EMBEDDING ACTION
FS 2
RESEARCH FOR
REFLECTIVE TEACHING
Every teacher is an action researcher. Everyone can do it. Teachers and students
can do it together.
This episode focuses on doing action research as one of the roles of the teacher.
Every teacher should take interest to know how students learn, wants to make innovations
in the curriculum and desires to improve teaching practice. In order to achieve these, a
teacher has to do action research on the everyday practical problems. These problematic
situations and observed discrepancies emerge between what is intended and what actually
occurs in the classroom
There is a general agreement among action research community that action research
is about ACTION: taking action to improve practice and RESEARCH: finding things out and
coming to a new understanding that create new knowledge.
Action research is not new. It dates back to the time of John Dewey in 1920 when he
introduced the idea of inquiry. This was followed by Collier, 1945; Lewin, 1949; Corey, 1953
and many others who came later. Schon introduced the notion of action research as a habit
of continuing inquiry. Inquiry begins with situations that are problematic, confusing, uncertain
and conflicting, and so does Action Research.
It was Stephen Corey (1953) who defined Action Research as the process through
which practitioners like teachers, study their own practice to solve their personal or
professional practical problems. Further on, John Illiot in 1993 clarified that action research
is concerned with everyday practical problems experienced by the teachers, rather than the
theoretical problems defined by pure researchers.
Action research is grounded on the reality of the school, classroom, teachers and
students.
Sometime it is labelled as Teacher Action Research (TAR) but is popularly known
simply as Action Research (AR).
Action Research is a process that allows teachers to study their own classrooms,
schools and educational setting in order to understand them better and to improve their
quality and effectiveness. The processes of observation, reflection and inquiry lead to action
that makes a difference in teaching and learning. It bridges doing (practice) and learning
(study) and reflection (inquiry).
You must have experienced in your past subjects, doing some activities or accomplishing
tasks similar to an action research. These are activities that required you to do Reflection and
Make Action or the other way around. Schon (1987) distinguishes Reflection in Action or
Reflection on Action as two different things.
Perhaps your mentor teacher has already done an Action Research. Now is the opportunity
for you to participate and assist in ways that you are capable of doing.

Action research seems easy and familiar, since teaching seems to be full of problematic
Situations and that the teacher has a responsibility of finding solution for everyday problems in
school, hence teachers should do action research. This is an exciting part of being a teacher, a
problem solver!

UNDERSTANDING AR
FS 2
CONCEPTS, PROCESS
AND MODELS
The definition of action research evolved over time. There is no singular definition
of action research. Anchored on the idea of inquiry by John Dewey several other authors
have advanced the concept of action research. Action research is a type of inquiry that is:
• practical as it involves making changes to practice.
• theoretical as it is informed by theory and can generate new insights.
• concerned with change and improvement.
Action research has been embraced in education for its value in transforming school
practices by the practitioners themselves. It is used to address practical problems in the
classroom. It is a process that allows teachers to study their own Classroom and school
setting to improve their effectiveness. Teacher Action Research (TAR) is a method for
educational practitioners (teachers, school leaders) to engage in the assessment and
improvement of their own practice. It is a tool to help classroom teachers consider their
teaching methods or to adopt a strategy in order to solve everyday problem in the school
setting.
Here are some questions and answers that you need to know
1. What are the Core Characteristics of AR (Titchen, 2015)?
• Systematic - Like any form of research, it follows a system.
• Rigorous it has rigor, meaning a strict adherence to the rules of empirical studies.
• Reflective - It follows a continuous reflection and action.
• Situational it is more specific to the location (school) circumstances (teaching and
learning, etc.).
• Participative AR can be participative where teachers and learners are co-
researchers.
• Future-oriented - It seeks solution to the current problem for future improvement.
VI. COST ESTIMATES Action Research Cost- (Consider also the maximum cost if
externally
funded like DepEd, LGUs NGO or personal)
VIII.REFERENCES References
1. What reading materials and references are included in
my review of literature?
Both Action Research Processes above are supported by the two AR Models which will be

