A good scoring rubric contains the criteria against which the product or performance is rated,
the rating scale and a description of the levels of performance.

OBSERVE

 Observe classes in at least 3 different subjects and pay particular attention to the assessment
tool used by the teacher.
 With teacher’s permission, secure a copy of the assessment tool.
 Study the assessment tool then accomplish Observation Sheet.
 Did your Resource Teacher explain the rubric to the students?

Activity 13.4 Scrutinizing the Types and Parts of a Portfolio

Resource Teacher: Teacher's Signature:


School: Grade/Year Level:
Subject Area: Date:

TARGET Your Intended Learning Outcomes

 Evaluate a sample portfolio


 Distinguish among the 3 types of portfolio

DISCOVER the Learning Essentials

 A portfolio is a purposeful collection of selective significant samples of student work


accompanied by clear criteria for performance which prove student effort, progress or
achievement in a given area or course.
 A portfolio of student’s work is a direct evidence of learning. But it is not a mere collection of
student’s work. The student’s reflection must accompany each output or work.
 A portfolio is different from a work folder, which is simply a receptacle for all work, with no
purpose to the collection. A portfolio is an intentional collection of work guided by learning
objectives.
 Effective portfolio systems are characterized by a clear picture of the student skills to be
addressed, student involvement in selecting what goes into the portfolio, use of criteria to
define quality performance as a basis for communication, and self-reflection through which
students share what they think and feel about their work, their learning and about themselves.
 There are several types of portfolio depending on purpose. They are: 1) development or
growth portfolio, 2) best work or showcase or display portfolio, and 3) assessment / evaluation
portfolio.

OBSERVE

1. Ask your Resource Teacher for samples of portfolio, if any. If there are, select one best
portfolio from what you examined.\
2. If none, research for a sample portfolio and include them in My Learning Artifacts.
3. Based on the sample portfolio given by your Resource Teacher/researched by you,
accomplish Observation Sheet #.
4. Put a check in the right column.

What a Portfolio Includes


Elements of a Portfolio Present? Missing?
1. Clear objectives – The
objectives of the
lesson/unit/ course are clear
which serve
as a bases for selection
2. Explicit guidelines for
selection – What, when,
where, how are products/
documented performances
selected?
3. Comprehensible criteria- the
criteria against which the
portfolio is graded must be
understood by the learners
4. Selective significant pieces
– the portfolio includes only
the selected significant
materials.
5. Student’s reflection – There
is evidence that students
reflected on their learning.
6. Evidence of student
participation in selection of
content of portfolio – There
is proof that students took
part in the selection of the
content of the portfolio.

ANALYZE

1. With OBE in mind, which should be the basis for the selection of pieces of evidence to show
that what the student was supposed to learn was learned?

_
_

2. Scrutinize the elements of this portfolio. Based on the parts, under which type of portfolio does
this fall?

_
Elements of a Portfolio (Which type of Portfolio?)
1. Cover Letter – “About the Author” and “What My Portfolio Shows About My Progress as a
Learner”
2. Table of Contents with numbered pages
3. Entries-both core (required items) and optional items (chosen by students).
4. Dates on all entries to facilitate proof of growth over time.
5. Drafts or aural/oral and written products and revised revisions, i.e. (first drafts and corrected/
revised versions.)
6. Student’s Reflections

3. Where and when does the teacher make use of each of the 3 types of portfolio?

REFLECT

Have portfolios made the learning assessment process more inconvenient? Is the effort
exerted on portfolio assessment commensurate to the improvement of learning and development of
learners’ metacognitive process that result from the use of portfolio?

LEARNING MODULE No. 14

Course Title : Observations of Teaching – Learning In Actual School Environment

Time Frame : 1 hour
Objectives : At the end of the class, the students are able to:
a. describe the personal qualities and competences of effective
classroom teachers; and
b. enumerate the professional characteristics of practicing teachers
observed as based on the professional standards and code of ethics
for the profession.

Introduction :

What is really like to be a TEACHER? Why is being a TEACHER considered as one of the
most respected professionals in the Philippines? What makes a teacher differently better than any
other profession? What characterize a teacher as a person and as a professional?

This module will provide you a chance to observe teachers in their workplace at school in
order to answer the questions asked.

