Identifying the Purposes of the Instructional Materials

The importance of producing instructional materials is to facilitate the teaching-


learning process. The essence is not to use the instructional materials as objects of decoration
but instructional materials must be utilized for an effective, meaningful, and interactive
teaching-learning engagement.

Purposes of the Utilization of the Instructional Materials

 The instructional materials capture the learners’ interest.

 The instructional materials contribute to the realization of the learning objectives.

 The instructional materials motivate the learners to be engaged in the teaching-learning

process.

 The instructional materials contribute in making difficult concepts easy to understand.

 The instructional materials concretize abstract ideas or make concepts realistic to the

learners.

 The instructional materials afford degree of retention of concepts or ideas.

 The instructional materials make learning more real and meaningful.

 The instructional materials stimulate self-activity on the part of the learners.

 The instructional materials address different learning styles and needs of the learners.

1.3 IDENTIFICATION
Considering the different Principles in Selecting Instructional Materials

While searching for your CT’s instructional materials, make yourself guided by the following
principles in selecting instructional materials (Buno, 2004). Check whether what you have
searched adhere to the given principles:

Yes No
a. Principle of Appropriateness (appropriate to the intended /
learning objectives and level of the learners)
b. Principle of Authenticity (present, accurate, up to date and /
dependable information)
c. Principle of Cost (economical and easy to manipulate) /
d. Principle of Interest (power to encourage creativity and /
imaginative response among the learners)
e. Principle of Organization and Balance (clarity and in /
accordance with the principles of learning such as
reinforcement or transfer)

REEXAMINING YOUR ASSISTING TASK:

In assisting your CT to search for appropriate instructional materials, what


problems have you encountered as regards the principles to apply in the selection of
instructional materials?

We had trouble searching for an instructional material with the principle of


interest. With the technology today it is easy to access materials that is accurate and up to
date, it also just cost less because students don’t need to buy it from bookstores but are
downloadable, with precise keywords these learning materials are aligned with the
principle of organization and balance. It actually took us some time deliberating if the
instructional material can engage students and encourage their creativity given that an
online class is less engaging and we cannot deny the fact that it is sometimes dull. After
quite some time I came with the instructional materials that I think covers not only all the
principle but also is appropriate and match the lesson.

1. Print (Books, Magazines, Newspapers, Printing is used not merely for books and
Posters, Charts) newspapers but also for textiles, plates,
wallpaper, packaging, and billboards. It has
even been used to manufacture miniature
electronic circuits.
2. Chalkboards / Boardwork Chalkboards are a great way to maximize
your students' ability to learn and retain new
information. By writing out key points and
drawing helpful illustrations on the
chalkboard, students are also able to take
better, more accurate notes.
3. Models, Globes, Maps, Realia Maps and globes are tools for planning trips,
learning about faraway locales, and studying
movements of people, goods, and

learner. Audio is especially useful in courses
that require the nuances of inflection, such as
foreign languages, or those that are designed
for non-readers.
5. Videotapes, Films, Videodiscs Video learning is effective on both sides of

Familiarizing with the Rubrics or Scoring Guides

Rubrics as terminology in education refers to the scoring guide used by the teachers in

evaluation criteria at a particular level of achievements and a scoring strategy (Wikipedia).

Study very well the rubrics used by your Cooperating Teacher in evaluating the quality of
students’ constructed response to question especially essays.

Take note of the criteria for scoring the learning outputs both for written work and
performance tasks.

Activity

1. Do you find using or having a rubric/scoring guide useful when you checked
student’s learning outputs? Why?

Yes, using rubrics allows me to swiftly and consistently assess students' learning
outputs from one to the next. Rubrics provide students with valuable information about the
degree of which a specific learning outcome has been achieved. They provide students with
concrete feedback that displays areas of strength and areas in need of improvement. Students can
use this feedback as a tool to further develop their abilities.

2. List down advantages of having rubrics in checking students’ learning output.

 Assist in clarifying hazy aims.

Collecting, Organizing and Recording Practices of Learners Performance Tasks

A teacher must be a good housekeeper of students' records. It is a key responsibility of


every teacher to accurately monitor and record students’ performance output. Therefore, to keep
the tasks manageable and less time consuming, part of the teacher's good housekeeping skill is to
design systematic way of collecting and organizing learners' performance output.
Assist your Cooperating Teacher in organizing the collection of students' learning outputs
by putting them in their designated collection station. Follow strictly and double check your
compliance to your CT's instruction.
 Storage of drawer pocket
 Pocket holder portfolio
 Deep baskets
 Color code filing system
 Homework/project station
 Others
From your own class list, record the learning outputs and performance tasks submitted by
the students. Double check your record before you hand it over to your CT. Arrange the learning
outputs by names or class number for easy recording or follow the manner of recording as
instructed by your CT.

