LEARNING EPISODE 9: Preparing For Teaching and Learning

Demonstrating an Understanding of Research-Based Knowledge


Activity 9.1
Principles of Teaching and Learning
Resource Teacher: Angeline B. Sarabia Teacher’s Signature: _____________ School: SJSOF Grade
Year/Level: Grade 7 and 8 Subject Area: Aral. Pan. Date: October

OBSERVE
Observe a class with the use of the principles of learning given in Revisit the Learning
Essentials. I will identify evidence of applications/violations of the principles of learning. I can cite
more than one evidence per principle of learning.

Principles of Learning What did the Resource Teacher do to apply this


principle of learning

1. Effective learning begins with the The teacher presented the learning outcomes through a
setting of clear and high expectations PowerPoint presentation before starting the lesson.
of learning outcomes.
2. Learning is an active process. The teacher involves the whole class in the discussion,
ask questions about the topic, letting them read the
textbooks and asking for their insights about the topic.

3. Learning is the discovery of personal meaning The teacher introduced activities that include
and relevance of ideas brainstorming, reflecting and applying learned
knowledge through tasks.

4. Learning is a cooperative and a collaborative The teacher give activities that include peer-related
process. Learning is enhanced in an atmosphere tasks such as group work, pair/partner, and peer
of cooperation and collaboration. assessment.

ANALYZE
1. What principles of learning were most applied? Least applied?
MOST APPLIED
 Effective learning begins with the setting of clear and high expectations of learning outcomes.
 Learning is an active process.
 Learning is the discovery of personal meaning and relevance of ideas
 Learning is a cooperative and a collaborative process. Learning is enhanced in an atmosphere of
cooperation and collaboration.
LEAST APPLIED
There were no principles that were not applied; all of it was done by the resource teacher.

Give instances where this/these principle/s could have been applied?


There were no instances that these principles were not applied because there are no principles undone based
on my observation.

REFLECT
1. From among the principles of learning, which one do you think is the most important?
Upon observing the most important principle is Learning is an active process. This is where learning begins in
a classroom, with the active involvement of everyone it is easy to convey knowledge to them and assess their
capabilities, strengths and weaknesses. Through this a teacher can identify the ways in creating a learning
environment where students can learn on their own phase, partake in class discussion, participating in activities
and apply their ideas.
Identifying Learning Outcomes that are Aligned with Learning Competencies
Activity 9.2
Resource Teacher: Angeline B. Sarabia Teacher’s Signature: _____________ School:
SJSOF Grade Year/Level: Grade 7 and 8 Subject Area: Aral. Pan. Date: October

OBSERVE
Observe a class, this time focusing on how the learning outcomes were stated. Determine if the
learning the outcome/s was/were achieved or not. Give evidence.
1. Write the learning outcomes stated in the lesson.
(SMART

2. Cite pieces of evidence that these learning outcomes were achieved.

1. The students were able to explain through their own words and understanding the relationship between
human and the environment, in which they were able to give examples throughout the discussion.
2. The students had identified the importance of relationship of human and the environment in creating
ancient civilizations. They were giving their own opinion about the connection of humans and the
environment.
3. The students were able to identify the different Asian Regions as well as the concept of dividing Asia into
different regions.

ANALYZE

1. Do SMART objectives make the lesson more focused?


SMART objective makes a lesson more effective and achievable. It provides clear expectations of the

lesson outcomes; it guides a teacher to execute the lesson thoroughly. Also, by having SMART objective there is

a proper time management each day’s lessons.


REFLECT
Reflect on the

Lesson learned in determining SMART learning


outcomes.

In determining SMART I have learned the following:

1. Objectives should be carefully planned as it will be the reflection of the class discussion.

2. Objectives must be clear and attainable within the allotted time.

3. To create an effective discussion a teacher should develop objectives with SMART

characteristics.

4. Smart objectives help students to focus and be organized.

5. It can ensure student learning.

SJSOF Grade Year/Level: Grade 7 and 8 Subject Area: Aral. Pan. Date: October

OBSERVE
I will observe one Resource Teacher with the use of this observation sheet. Using the guide questions, I
shall reflect on my observations and analysis.

