MODULE1_LESSON1
Lesson Knowing Oneself
1

Adolescence is one of the most important stages in one’s development. In this


stage, a person explores his/her preferences, qualities, talents and as well as one’s
limitations. It is essential that one discovers these things about himself/herself to
make way for the foundation of one’s identity. Establishing one’s identity is essential
for the transition to the next developmental stage.

Some of the most important concepts that you need to familiarize yourself
with in this module are the following:

1. Self-Concept
The self-concept is a general term used to refer to how someone thinks
about, evaluates or perceives themselves. To be aware of oneself is to have
a concept of oneself.
2. Self -Awareness
Self-awareness is the ability to identify own strength, values and
preferences. It helps us to understand our own emotions, thoughts and
insight.
3. Ideal Self
This is the person who we would like to be. It consists of our goals and
ambitions in life, and is dynamic—forever changing.
4. Actual Self
Refers to who you actually are.
5. Self-Esteem
Self-esteem is your overall opinion of yourself — how you feel about your
abilities and limitations.

Knowing Oneself is the first step toward self-development. This will allow you to
unlock your skills and potentials.
What’s on your mind?

Directions: What can you see in the picture? Write a


paragraph based on the picture in relation to the topic
Knowing and understanding oneself.

Developing the Whole Person
2.1
Presently, you are in the process of puberty a period where there is a rapid
physical maturation and bodily changes. Human life is complex and it consists of
many different facets. During this time, teens will see different of changes in their
physical, psychological, cognitive and spiritual aspect. Adolescence is a time for
growth spurts and puberty changes. The whole person concept was introduced by a
philosopher named Dr. Mortimer J. Adler which confronts us to struggle a proper
balance in all aspects of our lives ---demands a significant investment in time with
family and friends, inspiring our lives, growing in our spiritual aspect and becoming
all that we can be. As its framework, developing yourself is learning to balance your
work, your lives, and your successes.

Puberty is a period of rapid physical maturation involving hormonal and bodily


changes. It takes primarily in early adolescence between 9 to 16 years of age for most
individuals, environmental factors can also influence its onset and duration
(Vanderberg & Boomsa, 2007). Adolescence is a stage in life that deals with many
changes and other aspects of life such as family, work or career, personal and social
relationships. Adolescence is the transitional stage from childhood to adulthood that
occurs between ages 13 and 19. The physical and psychological changes that take
place in adolescence often start earlier, during the preteen or "tween" years: ages 9
and 12.

There are three major stages of development occurs in an individual. These


are: Physical, cognitive and psychosocial.

Physical development. It relates to the growth and skill development of the body,
including the brain, muscles, and senses. Differences in physical growth are
apparent from everyday observations of people around us. (Cicarelli & White, 2012);
Papalia, 2010)

Cognitive development. It is a field of study in neuroscience and psychology


focusing on a child's development in terms of information processing, conceptual
resources, perceptual skill, language learning, and other aspects of the developed
adult brain. As their cognitive capacity advances, they begin to think abstractly,
reason logically, think possibilities, and impossibilities about life (Cicarelli, 2012).

Psychosocial development. For a concept to be psychosocial means it relates to


one’s psychological development in, and interaction with, a social environment.
Involving both psychological and social aspects in human development. Erik
Erikson’s theory of psychosocial development is one of the best known theories of
personality in psychology. He believed that personality develops in a series of stages.
Erikson’s theory describes the impact of social experience across the whole lifespan.
Adolescence is also a period for developing independence (Cicarelli, 2012).
Adolescents may be separated with their parents especially when they are searching
for their identity (Papalia, 2012).

of life.
PHYSIOLOGICAL DEVELOPMENT
Physical health is defined as the condition of your body, taking into
consideration everything from the absence of disease to fitness level.
Physical health is critical for overall well-being and can be affected by:
• Lifestyle: diet, level of physical activity, and behavior (eating
unhealthy foods);
• Human biology: a person’s genetics and physiology may make it easier
or harder to achieve good physical health;
• Environment: our surroundings and exposure to factors such as
sunlight or toxic substances; and
• Healthcare service: good healthcare can help prevent illness, as well as
to detect and treat illness.
It is important to take care of your body. Live healthy, eat healthy
foods, get enough sleep, exercise regularly, and avoid drugs and alcohol.
Manage stress and go for regular medical check-ups. Practice good hygiene.

