ACTIVITY DESIGN FOR WORK IMMERSION IN CABANGLASAN NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL

S.Y. 2020 – 2021

I. INTRODUCTION

Work Immersion is one of the course requirements for graduation. A Senior High School student has to
undergo Work Immersion in an industry that directly relates to the student’s postsecondary goal. Through Work
Immersion, the students are exposed to and become familiar with work-related environment related to their field
of specialization to enhance their competence. Specifically, the students are able to: (i) gain relevant and
practical industrial skills under the guidance of industry experts and workers; (ii)appreciate the importance and
application of the principles and theories taught in school; (iii) enhance their technical knowledge and skills;
(iv) enrich their skills in communications and human relations; and (v) develop good work habits, attitudes,
appreciation, and respect for work. These prepare them to meet the needs and challenges of employment or
higher education after graduation. ( k to 12 Basic Education Curriculum Senior High School 2017).

Work Immersion is important because it give students an avenue of exposing their specialized skills in the
specialization they have chosen. For example, if a school offers a TVL-SMAW, students will be immersed to
welding shops for them to see the reality of SMAW industry. Through this, a student can learn things that not
learnt by reading books and classroom discussion inside the four corners of the classroom. Hands-on activities
related to a particular specialization contributes to the holistic learning of a student.

However, there are considerations and challenges to be observed especially during this time of pandemic.
Immersion students must observe proper health protocols. Wearing of facemasks, social distancing and the like
are part of the standards in having work immersion.

Purpose

Teachers can teach students the principles related to their specialization. However, students must be
immersed to other institutions or industry. With this, the teacher will be able to:

 Measure the level of competence among students

 Identify the students with difficulties in the immersion field
 Formulate/ Create an enhancement program as a technical support among students in their
specialization