Teacher-centered Student-centered

Did teacher lecture all the time? Were the students involved in the teaching-learning
process? How? Or were they mere passive recipients of
instruction?
No. The teacher did not lecture all the time.

Yes. The students were involved in the teaching and


learning process. They were asking questions
regarding the topic and sharing their insights.

Was the emphasis on the mastery of the lesson or on Was the emphasis on the students’ application of the
the test? Prove. lesson in real life? Give proofs.

The teacher focuses on both. The teacher would give Yes, it also focuses application of the lessons in real

days to test their mastery of the lesson and if they
could get best results from the activity.

Was class atmosphere competitive? Why? Was class atmosphere collaborative? Why?

No, the classroom atmosphere was not competitive, as Yes, the class atmosphere was collaborative. It allows
it promotes collaborative learning instead of pair or group work activities/assessment.
individual learning.

Did teacher focus only on one discipline/subject? Did teacher connect lesson to other discipline/subjects?

No, the teacher did not focus on one discipline. Yes, she incorporates lessons beyond the subject she’s
teaching.

What teaching-learning practice shows that teaching approach was:


a. Constructivist – connected to past experiences of learners; learners constructed new lesson
meanings

b. Inquiry-based – students were persuaded or encouraged to join the discussion, ask questions,
and share their own ideas and observations

c. Developmentally appropriate – learning activities fit the developmental stage of children

d. Reflective – teachers were assessing their own performance of their teaching practice to
determine what to maintain or improve

e. Inclusive – no learner was excluded; teacher taught everybody


f. Collaborative – students work together

g. Integrative –lesson was multidisciplinary – e.g. In science, math concepts were taught.

ANALYZE
1. What are possible consequences of teaching purely subject matter for mastery and for the test?

Teaching students with purely subject matter won’t improve their higher order thinking skills. During exams
if they were taught with purely subject matter students will have difficulty in answering other aspects of the
exam. Students must develop other levels of thinking not just remembering or recalling alone.

2. If you were to reteach the classes you observed, would you be teacher-centered or student-
centered? Why?

To teach children or students is to guide. My own experience of student-centered learning it is more effective
to draw ideas from the students and make them understand the topic which is why I would prefer a student-
centered approach.

REFLECT
Reflect on; Principles of teaching worth applying
Given the different principle of teaching, to effectively teach the students a teacher must acquire various
learning practice. A teacher is not required to apply all the principles but rather to incorporate the principles
properly to teach the students with the goal to have a learner-centered classroom.

information.

ANALYZE
What is the best method of teaching? Is there such a thing?
For me there is no “best teaching method”, when we say teaching method it can be of various ways.
Teachers use different method to adapt with how students learn, it can be recalled that there are multiple
intelligences which can also mean that they were learning differently. Therefore, there is no such thing as the best
method it is because each method has its own strengths.

REFLECT
Reflect on this question.
How do we select the appropriate strategy for our lessons?

To effectively teach a lesson, we must carefully select strategies we would use. Firstly, understand the
lesson plan and its objectives. Identifying the objectives is the paramount to identify the strategies to be used
during the class. It can also help on formulating activities to employ and how to evaluate the students’ knowledge
and skills. These components must be aligned to decide the strategies that will be executed during the lesson.
Activity 10.2 Determining Outcome-Based Teaching and Learning

Resource Teacher: Angeline B. Sarabia Teacher’s Signature: _____________ School: SJSOF Grade
Year/Level: Grade 7 and 8 Subject Area: Aral. Pan. Date: October

OBSERVE
Observe a class and answer the following questions.

1. Did the Teacher state the learning objectives/intended learning outcomes (ILOs) at the beginning of
the class? Did he/she share them with the class? How?

Before the class begins the teacher presented it to the students through a PowerPoint presentation, she let
them read the objectives and explained each of the intended learning.

2. What teaching-learning activities (TLAS) did he/she use? Did these TLAs help him/her attain his/her
lesson objectives/ ILOs? Explain your answer.

The teaching-learning activity was to catch an object; the person who catches the object she tossed will
answer the question. The activity she had given helped her to attain the intended learning objectives.

3. What assessment task/s did teacher employ? Is/Are these aligned to the lesson objectives/ ILOs?

The assessment task given by the teacher was to identify the given pictures and the students were able to
answer it and it is aligned to the ILO’s of the teacher.