Self-check. Ask yourself regarding your Physiological Development.


1. How healthy is your physical body?
2. Does it get enough rest and sleep?
3. Is it given nutritional food and sufficient water to help the
physiological system do its functions more optimally?
4. What aches and pains does your body suffer?
5. When was your last medical check-up?
6. What are the common illnesses in your family?

7. If you look into generations before, what sickness plagued
your ancestors?
8. In the pandemic crisis, do you consider yourself safe from such
viruses and diseases?
EMOTIONAL DEVELOPMENT
Emotional health is an important part of overall health. Emotionally
healthy people are in control of their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. They
can cope with life’s challenges. Emotions are responses that generate
biochemical reactions in our bodies, changing the physical state.

There are many ways to improve or maintain good emotional health.


• Be aware of your emotions and reactions. Notice what in your life
makes you sad, frustrated, or angry. Try to address or change those things.
• Think before you act. Emotions can be powerful. Give yourself time to
think, and be calm before you say or do something you might regret.
• Manage stress. Try to change situations, causing you stress.
Learn relaxation methods to cope with stress.
• Strive for balance. Find a healthy balance between work and
play and between activity and rest. Make time for things you enjoy.
Focus on positive things in your life.
• Take care of your physical health. Your physical health can
affect your emotional health. Exercise regularly, eat healthy meals
and get enough sleep. Do not abuse drugs or alcohol.
• Connect with others. We are social creatures. We need positive
connections with other people.

Self-check. Ask yourself regarding your Emotional Development:


Your own experiences when you are :
happy sad afraid
surprised angry disgusted

SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT
Social Development refers to how people develop social and
emotional skills across the lifespan, with particular attention to childhood
and adolescence. Healthy social development allows us to form positive
relationships with family, friends, teachers, and other people in our lives.
As a person develop and perceive its individuality within a community,
he/she also gains skills to communicate with other people and process
his/her actions. Social development most often refers to how a person
develops friendships and other relationships and how a person handles
conflict with peers.

Why is social development important?


Social development can impact many other forms of
development a person experiences. Healthy social development allows us to
form positive relationships with family, friends, teachers, and other people.

Healthy social development can help you:


• Develop Communication Skills. An ability to interact with others
allows for more opportunities to practice communications skills
• Build self-esteem. When a person is unable to make friends,
it can be frustrating or even painful. A good circle of friends
reinforces a person’s comfort level with her individuality.

14 (DO_Q1_PERSONALDEVELOPMENT

MODULE1_LESSON2.1
• Strengthen learning skills. Studies show that children who have a hard
time getting along with classmates as early as a preschool are more likely
to experience later academic difficulties.
• Resolve conflicts. Stronger self-esteem and better language
skills can ultimately lead to a better ability to resolve differences with
peers.
• Establish a positive attitude. A positive attitude ultimately leads to
better relationships with others and higher levels of self-confidence.

Self-check. Ask yourself regarding your Emotional Development


1. How is your relationship with your parents?
2. Do you consider yourself as friendly? Why?
3. How do you interact with other people? Are you outgoing?
4. Do you feel belongingness in your family, school, peers?

COGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT
Cognitive development means how people think, explore, and figure
things out. It is the development of knowledge, skills, problem-solving,
and dispositions, which helps a person to think about and understand
the world around them. Brain development is part of cognitive
development. This aspect of the self is enhanced when one attends school
to study and learn or engages in other mental endeavors.
Mental abilities are developed by engaging in intellectual pursuits
such as studies, work, and figuring out how best to deal with
challenges—thinking, planning, organizing, evaluating, and maximizing
cognitive abilities. The more we study, the more we learn; while the more we
learn, the more we can study better.

