making board displays. How do you practice these skills?
During my school days, I don’t experience making board displays. However, I could
possibly consider myself for having this creative and visualization skills. I am not an
expert but, in some way, or another I could pull it to have this make over thing and make
it for more interesting for the students.
3. Which skills do you still need to develop? What concrete steps will you take on how you can
improve on or acquire these skills.

1. While you were observing the learners, did you recall your own experiences when you were
their age? What similarities or differences do you have with the learners you observed?
While I’m observing the learner’s, I remembered those days when I was at their age.
There’s a lot of similarities and differences that I remembered. The similarities are
playing with my classmates, sometimes not listening to the teacher, playing inside the
classroom and etc. The differences when I was a child, when my teacher strict, he slapped
my hand and pinched my groin. Unlike today, many children are fickle unlike then when
youth was quiet.
2. Think of a teacher you cannot forget for positive or negative reasons. How did she/he help or
not help you with your needs (physical, social, and cognitive)? How did it affect you?
I will never forget I had a flat 1 grade now in college. When I was in elementary and
high school, I never experienced this grade, but now in college I’m happy that I have this
beautiful grade.
3. Share you other insights here.
Children are still developing and constructing knowledge so in terms of teaching, we
discuss topics that is relevant or appropriate to their cognitive level. Learner’s must not
force to perform tasks that are beyond their current cognitive capabilities. This learning
will be applied to my teaching profession someday in facilitating learning of the children
soon I will become a teacher.

ANALYZE
Answer the following questions based on the diagram.
1. Are the three components constructively aligned? Explain.
Yes, the three components are constructively aligned from setting the learning outcomes,
down to what methods to be accurately use to achieve the outcomes and what type of
assessment to be conducted to test the level of learning the student has. For example, in
TLE. The teacher set an outcome for student to be able to cook a French Omelets. The
teaching method she used was to let the student watch the video. And she assesses the
student through cooking activity.
2. Will the outcomes be achieved with the teaching methods used? Why?
Yes, the outcomes were achieved with the teaching methods the teacher used. Although,
it was modular but then the teacher provided an illustration of the steps in cooking
Omelets and link for the video for those who can avail to watch. Basically, we think the
outcome has achieved through this teaching method.

ANALYZE
UTILIZATION OF TEACHING AIDS FORM
Used the technology Integration form to analyze the class you observed. Refer to the Technology
Integration Matrix on p. 123, In which level of technology integration do you think the teacher
you observed operated? Why?
Based on the technology integration matrix provided by the book, the resource teacher
attained the following levels: entry, adoption, infusion, and transformation. For all the
resource teacher used the technology, which are the laptop and projector from the very
beginning of her class starting from prayer and presentation of objectives, afterwards, she
let the students to manipulate and operate the technology alone to explain some part of
the lesson and instead of just merely receiving information from the technology, the
resource teacher let the students to discuss the topic by themselves and to raise questions
to their classmates which eventually, when the classmate asked didn’t answer the
question correctly, she manage to answer it. After that the resource teacher let the
students to use the technology, which is a laptop, to make their own “Academic Format
Letter” in Microsoft Office Word” to be passed on their next meeting.
Based on the Technology Integration Matrix, what is the characteristic of the learning
environment in the class that you observed? Point your observations that you justify your
answer.
The following are the characteristics of the following of the environment in the class that
I had observed
• Active: The resource teacher in the class that I had observed let her students to operate
and set up the projector and the laptop before they start a during her discussion of the
lesson.
• Collaborative: The resource teacher of the class that I had observed grouped her
students into five members each to present specific topics using the technology she
prepared, the laptop and projector.
• Constructive: The technology; laptop and projector served as the main teaching aids of
the resource teacher that I had observed, therefore it serves as the resource of information
in which the students construct their understanding.
• Authentic: The resource teacher that I had observed asked the students to create their
own ' Academic Format “using laptop in Microsoft Office Word.
• Goal Directed: the resource teacher that we had observed asked her students to prepare
a power point presentation for the next students to report in front of the class
Overall, were the learning resources used effectively? Why? Why not? Give your suggestions?
