Overview
Teaching profession is highly regarded throughout the ages and rightly
recognized by society as a true vocation (Lawrence, 1999). However, to become
teachers is not easy because of the rigid training that the prospective teachers
have to undergo. This is required to make sure that they possess the
qualification necessary for teachers who will be working with children and
influence their formative years to help them grow with confidence to face the
challenges of the world.
Student teaching then is very important part of training and one of the
most memorable activities in the College of Teacher Education. Despite of the
rigid training the teacher education students get from the Teacher Training
Institutions, they need to experience the atmosphere of actual environment and
authentic learners to have the first-hand experience in the field. Being new in
this environment, they face predicaments and ask enormous questions like:
How will I accomplish my duties and responsibility satisfactorily? Can I meet
the expectations of my critic teachers? Will I be able to manage the class? Will
my pupils take me as a teacher or will see me as a student?
On the part of the cooperating teacher he or she will ask question like:
Will the student teacher critical of my teaching? Will I meet the expectations of
the student teacher assigned to me? How will my pupils react when the
student teacher is around? Is the student teacher competent enough to handle
the class? How will I get along with the student teacher and the
coordinating/supervising teachers from the College of Teacher Education?
The first week of student teaching is very crucial for both the student
teacher and the cooperating teacher. Hence, student teachers begin the
student teaching activities with orientation period when they become
acquainted with the school, staff, faculty, pupils and the community. The
information is very important in the understanding of the behavior and ways of
the people they associate with.
It is very important that the student teacher and the cooperating teacher
have positive outlook to make the student teaching worthwhile and enjoyable.
From the start to the end of student teaching experience, student
teachers need to answer series of questions with the help of the cooperating
teachers and the principals of the school where they are deployed.

The Rationale, Nature and Scope of Student Teaching


Student teaching is the stage of your education where you will be playing
dual roles; that of the student and that of the teacher. At this stage of your
training, your actual classroom experiences may become influential factors in
your professional career.
The student teaching program is designed to provide the student
teachers opportunities to apply the principles and strategies of teaching and
evaluation in actual teaching-learning situations, utilization of actual teaching
techniques and instructional materials. The experiences gained by the
prospective teachers at this stage will develop further their competencies in
teaching.
Student teaching is 6 unit-course to be finished in one semester. It
covers three phases namely; orientation, off campus, period of evaluation or
the preparation of your narrative report. During the seminar, you will find
answers to your questions about: which school you will be assigned? What is
demonstration teaching? How will you handle the discipline of the pupils and
other questions related to the teaching of other subjects?
The off-campus work will provide you on-the-job experiences of teaching
in the real classroom setting. It is during this period where you will apply the
teaching-learning principles, strategies in teaching, knowledge in the
preparation of instructional materials and test as well as handling individual
differences.
The evaluation period is observed after the off-campus assignment when
you report back to UA to work on your narrative report includes the summary
of your work experience with school children, school personnel and the
community.
Objectives of Practice Teaching

The National Competency-Based Teacher Standards (NCBTS)

What is the NCBTS?

The NCBTS is an integrated theoretical framework that defines the


different dimensions of effective teaching, were effective teaching means being
able to help all types of students learn the different learning goals in the
curriculum (CHED Experiential Learning Courses Handbook, 2007)

Who Use the NCBTS and what are the benefits it provides?

Anyone or any teacher who is interested in improving teaching practices


should refer to the NCBTS, hence, teacher education institutions shall use the
NCBTS to design and implement effective per-service teacher education
curricula. The Professional Regulatory Commission shall refer to the NCBTS in
designing the Licensure Examination for Teachers. Organizations and agencies
that implement in-service education for teachers (INSET) shall refer to the
NCBTS in developing their interventions. Award-giving body shall refer to the
NCBTS in defining the criteria for outstanding teachers. The DepEd shall use
the NCBTS in formulating its hiring, promotion, supervision, and other policies
related to the teaching profession. It shall use the NCBTS to guide its INSET
programs for teachers (CHED ELCH, 2007).

