Participate and Assist


After you have written your lesson plan, confer with your Resource Teacher
on how you can participate / assist in delivering instruction in one of his/her classes.
Robert Gagne’s Nine Events of Instruction, will guide you to implement the various
steps well.

Complete the given matrix by using Gagne’s Nine Events of Instruction, once
a lesson is assigned to you. Consult your Resource Teacher if your plans are ready for
implementation or your assistance is needed in any part of the lesson.

Notice
Using Robert Gagne’s Nine Events of Instruction, what did you notice in the
following segments of learning:

● How did the students react to the activities / various elements to arouse
their interest?
When the activities were given to the students during the discussion, some of
them were very participative and showed enthusiasm in cooperating by giving their
answers in the chatbox and joining the online game provided to them. We observed
that when students are given interactive activities, they can easily acknowledge them
and perform the tasks without difficulties. With that being said, we know that students
are hooked to the topic, and activities are given when these are fun to do. Thus, with
the educational setup that we have now, we measure students’ reactions to the
activities in class when they are enjoying doing these tasks.

● Were the students focused when you were stating the learning objectives
at the beginning of the lesson?
Yes, most of the students were paying attention when we stated the learning
objectives at the start of the class. To ensure that they were paying attention, we
would usually begin by telling them to listen closely and actively participate in the
class discussion in order to achieve the stated goals. In addition, we would have some
students read the learning objectives and then ask them if these were understood by
the class. Through their responses whether the objectives are clear for them, we were
able to know that they are aware of the learning objectives that they have to attain at
the end of the lesson.

● How did the new learnings relate with what they really know?
The act of students actively recalling prior knowledge on certain lessons is the
key to their new learnings. Thus, before presenting the new lesson they are asked
what they had learned from the previous topic/lesson through oral questioning or
activity. The things that they already know will lead them to discover new learnings
and because of that, the learnings will be continuous and effective.

● Did you notice some students who needed assistance? What did you do?
Yes, we noticed that there were some students who needed assistance
especially when we asked them questions during the course of our discussion of the
topic. For this particular situation, we opt to frequently repeat or rephrase our
questions in order for them to understand what is meant by the question and this
would allow them to answer the questions already. When this still doesn’t work, we
usually resort to asking other students to help their classmates in answering the
questions given.

● Did the students find difficulty in applying the theories / concepts


learned to real life?
The students did not find difficulty in applying the theories/concepts learned
to real-life because the concepts being presented were relevant to their everyday lives.
In fact, those concepts could help students realize how useful all knowledge could be.
So, as future teachers, we have to ensure that there is a clear understanding of what is
being taught. Also, we have to ensure that the concept has its own relevance so that
students can relate to it and acknowledge a perception that is interesting and worth
knowing to them.

● How did your students react to your feedback?


Giving students feedback entails explaining what they are doing correctly and
incorrectly, with the emphasis on what the learners are doing correctly. When a
student is given an explanation of what is correct and incorrect about their work, it is
most beneficial to their learning. In giving feedback to students they usually reacted in
a positive way. Most frequent attitudes I have observed in giving feedback were they
take it passively and in a self-effacing manner.

● What pieces of evidence can prove that the students had retention of
learning?
The pieces of evidence that can prove that the students had retention of
learning is through their scores during review activities; these do not only conclude
that they mastered their prior lessons but also are a great way to measure that they
actually acquire the knowledge intended for them to have. One other way also to
prove that they have retention of learning is when they can give answers and associate
them to a new concept, by then, we can clearly see that they did not only get
themselves familiar with the lesson but immerse themselves in the lesson being
taught. Other than what has been mentioned above, one evidence to prove that there is
retention of learning is when students are able to follow the progression of topics
being introduced in class, for example, teaching pronouns in class and students
already have the background knowledge of nouns. Hence, these pieces of evidence
will help the teachers and students to take track of their learning.