Observe followed by Reflect, Plan and Act which can also go through evaluation and
modification. It also follows a cyclical process B

ACTION
A group of more than six hundred teachers was surveyed and asked what teaching
learning problems confront them. Here are their answers put together in a wordle.
Study the wordle below. Each word represents an issue or a problem which was reported
by teachers in the field. Which of the words do you recognize as a problem? Draw a CIRCLE
around five words that you have also identified as problems in teaching-learning.
Each of the identified problem that you encircled has a corresponding action or solution.
Identified Action as
Problems Solution
What five problems have you identified from the words that you have encircled? Make a
statement. Write in the space below.

Excellent! Let us see how we can assist and learn at the same time.
Suppose, the problem you have spotted is: COMPREHENSION
How can you assist your mentor, after knowing that the learners have difficulty in
comprehension?
Suppose you chose letter A. Conduct a Tutorial. So you have identified the SOLUTION
that matches the PROBLEM which is Difficulty in Comprehension.
Can you also choose letter B: Show video lesson as a SOLUTION for the same
PROBLEM?
Explain ______________________________________
Interesting, isn’t it? Now, you can assist your mentor by identifying observe problems in the
class and suggest actions to be done.
NOTICE
What have you noticed of the problem identified above? Can there be more than one
solution to the problem? Explain
_______________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________
A creative and innovative teacher can find one or more than one solution or answer to the
same problem. Each solution matches with the problem. The more solutions identified to
choose from, the better for an action researcher.
ANALYZE
Let us try to look into the following scenarios in the daily life of a teacher. This scenario
might also be similar to the class you have observed and noticed.
Scenario A: Miss Fely is a grade four teacher in a typical elementary school. She has forty learners
in her class. One half of them cannot classify animals into vertebrates and invertebrates.
She has been repeating the same science lesson for two weeks, yet no progress was
observed. This situation has been bothering Miss Fely.
Scenario B: Sir Ryan teaches in a disadvantaged urban community. Most of his learners come
from families that are disrupted, either with single parents or with their guardians who stand
only as parents. They are deprived of the necessary food, clothing and shelter
• Can you identify the most probable teaching-learning problem/s in the class of
Sir Ryan?
a.
b.
• Can you propose a solution to solve one of the problems that you have
identified?

After reading the two scenarios given above, how would identifying problematic
situations and finding solutions to these problems help you to become a better teacher?

PREPARING THE
FS 2
LEARNING ENVIRONMENT:
AN OVERVIEW
The classroom climate nurtures the intellectual, physical, social and emotional
development of the students.
Here are some specific strategies for developing the optimal classroom climate. You may
consider these.
1. Learning environment addresses both physical and psychological needs of the students
for Security and order, love and belonging, personal power and competence, Freedom and
fun.
2. Create a sense of order. For example, teacher should teach students how to
• enter the classroom and become immediately engaged in the activity,
• distribute and collect materials
• find out about missed assignments due to absence and how to make up for
• them;
• get the teacher's attention without disrupting the class and
• arrange desks, tables quickly and quietly for various purposes.
4. In a healthy and conducive learning environment, everybody belongs and knows each
other.
Both approaches, either the traditional face-to-face or online, lead to positive results but in
different ways, so usually in practice both approaches are combined
What will you do to assist your mentor in setting up a conducive learning environment in the
following conditions:

ENHANCING A
FS 2
FACE-TO FACE
LEARNING
ENVIRONMENT
In a face-to-face classroom, students and the teacher are physically present. They meet
at a time set in the classroom. The teacher prepares activities, provides instruction and evaluates
students learning. Equipment and instructional materials are made available in the classroom
where teaching and learning take place most of the time
Some of the advantages of a face-to-face learning environment for the students are:
• less distraction and more concentration than when studying at home or
elsewhere;
• greater understanding and real world examples from teachers and classmates;
• greater chance of completing course work by doing it in the classroom space
• learn more easily and more comfortably in familiar, traditional classroom
situation;
Notice the physical arrangement found in two classroom spaces. Spot the
similarities and differences