The NCBTS is not just a standard against which teachers will be


evaluated but more importantly, it is a guide for helping teachers become more
effective teachers or facilitators of learning.

NCBTS assumes that:

- Individual teachers have various types of levels of motivation to improve


their teaching to enhance student learning;
- Individual teachers have different capabilities to pursue their motivations
their teaching for effective learning;
- They have diverse ranges of opportunities to pursue their motivations
and raise their capabilities to teach better in whatever situations they
are;

13
UNIVERSITY OF ANTIQUE
COLLEGE OF TEACHER EDUCATION
Sibalom, Antique

- The process of improving the teacher is an individual process, but this is


sustained and enhanced when the efforts are collaborative and
synergistic among communities of teachers;
- Individual teachers may develop improved teaching practice for enhances
student learning but the full impact on student learning is best achieved
by integrated and cumulative improved efforts of many teachers;
- The qualities of good teaching for enhanced student learning are found in
individual teachers, but such qualities are strengthened and valued more
when it is supported by communities of teachers and educators.

How does NCBTS define good teaching?

The competency-based teacher standards are organized in hierarchy. The

History of UA – Laboratory High School

The University of Antique, formerly known as the Polytechnic State


College of Antique and Antique of Arts and Trades was established by virtue of
R.A 857 approved on January 19, 1954 through the efforts of the late
Congressman Tobias A. Fornier.

UA has humble beginnings. A temporary 5-room building made of


bamboo and nipa was all it had a few months after it was established on
January 19, 1954. Indeed it was not made to last a decade. Typhoon “Delta” in
July 1956 finally devastated it to the grounds. But the destruction of the
temporary edifice did not crush nor dampen like spirit of unrelenting pioneers,
a handful of teachers and staff under Superintendent Fermin Taruc Jr. The
beginnings of this institution may be humble, yet the people who founded it
and strived hard to make it grow can only be described as illustrious.

One of the Congressman Tobias Fornier’s greatest achievements in his


stint as representative to Congress and for which he will be greatly and dearly
remembered is ASAT. By virtue of R.A 857, Antique School of Arts and Trades
(ASAT) were established. The school did not have a permanent site and
building then. Yet, Mayor Santiago A. Lotilla immediately took initiative in
donating land where the school will be permanently located. Many benevolent
Sibalomnons followed suit. When construction commenced men and women
worked in shifts, all generous with their time, effort, material resources and
moral support. The founding years was the time of big dreams and indomitable
spirit to pursue these dreams. The hard struggles to overcome the challenges of
breaking and clearing the grounds, leveling the hills, steadying the posts,
rebuilding devastated structures, providing more accommodations to the
growing number of students were never more than the determination and
fortitude of the pioneer administrators, teachers, students, supporters, and the
community. Among the administrators and important people responsible for

Sibalom, Antique

securing the foundations of the schools were Supt. Hilarion Agustin, Supt. Gil
Tenefrancia, Supt. Rogelio Cachuela and Supt. Victor Blacer.

The turbulence in the political scenario of the 70’s and changing tide of
socio-cultural events threatened to shake the foundation of a young school like
ASAT. Yet, instead of giving in to the menace, it was propelled to function. In
1970’s the school which specialized in ceramics, a field which also gave added
reason for its existence, rose to prominence when it was acclaimed as one of
the best ceramica school in the country. The creativity of Mr. Donato Sermeno
Jr. was given honor. Behind him was the support of the people like Supt.
Avelino Asuncion, Supt. Paulino Villagonzalo, Supt. Salvador Navarro, Mr.
Olimpio N. Madiangbayan, Supt. Adriano S. Sullesta, and Mr. Teopisto Umpad.

