Instruction:
I. Write your reflection for Chapter 1 and 2. All responses are to be typed directly on this form and start
your responses on a new line, not on the same line as the question. Failure to follow these directions
could result in an unacceptable submission.
Chapter 1 – Reflection:
-Base your reflection on the previous reflection question provided.

John Locke's theory of education, which emphasizes sensory experience and observation as
essential for knowledge acquisition, is the most valuable educational philosophy in my opinion.
This strategy is crucial as we go from online learning to traditional classroom instruction. In
order to effectively implement Locke's theory, it is crucial to comprehend students preferred
learning styles. As an educator in the future, i can encourage a more effective and interesting
learning experience by creating a safe and comfortable learning environment. My grasp of
many educational ideologies, including utilitarianism, experiential learning, social
reconstructionism, and critical pedagogy, was also expanded by this session. It emphasized the
value of accepting many viewpoints and modifying teaching strategies. The lesson also
emphasized the importance of social justice, critical thinking, linkages to the real world, and
experiential learning in school.

Chapter 2 – Reflection:
Guide questions:
1. Should college education be for all Filipinos? Isn’t giving access to college education for one who
is not intellectually capable a waste of time and resources?

-Yes, as everyone deserves education and everyone has the right to study. This makes
them more open to the outside world and more understanding of things such as science
and technology, and other people can understand the risk and not believe in
pseudoscience. If people are learning, there is no resource that goes to waste. Every
time a person learns, they are growing and excelling. The knowledge that they acquire is
 evidence that the resources are worth it. Time is the ultimate truthteller; it will take
time, but eventually what happens in the end is all worth the time and resources.

1. Of the developments in Philippine education in the post-colonial period, which to you is most
important? Why?

-I think it is important that education at that time was based on tradition, which reflects the way
of life before. If I am not mistaken, the education before that was based on the alphabet was
called alibata or baybayin. which means to spell. The purpose of baybayin before was to tell
folktales, record transactions, and also write songs. My favorite part of this education is that it is
still practiced today and reminds us of our whole culture before the colonization.