Giving Attention to Basic Safety Issues
Teachers see to it that students' safety is their first priority as soon as they enter
their respective classrooms. As a student teacher, you participate in this responsibility with
your Cooperating Teacher.

Look at the following basic safety issues that you have to assist your CT.

Take a look at your floor for


possible paint, ink or water
spills which might
cause accidents of slip or fall of
the learners. Do something
about it yourself
or summon the custodian for

1. Take a look at your floor for possible paint, ink or water spills which might cause
accidents of slip or fall of the learners. Do something about it yourself or summon the
custodian for assistance
Always check the floor to avoid any accidents such as slip/fall of the students because as a
teacher, their priority first is the safety of the students.
2. Check the students’ tables and chairs if they are still in good condition. Report to the
custodian if there are needs for repair.
It is important to check the student’s table ang chairs because it could result of accidents.
3. See to it that there is proper lighting in the classroom, Report if there is a need for
replacement of fluorescent bulbs
Another thing to check is the proper lightning in the classroom because it is important to
use especially during shady weather.
4. Maintain proper ventilation. Check on the functionality of the electric fans in the room. If
there is a provision for an air-conditioning unit, you may adjust the thermostat. Check on
windows or blinds for a comfortable room temperature.

My Wholesome Future Classroom

A school campus which is conducive for learning is, first and foremost, the environment is
clean. It should also be a child-friendly school. It should have the complete school facilities
such as library, speech laboratory, computer laboratory and other facilities that are also
important or can help on the learning of the pupil. And lastly a conducive for learning campus
is the people who are behind this campus; I mean the teachers, principal and others they
should also be child-friendly people that the pupils will not be threatened by their presence. A
classroom which is conducive for learning is well- lighted and well- ventilated and has the
proper sanitation. It should also be a non-threatening classroom wherein the pupils feel that
they are accepted, they are not alone and nothing is to fear about. And also, teacher should
keep and promote a sound and viable intellectual climate. For me this is the best illustration of
an
effective school environment, where everything is just in one building, also to consider the
safety of the learners. Facilities; like library, laboratories and classrooms are just in there much
accessible by the learner. As a future educator, I can accomplish those things by doing it into
action and become a responsible teacher. I have to show love and care to my pupils in order
for them to feel that they are important as an individual, for them to feel that they really need
to learn from me and that studying is important. I make sure that what I have learned in my
preparatory study well be shared to them properly for them to learn also.

8.1 EXPLOSURE
Knowing and Understating Instructional Routines

You might have noticed that your CT has activities or routines in which students are
asked to be familiar with. These are practices initially taught to the students, constantly practiced
until they become part of the classroom structure during the teaching-learning events.
Instructional routines are research- based, interactive modes intended to engage students and
increase their chances of successful learning by reducing the effort required to learn a procedure
that otherwise may vary by the day, teacher, or lesson (Mussman, 2017).
Here are some definitions of instructional routines:

 Instructional routines or tasks enacted in classrooms that structure the relationship


between the teacher and the students around content in ways that consistently maintain
high expectations of student learning while adapting to contingencies of particular
instructional interactions (Kazemi, Franke, & Lampert, 2009).
 Instructional routines refer to all of the elements of teaching/ learning events other than
the specific content to be taught and the specific materials used in teaching (LEARNNet).

62
8.2 PARTICIPATION
Observing Instructional Routines at Work

Observe carefully the different instructional routines taking place in the classroom during
teaching-learning engagements. List them down and start rehearsing on how you will participate
with your CTs in doing those instructional routines. Pay close attention on how your CT models
the routines.
List of Instructional Routines at Work

1. Entering exited in the classroom.


2. Greetings. (Good morning/Good afternoon)
3. Praying. 4. Arranging sits.
5. Picking up pieces of dirt.

8.3 IDENTIFICATION
Doing Instructional Routines

Perform with your COOPERATING Teacher (CT) in doing instructional routines. Here are some
common instructional routines which your CT might have been doing during his/her class.