The school was like the humble day, supple and formless, yet when in
the hands of an artist, becomes a masterpiece. The artistry of the Sibalomnons
was expressed in the production of figurines and pottery. And art, like any
other noble pursuit of the human mind gave wings to the spirit of exploration
and higher achievement. Toward close of the 70’s Supt. Godofredo E. Gallega
was given the reins of administering ASAT after the term of Supt. Adriano
Sullesta. With the support of Assemblyman Arturo K. Pacificador who passed
Batas Pambansa Blg. 912, ASAT took an ambitious step. It was converted into
a college on November 14, 1982, thus, being known from then on as the
Polytechnic State College of Antique. The conversion of the school is not only a
change in its name. It dared more impressive changes in its buildings,
grounds, and physical structure, in facilities and equipment.

It enjoyed improvements in curricular offerings, structure and administration,


faculty qualifications and trainings, programs and thrusts.

The decade of conversion was the time of renewed visions and directions.
It was the time of hope. It was a happy era of cultural revival as well as
euphoric decade of freedom fought in. The byword of the 90’s was expansion.

26
UNIVERSITY OF ANTIQUE
COLLEGE OF TEACHER EDUCATION
Sibalom, Antique

This expansion was in the colleges growing population, curricular offerings,


and facilities but also in its thrusts and programs. The idea of expansion
brought with it the challenge of accreditation. Seven areas of its operation, later
expanded to twelve, were subjected to closer scrutiny in order to bring the
college to the level of excellence. This was the time that the word EXCELLENCE
was taken to heart and made an ever-present tenet in our school life. It was a
time when the meaning of excellence was made the essence of our existence. It
was also the centennial of the Philippine revolution, thus, awaking the
nationalistic spirit of the majority of the citizens.

This decade was not only the expansion of thrusts, from the mere
instruction to the triumvirate of instruction, research and extension. It was
also the years when other tertiary schools were integrated with PSCA, thus,
giving birth to daughter campuses in Hamtic (formerly ACA) and Tibiao then
TLMASOF.

The turn of the century, the ushering of the new millennium. It was the
year 2000. It was the year of jubilee, a celebration. Just as we rejoiced in
having reached a new epoch of eternity, we rejoiced that PSCA has turned fifty!

Time has passed swiftly by PSCA was invigorated with new vision and hope.
The last struggles and victories strengthen them as they rejoiced in their
success. They were ready to take leap to reach university status. Such as it
was in the past, PSCA is never alone in its dreams. Former Congressman
Jovito Plameras helped PSCA shape this dream, which was later pursued in
Congress by the incumbent Congressman Exequiel B. Javier.

Meanwhile, on March 2005, Dr. Godofredo E. Gallega was appointed


president of TCP-Manila so, Dr. Benny Palma the then ASU President
temporarily served as OIC-President until Dr. Victor E. Navarra was chosen as
the second President and the assumed his duty on March 25, 2006.

The struggle in converting UA into a University continued for many years


even during the time of Gov. Salvacion Z. Perez.

Finally, on November 10, 2009, during the incumbency of congressman


Exequiel B. Javier, Pres. Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo signed R.A. 9746, converting
PSCA into the University of Antique.

At last, the dream has come into a reality! It was a very glorious day for
the UA community and for the Antiqueños as a whole.

Since its conversion into a university, sUA’s population has increased


significantly so this requires more instructors, more classrooms and other
facilities to accommodate the increasing number of students.

UA is undergoing lots of changes and developments and its envisions to


become a leading University in science and technology by 2022 and its adheres
to its mission, that is, to provide quality, relevant, and responsive scientific,
technological, and professional education and advanced training in different
areas of specialization and shall undertake research and extension services in
support of the socio-economic development of Antique, the Filipino nation, and
the global community.

Introduction

“Education breeds confidence. Confidence breeds hope. Hope breeds peace.” –


Confucius

Student teaching is a part of college curriculum that aims to prepare


future teachers to become effective agents molding the youth for national and
global development. It provodes student’s opportunity to practice what has
been learned in the university campus and more importantly, it is an
opportunity to continue academic and professional growth. It isan important
tool in connecting the gap between the academic theories and actual practice
ade possible by the collaboration of the educational institution and the
dynamic society. The student intership of College of Teacher Education of the
University of Antique gives oppotunities to its students to experience the real
world of teaching.