Analyze

After planning your lesson(s) you may be requested by your Resource Teacher
to deliver the lesson(s). Your Resource Teacher will use a classroom observation
sheet to evaluate the delivery of your lesson(s). Schools use different tools in rating
classroom/online observations. Below is an example of a classroom observation
form/sheet.

Overall impression of teaching effectiveness:


The teacher was able to demonstrate the lesson well using appropriate
methods to make the class engaged. Moreover, the teacher was able to adapt to the
new mode of delivering lessons where different online platforms such as google meet,
quizizz, jamboard, and a lot more were being utilized. However, as a novice teacher,
there were still areas that needed to be improved, especially in making the class more
enriched through prompting questions that would allow the students not only to
understand the topic but also to reflect on the importance of the topic presented.

Reflect
Having implemented several lessons in your Cooperating School under the
supervision of your Cooperating Teacher, in what areas of the lesson do you need to
improve?

I think what areas of the lesson do I need to improve are the preparation and
delivery of the lesson as to this new setup of online classes. Honestly, I am having a
hard time adjusting and making use of online tools in delivering the lessons. Also,
being mindful of the limited time which happens that some parts of the lessons may
not be delivered as the time is not enough. My first teaching was not that too good
because of some factors like unexpected technical problems, nervousness, and
manipulating online tools that I think I should be mastered. Despite all of those I am
still grateful to our cooperating teacher because she never leaves us and is very
approachable. She always gave us advice on what are the dos and don’ts in delivering
the lesson.

Write Action Research Prompts

OBSERVE
1. The following were the issues/challenges we had while delivering our lesson:
● Poor Internet Connection- The lesson was frequently interrupted by
delays in sending and receiving responses, which disrupted the flow of
the conversation.
● Limited Time for Discussion- The 40-minute class period was
insufficient for a meaningful discussion of the topic, and several of the
learning tasks were simply assigned to be completed asynchronously
because there was no more time to complete the evaluation activity.
● Low Students’ Participation- Yes, there were some who willingly
answered questions when asked but most of the time, we cannot elicit
responses from them.
● Technical Difficulties- Malfunctioning laptops, phones and
microphones were also one of the challenges that we usually
encountered in delivering our lessons.

REFLECT

2. We hope to achieve to address these problems and challenges by getting


everything set before the actual teaching session so that during the discussion it won’t
consume a lot of time in introducing and readying all necessary things needed. When
it comes to technical challenges like a browser issue, device issue, and connectivity
issue, we will address this by utilizing not too many web applications that sometimes
are the reason for the slowing down of the internet and device performance. Thus,
there must be a limit to the number of educational online tools to be integrated during
the teaching session. In the matter of low engagement and interaction level with the
students during class, we will address this by directing our students to use google
meet’s features like the chatbox to provide their answers there and using the raise
hand button to respond or acknowledge something from the discussion without
obliging them to talk and voicing their thoughts and takes on the questions prompted
by the teachers. With these challenges we encountered, we realize that there are other
ways where we can resort to to address these difficulties.

PLAN

3. Some strategies/solutions/ means that we can employ to improve the


situations/problems are preparing everything that is needed in class such as laptop,
online tools and internet connection, and rehearsing the lesson multiple times so that
we can familiarize the flow of the discussion. Another thing is that, it is good to have
Plan B. For example, the Quizizz link that is intended for the activity is not
functioning, so the teacher should also prepare the activity in the PowerPoint
Presentation as the Plan B, if Plan A does not work. On the other hand, in order to
address students’ low participation, we should use interactive activities that will make
them participate actively, and in a way of telling them that those who participate will
be given points. With this plan in mind, we can improve the situations in the virtual
classroom.

ACT

4. Based on our answers in nos. 1-3, the possible title of our action research on
this episode is “Readiness of Instruction and Intervention in Addressing
Students' Participation during an Online Class”.

To further enrich my knowledge on delivering my instruction whether in the


classroom or in remote learning, these are some of the online resources which
will help me in these activities. (Include books, websites, Youtube videos and the
like and share these to your peers.)