ANALYZE
1. What are your thoughts about Outcome-Based Teaching and Learning (OBTL)?

In my opinion, OBTL is a good step to let the student be more active with their studies. It gives opportunity
to students to improve performances through teacher’s feedbacks.

REFLECT
Reflect on the use of OBTL.
Outcome-based teaching and learning is a process of curriculum design that starts with the
development of outcomes. Statements that define what our learners should know and/or be able to do at
the end of a course or program. Teachers became more creative and innovative in measuring the student-
learning. Outcome-based teaching and learning helps in creating an interactive learning environment.
Through OBTL students can learn better and achieve positive results while teachers can assist them to
meet the students’ learning demand.
Activity 10.3 Applying Effective Questioning Techniques

Resource Teacher: Angeline B. Sarabia Teacher’s Signature: _____________ School: SJSOF Grade
Year/Level: Grade 7 and 8 Subject Area: Aral. Pan. Date: October

OBSERVE
Observe a class activity. You shall focus on the questions that the Resource Teacher asks during
the classroom discussion. Write the questions raised and identify the level of questioning.
Types of Question Examples of Questions that the Resource Teacher Asked

1. Factual / Convergent / Ano ang klima? Panahon?


Closed / Low level
2. Divergent / Higher –

d. application Kung ikaw ay pupunta sa isang rehiyon sa Asya saan ito, at bakit?

e. problem-solving The teacher did not use any problem-solving questions.

3. Affective Sumasang-ayon ka ba sa kanyang mungkahi tungkol sa napiling bansa?

ANALYZE
1. Neil Postman once said: "Children go to school as question marks and leave school periods!" Does
this have something to do with the type of questions that teachers ask and t questioning and reacting
techniques that they employ?

A child, in a sense comes to school with a lot of questions in their mind. These questions become their
fuel to learn, discover and find answers to those questions. They go home with a period means that they have
gotten answers to those question marks. Sentences end with periods and these are the answers to the children’s
question. These can also mean that they already have the mastery of reaching to the questions given by the
teacher.

REFLECT
Reflect on: The importance of using various techniques.
Reacting technique is one way of addressing the needs of the students in terms of learning. It is important in
the classroom setting as it can motivate students to respond, improves the quality of their response or answers,
and decreases the chances of students to answer wrong inferences. However, not all students reacts the same way,
there are factors that affect their quality of responses. As a teacher, the goal is to help enhance students’ higher
order thinking skills and with that we must ensure that students’ needs in improving their response and
performance are being meet.

Activity 12.1 Observing Assessment FOR Learning Practices (Formative Assessment)

Resource Teacher: Angeline B. Sarabia Teacher’s Signature: _____________ School: SJSOF Grade
Year/Level: Grade 7 and 8 Subject Area: Aral. Pan. Date: October

OBSERVE
1) Observe what Teacher does or listen to what Teacher says to find out if the students understood the lesson
while teaching—learning is in progress.

What Teacher Said Tally Total

 Naiintindihan niyo ba? III 3

 Ano ang pagkakaintindi mo sa topiko? III 3

What Teacher Did Tally Total

 Discusses the topic. IIIII 5

 Answer students’ question. IIIII 5

 Asked the student to read and explain. IIIII 5

 Let the student copy notes to review.


II 2

 Provides evidences an examples relevant to the


topic. IIIII 5

2) Did the teacher ask the class “Did you understand?” If she did, what was the class’ response?
- Yes she did, the class simply responded with “Yes ma’am”.

3) Did the students make the teacher feel or sense they did not understand the lesson or a part of the lesson?
How?
- No they didn’t since the class responded to the teacher’s questions.

4) If they did, how did the teacher respond?


- Since the class had responded that they were able to understand the lesson the teacher proceeded with the
class discussion and gave a few more examples of the topic.

5) Were the students given the opportunity to ask questions for clarification? How was this done?
- Yes, the teacher answered the students’ question. She answered it one at a time so that they all receive
clarifications to their questions.