Studnt teaching is one of the method by which students are exposed with
different work situation designed to give an opportunity to experience and a
chance to apply the theories that theyhave learned from the shool. It also helps
the student like me to become a better teacher in the near future and I can be
able to develop my self – confidence and my teaching skills in front of actual
students and experience the actual teaching situation.

I can stiil remember the day that I am excited of having my student


teaching experience. Until the day came, the fire of excitement is burning in my
soul, that I wanted to met my students.

The day past so fast and our almost 4 months of staying in school ended
but the learning that it gaves me still lingers in my heart and my mind that I
can treasure forever and thatIcan apply when I become a teacher someday.

I learned a lot from a lot from my experience and I have many


realizations in my life. Teaching is full of happiness and heartaches but
touching the life of students is rewarding. Being a student intern mean a lot for

38
UNIVERSITY OF ANTIQUE
COLLEGE OF TEACHER EDUCATION
Sibalom, Antique

me because I teach them what I have known and I’m happy that I can be
ableto touch and inpire each lif of my students. I may experience good and bad
things but I realize the most important thing in teaching is our students and
the learnings that they have learned. Not just in the book but as teacher I
believe that the best instructional is the teacher.

Student teaching made me realize that teaching is not about the salary
but more about the learnings, unending love and values implied to the mind
and heart of the students, the invaluable smiles in their faces when they learn
something new. The trust you build with them that you are able to share
something personal to you. The laughter that were all over the campus because
you have spent time wit them, most importantly the relationship that you build
aside from teacher and student that you become part of their journey and their
hearts.

Being a teacher is very noble and respected profession, the students and
the society look up unto you and with high honor. I gain friends in m
colleagues and to the teachers. I gain a family in my students and I gain values
in my experiences.

My student teaching experience is the best experience in the four


years of my college life. It tells me lesso that ill be treasured in my heart, the
moments that wil flasback that made me smile and cry in joy.

To workbook was prepared and developed to provide an share


experiences to those who will undergo the same endeavors. The content of this
workbook includes my experiences, problemsihave encountered, narrative
reports, lesson plans and my accomplishments as I undergo the student
intership. This workbook also serves as a mirror of my progress and
achievements during my student intership.

Now, that I’m almost on my way to the finish line of my journey, I may
say that all the sacrifices and struggles in mycollege life are relly worth it.

39
UNIVERSITY OF ANTIQUE

Indeed teaching will make you experience how how to be the other person you
least expect. And I am excited to take my new journey as a teacher.

May God bless us all!

Experiences with Students

There were lots of things that had happened during the time of
my journey in Student Internship. Mixed emotions, I felt nervous
but at the same time I was very happy that at last I am about to
enter the nest level of my teaching career. After pursuing the 24
educational units in teaching here also in SPNHS and hopefully
passing the Licensure Examination for Teachers, now I could be
able to apply those concepts and principles of teaching that I have
learned.

The first time I entered the gate of San Pedro National School
as a student teacher, I felt that excitement. “What kind of learners
will I have?”, “How will I approach them?”, “Are they fun to be
with?” those are the questions that lingers my mind before. But
when my first meeting of my students in grade 9 – Platinum, I felt
nervous because of the feeling of “Oh! I’m standing in front as a
teacher not as a student or as a classmate.” I need to gain tons of
confidence so I may be able to face them and to utter words from
my mouth.

When I started talking they were all quiet as if they were


observing every gestures that I am making and every word that
comes out of my mouth. They were all very serious that the
atmosphere in the room is so awkward, so I needed to set the mood
and let the class have fun. From then on, starts a very wonderful
story of my experience.

41
UNIVERSITY OF ANTIQUE
COLLEGE OF TEACHER EDUCATION
Sibalom, Antique

I encountered students that will try their very hard to impress


you, up to the point that they wanted to test how far you have gone.
But you need to answer their questions in a very professional
manner that they will not notice that you do not actually know the
answer. Students that will test your temper when it comes to
making things funny that sometimes overpowering your patience. It
made me stand firm and build competence between my ego and my
manners. It needs to let them know that a teacher is a person to be
respected of and not a person that will make fun of.