REVISIT the Learning Essentials

“My Teacher, My Hero” was a banner during the World Teachers’ Day celebration in the Philippines
in the years past. Are Filipino teachers, real heroes? What do you think? Why?

May answer is YES! Here are my reasons.

Personal Qualities of Filipino Teachers

To be a teacher in the Philippines is a challenging profession. Teachers serve the country just
like any other hero. To be a teacher requires a lot of personal and professional qualities. These
qualities make an excellent Filipino teacher an exceptional professional.

First, the teacher must have innate qualities or attributes that are exemplary and are fitted to
be teachers. These are natural tendencies of a person. Here are some of the qualities and attributes
that distinctly characterize a teacher.

Personal Qualities of Teachers and the Descriptors

Personal Qualities What the teacher IS and Does.


 Lives with dignity that  This teacher is honest, has integrity, self-respect and
exemplifies self-respect, integrity self-discipline. Likewise, respected by students, peers
and self-discipline and the community.
 Takes care of one’s physical,  This teacher is physically, emotionally and mentally
emotional and mental well-being healthy. Clean and neat, dresses appropriately and
pleasant in words and in action.
 Lives a life inspired by spiritual  This teacher behaves according to the personal spiritual
principles and beliefs beliefs that are not contrary to the norms, mores and
tradition of the community.
 Exhibits deep knowledge and  This teacher is mentally alert, makes correct decision,
understanding across intelligent to be able to acquire new knowledge, skills
disciplines and values needed in order to teach. She/he has the
ability to learn new things, re-learn old knowledge in
new ways, and un-learn knowledge, skills and values
that are no longer applicable to the current times.
 Recognizes own strength with  This teacher sets high goals for himself/herself, but
humility remains humble and willing to share success. He/she
is confident of doing task but does not consider self to
be
better than others all the time.
 Perseveres in challenging  This teacher is calm in the midst of chaos, remains
situation steadfast under pressure, does not easily give up and
adjusts to different situations.
 Demonstrates a natural action  This teacher volunteers tasks for others, always willing
to work together with others to share, extends help willingly, accepts responsibility,
tolerant of other people, and gives up time for the group.
Not everyone has these qualities; hence not everyone can be a good teacher. As the old
saying goes: “Teachers are born but good teachers are both born and made.”

Professional Competences of Filipino Teachers

Going to teacher training institutions and earning a teaching degree mean developing a
professional teacher like you. You can only become a professional teacher if you earn a degree to
teach in either elementary level or high school level. You should also earn a license to teach by
passing a licensure examination for teachers. While studying in college you are learning the ropes of
becoming a professional teacher. You learn the content courses including the major or specialization
and the professional courses including the pedagogy courses. Your professional courses include
experiential learning courses that include Field Study 1, Field Study 2 and Teaching Internship. These
are important in your preparation to become professional teachers.

So what are the professional competencies that every teacher should have? You will find
these in the matrix that follow.

Professional Competencies of Filipino Teachers


Professional Competencies What the teacher DOES
 Abides by the code of ethics for the  This teacher practices the rules and conduct
profession of professional teachers
 Masters the subject matter to be taught  This teacher masters and updates
himself/herself with subject matter content to

 Serves beyond the call of duty  This teacher does task and works even

So, it is not easy to become a professional teacher. The demand is great. A qualified
professional teacher then is like a HERO.

Now you are ready to identify if the enumerated characteristics are found among the teachers
you are going to observe.

There are two observation activities in this Module. Activity 1 will identify the Personal
Characteristics of the Teacher and Activity 2 will identify the Professional Competencies of the Teacher.

Course Title : Observations of Teaching – Learning In Actual School Environment


Topic : Towards Teacher Quality: Developing a Global Teacher of the 21st Century
Time Frame : 1 hour
Objectives : At the end of the class, the students are able to:
a. describe the personal qualities and competencies of a global
classroom teachers of the 21st century; and
b. design a learner-centered classroom for the 21st century learners
with learning spaces that are safe, that allows creativity and use of
ICT.

Introduction :

Moving towards teacher quality? Wanted! A Global Teacher of the 21st Century!