• Is the space inside the room more than enough for learners to move about?
• Does the room arrangement match with teaching-learning principles? Are there several
room arrangements in the school?
• Are the visual displays attractive and do they stimulate learning?
• Are the school premises safe and is the classroom space free from hazards?
• Are learners comfortable in terms of light and ventilation?
Psychological Environment
• Are there sets of rules and procedures followed? What are these?
• Are there sets of expectations that can motivate the learners to learn?
Social Environment
• Are there opportunities for positive interaction inside the classroom?
• Are there outdoor activities that foster friendship, camaraderie and cooperation?
• How are individual needs and differences considered?

ESTABLISHING MY OWN
CLASSROOM ROUTINES
FS 2
AND PROCEDURE IN
FACE-TO-FACE
/REMOTE LEARNING
Routines are the backbone of daily classroom life. They facilitate teaching and learning.
Routines don't just make the life of the teacher easier. They save valuable classroom time.
Efficient routines make it easier for students to learn and achieve more. Establishing routines
early in the school year enables you to run your daily activities run smoothly; ensures that you
manage time effectively; helps you maintain order in the classroom; makes you more focused in
teaching because you spend less time in giving directions/instructions; and enables you to explain
to the learners what are expected of them.
Classroom routines set the foundation for a meaningful school year with teachers and
students whether in the classroom or remotely. To teach classroom routines remotely, it is best
to record videos and to post these in the learning management system so students may watch
them over and over again for better retention and for families to view them so they can assist their
children when needed.
Students can take an active role in establishing classroom routines. They can brainstorm
on ideas which they will most likely do and follow. Routines are important especially when done
in remote learning so that there will be less distractions both for synchronous and asynchronous
participation.

LEARNING
MANAGEMENT PLAN
A classroom management plan is a plan that a teacher designs that sets the expectations
for every student. The purpose of a classroom management plan 1s to make the students
accountable for their actions. Effective classroom management increases students" success,
enhances students’ academic skills and competencies and promotes social and emotional
development.
The teaching-learning process may be implemented in various modalities. Teachers must
bear in mind that alternatives and other options may be considered in designing the classroom
remote management plan.
A good learning environment produces highly engaged students who learn more, do more
and work more. Teachers likewise become more creative and productive in their work.
Key Elements for Effective Classroom Management
1 Classroom Design: This refers to seating arrangement, bulletin boards, display, storage area,
equipment, supplies etc.
2. Rules: These are the expectations set at the beginning of the class to foster love, care, respect
and sense of community in the class.
3. Discipline: Classroom rules must define the consequences of every action/misdemeanor in class.
This will ensure fairness and consistency in dealing with the students. This also includes the
rewards given for good behavior.
4. Scheduling: This includes time allotment given for each period and activity in class.
This will make the students to stay on time and on task.
5. Organization. This refers to the systematic arrangement of files and records and keeping them
organized always and ready for use.
6. Instructional Techniques: These are ways by which you implement your learning content.
Tailoring your techniques to the subject, grade levels and nature of the learner is really important.
7 Communication: Consistent open lines of communication to all the stakeholders of the school
community will lead to better teacher-student teacher relationship.

for-effective-classroom-management
In order to implement these elements effectively, a classroom management plan must be designed.
Each teacher has its own unique style of management to meet class needs, although the same elements
are found consistently. In order for a classroom management plan to be successful, the students must
have a complete understanding of each of the guidelines. At the same time, teachers must follow their
plan to ensure that the learning environment is safe, friendly, secured and non-threatening whether in the
classroom or in remote learning.
Classroom Structure, Design and How will you design your classroom to create an
Arrangement appropriate learning environment?
These are the steps in creating your classroom/ remote learning Management Plan
After realizing the different elements and steps of a classroom/remote management plan,
you are now ready to make your own plan which you can implement in your classroom/remote
learning. You may request a copy of the Classroom/Remote Learning Management Plan of your
Resource Teacher or you may surf the internet for more samples/ exemplars to guide you in
creating your plan.
Be guided with the guide questions for each of the elements. Follow these reminders in
writing your plan
• State your plan positively.
• Use simple specific terms.
• Use measurable and observable behaviors.
• Convey expected behaviors.

