 Definition
(Drew, 2023) Defines that Generalization is a
psychological phenomenon whereby people transfer
what they have learned in one context to other
situations. Thiss process may helps the individual
become more adaptive, allowing them to quickly
develop news skills and knowledge with minimal effort.
 The Department of Education (DepEd) emphasizes the
importance of the Generalization phase in lesson design as a vital
component of ensuring that students have relevant learning
experiences. According to DepEd's curriculum frameworks and
requirements, the Generalization phase is the stage at which
students extend and apply their newly acquired information,
abilities, and understandings to real-life circumstances. It serves
as a link between theoretical knowledge and practical application,
allowing students to demonstrate their understanding and
mastery of class goals in a variety of circumstances.
 The generalization phase may be related to
attaining the Higher Order Thinking Skills
(HOTS) of the lesson. In this phase, students
are being asked to dig deeper with their
understanding of the subject matter, and this
will extract their creative juices when it
comes to analyzing or making inferences about
the subject matter itself.
Examples
Musical talent:
An individual learns how to play the piano by drilling
around specific notes, chords, and finger positions until the
pattern is ingrained in their memory. Eventually, this skill can
be applied to more complex pieces of music without relearning
patterns each time. Furthermore, when learning guitar, they
can generalize their understanding of music more easily and
learn faster.
 In conclusion, the generalization phase in lesson
design focuses on encouraging students to become
independent thinkers and active participants in their
own learning journeys. It gives emphasis on the
application and transfer of knowledge, skills, and
understandings to real-life contexts strives to
provide students with the abilities required to
succeed academically, professionally, and personally in
the twenty-first century.