 Buzzing Bees
Students mimic the buzzing sound to find a partner in group discussion (specific
instruction will come from your CT).
 Think- Pair-Share
Students individually think about an issue, then refine or broaden understanding through
discussion with a partner and then share to the big class their common understanding
(specific and refinement of the routine will come from your CT).
 Warm Up Routine
Students share understanding of concept by taking turns and saying: You’re the next
_____________ (name of student).

Add and master other instructional routines of your CT and guide the students who
cannot follow the routine.
Take the initiative to review with the class the routines and repeat the routines whenever
they are necessary.

Reviewing Classroom Instruction and Co-Curricular Activities

You have observed you Cooperating Teacher several times in putting order during classroom
instruction and co-curricular activities. Have a mental review of all these activities. List down all
these instructional and co-curricular activities that you remember.

1. Direct Instruction. - Teachers that


employ explicit teaching strategies to
teach a specific skill to their students
are known as direct instructors.
Teacher directed instruction takes
place when a teacher stands in front
of a class and offers info. Examples: -
Introducing content that is utilized to
activate preexisting knowledge in
pupils – Introducing new content and
guiding students through the learning
process using step-by-step
instructions
2. Indirect Instruction- Students
observe, examine, and make
inferences from data through indirect
instruction, which is a student-
centered method to learning.
Professors, rather than providing
direct instruction, play the function
of facilitator or supporter in this
educational style.
3. Interactive Instruction- When pupils learn through social engagement, it is called interactive
instruction. Group discussion, question-and-answer sessions, debates, and tutoring are all
examples of interactive instruction.
4. Independent Instruction-Independent learning is concentrated on the student. It aids in the
development of decision- making skills.
5. Experimental Instruction- Experiential learning is a type of active learning in which students
"learn by doing" and then reflect on what they've learned. Hands-on laboratory experiment While
Co-curricular activities, programs, and learning experiences are activities, programs, and
learning experiences that supplement or mirror what students are learning in school in some way.

REEXAMINING YOUR ASSISTING TASKS:
From your participation tasks of maintaining order during instruction and c0-curricluar activities,
what were the most common problems have you encountered?
-we believe, being inconsistent is one of the most common problems we may
encounter in maintaining order during instruction and co-curricular activities. Consistency in
classroom is very important and behavioral management relates to a steady, unchanging
follow-through on the routines, policies, procedures, and consequences you have established as
a teacher.
There’s no question that extra-curricular is a huge part of a student’s school experience; however
balancing home, social and school life with added extra-curricular commitments can often cause
a responsibility overload. It’s therefore important for your student’s mental and physical well-
being to find a healthy balance between extra-curricular activities and schoolwork. Avoiding
classes with class time is sometimes not an option, but even if a lesson needs to fall during class
time, there’s still plenty to consider such as:
 A student’s preference on which class to disrupt
 Not disrupting the same class on a regular basis
 Upcoming assessments and exams

Based on your observation of your Cooperating Teacher’s classes, write transitional and group
activities he/she has been doing.
 Before Starting the Lesson

My cooperating teacher preparing her teaching and learning activities. It requires having a
planning, one of the planning is the lesson plan.

 During Lesson Proper

My cooperating teacher is now discussing the lesson to the students, she will start with
showing a picture to the students and then after that she will ask some questions too, so that
she will know if that Student are analyzing the picture.

 After the Lesson Proper

My cooperating teacher ask the students about what they have learn and she called random
name to give some recap about what she discusses.

 Before Recess or Lunch Break

My cooperating teacher informed my students about the schedule after recess or lunch so
that the students will be aware of their next class.

 After Recess of Lunch Break

My Learning Progress Notes

Since it was just a class observation, I wasn’t able to participate in a teaching-learning task,
but I have learned that the teachers play an important role during the transition and group
activities. They serve as the guide, the mentor, and the facilitator for the task as well as for the
whole instruction. But, given this fact, the teacher should also take note that students should be
in charge of their own learning. It is said that teachers should not be the sages on the stage but
be a guide on the side. As a guide, they should be there to support their students and make sure
that each one of them is taking part and learning.

Teachers play as vital role in the learners’ academic success. The teachers’ main
objectives are to make everybody learn and to help those who need more assistance in acquiring
new knowledge or in developing fluency in skills. Students’ her academic success does not
happen at the same time and at the same pace. Therefore, every teacher must be an
interventionist with an expertise and intentional strategies so that he/she can support learners
who are demonstrating academic, social, and behavioral struggles.