Overall, I must say that the resource teacher executes to learning resources well and
effectively for the students tend to collaborate and cooperative in her discussion and they
tend to focus their attention on the projected power point presentation projected on the
board. My only suggestion is that next time, it is more advisable to use animation on the
text that needs to get emphasized and also, use more images if possible.
REFLECT
1. Put yourself in the place of the teacher. What would you do similarly and what would you do
differently if you would teach the same lesson to the same group of students?
If I will be put in the place of the resource teacher and will teach the same topic to the
same group of students. I will be using the same technology she used, which are laptop
and projector, for the students seems to focus more on what I am going to say if there is a
projected presentation of the topic that I will discuss. Maybe the only different thing that
I will do compared to the resource teacher is that I will use “Problem-Solving Method
“for I want my students to discover for themselves how to do or write an academic
Format Letter, and also, I will use Differentiated Instruction Method” for the students to
focus on one part of the letter format the group leader will explain their part in front of
the class. And for the Evaluation. I will ask my students to write an academic Format
Letter to the principal of our school on them propose program, projects for the
improvement of our own alma mater.

REFLECT
1. How can MOOCs help you in your future career as a professional teacher and as a lifelong
learner?
As a future teacher, MOOCs helps me to realized that technology has a big part on our
lives and at the time in our learning. Through MOOCs we can explore more new things
that can help us in our teaching-learning process. It helps me to enhance my computer
skills on exploring online learning through MOOCs. As a lifelong learner, MOOCs helps
me to give opportunity to have quality education. It also helps to become prepared for my
future profession. I will use it in my daily life of teaching for my students to have higher
education.
2. What did you learn from the way the providers use technology to teach in the MOOCs?
One of the learning that I gained from the way the providers used technology to teach in
the MOOCs was technology provides an opportunity for many people to have a good
condition. The MOOCs or the Massive Open Online Courses are taught through the
digital platform, requiring the student a computer and internet connection. I have an
online course. The technology used was beyond what a teacher said. I learned my mistake
right there and then, it taught me how to get the correct answers.
3. How will you prepare yourself for MOOCs, as a learner, and as a teacher who may someday
teach a MOOC?
MOOCs had been gaining traction in the distance learning field for quite sometimes now.
There are millions of courses available in the market in platforms like Coursera. Learners
can easily sign up and learn by following the online lessons.
2. Did the teacher ask the class “Did you understand”? If she did, what was the class’ response?
my assign teacher always asking after her discussion if her students understand to her
lessons. And the students always said yes they understand the lesson of their teacher and
after the teacher ask each one of the students about what the teacher said, so she know
who listening her discussion.
3. Did the students make the teacher feel or sense they did not understand the lesson or a part of
the lesson? How?
Yes, the students asking the part of the lesson if he/she did not understand some part of
the lessons.
4. If they did, how did the teacher respond?
She asks the students what part of the lessons they don’t understand, and after the teacher
she repeat again the topic where they don’t understand.
5. Were the students given the opportunity to ask questions for clarification? How was this done?
The students given the opportunity to ask a questions after the discussion of the teacher.
6. If she found out that her/his lesson was not clearly understood, what did teacher do? Did you
observe any of these activities? Please check.
_____ Peer tutoring (Tutors were assigned by teacher to teach one or two classmates
_____ Each-one-teach-one (Students paired with one another
/ Teacher gave a module for more exercises for lesson mastery
_____ Teacher did re-learning
Others, please specify there are teacher that will explain the concept again.
7. If she engaged himself/herself in re-teaching, how did she do it? Did he/she use the same
teaching strategy? Describe.
If the teacher engages in re-teaching, he/she will use another teaching strategy that will
make sure that the student will easily understand. In a way that the teacher will let the
students to do the task outside of the classroom for them to explore new things as their
experiences rather than student staying the classroom and listening only. ____
8. While re-teaching by himself/herself and/or with other students-turned tutors, did teacher
check on students’ progress?
If yes, How?