In 2013, a Global Status Index was determined by Varkey GEMS Foundation and revealed
significant findings. There were 21 countries surveyed which represented the major continents of the
world. In most countries that participated, it was found out that like the Philippines, teaching is the
most sought profession. It was comparable to being a social worker, librarians, nursing and even
doctors. Majority of the parents asked, answered that they encourage their children to become
teachers. To them, teaching is one of the most respected and trusted professions.

However, with the change in global landscape, the 21st century teachers must have the
competence to address the new learning environment, the new learning contents, the processes of
learning and how these are facilitated and the new types of learners.

Hence, we need the new type of teachers, a global 21st century Filipino teacher.
(Global Teacher Index p. 123 Teaching Profession)

REVISIT the Learning Essentials

FILIPINO GLOBAL TEACHER

A survey of the ASEAN countries and beyond tends to show that there are three major
responsibilities of teachers. These are (1) Actual Teaching. (2) Management of Learning and (3)
Administrative Work.

While the number of actual teaching hours per day varies all over the world, in our country,
teaching in the public schools requires sic hours of actual teaching that includes administrative work
such as management of learning per day. The two hours of the working day is allotted to
administrative work such as scoring and recording learner’s outputs, making reports, filling forms,
preparing for the next day’s activity and performing other administrative tasks. The previous module
on the teacher, reminded us of the qualities and competencies mentioned earlier. Teachers should be
multi-literate, multi-cultural, multi-talented, innovative and creative. The future Filipino teacher like you
shall act locally but think globally.
“Teach local, reach global” means that the teacher brings diverse experiences in the
classroom with the various skills to live and work as citizens of a global society. What teachers do in
the local communities’ impacts the larger community. As global citizens, the work begins, where the
teachers are, thus a “global” teacher.

Towards Quality Global Teachers

Quality teachers are characterized; by different attributes and skills needed in the 21 st century
education. Partnership 21 identified (1) Global awareness, (2) Financial, economic, business and
entrepreneurial literacy, and (4) Civic and Health Literacy which require:

1. Learning and Innovative skills.


2. Information, Media and Technology Skills
3. Life and Career Skills

More specifically, quality teachers are competent teachers who can demonstrate exemplary
mastery of knowledge, skills, values and dispositions relative to the following characteristics:

1. Understands one’s own cultural identity and rootedness


2. Knows and integrates global dimensions in the subject area
3. Engages learners in the learning processes
4. Uses real life local and global examples
5. Values the inputs of culturally and linguistically diverse learners
6. Models social responsibilities in local and global content
7. Encourages learners to find appropriate actions to improve local and global the conditions, and
8. Creates a learning environment that encourages creativity and innovations.

The Challenges of the Quality Global Teachers for the 21st Century

One of the major challenges of quality teachers is to “create a learning environment that
encourages creativity and innovation among learners.” With it, comes the management of learning in
such environment. These are required skills for a global teacher.

Majority of the current classrooms provide learning spaces that can hardly prepare the 21st
century learners for the development of the 21st century skills.

Since the 21st century classroom is learner-centered, the teacher acts as a facilitator of
learning. Students no longer study each subject in isolation, but they work on interdisciplinary projects
that cover several subject areas. Learning is no longer for memorizing and recalling of information but
on learning how to learn. Thus classroom designs should respond to the 21st century learning. More
so, quality teachers should be changing their roles from teaching in isolation to co-teaching, team
teaching and collaboration with students and peers.
How should a new classroom be? Here are some suggestions on the six elements of a new
classroom:
1. Flexibility of furniture and space
2. Collaborative learning
3. Facilitation of movement
4. Foster creativity
5. Use of technology
6. Provision of light and bright colors

With the classrooms structure, a quality teacher should be able to manage learning under a very
conducive learning environment. Teacher should use effective classroom management strategies that
will ensure productive learning.

Quality teachers should manage learning in an enhanced classroom by seeing it to it that learners
are:

 organized,
 orderly,
 focused,
 attentive,
 on task, and
 are learning.

This will take much of your skill, experience and patience. The two important factors that may
affect learning management are the use of technology and the diversity of learners.