WRITING MY LEARNING
FS 2
/LESSON PLAN
Lesson Plan Learning Plan - This refers to the blueprint of the daily teaching and learning
activities. It is a step-by-step guide which helps teachers in maintaining the quality of instruction.
Lesson plans consist of essential components such as learning outcomes, learning content,
resources and procedures. An effective lesson plan has a great impact on the teaching- learning
process. It is a must that teachers plan their lessons effectively to ensure a successful
instructional experience. There are three types of lesson plans: detailed, semi detailed and brief.
Some schools design their own lesson plan template which includes their vision, mission, goals
and core values.
The Department of Education has provided templates for Detailed Lesson Plan (DLLP)
and Daily Lesson Log (DLL). This was done to institutionalize instructional planning which is vital
to the teaching- learning process. Guidelines were formulated to assist teachers in planning,
organizing and managing their lessons to meet the needs of the diverse learners.
Teachers must also keep in mind that in stating the learning outcomes, the three domains
must be considered (Cognitive, Affective and Psychomotor). Outcomes must be stated in
terms that are specific, measurable, attainable, realistic and time-bound (SMART). The cognitive
domain includes remembering, understanding, applying, analyzing, evaluating and creating.
When writing lesson plans, the learning outcomes, activities and assessment must be
constructively aligned. The instructional strategies used must help in the attainment of the learning
outcomes. The modes of assessment must determine if the outcomes were attained at the end
of the lesson.
ESSENTIAL PARTS OF
LESSON/LEARNING PLAN
With all these information in mind, you are all set in writing your lesson plan. Based on the
instructions given by your Cooperating Teacher, prepare your lesson plan (s) based on the
learning competencies of the lesson. Consider the age appropriateness and level of
communication of your students.
Request lesson plan exemplars / lesson plan templates from your Resource Teacher. If
not available, you can make use of the basic components of a lesson plan.

DELIVERING MY LESSONS
Delivering My Instruction
Instructional delivery refers to the interaction among the students, the teacher and the
content for students to learn the knowledge/skills/dispositions that they will need for further
learning and for collaborating with others in a diverse society and a rapidly changing world. The
process of instructional delivery involves applying a repertoire of instructional strategies to
communicate and interact with students around academic content' and to support student
engagement. (Innovation Lab Network State Framework for College, Career, and Citizenship
Readiness, and Implications for State Policy
These are the various Learning Delivery Modalities from the Department ofEducation.
Distance Learning
Teachers to a learning delivery modality where learning takes place between the teacher and the learners
who are geographically remote from each other during instruction.
Modular Distance
Learning is in the form of individualized instruction that allows leaners to use self- learning modules (SLMs)
in print or digital format/electronic copy, whichever is applicable in the context of the learner and other
learning resources like Learner's Materials, textbooks, activity sheets, study guides and other study
materials.
Home Schooling
It is an alternative delivery mode (ADM) that aims to provide learners with equal access to quality basic
education through a home-based environment to be facilitated by qualified parents, guardians or tutors
who have undergone relevant training.
Blended Learning
This refers to a learning modality that allows for a combination of face-to-face and online distance learning
(ODL), face-to-face and modular distance learning (MDL), face-to-face and TV/Radio-based Instruction
(RBI), and face-to-face learning and a combination with two or more types of distance learning.