Self-check. Ask yourself regarding your Cognitive Development


1. Have you experienced mistakes in the choices you made? How do you deal
with these situations?
2. What is your attitude towards your study habits?
3. Are you doing well in your studies?

SPIRITUAL DEVELOPMENT
Spiritual development is defined as discovering oneself beyond
the ego known as the soul, spirit, or the “inner essence” that is often
disregarded or taken for granted (Llaneza-Ramos, 2017). It is when one
experiences a glimpse of the “inner guide” of one’s beliefs and values as
one discovers the meaning of life. It also allows people to connect with a
Higher Power that is called by many names like "God, Buddha, Allah.”
“We are Christians, we are committed to the poor, we value people, we
are partners, and are responsive.” As we grow spiritually, our attitude
toward life also changes for the better in many ways. Most of our
problems stem from our perceptions and expectations of ourselves and
of the world. One will realize that this solves half the problems
of our life. Spiritual growth and development help us to imbibe
humility. Spirituality and inner peace is a way of life. It helps us to
develop great strength and courage. Spiritual growth and development
help to make human beings better citizens.

Self-check. Ask yourself regarding your Spiritual Development


1. How can you tell that you believe in “God”?
2. What are the things you do that manifest your spiritual development?

Lesson Connecting Thoughts, Feelings, and
2.2 Behaviors for Evaluating One’s Self

Personality - refers to the long-standing traits and patterns that propel individuals
to consistently think, feel, and behave in specific ways. Our personality is what
makes us unique individuals. Each person has an idiosyncratic pattern of enduring,
long- term characteristics, and a manner in which he or she interacts
with other individuals and the world around them. How do we evaluate ourselves?
What are the factors that determine our personality? What makes us
unique? Does our environment affect how we think and behave?
Thoughts, Feelings, and Behavior
The only things we can control in life are our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. If
we can manage those, we can achieve our goals and gain success in life.
To have this level of control, we need to learn about the science-based patterns
behind our emotions and thoughts and manage them. If we know how our minds
work, we can be intentional about influencing our thinking and feeling patterns. We
can evaluate reality more clearly, make better decisions, and improve our ability to
achieve our goals. Thus, we gain greater agency and the quality of living
intentionally. How do our minds work? Intuitively, our mind feels like a cohesive
whole.
We have many small stresses (and big stresses) that are not life-threatening, but the
autopilot system treats them like tigers. This produces
an unnecessarily stressful everyday life experience that undermines our mental and
physical well-being. Moreover, while the snap judgments resulting from intuitions
and emotions might feel real because they are fast and powerful, they sometimes
lead us in the wrong, in systemic and predictable ways.
Activity 3: Personal Reflection
Directions: Create a diagram “About Myself “ using the Five Areas of Personality
Development. This will be your “Personal Reflection”. You can create your own style
of diagram. Write your name at the center of the diagram.

My Personal Timeline
A personal timeline portrays the influential events and happenings in a
person’s life so that he can understand where he has gone wrong and right in the
past. It helps in planning the future in a better constructive way.

24 (DO_Q1_PERSONALDEVELOPMENT

MODULE1_LESSON1
MODULE1_LESSON3
Procedures:
1. Using a bond paper, write the major events that happened in your life and the
significant people that made an impact in your life in a specific year. You may
add your age, specific dates and places.
2. You may draw the timeline
horizontally, vertically,
diagonally or even using ups
and down depending on your
imagination. Be creative in your
representations.
3. You may also use symbols,
figures, drawings, color it using
coloring materials or whatever
is appealing to the eyes.
4. Think of your own title for your
personal timeline.
5. The following image is a guide
or sample of a personal
timeline.
https://www.artskills.com/gallery/poster-
categories/history-social-studies/my-timeline

Answer the following questions on your notebook after the activity:


1. Based on your timeline of events, who are the most significant people in your
life? How do they contribute to your development as a person?
2. Can you identify any “turning points” or significant moment when something
begins to change in your timeline?
3. In your timeline, is there an event that involves your decision? What is it? How
does this decision affect or even change your life?
4. What is the importance of successfully accomplishing the task that is expected
from you in the different stages of your life?
5. Continue to your future, where do you want to be in a year, 5 years, 10 years?
What do you expect your future timeline will be?