Yes, as for me, the teacher checked the progression of his/her students in a way that the
teacher does an evaluation to monitor the learning of the students it is the effective way in
assessing the needs of the students.
ANALYZE
1. Why should a teacher find our if students understand the lesson while teaching is in progress?
It is not better to do a once-and-for-all assessment at the completion of the entire lesson?
2. Why is not enough for a teacher to ask “Did you understand, class?” When he/she intends in
check on learner’s progress?
Because learners progress is not just measure through question and answer. Of course,
the learners will not say that they do not understand because they are afraid to be
reprimanded or they just don’t want to prolong the agony of staying in the class longer.
The teacher can check the progress through a test/quiz, performance activity, project
making, and many more. Through these tools, the teacher will be able to tract and
determine the least learned skills. There should always data that will support on how to
assess the learners progress. This way, the teacher will be able to find an intervention to
help the learner understand the subject much better.
3. Should teacher record results of formative assessment for grading purpose? Why? Or why
not?
Yes, for this reason, I believe that the teacher should periodically score and grade their
formative assessment. Personally, I think that it is okay to score and grade formative
assessments. Remember, students are motivated in one to do well. So getting a good
grade or score does not motivate them to try any harder to do better. Some students.
however, are extrinsically motivated. They need that external motivation of getting a
good grades or score to try hard and do their best. For this reason, I believe that the
teacher should periodically score and grade their formative assessments. We must do all
that we can, to teach, reach and motivate all of our students.
4. Based on your observations, what formative assessment practice worked?
Based on my observation, Diagnostic test is the type of formative assessment that works
to help students to improve their learnings this is happen before or during the instruction
where in it helps to identify the strength and areas of improvement for the students and
not counted as a grade.
5. For formative assessment, why is peer tutoring in class sometimes seen to be more effective
than teacher himself/herself doing the re-teaching or tutoring?
Peer tutoring appears to be more effective when the approach supplements or enhance
normal teaching, rather than replace it. This suggest that peer tutoring is most effectively
used to consolidate learning, rather than to introduce new material.
6. Could an unreasonable number of failures at the end of the term/grading period be attributed
to the non-application of formative assessment? Why? Why not?
Formative assessment is tasting the soup while cooking. Reflect on this and write your
reflections. Should you record results of formative assessment? Why or why not

REFLECT
Formative assessment is tasting the soup while cooking. Reflect on ths and write your
reflections.
Should you record results of formative assessment? Why? Why not?
ANALYZE
1. If the student is at the heart of all assessment, then all assessment should support student
learning. Do you agree? Why or why not?
Yes, for the reason that assessment process itself helps the learners develop their critical
thinking and analysis skills. Those skills will help to enhance their ability to learn, adopt
and grow in future classroom as well as in career and life sittings. _
2. Does assessment as learning have the same ultimate purpose as assessment for learning?
No, assessment for learning and assessment as learning has different purpose in teaching-
learning process. I way that AFL is used for received feedback on students learning and
this cannot be counted for a grade but this will of assessment as learning is used to
manage own learning of the students although it also ungraded but it aims to evaluated
your own learning and this involve with self-assessment
REFLECT
The primary purpose of assessment is not to measure but to further learning. Reflect on
your personal experiences of assessment in school. Were you given opportunities for self-
assessment? If yes, what was its impact on your learning?
Physical/Biological
Science/Math/
English/Filipino
ANALYZE
1. Are all the assessment tasks aligned to the learning outcome?
Yes, all the assessment task aligned to the learning outcomes, the teaching methods and
the assessment are aligned to achieve the learning outcomes. Aligning the assessment
with the learning outcomes means that the students know how their achievement will be
measured.
2. What are possible consequences if teacher’s assessment tasks are not aligned to learning
outcome/s? Does this affect assessment results? How?
If assessment is with learning objectives or instructional strategies, it can undermine both
student motivation and learning. In consistency between criteria and assessment leads to
frustration and lack of engagement.
REFLECT
Reflect on past assessment you have been through. Were they all aligned with what your
teacher taught (with learning outcomes?