Speaking in English inside the classroom is difficult for some


learners to understand. So, I needed to speak in vernacular in order
for them to understand what I am talking in front. In order for them
to practice their speaking skills especially English. At the same time
relating real life situation in the topic to encourage and motivate
them to participate inside the room.

Students of today, are very competitive. They need time, more


time to present their work even if you have set the deadline. It is
because they wanted to present their work at their best effort. But
sometimes, the cause of the delay of their submission is their time
management. They do not know what to prioritize so they ended up
doing nothing. That’s the time I will tell them or even sometimes
scold them because they abuse my generosity in giving time.

But despite their flaws in passing outputs and being active in


class at times, they have contributed to the color of my experiences.

42
UNIVERSITY OF ANTIQUE
COLLEGE OF TEACHER EDUCATION
Sibalom, Antique

I have experienced the feeling of being a real teacher because of how


they treated me. We shared ideas about our lesson, they shared
their secrets, their heartaches and even the happy moments; they
became my “student-barkada” we hung out when I had vacant time,
we ate together, laughters were all over the campus. Because of the
short age gap we clicked to the trip of one another. They were able
to share their struggles and I was able to comfort them and give
little advices.

They taught me that I should at times but in a professional


way. They taught me things like the words I haven’t encountered
yet. They taught me the life behind their smiles and their sacrifices
that inspired me to become a better teacher. They taught me to
inspire them by helping them cope up and learn their lessons inside
and outside the classroom. They had given me the opportunity to
see the reality of life and gave me the opportunity to be a part of
their story.

Experiences with Cooperating teacher

My practice teaching in UA Laboratory High School would be


incomplete without the assistance of my cooperating teacher, Ms.
Liezel Lumogdang and Mr. Van Helen S. Cuaderes. They helped me
with everything from classroom management to lesson planning.
They never showed desertion while I was their student teacher.
Instead, they encouraged me to give all that I could in order to
perform well.

Teaching Strategies. Before our practice teaching, my


knowledge about teaching strategies was only limited and is
encapsulated from the books content. With the guidance of my
critic teacher I was able to look deeper into it and discovered the
various teaching strategies I could use for my class. She let me find
my footing first and when she saw that I can do it on my own, she
slowly paved the way for me to do my thing and handle the class on
my own pace.

Classroom Management. I never thought that handling a ninth


grader would be this hard, it is really nerve-wrecking. But when
reality strikes I clearly saw that it is somehow hard to manage those
petite beings. My critic teacher taught me to use “Rewards and
Punishment” method in order to handle my class. With every good
behavior I reward them additional points while unnecessary
behaviors are rewarded with deductions. This is how I manage my
class and it is already been tested and proven.

44
UNIVERSITY OF ANTIQUE
COLLEGE OF TEACHER EDUCATION
Sibalom, Antique

Lesson Planning. Lesson planning is the bible in teaching. My


critic teacher never failed to correct my lesson plans. They always
made sure that everything is utilized. Together, we explore possible
options on how we can deliver the lesson in a lively and timely
manner.

My cooperating teacher helped a lot in my learning experiences


as a student teacher for almost 4 months of my stay in UA
Laboratoty High School. I will treasure her inside my heart and
instil her advices in my mind.

Experiences with Administration

The administration in UA LaboratoryHigh School is very


accommodating. The Principal, Mrs. Monalie C. Saylo is very
approachable, as long as she is not busy with other matters she
may able to help you when you are in need.

The teachers and staffs are very nice, when you smile at them
they smile back, which is a good feeling. They can help you when
you ask for their assistance. The teachers also answers the
questions regarding their subject matter, they also share ideas
based on their experiences. They understand the circumstances
that I am facing. I am very blessed and grateful to experience
different kinds of teachers at UA Laboratory High School.
