1. Write the summary of the topics discussed by Dr. Ronald Masiddo
This February 28, 2024, we have received two seminars that served as a refresher and a reminder and one of which is the discussion of Instructional planning. The seminar covers the purpose, legal basis, and guidelines for instructional planning, emphasizing the role of Daily Lesson Log (DLL) and Detailed Lesson Plan (DLP) in managing instruction effectively. The legal basis or the so called “bible” of teachers as Dr. Masiddo made mentioned, is the DepEd Order 42, s. 2016 also known as Policy Guidelines on Daily Lesson Preparation for the K to 12 Basic Education Program. It emphasizes the significance of instructional planning in successful teaching and learning, aligning with the content and performance standards. It also details the components of instructional planning, the instructional process, lesson planning, and the integration of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in teaching. It is also important to note that newly hired teachers, should craft DLP for a year. And only teachers who are already in the field for a year and has available LMs and TGs can craft DLL. But there is also an exemption to the rule: when the applicant teacher has gained a rating of “Very Satisfactory” or “Outstanding” in the RPMs, they can now proceed to crafting DLL only. Additionally, it provides templates and samples of DLLs and DLPs, encouraging teachers to utilize these tools for effective lesson delivery. The seminar concludes with a reflection from our Former DepEd Secretary Leonor Briones wherein she explains the necessity of instructional planning and the assurance that the new DLL format is designed to aid teachers in delivering lessons more effectively. 2.