The Importance of Personal Timeline


The goal of having a personal timeline deepens your awareness, more
specifically, to develop your capacity to consciously observe how past experiences
shape the present, and additionally, to appreciate the value of past events, even
negative ones, in strengthening who you are today. It is essential to the
developmental stages because development is continuous throughout your lifespan.
It is where you move from one stage to the next by means of successful solving of
problems or performance of developmental tasks.
Robert J. Havighurst’s Developmental Task
Havighurst elaborated that development is continuous throughout the entire
lifespan and occurring in stages, where the individual moves from one stage to the

25 (DO_Q1_PERSONALDEVELOPMENT
(DO_Q1_PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT11
11
MODULE1_LESSON1
MODULE1_LESSON3
next by means of successful resolution of problems or performance of developmental
tasks. According to Havighurst’s developmental task theory, when people
successfully accomplish the developmental task at a stage, they feel pride and
satisfaction. They also earn the approval of their community or society. This success
provides a sound foundation that allows these people to accomplish the
developmental task that they will encounter at later developmental stages.
When people fail to accomplish a developmental task, they’re often unhappy
and are not granted the desired approval by society. This results in the following
experiences of difficulty when faced with succeeding developmental tasks at
developmental stages.
For you to know the different developmental task by Havighurst, go to this video and
watch the lesson presented: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lG9NGiy1ud0

Lesson Ways to become a responsible
4.1 adolescent

Becoming responsible and being able to make good choices are very important
traits no matter what developmental stage you are in. It holds true for adolescents
especially that they are just beginning to internalize and imbibe virtues, values, and
other essential qualities.
It may not be easy to be a teenager. There may be lots of things going on in
various facets of your lives. The demands and expectations of your parents and other
people around you can also be stressful. But the good news is, you can treat these
‘difficulties’ as ‘challenges’ which can make your life exciting. Having that mindset is
also an indication of becoming a responsible and mentally mature adolescent.

The following are eight (8) simple rules which could help you, teenagers, to
become a responsible adolescent prepared for adult life:
1. Focus on your studies and do well in all of your endeavors. There is time for
everything.
2. Take care of your health and hygiene. Healthy body and mind are important
as you journey through adolescence.
3. Establish good communication and relation with your parents or guardian.
Listen to them. This may be easier said than done at this stage, but creating good
relationship with them will do you good as they are the ones you can lean on
especially in times of trouble.
4. Think a lot before doing something. Evaluate probable consequences before
acting. Practice self-control and self-discipline.
5. Choose to do the right thing. There are plenty of situations in which it is better
to use your mind rather than your heart.
6. Do your best to resist temptations, bad acts, and earthly pleasures and
commit to being a responsible adolescent.
7. Respect yourself. You are an adult in the making. Do not let your teenage
hormones get into you. If you respect yourself, others will respect you too.
8. Be prepared to be answerable or accountable for your actions and behavior.
It is a part of growing up and becoming an adult.

Having good mental health and psychological well-being will lead you to a

Good mental health and well-being is not an on-off experience. We can
all have days, weeks or months where we feel resilient, strong and optimistic,
regardless of events or situations. Often that can be mixed with or shift to a very
different set of thoughts, feelings and behaviours; or not feeling resilient and
optimistic in just one or two areas of our life. For about twenty-five per cent of us,
that may shift to having a significant impact on how we think, feel and act in many
parts of our lives, including relationships, experiences at work, sense of connection
to peer groups and our personal sense of worth, physical health and motivation.