CONVENTIONAL RESOURCES AND
INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS
Any book on educational technology or instructional materials would usually devote some
pages to Edgar Dale's Cone of Experience. It is a classic model articulating the different types of
audiovisual materials and how these audiovisual types relate to each other. Seventy-five years
ago, in 1946, Dale already identified ten classifications of instructional materials, which remain to
be relevant today, namely: (1) Direct, Purposeful Experiences; (2) Contrived Experiences; (3)
Dramatic Participation; (4) Demonstrations; (5) Field Trips; (6) Exhibits; (7) Motion Pictures; (8)
Radio/ Recordings/ Still Pictures; (9). Visual Symbols and (10) Verbal Symbols.
According to Dale, "The cone device is a visual metaphor of learning experiences, in which
the various types of audiovisual materials are arranged in the order of increasing abstractness as
one proceeds from direct experiences." As such, the Cone of Experience can be seen more as a
continuum, not just a hierarchy. It is a way to see instructional materials in a continuum from
increasing concreteness in one direction to increasing abstractness in the other.
Jerome Bruner explained the three ways by which we can represent knowledge. These
representations are: 1. Enactive which involves movement and physical manipulation, 2. cone
which involves pictures and images; and 3. Symbolic, which involves symbols like letters and
numbers. Both the teachers and students make representations of knowledge. The teachers,
when they teach or impart knowledge, and by learners when they show or demonstrate what they
have learned.
Ideally, the more direct and real the experience given to students to learn something, the
better is the opportunity for learning. However, it is not always possible to do so. For instance,
during the pandemic, all classes switched to flexible learning utilizing online modalities, TV, Radio,
and printed modules. Situation and context challenge teachers to choose the best instructional
materials considering the limitations. As you work on this episode, remember that you take the
role of an FS student now participating and assisting in the work of selecting non-digital or
conventional resources and instructional materials. You are not simply a detached observer, but
you are now a participant as well. You are more involved in the tasks, becoming more and more
a teacher!
Be mindful that you are also developing yourself as a teacher-researcher. Always use your
capacity to notice what is going well? Or what can be missing; what can be improved? What can
be a new way of doing things? Then focus on finding out the answers to these questions. That as
a teacher, you can always find ways to do things better and more effectively. Also, aim to develop
the confidence to try and initiate to continuously improve your skills.
Revisit the infographics on the Dale Cone of experiences showing types of audiovisual
instructional materials and the selection criteria and steps in using instructional materials. (Today,
some of these materials can be described as multi-sensory, not just audio-visual.) They will
prepare you to perform well in this episode. Go FS student, go!

An app, (a shorter way of saying application) is a kind of software which can be installed
in various gadgets a desktop, laptop, smartphone, and tablet. There are thousands of apps, each
with specific functions. A wide range of functions among others includes, ordering food, getting a
ride, getting a date, doing bank transaction and even praying and meditating. Now, there are
those that are directly useful for teaching and learning which can be referred to as educational
apps. Whether the class is face-to-face, blended, or fully online, a vast number of apps can truly
enhance the teaching-learning process.
The judicious use of apps can make the teaching-learning process more effective, efficient,
and equally important, more fun and satisfying for both the teacher and the students, the teacher
can use apps in the different stages of planning, preparation, implementation and assessment.
Teachers use apps to prepare high-impact presentations that help them deliver content. Teachers
also use apps to motivate students to participate, resulting in greater and more enjoyable
engagement. Apps are also used to assess, document and report performance and achievement.
Your task in this episode is to demonstrate your skills in choosing and using appropriate
applications, enhancing both the delivery of content and the learning and mastery of the students.
You will accomplish this as you participate and assist in your Resource teacher’s class. Whether
the class is purely online or blended, carefully observe how the teacher utilizes apps for e-
learning.
An excellent guide for choosing applications to enhance teaching and learning is the
Padagogy Wheel Model created under the leadership of Dr. Allan Carrington. There were earlier
precursors, but this model appears to be the most comprehensive so far. The model aligns
applications to four essential levers. The apps' selection considers what attributes the students
will develop, student motivation, tapping higher-order thinking skills as articulated in Bloom's
taxonomy and at what level the app will be used in the SAMR Model. You will recall this from your
previous technology class and surely learn even more from this episode.
Apple gave a set of five criteria in selecting apps for teaching. The set of criteria includes
developmental appropriateness, motivation, instructional design, motivation and accessibility. It
is also most likely that you have experienced learning using many of these apps as a student.
The most popular ones are Canva, Kahoot, Mentimeter, Jamboard, Slido, Google slides, google
docs, Flipgrid, etc. And then, some apps are for specific levels and learning areas. For example,
there are hundreds of apps for preschoolers or kindergarteners, like storybooks apps, alphabet
and numbers apps, etc. At the same time, there are apps for math, reading, and science for
primary, intermediate and secondary or even collegiate levels.
As you work on this episode, remember that you take the role of FS students now
participating and assisting in the work of selecting and using apps for more effective teaching and
learning. You are inching closer to shifting the role from being a student to being the teacher.
Additionally, you take the role of a future researcher. Always use your capacity to notice
what is going well? Or what can be missing what can be improved? What can be a new way of
doing things? Then focus on finding out the answers to these questions. This is to develop in you
the disposition as a teacher-researcher. That as a teacher, you can always find ways to do things
better and more effectively. Also, aim to develop the confidence to try and initiate to continuously
improve your skills.