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-teaching
Other, please specify ____________________________________________________

7) If she engaged himself/herself in re-teaching, how did she do it? Did he/she use the same teaching
strategy? Describe.
- She used different teaching method that is suitable for the students so that they can easily understand the
lesson.
8) While re-teaching by himself/herself and/or with other students-turned tutors, did teacher check on
students’ progress? If yes, how?
- The teacher did not use this method.

ANALYZE
1) Why should a teacher find out if students understand the lesson while teaching is in progress? Is it not
better to do once-and-for-all assessment at the completion of the entire lesson?
- It is important for the teacher to know if his/her students follow on what he/she discusses to ensure that they
understood and to avoid repetitive discussion and to resolve misunderstanding during the class.

2) Why is not enough for a teacher to ask “Did you understand, class?” when he/she intends to check on
learner’s progress?
- It is not enough to just simply ask students questions answerable by yes or no. this is not a solid evidence of
learning, if a teacher wants to ask or check on students understanding they should use questions that can
actually expound students’ answer.

3) Should teacher record results of formative assessment for grading purpose? Why or why not?
- No, formative assessment are there to check on the initial understanding of the students. it can be used to
identify what should be done to have the students improve their results on the formative assessment.

4) Based on your observations, what formative assessment practice worked?


- The teacher instructed the students to answer the questions before starting the class.

5) For formative assessment, why is peer tutoring in class sometimes seen to be more effective than teacher
himself/herself doing re-teaching or tutoring?
- Peer tutoring promotes higher rates of student participation, this help boosting their academic performance.
This can also test students' different abilities that can improve their retention.

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 or why not?
- Yes, it can be an indicator that students were not able to comprehend the lesson and that the teaching methods
are ineffective or monotonous.
REFLECT
1) Formative assessment is “tasting the soup while cooking”. Reflect on this and write your
reflections.
- From this we can extract the idea that it is not yet done but we have to check on what is lacking and
what do we have to do or add to make the soup taste good. It can be determined that to ensure
student learning we must use formative assessments to determine what we must apply to to give their
educational needs. We should be aware of what we were doing less to give their educational needs.
We should be aware of what we lack, give a proper action to it and to have good results.

2) Should you record results of formative assessment? Why or why not?


- Yes, we should record formative assessments. This can be the basis to see students' improvement.
Also, it can be used to track if they are aligned with their own objectives.
SHOW Your Learning Artifacts
1. Snapshots of peer tutoring or other activities that show formative assessment in practice

3. Did students record and report their own learning? No, the students did not record their own learning.

4. Did the teacher create criteria with the students for Yes, the teacher give criterias & rubrics that will be
tasks to be completed or skill to learned? the basis of students in creating their tasks.

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, the main purpose of assessment is to improve student learning. And teachers are responsible for students to
attain this knowledge.

2. Does assessment as learning have the same ultimate purpose as assessment for learning?
- Assessment as learning encourages and promotes students' metacognition as they learn. This assessment is to
foster students learning. On the other hand assessment for learning helps students in understanding their goals and
the necessary to reach it.

REFLECT

The primary purpose of assessment is not to measure but not 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?

- We were given a chance to self-assess our performances and it helped us to keep ourselves on checked if we
are obtaining the learning goals we are supposed to meet. It was a big help for us to know our strengths and
weaknesses that are needed to maintain and improve.

2. Performance NOT OBSERVED NOT OBSERVED NOT OBSERVED NOT OBSERVED

ANALYZE
1. Between analytic and holistic rubrics which one was more used? Why do you think that type of
rubric was used more?
 Except with the one used on the activity above, analytic rubric was widely used by teachers when they need
to rate the student output. As an example, analytic rubric with a scale of 1 to 5 and each scores has
corresponding description of the score value. It will be much easier to use since teachers can easily identify
what score to give to the students based on their works/output.

2. Based on your answer in #1, which can you say about the scoring rubrics made and used by the
Resource teacher?
 My resource teacher did not use analytic rubric but rather holistic rubric to score students work. Despite, she
explained each criterion to the students.

3. Will it make a difference in assessment of students work if teacher would rate the product or
performance without scoring rubrics? Explain.
 Yes it will make a great difference, if a teacher does not use a rubric she/he has the freedom to exceed the
score of students or even lower it down to her own contentment. This is unfair since she is not basing any of
his/her scores to certain rubric.

