Planning for Technology Integration: The use of laptop, connectivity, Zoom meeting, Google
form, Padlet, Poll taking
Planning for VAPA integration: The creation of a collage on Padlet that can include pictures
based on student preference.
Instructional strategies to be used and their rationale: Lecture method, student collaboration
and inquiry based instruction with the aid of technology. These were chosen since the content
is for remembering and applying of the knowledge in the cognitive learning theory.
