1. Stating objectives
Yes ma’am
For our objectives for today, Mr. john kindly
read it aloud so that your classmates will A) Comprehend fully the Text Biases.
hear it.
B) Identify which biases did they
applied in a particular situation.

C) Apply the proper and wise decision

making in taking text biases.

Thank you, ma’am

Thank you, Mr. john, for giving the
objectives of our topic. Please be seated.

2. Unlocking difficulties
Using the objectives, you are now having an *Yes, Ma’am!
idea about our topic for today. So, now let us
proceed to our discussion

D. Discussion
(Student raise her hand to answers)
What comes to your mind when you hear
about Bias?
For me ma’am, it is taking sides.

Yes Mr./Ms.
Thank you, ma’am,

Very good idea, please take your seat.

*taking sides is a clue Ma’am. So I think it

is a one sided takers or those what we called
One more? unfair people.

*Thank you, ma’am!

Very good! Thank you, please be
seated!

Bias is a subjective way of thinking that tells

only one sided of a story and sometimes
leading to inaccurate information or false
impression.
In addition, sometimes a person is so biased,
or is leaning so far in one direction, that it's
hard to see the other position, creating yes, ma’am
unfairness in an argument or decision. Did
you get my point?

1. *If he or she is Heavily opinionated or one-

Now, how can we tell if someone is sided.
biased?

*When a person tries to persuade you to

think a certain way with no regard for
Yes, the main one. Another?
factual evidence.

*If a person Presents highly selected facts

that lean to a certain outcome
Yes, that’s one. Addition?

Yes, those are correct. There are a lot

of qualifications in defining a biased
situation or a person.

Okay, I have prepared some handouts to

show to you the different biases that may
affect your decision making. (Student read the text)

The first one is Anchoring, can you please read

the definition.

Yes, in addition bias describes people's

 tendency to rely too heavily on the first
piece of information they receive on a topic.
The second one is? Can someone in the class
read it
The availability heuristic is a type
of cognitive bias that helps us make fast, but
sometimes incorrect, assessments. It
involves relying on information that comes
to mind quickly or is most available to us.

For example: when deciding which laundry

detergent to buy, you may choose Tide
because it comes to mind the fastest. *blue
Another example, class can you give me a * Pink!
color that we can use to pain the wall? *Nude color!

Those answer of yours are

exactly your availability heuristic because Yes, ma’am!

those are the things that comes to your mind
first! Did you get it?

Again, Availability Heuristic is a thing,

person or any situation that comes to your Yes, ma’am!
mind first.

Did you get my point??

(Student read the text)

Next is the Bandwagon effects, kindly read

the definition please.

Yes, for example: Yes, for example:

For Example, When it seems like
everyone is adopting a certain fad Yes, ma’am!
diet, people become more likely to
try the diet themselves. Understand?

(Student read the text)

Next is the Ostrich Effect. Please
read.

And for the fifth one, the Recency. It

is when they make decisions based (Students understands)
on recent events, expecting that those
events will continue into the future.
(Student read the text)
Next is the Selective Perception.
Please read.

1. And lastly, the Stereotyping. A

standardized mental picture that is
held in common by members of a
group. Represents an oversimplified
opinion, prejudiced attitude, or *Yes, Ma’am!
uncritical judgment. Do you
understand the topic?
 Do you have any questions or
clarifications?? * None. Ma’am!

E. Application

Okay, would like to ask again to

Yes, ma’am
please go back to your groupmates
and make a circle.

As we discussed the topic earlier. Since you

now know how to identify the biases we had
discussed. I want you to write the name of a
person in your left side and identify him or
her on what biases she/he had applied and
state the situation bellow. Any situation that
related to the topic will do.

Yes, Ma’am
Did you get it?

Okay! Let your seatmate define you in a

biases she thinks of you.

F. Generalization

I know all of you learned about our

topic for today, is there anyone here
can summarize all of the discussion
about the Understanding Biases in a Yes, ma’am
text?

So as a student, how will you apply * Bias is neither inherently good nor

the a good biases? bad. Biases can clearly come with upsides—
they improve decision-making efficiency.

Biases make decision-making easier by

Any addition? giving us a starting point, an initial
prediction, or a “leaning of the mind”
regarding which choice to make.

What a very good answer, around of (applause)

applause for everyone!

And now, for the last part kindly
