& Title Module 1: Learners Behavior

Module Overview Hello Students!

In this module, you are given the opportunity to observe

learners of different ages and grade levels. It highlights the
differences in their behaviors and needs. As a future teacher, it is
important for you to determine the learner’s behavior so that you will
be able to manage the learner's teaching-learning process in a
manner that reinforces learning. You will be able to use a system of
rewards and punishments, or skillfully form lesson plans that involve
the students and help them learn effectively.

Module
Objectives/Outcomes
By the end of the module, you will have compiled a portfolio of
learning theories and possible classroom applications for those
theories and you will have an understanding of the physical, social,
emotional and intellectual development of students and how to use
this understanding to guide learning experience.

Time Frame:
Introduction:
Hello Students,
Welcome to Lesson 1. In this lesson, you are expected to observe learners and how they
behave in a class environment. You must look into the different aspects considered and document
your observations on the tables provided. In order to process your feelings and thoughts together
with linking it to practice, series of questions and situations are provided for you to answer.
Happy Learning!
Objectives:
I must be able to identify and understand the behavior of learners in different aspects and
how these imply to the teaching and learning process.

ACTIVITY
Observation Guide for the Learner's Social Behavior
Instructions:
1. Observe three students from your class for a while and look into the behavior of the
learners.
2. Are they already able to manage their own behavior?
3. Can the learners already work independently?
4. Do they act appropriately with other learners? How about to their teacher?
5. You can ask for teacher's assistance for more detailed information.
6. Look into the different aspects and use the Activity sheet provided for you to document
your observations.
Please use the ratings 1 to 5 and comment further.
1 = always 2 = most of the time 3 = sometimes 4 = infrequently 5 = never

Here’s a quick review quiz to see how much you have learned about Social Learning Theory. The
questions are designed to get you thinking about how the theory applies to your classroom

behavior. Which of the following is missing from the above list?