Facilitating Supervision of Co-Curricular Activities

Confer with your CT his/her expectations on your participation in the supervision of co-
curricular activities. Take note of all her suggestions/ comments/ expectations and also remember
the limitations that your CT sets relative to your supervisory roles.

My Supervisory Roles in Co-Curricular Activities

I should have the characteristics or qualities of an effective and competent supervisor, such as
time management, problem solving, and the ability to delegate, but most importantly, I should
be supportive and prove to the students that I believe in them and that they can do whatever
they want or enjoy by participating in co-curricular activities. I must be a good leader or
supervisor, but I must also be a friend who is always available to them.

My Limitations in my Supervisory Roles in Co-Curriculum Activities

Do not overdo things. Sometimes you have to let students explore and learn by themselves.
But do not forget to lend your arms if they stumble or fall.

REEXAMINING YOUR SUPERVSORY ROLES:
What are some of the critical issues did I face, when I participated in supervising the co-
curricular activities of the students?
In participating the co-curricular activities, there are many that I have experience, I have
encountered so many issues regarding how I participate the said activities. They said that I'm
biased because I have favoritism, and that's not actually true, I handle the activities with fairness
and my aim to that is, I will make sure that every Students is enjoying.

13.4 INTERNAIZATION
Planning for Appropriate and Responsible Supervision of Co-Curricular Activities

When you become a teacher, what will be your plan to make sure that you will accord your
students with appropriate and responsible supervision?

To ensure that my students receive appropriate and responsible supervision during co-
curricular activities, I should ensure that there are enough teachers present to supervise
children in all areas, that we are positioned to see all areas, and that I move around as needed.
When a problem arises, I should intervene and look for ways to troubleshoot. I should also
establish positive verbal and physical interactions with the students. This includes using
positive words to guide the students, speaking in a calm and warm tone and remaining
physically close to them, frequently addressing them by name, using the words please, thank
you, and welcome, kneeling or sitting at the child's level to talk and listen, praising the child
for a new skill or accomplishment, and always smiling. I should also show warm and
responsive affection throughout the activity, which includes comforting an upset, angry, or
hurt child and letting them know that I am there for them. To prevent problems, I need to be
proactive and monitor the children during co-curricular activities. problems from developing.
I should also be assisting them in terms of giving snacks, helping them relax, and
encouraging them by letting them know that I believe in them

occurrence of the other "noise" behaviors was also noted. It may be because, with
close monitoring, the learners were kept busy with the tasks and did not have the time
and opportunity to make noise.
b. The learners were able to complete their assigned task at the end of the session. It
used to be that they were not able to do so within the time given them. Besides, with
monitoring and guidance on difficult tasks, perhaps the pupils understood better what
116
they were working on, and consequently became motivated to finish their tasks.
c. Both Melinda and the observer also noted a decrease in the level of noise during the
conduct of remedial lessons. This is due to the decrease in the number of distracting
behaviors of the learners from Day 1 to Day 6
After analyzing these observations or data, Melinda concluded that the action and the
implementation of the use of guidelines and monitoring pupils in the remedial sessions had a
positive effect. The immediate effect is the decrease of noise level in the classroom. This is so
because the action (monitoring and using guidelines) led to the decrease of incidence of
"noise" behaviors of the students which is creating unnecessary noise during remedial
lessons.
As expected by Melinda, monitoring students' activities in remedial sessions had a
positive effect on learners' behavior. Melinda expects that the effects of monitoring will
eventually lead to improved learning outcomes, as for example, finishing the assigned tasks at
the end of the session.

14.2 PARTICIPATION
Analyzing the Sample Classroom-Based Research

After reading an example of a classroom-based action research, answer the following questions.
Expound and discuss your answers.
 What exactly is the classroom problem that Melinda wanted to help address or solve?
Answer: High noise level
 What processes helped Melinda to think of the possible causes why a problem exists?
Answer: She was advised to go to the library or search the internet to get ideas on how to
best deal with a situation of a similar nature.
 What processes helped Melinda to think of an action, which if implemented, will help
address or solve the classroom problem?
Answer: She observed that there was lack of order or structure in the way the remedial
lessons were conducted. She believed that if an action like setting guidelines and monitoring
the remedial lessons were implemented, the level of noise could be put to a minimum.
 What exactly was the action that Melinda wanted to implement?
Answer: Setting guidelines and monitoring the remedial lessons
 What was the expectation of Melinda regarding the effect of the action she wanted to
implement?
Answer: Melinda believes that there will be better chances for students learning outcomes to
eventually improve.