Answer: Yes, I believe that the teacher constructed assessment that aligned as well as connected
with the learning outcomes they have. All the assessment and the lesson that they discussed are
all aligned and connected with each other.
How did this affect your performance? As a future teacher, what lesson do you learn from
this past experience and from this observation?
Answer: It affects in my performance of improvements and learnings because it gives me
an idea to create the good and effective assessment that will aligned in the learning
outcomes. And as a future teacher, I have learned a lot through my experience from this
observation. There’s a lot of ideas and strategies that comes in my mind during my
observation, that I tell to myself I will apply my learnings in the field of teaching to be an
effective teacher in the future.

6. Others
ANALYZE
1. Which assessment tools/tasks were most commonly used by teacher? Which ones were rarely
used? Why were they rarely used?
One of the assessment tools/task that most commonly used by the teacher is the multiple
choice. As I observed to my resource teacher she often used a multiple choice test every
quiz and during examination for them on how much they understand about the given
subject and also help children to concentrate in this single test. While the assessment task
that are rarely to used is the true or false and the matching type for the reason that this
kind of test is not effectively enough for the students to use their critical-thinking skills.
2. Based on your answers found in the Tables above in which type of assessment tools and tasks
were the Resource Teachers most skilled in test construction? Least skilled?
As I observed my resource teacher is most skilled in constructing a multiple choice test
because this type of test is commonly applied in item placement to the TOS. Least skilled
in creating a true or false and test essay test.
3. Can an essay or other written requirements, even if it is a written paper-and-pencil tests, be
considered an authentic form of assessment? Explain your answer.
:No, as for me, essay and other form of written paper and pencil task are type of
traditional assessment and cannot be considered as an authentic for the reason that
authentic assessment allows the learners to perform or create a product that is meaningful
for them. Based on a real world task or application in real world setting or environments.
Although paper and pencil test can be effective when assessing listening and reading skill
such as speaking and writing.
REFLECT
How good are you at constructing traditional assessment tools? Which do you find most difficult
to construct? Any lesson/s learned?
Answer: For me, I can’t say that I am good enough in constructing the assessment tools. Since, it
is my first time doing it through this observation. I find that the most difficult to construct is the
summative assessment where it will evaluate the learning, knowledge of the students this kind of
assessment include a higher thinking order of the learners and used a standardized test.
2. Performance-
ANALYZE
1. Between analytic and holistic rubrics which one was more used? Why do you think that type
of rubric was used more?
For me, Analytic rubric is more used than Holistic rubric for the reason that analytic
rubric is more reliable that holistic rubrics in this analytic rubric they check the key
content, rather than providing a holistic evaluation. It also provides student with at least
rating score and it is easier to use since it is made up level of scales and descriptor which
is make it easier to rate/score performance.
2. Based on your answers in # 1, what can you say about the scoring rubrics made and used by
the Resource Teacher’s?
I can say that it is a good strategy that the resources teacher used an analytic rubric since
this rubric it provides useful feedback on areas of strength and weakness of the learners
and the criteria can reflect the importance of the work of students to evaluate the
knowledge and learning of students.
3. Will it make a difference in assessment of student work if teacher would rate the product or
performance without scoring rubrics? Explain.
No, the teacher as well as the learners will have a difficulty for an effective teaching-
learning process if there is no rubric when scoring the performance and the works of the
students. It causes a problem to the students for the reason that if there were no rubrics
students cannot identify the necessary data or create plan to solve.
4. If you were to improve on one scoring rubric used, which one and how?
: If I were improving one scoring rubrics, I will choose the holistic rubrics. I will
improve the criteria of holistic rubric for the reason that it does not provide a score on
each individual criterion unlike the general rubric: task-specific rubric and analytic rubric
that provided score in each criterion. In holistic rubric will not be sufficient and helpful
enough in guiding the learners in improving their performance. To improve this rubrics, I
will put add a scoring rubric in each criterion to identifies the strength and area of
improvement based on the criterion.
: No, as for me, essay and other form of written paper- and- pencil task are type of the
traditional assessment and cannot be considered as an authentic for the reason that
authentic assessment allows the learners to perform or create a product that is meaningful
for the based on real world task or application in real world setting or environment.