Exciting!
"With Allan Carringtons Padagogy Wheel Model, teachers have an at-hand reference that
ties apps to specific learning outcomes directly connected to modern pedagogies and theories.
They can easily sit with the wheel during lesson planning to find tools that will best aid their
students or use them during class time to extend or deepen learning towards a specific 21sSt-
century skill or content area. This connection of theory, practice, and application make the
Padagogy Wheel an invaluable resource that should be on the wall of every classroom.

ASSESSING FOR, AS
AND OF LEARNING
You are expected to observe how assessment for learning and assessment as learning
are implemented in the teaching-learning process.
Three phrases on assessment that we have met in our Assessment courses are
assessment for learning, Assessment as learning and assessment of learning. Assessment for
learning is more known as formative assessment while assessment of learning is called
summative assessment.
Several authors claim assessment as learning as self-assessment.
This Episode is concerned mainly with assessment for learning an assessment as learning.
It touches a little on assessment of learning which is the main focus of the next Episode.
Assessment for learning als0 referred to as formative assessment implies that assessment
is at the service of learning. Why assess? Based on the phrase "assessment for learning "we
assess to ensure learning. That is why while instruction is in progress, it is wise for the teacher to
check
If students are learning or not learning what is expected of them. If students are found not to be
learning what they are expected to learn, right there and then, remedial steps are taken through
formative assessment tasks.
Below are some remarks that students utter that signal their need for assistance which is
the purpose of formative assessment.

Learning USING TRADITIONAL
AND AUTHENTIC TYPES
FS 2
OF ASSESSMENT FOR
FORMATIVE AND
SUMMATIVE PURPOSES
Introduction
You are expected to formulate /develop traditional and authentic assessment tasks for
formative and summative assessments that are aligned with learning outcomes.
Revisit
Let's revisit the basic concepts that you have learned about traditional and authentic
assessment tools of outcome-based teaching-learning.
In outcome-based teaching-learning (OBTL), subject matter /content, teaching-learning
activities and assessment tasks are aligned with leaning outcomes. At the end of instruction, you
find out if you were able to achieve or realize your intended learning outcomes by way of an
assessment task that is expected to be aligned with your learning outcome/s. See. Figure 3.
Figure 3. The Essence of OBTL: The Alignment of Content, Teaching-Learning Activities and
Assessment Tasks with Learning outcomes
There are many ways of classifying assessment but one basis of classifying 1s the nature
of the assessment task required of learners, whether the assessment task is done through paper-
and- pencil tests (traditional assessment) or through non-paper-and-pencil tests (authentic
assessment).

You need a rubric for a reliable scoring of products or processes or a portfolio of these
products and processes. If you intend to give a single score on the student, you use a holistic
rubric. If, on the other hand, you wish to give specific scores on the different criteria for every
dimension of the product or process or portfolio, you use an analytic rubric.