 What processes did Melinda employ to find out if her expectation regarding the effect of
the action is confirmed?
Answer: -Melinda read to the pupils the guidelines before the start of the remedial lesson
proper.
- While remedial session was going on, Melinda walked around and provided guidance
to each pupil.
- Melinda helped each student who had difficulty with the task.
- Melinda made sure that by the end of the session, she would have monitored what each
learner was doing
 What are the results of the implementation of the action?
Answer: a. There is a decreasing trend in the “talking and walking around the classroom”
noise behaviors from Remedial Session 1 to Remedial Session 6. A decrease in the
occurrence of the other “noise” behaviors was also noted. It may be because, with close
monitoring, the learners were kept busy with the tasks and did not have the time and
opportunity to make noise.
b. The learners were able to complete their assigned task at the end of the session. It used to
be that they were not able to do so within the time given them. Besides, with monitoring and
guidance on difficult tasks, perhaps the pupils understood better what they were working on,
and consequently became motivated to finish their tasks.
c. Both Melinda and the observer also noted a decrease in the level of noise during the
conduct of remedial lessons. This is due to the decrease in the number of distracting
behaviors of the learners from Day 1 to Day 6.
 What are the conclusions deduced from the classroom-based action research?
Answer: As expected by Melinda, monitoring students' activities in remedial sessions had a
positive effect on learners' behavior. Melinda expects that the effects of monitoring will
eventually lead to improved learning outcomes, as for example, finishing the assigned tasks
at the end of the session.

14.3 IDENTIFICATION
Developing an Awareness and Understanding of the Different Process Involved in
Implementing a Classroom-Based Action Research

In reading the sample and in answering the preceding question correctly, you have
actually gained awareness about the processes or stages of classroom-based action research. You
can view the whole process holistically through the conceptual framework of action research
presented below.

119
Following are some important points or requirements about stage.
1. Diagnosing (Identifying/defining the classroom problem)
 Determining what the problem is all about
 Background and rationale for doing that study
 Setting the research questions to be answered
 Setting the conceptual framework of the action research

2. Action Planning (Considering alternative courses of action)


 Looking for possible factors related to the problem
 Establishing alternative actions to solve the problem

3. Taking Action (Selecting the consequences an action)


 Deciding the “best” or most appropriate action to solve the problem
 Advancing expectations as to the effect of the selected action
 Implementing the action and gathering data during implementation

4. Evaluating (Studying the consequences an action)


 Analyzing the date and looking ate the effects of the action
 Analyzing if the data support the expectations advanced earlier or not

5. Specifying Learning (Identifying general findings)


 Reflecting on how the findings will improve education
 Reflecting on the contributions of the research in improving education

14.4 INTERNALIZATION
Identifying the Different Process Involved in Implementing a Classroom-Based Action
Research

On the left column below are the significant stages of implementing an action research based on
the conceptual framework discussed previously. On the right column, describe the process
applied by Melinda in her action research, corresponding to each step/process.
Steps in the Conceptual Framework Corresponding Steps or Process in the
Sample Action Previously Presented Action Research

a. Diagnosing (Identifying/defining the


classroom problem)

b. Action Planning (Considering


alternative courses of action)

c. Taking Action (Selecting the


consequences an action)

d. Evaluating (Studying the consequences


an action)

e. Specifying Learning (Identifying


general findings)

Following are what many authors or experts define classroom-based action research.

 Action research is a form of self-reflective inquiry undertaken by participants in social


and educational situations to improve existing practices (Kemmis as cited by Hopkins,
1986; Nuñez & Navarro, 2015).
 Gay (1966) defines action research as the process of solving practical problems through
the application of the scientific method (in Nuñez & Navarro,2015)

121
 Action research is a systematic study to improve educational practices by groups of
practitioners by means of their own practical actions and reflections or consequences of
their actions (Ebbut in Nuñez & Navarro, 2015)
Some Concepts Common Among the Definitions
1. It is systematic study, a form of inquiry.
2. It is conducted in educational settings like classrooms or schools.
3. It aims to solve problems in education.
4. It aims to improve practices in education.
5. Applies reflection in analyzing the results.
