 Lesson 1
Course Overview

ACTIVITY 1

Read the LDM Course Overview. Reflect on the overview. I by answering the following
questions. Write down your insights in your Study Notebook.

1. What is the main delivery of this course?

The main delivery of this course, that Deped must adopt alternative delivery learning
to the learners through Distance Learning, Blended Learning, and Homeschooling.

2. How can this course help ensure that you will be able to deliver quality instruction in the “new
normal”?
To deliver quality instruction in the “new normal” this LDM course give me an
opportunity to look into different modalities that would suit the need of my learners
and adopt which among the modalities is applicable to them.

3. What are the two support mechanisms that will help you with your learning in this course?

A critical component of the Learning Continuity Plan is enabling us teachers and

school leaders to use these learning delivery modalities effectively with these two
streams. The first stream (LDM1) is focused on the implementation and management
of the alternative learning delivery system at all levels of the education system, and
intended for school and division leaders. This course was taking now, which is LDM2,
is intended for us teachers and is focused on the instructional implications of using
these alternative LDMs.

Also, support coming from my colleagues and collaborations through the Learning
Action Cells (LACs) will help me with my learning in this course.
 ACTIVITY 2

Answer the following questions by copying and filling out the table in your Study Notebook.

1. How will my personal characteristics and circumstances affect (positively or negatively) my

participation in this course?

My professional attitude towards answering the LDM modules will affect positively
my participation in this course. Though I have other essential school related works
aside from answering these modules, still I am optimistic that gradually I can finish
all of these on time. Take the challenge for the new normal and embrace it positively.

2. How can I ensure that I am able to sustain my strengths and address the obstacles that will hinder me
from completing this course?

I can ensure that I will be able to sustain my strengths and address the obstacles that
will hinder me from completing this course through effective time management,
efficient collaboration among the LAC members of our group and constant
communication to our LAC Coach.

 LESSON 2:
ORGANIZING YOUR
LEARNING ACTION CELL (LAC)

ACTIVITY 1

Begin by refreshing your memory on the Learning Action Cell. Read DepEd Order No. 35 s. 2016 titled
“The Learning Action Cell as the K to 12 Basic Education Program School-Based Continuing Professional
Development Strategy for the Improvement of Teaching and Learning.”

Once you are done, answer the following questions. Write your responses and any other ideas and
reflections in your Study Notebook.

1. Reflect on the objectives for conducting LAC session as listed in DO 35, s. 2016. Rank the
following objectives from easiest to the most difficult to achieve:

__1__ To improve the teaching-learning process to improve learning among students

__4__ To nurture successful teachers

__2__ To enable teachers to support each other to continuously improve their content and the
pedagogical knowledge, practice, skills, and attitudes

__3__ To foster a professional collaborative spirit among school heads, teachers, and the
community as a whole

2. What are the top three challenges to having a successful LAC? List down and elaborate.

In my own opinion, the three challenges that ensure successful LAC are the following:

1. LAC Scheduling of Meeting

The selection of date and time is significant indicators to ensure successful LAC
session. This means that the date and time is favorable to all the LAC team members. All
should be present so that everyone should be able to share their own understanding,
interventions to be adopted, and productively generate solutions to issues that concern the
school, the learners, and among themselves. In this manner, LAC session will become
successful and productive.

2. Setting Up of Resources
Before the LAC session be scheduled before hand, the LAC leader
should ensure that all resources (human and material) are ready.
Because if not, success will not be possible if both human and material
resources are not complete nor ready.

3. Prioritization of Topics or Agenda

Prioritization of LAC topic to be tackled is an essential indicator of
success because if done so, problems will be addressed immediately.
 Careful selection of LAC topic should surface the present problems of the
school, of the learners, or among the teachers themselves.

ACTIVITY 2

According to DP 35, s. 2016, a LAC should have no less than 2 but not
more than 15 members each. Get in touch with your designated Coach or
LAC Leader in forming your LACs.

1. Agree on a date and time to meet and discuss forming your LACs.
Follow LAC Session 1 Guide for the conduct of your LAC.

2. During this meeting, decide on your groupings and designate one LAC
Facilitator and one LAC Leader per LAC.

3. Note the following in forming your LACs:

 LACs should be composed of teachers. Discuss your preferred
LAC composition with your assigned Instructional Coach (this
will be a district or division supervisor assigned to your LAC).
 After forming your respective LACs, there should be a LAC Leader
assigned to you from among the following school members:
 Master Teacher
 Head Teacher/Department Head
 Other senior teachers who have proven competence,
potential to lead, or subject expertise to lead the LAC.

 Teacher LACs can connect with their Instructional Coach through

the LAC Leader. This Instructional Coach will also be handling
multiple LAC through a network of LAC Leaders.
