REFLECTION ON THE EPISODE 3

Episode 3 allows you to see how differences in gender, culture, and religious
backgrounds, including those from indigenous groups, influence learner behavior, interaction,
and performance in school. We all know that in school, students are diverse, and with diversity
comes greater responsibilities.

In this episode, I have learned and realized the importance of knowing or determining
the difference among students. Knowing where they come from is an important factor in
understanding them. With that, we can generate ways on how to address their needs. As a
future educator, my goal is to create the needs of my students as well as understanding their
culture and religion and inspire them to turn their weaknesses into strengths. As I go beyond
this episode, I have learned that to be an effective teacher, I have to be knowledgeable about
the issues or things that could affect my learners. In addition, an effective teacher creates a
learning community where my students including other people can work together despite the
differences in their abilities and capacities.

The need to become an effective teacher is very important to every student. We hone
their future, educators are the ones who will help them in building their future and would help
them become the better person they aspire. With that being said, knowing their capabilities,
understanding their differences, and being aware are also some of the most important factors
that would help us create strategies and practices that are relevant in student learning.
