Topic: USE OF TEACHER AND LEARNER FEEDBACK TO ENRICH TEACHING PRACTICE

Insights or Realizations
(Insights or realizations gained from the facilitator, mentor, or coach regarding new
concepts learned and known concepts that were more understood)

A. A totally new concept

During the LAC session on the use of teacher and learner feedback to enrich teaching
practice, I was introduced to the concept of utilizing learner feedback as a valuable tool
for improving my teaching. This idea was completely new to me, and it opened my
eyes to the immense potential for growth and development that can come from actively
seeking and incorporating feedback from my students.

B. A familiar concept but learned something new

While the concept of using teacher feedback was familiar to me, I gained a deeper
understanding of its significance during the LAC session. I realized that effective
teaching practices are not solely based on my own knowledge and experience but also
on continuously seeking input from my colleagues and incorporating their perspectives
into my teaching approach.

Lessons Learned
(personal experiences of how the strategy) or not in his/her class)

A. Easy points (what was easy to learn or apply to learners and why)
One aspect that was easy for me to learn and apply to learners was the importance of
creating a safe and open environment for feedback. By fostering a supportive classroom
culture, my students felt comfortable providing honest feedback, enabling me to gain
 valuable insights into their learning experiences. This allowed me to make informed
instructional decisions and tailor my teaching to better meet their needs.

B. Challenging points (what difficult to learn or apply to learners and why)

One challenging aspect was learning how to navigate constructive criticism and using it
as an opportunity for growth. Initially, I found it difficult to detach myself from
personal feelings and view feedback as a means for professional improvement.
However, through the LAC session, I learned strategies for embracing feedback,
reflecting on it objectively, and implementing necessary changes in my teaching
practice.

Next Course of Action

(what to do next to address challenges encountered)

Based on the LAC session, my next course of action is to actively implement and
integrate teacher and learner feedback into my daily teaching practice. I plan to create
structured opportunities for students to provide feedback, such as anonymous class
discussions, and ensure that their voices are heard and valued. Additionally, I will seek
regular input from my colleagues and actively engage in professional learning
communities to exchange feedback and ideas. By continuously incorporating feedback,
I aim to refine and enhance my teaching practice, ultimately improving the learning
experience for my students.