4. If you were to improve on one scoring rubric used, which one and how?
 If I were to improve a scoring rubric it will be the holistic rubric. As known, it is a generalized rubric that
will be the basis of rating, instead of just generally putting a description on the categories I will put a
bulleted content, e.g. Creativity: a) Color, b)Design c) Organization

5. Can an essay or other written requirements, even if it is a written paper-and-pencil test, be


considered an authentic form of assessment? Explain your answer.
 Yes, it can be considered as authentic assessment since the students can use their knowledge from the
previous lesson, it can also students’ understanding if they have really acquired data from the previous
lessons and apply it in the current assessment.

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 students can use rubrics to become self-directed and independent learners. This will be their guide on
how they will finish their work, how are they going to organize the content of their task. If they don’t have a
rubric to be their guide on doing so they will have no idea on what they will put in the task given.
7. Does the Scoring Rubric in this FS Book 1 help you come up with better output?
 Yes, it helps to have better output because I have the idea on what I should answer or put in the activities
given in my worksheets. And because of the rubric we become more prepared on what to do next.

REFLECT

Are authentic assessment tools and tasks new? Reflect on your experiences of tests for all the years
as a student.
 No, it is not new from my experience as a student. We were given tasks and assessments wherein we can
use our own experiences or even apply our responses to the questions in real life. As the definition suggest,
an authentic assessment is where students can reflect in real life the activities or lessons being taught.

OBSERVE
1. Ask your Resource Teacher for samples of portfolio, if any. If there are, select one best portfolio
from what you examined.
2. If none, research for a sample portfolio and include them in My Learning Artifacts.
3. Based on the sample portfolio given by your Resource Teacher/researched by you, accomplish
Observation Sheet #
4. Put a check in the right column.
What a Portfolio Includes

Elements of Portfolio Present? Missing?


1. Clear objectives –The objectives of the √
lesson/unit/course are clear which serve as
bases for selection
2. Explicit guidelines for selection — What, √
when, where, how are
products/documented performances
selected?
3. Comprehensible criteria- the criteria √
against which the portfolio is graded must
be understood by the learner
4. Selective significant pieces - The portfolio √
includes only the selected significant
materials.
5. Student's reflection - There is evidence that √
students reflected on their learning.
6. Evidence of student participation in √
selection of content of portfolio There is
proof that students took part in the
selection of the content of the portfolio.

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?

 The basis for selection of pieces of evidence to show that what the students are suppose to learn was learned
are the activities or tasks that was given which are suited to the objectives and these objectives should be the
basis of how to assess students work to prove their learning.

2. Scrutinize the elements of this portfolio. Based on the parts, under which type of portfolio does this
fall?
 From the elements available above, I think this is categorized as developmental or growth portfolio because
there are pieces of evidence that students reflect themselves about what they learned from the lesson.

Elements of a DEVELOPMENTAL/GROWTH Portfolio (Which type of portfolio?)

1. Cover Letter- “About the Author” and “What My Portfolio Shows About My Progress as a Learner”

2. Table of Contents with numbered pages

3. Entries-both core (required items) and optional items (chosen by students).


4. Dates on all entries to facilitate proof of growth over time.

5. Drafts of aural/oral and written products and revised revisions, i.e. (first drafts and corrected/revised versions.

6. Student's Reflections

3. Where and when does the teacher make use of each of the 3 types of portfolios?
 There are different types of portfolios and each of these is used in different times in specific reasons. Firstly,
developmental/growth portfolio, it is used by teachers to check on the progress of student learning. Second,
showcase/display portfolio, students were task to create a portfolio that shows their skills and talents on a
particular matter. Lastly, he evaluation or assessment portfolio, it is when the teacher uses the portfolio to
assess or evaluate students’ learning from beginning and end of the lesson. This is also used to identify if the
objectives in the lesson were met.

REFLECT
Have portfolios made the learning assessment process more inconvenient? Is the effort exerted on
portfolio assessment commensurate to the improvement of learning and development of learners'
metacognitive process that result from the use of portfolio?
 The portfolio assessment has made the learning assessment process more convenient because it is easier to
check on the progress of the students and their development through the different types of portfolio. Yes.
The efforts exerted on the portfolio assessment commensurate the improvement of learning and development
of learner’s metacognitive process. This are also evident on their reflections right after creating the tasks.