GRADING AND
FS 2
REPORTING
Introduction
It is said that students should not study only for scores nor grades. Students should study
most of all for learning. It is possible for students to obtain high scores and good grades but did
not really learn that much. What is ideal is for students to get high scores and good grades
because they really learned a lot.
Our world of employment, scholarship grants, etc. still look at grades as criteria for hiring
and screening for scholarships. So grades have pragmatic value. Therefore, it is best that
students work for good grades that genuinely reflect level of mastery.
In this Episode, you will interpret scores correctly, Compute grades based on the DepEd
grading system and report grades to parents /guardians during Parents - Teachers' Conference.
Criterion-referenced assessment often use "cut scores" to place students into categories
such as basic," "proficient," and "advanced." Here is an example: The teacher's intended learning
outcome is "to solve at least eight out of ten problems on fractions correctly". Student A is able to
solve ten (10) out of ten correctly, Student B, eight (8) problems and Student C, five words (5). It
is obvious that only Students A and B were able to realize the predetermined standard as stated
in the intended learning outcome, "solve at least 8 out of 10 words correctly." The performance
(score) of each student is compared against a standard of success set by the teacher. It is not
compared against the performance of the other students.
Report Card. The Report Card is a standard method of reporting students' progress and grades
to parents. See sample report card for junior and senior high school from the Department of
Education.
For a more meaningful reporting of students' progress, the meaning of grades is given.
The DepEd gives the following grade interpretation:
Report cards convey letter grades like A, B, C, D and F sometimes with +or - so a student
may get an A+ or A-, B+ or B-, etc. Some report cards convey numerical grades such as 85 in
Math, 93 in English and 88 in Biology. Still other report cards simply have Pass or Fail. The DepEd
Student Report Card include affective characteristics such as Maka-Diyos, Maka-tao, Maka-
bansa and Maka-kalikasan.
Written Progress Reports. These can be weekly, bi-weekly or monthly reports of the
student's progress and achievement (McMillan, 2007). These written reports may include the
student's performance on tests and quizzes, projects, oral reports... They also can include
information about the student's motivation, cooperation and behavior, as well as suggestions for
how parents can help the student improve his/her performance.
It has been a practice of schools to set aside a day for Report Card distribution which is
the same opportunity for parents and teachers to confer regarding their Child's performance.
Here are some reminders for schools/teachers to get the most from parent-teacher
conferences:
1. Announce the date for card-giving in advance. Or better still the school calendar which
should be given at the beginning of the school year must already include the dates for
card-giving and parent-teacher conference/s. Parents are busy and can't just be there
at the school's beck and call.
2. Be positive in approach. Start the conference with something positive and maintain the
positive atmosphere. There is always something good in every student. Even if a student
has performed poorly, try to find at least some areas in which the student has performed
well.
3. Be objective. While you should be positive, be truthful and honest. Give an accurate
picture of a student's performance in order not to give false hopes to parents.
4. Have a listening ear. Act with empathy. Parents are parents. They will tend to favor their
children.
5. Don't project an "omniscient "image. You don't know all the answers to questions. Refer
the parents to the right person. Example, the Physics teacher if the problem is the child's
performance in Physics.
6. Practice good communication skills. Communicate criteria for grading, Have a dialogue
not a monologue where the only one talking is you (or only the parent).
7. Don't talk about other students. The focus of the parent-teacher conference should only
be the parent's child. Never compare the child with other students.
8, End with an encouraging note in the same way that you began with a positive note. 1t
not the end of the world.
Reporting
Schools schedule Card Getting Day and Parents- Teachers' Conference (PTC) which are
an opportunity for parents and teachers to discuss about, students' performance and grades to
make sense of scores and grades. Unfortunately, based on observation, not all parents can attend
PTC and most often it is the parents of students with problematic performance that can't come for
PTC.
(Note to Student Teacher: As you participate and assist your FS Resource Teacher in
Scoring assessment tasks, computing grades and reporting grades to parents and
guardians, please take note of what you are expected to give more attention to as asked
in the next step of this Learning Episode (NOTICE).
• Confer with your Resource Teacher about scoring students assessment tasks, grade
computation and reporting. This may also be done face-to-face or online
• Ask your Resource Teacher what you can do to assist him/her in the scoring or student’s