Understanding Mental Health
4.2
Mental health is a positive concept related to the social and emotional
wellbeing of people and communities. The concept relates to the enjoyment of life,
ability to cope with stress and sadness, the fulfilment of goals and potential, and a
sense of connection to others. Mental health is about wellness rather than illness
and is not merely the absence of a mental health condition

It is an integral and essential component of health. The WHO constitution


states: "Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not
merely the absence of disease or infirmity." An important implication of this definition
is that mental health is more than just the absence of mental disorders or disabilities.

Mental health is fundamental to our collective and individual ability as


humans to think, emote, interact with each other, earn a living and enjoy life. On
this basis, the promotion, protection and restoration of mental health can be
regarded as a vital concern of individuals, communities and societies throughout the
world.

Processing questions:
1. As you recall your daily routine and activities, which practices do you think
help you develop a good mental health?
2. How does your problems and down times in life affects the state of your mental
health?

Having a positive mindset is an indication of becoming a responsible and


mentally mature adolescent. Problems, stressors, and challenges are inevitable, but
you can make a stand to secure and protect your mental health.

Directions: Review your answers in the previous activity. Focus on the factors
that cause you to experience negative emotions that trigger your mental health
problems. After reviewing your answers, create plans in promoting a stress-free and

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), Mental Health is a state
of well-being in which an individual realizes his/her abilities, can cope with the
normal stresses of life, can work productively, and is able to make a contribution to
his or her community. Having a healthy mind is just as important as having a
physically fit body. Just as a person needs to exercise to have a healthy body, one
must also have a routine to maintain a positive mental health.

STRESS SIGNALS

Processing questions:
1. How much stress do you think you are currently under?
2. What do you think is the cause of your stress(stressor)?
3. In what ways can you eliminate if not, lessen your stress?

Dictionary definitions do not quite capture the meaning of stress as it is seen


and experienced in the world of work. One of the Webster’s definitions describes it
as an “...emotional factor that causes bodily or mental tension.”

A practical way of defining stress is the feeling one gets from prolonged, pent-
up emotions. If the emotions you experience are pleasant and desirable – joy, elation,
ecstasy, delight – you usually feel free to let them show. They are not suppressed.
Therefore; positive emotions do not usually cause stress. Negative emotions, on the
other hand, are more often held inside. They are hidden. You suffer quietly and you
experience stress. Do not confuse positive situations with positive emotions. A
wedding, for example, is a positive situation that often brings about the negative
emotions of anxiety and tension. So stress can exist in great situations.

Causes and Effects of Stress

Just as there is great variety in the range of emotions you might experience,
there are many possible manifestations of stress – in your private life and in your
working life. Here are some words that describe the emotions associated (as cause
and effect) with stress.
∙ Anxiety ∙ Tension
∙ Pressure ∙ Anger
∙ Misery ∙ Panic
∙ Strain ∙ Dejection
∙ Desperation

Prolonged stress can be devastating; burnout, breakdown, and depression


are some of the potential results of long-term, unmanaged stress. By wearing a
mask, you may expect to hide stress caused by problems in your personal life and
not let them influence your performance on the job. This will probably not work.
The more you try to hold your emotions in, the greater the pressure build-up will
be.

Do you ever wonder why there are people who were born artistic than others?
Or why others have Math skills superior than others? This could be attributed to the
works of Roger W. Sperry in 1960’s where his research focused on the Left and the
Right Brain Theory. According to his study, the brain is divided into two
hemispheres, the left and the right brain. The left brain is the logical part of the mind,
where computations, linear thinking and evaluation are attributed. While, the right
brain serves as the creative source where abstract thinking, free flowing emotions
and intuition flow.