LEARNING MODULE No. 16

Course Title : Observations of Teaching – Learning In Actual School Environment


Topic : On Teacher’s Philosophy of Education
Time Frame : 1 hour
Objectives : At the end of the class, the students are able to:
a. determine prevailing philosophies of education based on DepEd
Vision and Mission statements, core values and mandate, the K to
12 Curriculum Framework and Guide and RA 10533;
b. cite teacher’s teaching behaviors and the philosophies of education
on which these behaviors are founded; and
c. articulate my philosophy of teaching.

Introduction :

One thing asked of teacher applicants in the Department of Education is to write their
philosophy of education. This means that they have to write their concept of the nature of the learner,
how that learner learns and how that learner ought to live in order to live life meaningfully. Based on
these philosophical concepts, the teacher applicants describe how they ought to relate to the learner,
what to teach and how to teach so that the learner learns and lives life happily and meaningfully.

REVISIT the Learning Essentials

We are beneficiaries of a rich philosophical heritage passed on to us by great thinkers of the


past and of the present. The way teachers relate to learners and they teach are anchored on
philosophies of education.

Basic documents such as the vision and mission statements, core values and mandate of the
Department of Education and the features of the K to 12 Curriculum as contained in Section 3 of RA
10533 and the K to 12 Curriculum Guide are manifestations or expressions of the philosophies of
education of the country. They state the standards and the outcomes of education towards which all
curricular activities and teaching-learning should be directed.

statements, core values and mandate and on the K to 12 Curriculum Framework and Guide.
 Study the DepEd Vision and Mission statements, Core values and Mandate.
 Read the features of the K to 12 Curriculum based on the K to 12 Curriculum Framework and
Guide and Sec 5 of RA 10533.
 Accomplish the Table below by answering this question: Which philosophies are expressed?
 Cite relevant statements to back up an identified philosophy of education. You are given an
example.

Which philosophies are Which philosophies are


expressed in the DepEd Vision, expressed in the K to 12
Philosophies of Education Mission Statements, Core Curriculum Framework and
Values, and Mandate? Give Guide and Sec 5 of RA 10533?
poof. Give proof.
1. Essentialism – teach Essentialism – the core values Essentialism – List of

values in subject matter
2. Perennialism – teach those Any proof of perennialism?
that last, the classics; there
are universal values;
inculcate these universal,
objective values
3. Progressivism – very child- Any proof of progressivism?
centered; teach those that
interest the child; one
learns by experience;
learners learn by doing so
teacher teacher’s teaching
is experiential; values are
subjective; no inculcation of
values since they are
subjective; instead teachers
help students clarify their
values
4. Reconstructionism – school Any proof of reconstructionism?
is agent of change;
schooling is preparing
students for the social
changes; teaching is
involving the students in
discussion of moral
dilemmas
5. Existentialism – Teachers Any proof of existentialism?
teach learners to make a
choice, to make decisions
and not merely to follow the
crowd; one who does not
make a choice and so
simply follow others do not
leave meaningful life.
6. Pragmatism – That which is Any proof of pragmatism?
useful, that which is
practical and that which
works is what is good; that
which is efficient and
effective is that which is
good. E.g. showing a video
clip on mitosis is more
efficient and more effective
and therefore more
practical than teacher
coming up with a visual aid
by drawing mitosis on a
cartolina or illustration
board.
7. Rationalism – emphasizes Any proof of rationalism?
the development of the
learners’ reasoning powers;
knowledge comes though
reason; teacher must
develop the reasoning
power of the learner
8. Utilitarianism – what is good Any proof of utilitarianism?
is that which is most useful
(that which brings
happiness) to the greatest
number of peoples;
9. Empiricism – source of Any proof of empiricism?
knowledge is through the
senses; teacher must
involve the senses in
teaching-learning
10. Behaviorism – behavior is Any proof of behaviorism?
shaped deliberately by
forces in the environment
and that the type of person
and actions desired can be
the product of design;
behavior is determined by
others, rather than by
person’s own free will;
teacher must carefully
shape desirable behavior;
drills are commonly used to
enhance learning, rewards
reinforce learning.
11. Constructivism – learners Any proof of constructivism?
are capable of constructing
knowledge and meaning;
teaching – learning
therefore is constructing
knowledge and meaning;
teacher does not just “tell”
or dictate but asks learners
for knowledge they
construct
and meaning of lesson.