Although paper and pencil test can be effective when assessing listening and reading
comprehension skills, there are not appropriate assessment methods for performance skill
such as speaking and writing.
6. Can rubrics help make students to become self-directed or independent learners? Do rubrics
contribute to assessment AS learning (self-assessment?) What if there were no rubrics in
assessment?
Yes, rubric has a very helpful to the students it also focusses the effort and self-
assessment as well as allows students to understand what mastery of the content being
studied. If there were no rubrics it will cause the big difficulties in improving their
weaknesses. Students cannot create a plan for their work to be presented.
Does the Scoring Rubric in this FS Book 1 help you come up with better output?
REFLECT
Are authentic assessment tools and tasks new? Reflect on your experiences of tests for all the
years as a student.
Yes, authentic assessment tools/task is a new type of assessment since it started in the
new curriculum where it is not the same before. In this authentic assessment resemble
with reality that the student is able to experience in the work place. As my experience, as
a student before in senior high school, we conducted a work immersion for us to
accomplished the FBS specialization. As expected that we need to do the task that
assigned to us. While the task that assigned in me is doing a skirting and served a food to
the visitors into the celebration party. As I experience that kind of assessment helps me a
lot like I learned new things and discovers other things that I didn’t experience before. I
realized also that the very effective test to be asked to the students is the authentic
assessment for them to experience new things. Unlike before that the teacher only used a
traditional assessment and everything is based on the paper and pencil test.
ANALYZE
1. With OBE in mind, which should be the basis for the selection of pieces of evidence to show
that what the student was supposed to learn was learned?
2. Scrutinize the elements of this portfolio. Based on the parts, under which type of portfolio
does this fall?
Elements of a _______ Portfolio (which type of Portfolio?)

ANALYZE
1. What parts must a TOS contain to ensure test content validity?
Topic, No. of items and the no. of hours are the important part of the TOS
2. Why is there a need for number of items per cognitive level?
It is important to assigned a number of items per cognitive level to ensure that the test
measure the content and thinking skills that the test intends to measure.
3. With OBE in mind, is it correct to put learning outcome not topic in the first column? Why or
why not?
Yes, for the reason that it helps to the students to focus on what is important and it also
considered and inclusive teaching practice as they can help clarify expectation for all
students where the learning outcomes a big role in acquiring expectation.
4. Can a teacher have a test with content validity even without making a TOS?
No, If a teacher issue a test without consulting the table of specification there would be
conflict on whether the content validity is covered for the specific subjects and class. This
also reflect the identification of standard achievement measurements. It also ensures that
a fair representative sample of question will appear on the test. Therefore, it is essential to
refer to standardize pre-conceptualized program which was conducted prior to instruction
and before a test id written.
5. Complete the given TOS.
REFLECT
Read this conversation and reflect on teacher’s assessment practices. Write your reflections here.
Student A: Saan Naaman pinulot ni Teacher ang kaniyang tanong? Ni-isang tanong sa
tinuro, wala ! (Where did Teacher get her test? Not one of what she taught came out!)
Student B: Oo nga! Nakakainis! (You are right! How annoying!”)
Did you have a similar experience? Reflect on it. Will the required used of Table of
Specifications as guide in test construction solve the problem of misaligned tests?
2. Which do you prefer- the old or the new grading system? Why?
Based on my research teacher that I interviewed, she likes to prefer the new grading
system than old grading system for the reason that this new grading system are mostly
effective in students learning development where it focuses in performance task of
learners.
C. Interview of 5 students
1. What do you like in the new grading system?
To know the average of my grades.
2. Do you have problems with the new grading system. If there is, What?
No,
3. Does the new grading system give you a better picture of your performance? Why or why not?
Yes, because it provides directly my average grade.
4. Which do you prefer- the old or the new grading system? Why?
New, because it is easy to compute grades.
4. What descriptors and grading scale are used in reporting progress of learners?
The teacher is using the rubrics where the criteria is the basis to be graded the
performance of the students.