It is amazing how the human brain develops and changes throughout one’s
life. There are remarkable changes in the brain that influence the development of an
individual from infancy to adulthood. The brain of an adolescent is different from
that of an adult. The brain undergoes major transitions as it is a “work in progress.”
The human brain can be compared with the CPU (Central Processing Unit) and
memory of a computer. Since the brain like the CPU, serves as a processor in every
activity of a person. It can also be compared with the memory of the computer for
the reason that our brain is responsible for storing valuable information that we
acquire in our day to day lives.

“What’s in your Brain?”


During the current pandemic, families have been thrust into
extraordinary circumstances that may be life-changing, with short- and
long-term effects on adolescents well-being. Helping them learn to be smart
about feelings can help alleviate their emotional stress, improve concentration,
boost their immune system, and enhance brain development. Inside the brain
below, list the things you think about the most during this times of pandemic.
The adolescent’s years are a time of extreme brain changes. Curiously, two
of the primary brain functions mature at different rates. Recent brain study
indicates that the part of the brain that recognize rewards from risk, the
limbic system, develops at a fast rate early adolescence. The section of the
brain that regulates impulses and employs long term perspective, the frontal
lobes, develops later. This explains why teenagers in mid-adolescence take more
risks than older teenagers. As the frontal lobes become more developed two
things happen. First, self-control improves as adolescence become more capable
of judging cause and effect. Second, more sections of the brain become involved
in managing emotions and teenagers become better at understanding other
emotions.

Brainpower: complex organ controls your every thought and move


The Power to Act
Let us understand the human brain. The human brain has puzzled
people throughout the ages. Some scientists have devoted their entire
lives studying how the brain works. The brain is a very complex organ

57 (DO_Q1_PERSONALDEVELOPMENT
(DO_Q1_PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT1111
MODULE1_LESSON1
MODULE1_LESSON6
made-up of mutually dependent parts, each with it’s precise purpose. The
brain is the fattest organ in the body consist of at least 60 percent fat. It has
three important sections the forebrain, midbrain, and the hind brain.
The Forebrain Structures
The two hemispheres of the cerebral cortex are part of the forebrain which
is the largest part of the brain. The forebrain contains the cerebral cortex and
several other structures that lie beneath the cortex (called subcortical structures):
thalamus, hypothalamus, pituitary gland, and the limbic system (collection of
structures). The cerebral cortex, which is the outer surface of the brain, is associated
with higher level processes such as consciousness, thought, emotion,
reasoning, language, and memory. Each cerebral hemisphere can be
subdivided into four lobes, each associated with different functions. These
hemispheres are composed of four sections called lobes.
The four lobes of the brain are the frontal, parietal, temporal, and occipital
lobes.
1. Frontal lobe- located in the forward part of the brain, extending back to
a fissure known as the central sulcus. The frontal lobe is
involved in reasoning, motor control, emotion, and language. It contains
the motor cortex, which is involved in planning and coordinating
movement; the prefrontal cortex, which is responsible for higher-level
cognitive functioning; and Broca’s area, which is essential for language
production.
2. Parietal lobe- located immediately behind the frontal lobe and is involved
in processing information from the body’s senses. It contains the
somatosensory cortex, which is essential for processing sensory information
from across the body, such as touch, temperature, and pain.
3. Temporal lobe- located on the side of the head (temporal means “near
the temples”), and is associated with hearing, memory, emotion, and some
aspects of language. The auditory cortex, the main area responsible for
processing auditory information, is located within the temporal lobe.
Wernicke’s area, important for speech comprehension, is also located here.
4. Occipital lobe- located at the very back of the brain, and contains the
primary visual cortex, which is responsible for interpreting incoming visual
information.
• The Limbic System
Emotion involves the entire nervous system, of course. But
there are two parts of the nervous system that are especially
significant: the limbic system and the autonomic nervous system. It regulates
temperature, heart rate, blood pressure and blood sugar. Its parts,
Hippocampus, and Amygdala assist from memories. It is the center of emotions.
Nerve impulses to the Amygdala activate the emotions of anger, fear, aggression,
reward, and attraction. These emotions stimulate the hypothalamus which
controls blood pressure and body temperature.