WRITING AN INITIAL
FS 2
ACTION RESERCH
PLAN
The ultimate goal of doing action research 1s to improve teacher's practices in order to
Action research action plan should be place in writing just like a lesson plan. This is what we are
going to do.
The first four episodes of this FS workbook helped you learn the important purpose and
the process involved in doing action research.
The rest of the episodes focused on crucial aspects of teaching and learning. While you
assisted and participated, the episode questions guided you to notice, analyze and reflect on your
experiences. You also identified issues and problems or areas of improvement and then thought
of interventions, innovations, or strategies to address them (Action Research Prompts).
You are now ready elaborate or expand these action research prompts.
In this final episode, your task is to write an initial action research plan. Any research action
plan should be planned and written well. Put together what you learned about action research
and all the insights you gained in working on the past FS 2 episodes
Let us revisit our Action Research Model. As a beginner, use the model of Nelson, O (2014) as
your basis for developing an initial plan for action research.
Plan Act
The Action
Research
Cycle
Reflect Observe
As you become more skillful in action research, you may like to use the McNiff and Whitehead 2014
or DepEd DO 16 2017 models.
We said at the beginning that all teachers can make an Action Research. It is easy to do
it, Let’s try doing it. Today, you shall develop a Plan for our Action Research by following the
simple cycle.
Use the following steps of the model. Your answer to the Key Questions in each step, will guide
you in making your plan.
Step 2: REFLECT. Start to reflect on the identified problem. However, reflection is done all
throughout the action research process.
Key questions:
o Is there a way to solve the identified problem? How will I do it?
o Is looking for a solution or answer to the problem worth doing?
o Will solving the problem improve my teaching practice? How?
o Will it improve my skill as a researcher and reflective teacher?
Step 3: PLAN FOR ACTION. Appropriate action or solution to the problem in a plan.
Key questions:
o What probable action will I make? Will my intervention be doable?
o How will I describe my intervention, innovation, or actions to address the identified
problem?
o How long will it take to implement the intervention, action or innovation?
o With whom shall I work with?
o Will the result be of use? How?
Step 4: ACT on the PLAN. This step will be done during the Teaching Internship or in FS
2 if given the time. You may collaborate with your mentor or your classmate.
NOTICE
Making a capsule Action Research Plan will prepare you to undertake an actual Action
Research. You will also be able to assist your mentor to do similar research together
In the past episodes focusing on the key aspects of teaching and learning, you have
answered the Action Research Writing prompts. Go back to these, and choose which episode
topic you would like to work on as you write an action research plan.
Here are the episodes and the pages where you can find them. Review each Action
Research Writing Prompt and choose one to work on to elaborate in this episode.
Episode Title
1 The Teacher We Remember
ANALYZE
We said at the beginning that all teachers could make an Action Research. It is easy to do
it. Let's try doing it. Today, you shall develop a Plan for our Action Research by following the
simple cycle. You will share your output with your mentor for an opportunity to work together.
Model A:
A Observe/ Notice
What problem/concern have I noticed that affect teaching-learning?
Example Response. The problem I have noticed is that there is a lot of competition in the
classroom. The slow learners are left behind.
B. Reflect
Think deeply of the problem and your observation. Why is this happening? Can the slow
learners be helped? How will it be done?
Example Response: I think most of the activities are very competitive. There are always
winners and losers The smart students overrule the poor students thus often they continue to
be losers. With this situation, I believe, that l should modify my classroom strategy.
Key questions:
• Are methods, participants, data collection, time table considered in my Plan for
Action?
Write your own Plan of Action Research based on the key questions. You give more details.

Remember: Reflection is a process of making sense of one's previous experience. Please take
a look at what you do in the classroom and think about why you do it. Recall things that you have

reconstructions about it.
What knowledge, attitude, and skills did you have that helped you accomplish it?
What do you still need to learn and develop in yourself to be a skilled teacher-researcher?