5. What are the bases for learners’ promotion and retention at the end of the school year?
The basis of learner’s promotion and retention are the final grade of 75 or higher in all
learning areas is required to be promoted to the next grade level and the requirements and
decision also where the teacher should decide if the student are pass or failed based on
the grade.
6. What is the report on Learners’ observation values?
Learners must be listened so that they can observe their mistake and correct them same as
the value.
E. Grade Computation
Show sample computations of a grade:
In a subject of your choice from Grades 1 to 6 (if you are a future elementary teacher)
In your specialization if you are a high school teacher)
Show the percentage contributions of written work, performance tasks and quarterly
assessment. Then give the descriptor. Refer to DepEd Order #8, s. 2015.
ANALYZE
Analyze data and information gathered from the interview and from your review of an unused
Student’s Report Card and the DepEd grading system.
1. Do teachers and students like the new grading system? Why or why not?
Yes, for the reason that they can see clearly the result of their efforts and it is focuses for
their performance task where in it is now good for the students because a student-
centered type of teaching.
2. What are the good points of the new grading system according to teachers? According to
students?
The good points of this new grading system it was based on the students’ performance.
The students also can have a self-study and they can manage their time in between of
studying on other works.
3. What are teachers challenged to do by this new grading system?
Teachers was challenged because of the way grades was inputted. They use an online
Microsoft excel in computing grade it is new adjustment for them because it has a big
difference unlike before that they used a class record to input the grade of students. _
4. Do you favor the distribution of percentage of written work, performance tasks and quarterly
assessment?
Yes, I am also in favor about the distribution of percentage of written works,
performance task and quarterly assessment because the Anderson’s and Krathwol’s
cognitive domains was the revised domains of bloom. In their cognitive process
dimension, the remember level was the retrieve and recall.
5. Did you like the experience of computing grades? Why or why not?
Yes, because it is really interesting and also a very challenging to learn for a reason that
is now type of grading system and uses online Microsoft excel that is new for me.
REFLECT
In an era where the emphasis is self-directed learning and demonstration of
competencies- knowledge, skills and values learned (outcomes-based education) – do grades
really matter?
Yes, as for me, it was really matter throughout come based education helps students
really expected that if their work was an efficiently, they expected a higher grade they
will receive. They believe that every works needs a corresponding recognition and
appreciation.

Activity 2 will focus on the Professional Competencies of the Teacher. You change your
sample Teacher in Activity 1 with another teacher or you can still observe the same teacher. In
case you will not change your teacher to be observed the same teacher will be your sample for
both Activity 1 and Activity 2. Aside from direct observation, you will also do a Survey in
Activity 2.
ANALYZE
Did you learn from your observation of the teacher? Now let us analyze the information
that you have gathered.
Answer the following questions.
1. In Activity 1, what do you consider as the 3 most outstanding significant personal qualities of
the teacher you choose as your case? Why do you consider these as outstanding?
a. Acting as a role model
The teacher act as a role model to demonstrate confidence, don’t be afraid and the teacher
their commitment to teach their students.
b. Clear communication
Because it is complex and teachable practice essential for successful officers and leaders
for having communication with her students.
c. Good teachers have Patience
The teacher has patience to concern their students, willingness and knowledge for the
subject being taught. If these characteristics are lacking, a teacher cannot be an effective
educator.
2. Which of these qualities do you have? Do you think you can fit as a good teacher someday?
_______ why? Describe yourself.
No, it won’t fit me as a good teacher someday because I don’t know how to act as a good
teacher act in front of the students.
REFLECT
Good teachers are role models, whether in school, at home or in the community. From the
teacher that you had from elementary to college, did the personal qualities that they possess, help
you learn better as a student?
Identify one personal characteristics of your model teacher that has made a great Impact
in your life as a learner. Reflect and describe how this quality influenced you.
Being kind, caring, and obedient person. This is the great impact in my life as a learner.
Because if one of your teachers is very kind to you and will give you advice and others
that will benefit yourself as a good teacher someday. That is what we will not forget until
we are old.