• The Midbrain Structures

Midbrain, also called mesencephalon, region of the developing


vertebrate brain that is composed of the tectum and tegmentum. The midbrain
serves important functions in motor movement, particularly movements of the
eye, and in auditory and visual processing. It is located within the
brainstem and between the two other developmental regions of the brain, the
forebrain and the hindbrain; compared with those regions, the midbrain is relatively
small.

• The Hindbrain Structures

Hindbrain, also called rhombencephalon, region of the developing


vertebrate brain that is composed of the medulla oblongata, the pons, and
the cerebellum. The hindbrain coordinates functions that are fundamental
to survival, including respiratory rhythm, motor activity, sleep,
and wakefulness. It is one of the three major developmental
divisions of the brain; the other two are the midbrain and forebrain

Left-Brain/Right-Brain Test
"There is a foolish corner in the brain of the wisest man."- Aristotle
We go through life attached to a lot of personality-related labels - introverted,
optimistic, strong but silent, drama queen, etc. But left-brain or right-brain?
These are not so well-known. Interestingly however, whether it is our left
hemisphere that is more dominant or our right one, the distinction can impact
our personality and the decisions we make. For example, left-brain people
are more organized and systematic. Right-brain people are more creative and
intuitive. So which side of your brain do you wake up on in the morning? Find out
with this test.

Directions: Which Side Are You On? Circle either “A” or “B” that most
accurately describes you. Write your answers on a separate sheet of paper.

1. A. At home, my room has organized drawer and closets. I even try to organize other
things around the house.
B. At home, I like the "lived-in" look. I clean as I see a need and when I

Lesson
Power of the Mind
7.1
In this module, you will be made to realize how important and powerful the
human mind is. It is amazing how the human brain develops and changes in the
brain that influence your development. Just like a weightlifter or a basketball player,
to be a brain athlete, you have to exercise and practice. By practicing, you make your
brain stronger.

You also learn skills that let you use your brain in a smarter way—just like a
basketball player learns new moves. But many people miss out on the chance to grow
a stronger brain because they think they can’t do it, or that it’s too hard. It does take
work, just like becoming stronger physically or becoming a better ball player does.
Sometimes it even hurts! But when you feel yourself get better and stronger, all the
work is worth it!

In the previous module, you discussed the different parts of the human brain and its
function. Answer the following questions as a review of what you have learned about
human brain.
1. How does the left and right brain hemispheres help in improving learning?
Describe its differences.
2. Explain the mind mapping techniques. How does it improve learning?

Notes to the Teacher


Before you proceed to the next activity, ask students if there is something
that they may want to ask or the question that left on their mind?

How human brain works


The human brain is an intricate organ. At approximately 3 pounds, it contains about
100 billion neurons and 100 trillion connections. Your brain is command central of
all you think, feel, and do. Your brain is divided into two halves, or hemispheres.
Within each half, particular regions control certain functions.
Different parts of your brain are connected by nerve fibers. If a brain injury severed
the connection between sides, you could still function. But the lack of integration
would cause some impairment.
The human brain is constantly reorganizing itself. It’s adaptable to change, whether
it’s physical or through life experience. It’s tailor-made for learning.
Tips for keeping your brain sharp

• Spend some time each day reading, writing, or both.


• Never stop learning. Take a class, go to a lecture, or try to acquire a new skill.
• Tackle challenging crossword and sudoku puzzles.
• Play memory games, board games, card games, or video games.
• Take on a new hobby that requires you to focus.

What is Emotional Intelligence?
Emotional Intelligence is sometimes called EQ for short. Just as a high IQ can predict
top test scores, a high EQ can predict success in social and emotional situations. EQ helps
us build strong relationships, make good decisions, and deal with difficult situations. One
way to think about EQ is that it's part of being people-smart. Understanding and getting
along with people helps us be successful in almost any area of life. In fact, some studies show
that EQ is more important than IQ when it comes to doing well in school or being successful
at work. (Source: Department of Education (2016). Personal Development Reader’s Guide.