1. Cognitive skill had the highest number of assessment questions? lowest number?
 The cognitive skill that highest number of assessment question is remembering and the least number of
questions is applying.

2. What do these (lowest and highest number of assessment questions) reveal about Resource
Teacher's level of questions?
 The teacher’s level of questions does not give opportunity to improve students’ higher order thinking skills
as most of the questions were focused on remembering and understanding.

3. Based on Kendall's and Marzano's taxonomy, which are the highest cognitive skills? Give an
example of an assessment question for each of the two highest cognitive skills- metacognitive skills
and self-system thinking.
 The highest cognitive skills based on Kendall and Marzano’s taxonomy are metacognitive and self-system
thinking wherein the teacher will give questions that will reflect their gained learning and understanding
from the lesson.
a. Metacognitve – What steps should be used to reach our desired goals?
b. Self – system thinking – What activities I have participated that contributed my growth and development?

REFLECT
If you were to rate yourself on HOTS - where will you be from a scale of I to 5 (5 as highest) where
will you be?
 If I were to rate myself on using HOTS I will give myself a 3, it is because despite being aware of how to use
HOTS I am still lacking on some areas and these areas needs improvement enable for me to master using
HOTS and score myself 5.

As a future teacher, reflect on how will you contribute to the development of learners' HOTS?
 As a future teacher, enable to develop my students HOTS I will use questions and assessments that will
include real life experiences enable for them to think critically on the given examples or situations. This will
not only enhance their understanding but also it will improve their ability in decision making.

ANALYZE
1. What parts must a TOS contain to ensure test content validity?
 All parts of the TOS are important in creating assessments to ensure the content validity because it
will be used as the guide in creating questions for students’ assessment.

2. Why is there a need for number of items per cognitive level?


 This will be use to identify how much will be measured in each cognitive skills. This will be also
use as a guide where to put items that shows the objectives.

3. With OBE in mind, is it correct to put learning outcome not topic in the first column? Why or why
not?
 Yes, it is correct to put the learning outcome instead of the topic this will be used to identify what
our goal is at the end of the lesson.

4. Can a teacher have a test with content validity even without making a TOS?
 No, a teacher must use a TOS to ensure content validity of the assessment. A teacher must
formulate a table of specification before creating assessments to ensure its validity, if the teacher
did not use TOS his/her assessment items is not or may not be reliable and valid.

REFLECT
Read this conversation and reflect on teachers' assessment practices. Write your reflections.

Student A:Saan naman 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:Oonga.! Nakakaiinis! (You are right! How annoying!")

Did you have a similar experience? Reflect on it. Will the required specifications as guide in test
construction solve the problem of misaligned tests?
 Yes we were in the same situation wherein we don’t have any idea where did our teacher take some
of the questions she wrote in our assessment. What we did is context cluing and also answering the
items in which we had reviewed so that we can finish our assessment. This is why TOS is very
important; it will organize the formulation of questions as well as including every learning outcome
that were taught during the lesson. If all of the objectives were included in making the TOS it will
be much easier to identify and organize the questions.

Activity 13.7 Computing Student’s Grades based on DepEd Grading System

Resource Teacher: Angeline B. Sarabia Teacher’s Signature: _____________ School: SJSOF Grade
Year/Level: Grade 7 and 8 Subject Area: Aral. Pan. Date: October

OBSERVE
A. Sample Students' Report Card
1. Secure a sample of a Students' Report Card from your Resource Teacher.
2. Study a sample of an unused Student's Report Card. Observe its contents.
3. Ask permission from your Resource Teacher for an interview with him/her and with a group of students
regarding the new grading system.
B. Interview of Resource Teacher

1. What are the new features of the latest grading system? What things are you required to do
with this new grading system which you were not asked before?
 In the new grading system, students’ grades are accomplished by their weighted raw scores in collective
assessment. However, the passing grade for each subject is 60. These 60 marks in the E-Class record are
transmuted to 75 in the students’ report card.
Written works shall be administered to assess essential knowledge and understanding through quizzes and
long quiz.
Performance tasks shall be assessed how learners show what they know and are able to do in diverse
ways. They may create or do performance based tasks including skill demonstrating, group presentations,
multimedia presentation and oral works. It is very essential that the rubric to be used is clear to the learners.
Quarterly assessments are administrative every end of the quarter.