Robert Plutchik Wheel of Emotions
Psychologist Robert Plutchik states that there are 8 basic emotions: joy, trust,
fear, surprise, sadness, anticipation, anger, and disgust. Plutchik’s wheel of
emotions illustrates these 8 basic emotions and the various ways they relate to one
another, including which ones are opposites and which ones can easily turn into
another one. This framework helps bring clarity to emotions, which can sometimes
feel mysterious and overwhelming.
Interpreting Wheel of Emotions:
• Joy is the opposite of sadness.
• Fear is the opposite of anger.
• Anticipation is the opposite of surprise.
• Disgust is the opposite of trust.

Like the colors of the spectrum, basic emotions can be expressed at varying
intensities and can blend with one another to produce different emotions (De
Guzman & Nicolas, 2016)

Lesson
Positive and Negative Emotions
8.1
Different types of emotions seem to rule our daily lives. We make decisions
based on whether we are happy, angry, sad, bored, or frustrated. We choose activities
and hobbies based on the emotions they incite. Understanding emotions can help us
navigate life with greater ease and stability.
Some emotions are positive. Think of happiness, joy, interest, curiosity,
excitement, gratitude, love, and contentment. These positive emotions feel good.
Negative emotions — like sadness, anger, loneliness, jealousy, self-criticism, fear, or
rejection — can be difficult, even painful at times. That's especially true when we feel
a negative emotion too often, too strongly, or we dwell on it too long.

Emotion Management Skills
8.2

The ability to realize, readily accept, as well as successfully control feelings in


oneself (and sometimes others) is known as the emotion management skill. Very
simply, emotion management skills refer to the ability to master your own emotions.
For developing emotion management skills, being open to one’s thoughts and
feelings is not enough. You must have complete authority over changing your
thoughts and feelings that are generated whenever your values are touched by the
actions of a person or an event. This is important because the change in your
thoughts and feelings is what helps change your emotions, preventing from reactive
outbursts.
Positive Actions to Help you Manage Emotions:
There are a number of actions that you can take that will help you to manage your
emotions. Many of them are very general, but try them because you may just find
that they work.
● Exercise: this releases reward and pleasure chemicals in the brain such as
dopamine, which makes you feel better.
● Be kind to others, because this helps stop you worrying about yourself.
● Be open and accept what is going on around you.
● It’s good to talk. Spend time with other people and enjoy their company.
● Don’t give in to negative thinking.
● Spend time outside.
● Be grateful.
● Play to your strengths.
● Notice the good things in your life.

The ability to realize, readily accept, as well as successfully control of feelings


in oneself and sometimes others is known as the emotion management skill. Emotion
management skills refer to the ability to master your own emotions. How you respond
to different kind of situations play a vital role in emotional management.
● Passive response: Behaving passively means not expressing your own needs
and feelings, or expressing them so weakly that they will not be addressed.
● Aggressive response: Behaving aggressively is asking for what you want or
saying how you feel in a threatening, sarcastic or humiliating way that may
offend the other person/s.

81 (DO_Q1_PERSONALDEVELOPMENT
(DO_Q1_PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT11

MODULE1_LESSON1
MODULE1_LESSON8.2
● Assertive response: Behaving assertively means asking for what you want or
saying how you feel in an honest and respectful way that does not infringe on
another person's rights or put the individual down.
● An assertive response is almost always in your best interest, since it is your
best chance of getting what you want without offending the other person(s).

Processing Questions:
Assertiveness is the ability to express your wishes and beliefs in a positive way. Too
little assertiveness can make you a doormat (a person who allows people to treat
them badly or walk all over them). Too much assertiveness, and you can be bossy
and aggressive.