2. Which do you prefer -- the old or the new grading system? Why?
 I prefer the new grading system because it’s easy to compute the grades since it’s already electronic unlike
before you have to do it manually.

C. Interview of 5 Students

1. What do you like in the new grading system?


Student 1: Mas okay ang new grading system.
Student 2: Biskan 89.5 ginabaton sa honor roll
Student 3: Taas ron ang performance.
Student 4: Gabawi ang performance.
Student 5: Kung sipsip kaw gataas ang grades mo.

2. Do you have problems with the new grading system? If there is, what?

D. Review of DepEd Order # 8, s. 2015

Read DepEd Order # 8 s. 2015. You may refer to Appendix A.


Based on DepEd Order 8, s. 2015, answer the following:

1. What are the bases for grading?


 According to D.O. No. 8 s. 2015, the bases for grading are the Components of Summative Assessment.
Summative assessments are classified into three components, namely, Written work (WA), Performance
Tasks (PT), and Quarterly Assessment (QA).

2. How do you compute grades per quarter for Grades I to 10 and Grades 11 to 12?Give an example.
GRADES 1 TO 10

FOR GRADES 11 TO 12

3. How do you compute grades at the end of the school year?


 For

Kindergarten – there are no numerical grades in kindergarten. Descriptions of the learner’s progress in the
various learning areas are represented using checklists and student portfolios. These are presented to the
parents at the end of each quarter for discussion. Additional guidelines on the kindergarten program will be
issued.
 For Grades 1 to 10
a) The average of the quarterly grades produces the final grade.
b) The general average is computed by dividing the sum of all final grades by the total number of
learning areas. Each learning area has equivalent weight.
c) The final grade in each learning area and the general average are reported as whole numbers.
 For Grades 11 to 12 – the two quarters determine the final grade in a semester.

4. What descriptors and grading scale are used in reporting progress of learners?
 The summary of learner’s progress is shown quarterly to parents and guardians through parent-teacher
conference, in which the report card is discussed. The grading scale with its corresponding descriptors such
as; a) Outstanding – 90 to 100;Passed, b) Very Satisfactorily – 85 to 89;Passed, c) Satisfactory – 80 to
84;Passed, d) Fairly Satisfactory – 75 to 79; Passed, e) Did not meet expectations – below 75; Failed.
Remarks are given at the end of the grade level.

5. What are the bases for learners' promotion and retention at the end of the school year?
 A final grade of 75 or higher in all learning areas allows the student to be promoted to the next grade level.
For learners grades 1 to 3 retention and promotion

6. What is the report on learners' observed values?


 The learners observed values are based on the DepEd Mission, Vision and Core values.
 Schools may craft additional indicators for the behaviour statements. Schools must ensure that these child-
centered, gender fair, and age-and culture-appropriate. To support the development of these core values ,
schools must make sure that their homeroom guidance program promotes them. Additional opportunities
may be integrated into class discussions in all learning areas.
 A non-numerical rating scale will be used to report on learner’s behaviour demonstrating the core values.
The class adviser and other teachers shall agree on how to conduct these observations. They will also discuss
how each child will be rated.
Marking Non-Numerical Rating

AO Always Observed
SO Sometimes Observed

RO Rarely Observed

NO Not Observed

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.
Araling Panlipunan
Written work (30%) – ensures that students are able to express skills and concepts in written form.
Performance task (50%) – allows learners to show what they know and are able to do in various ways.
Quarterly assessment (20%) – it measures student learning at the end of the quarter, these may be in
forms of objective test, performance-based assessment or a combination thereof.
ANALYZE
Analyze data and information gathered from the interview and from your review of an unuse Student's
Report Card and the DepEd grading system.
1. Do teachers and students like the new grading system? Why or why not?
 The teachers and students like the new grading system, through the interview most of them chose the new
grading system.
2. What are the good points of the new grading system according to teachers? According to students?
 Based on the interview conducted it is more convenient and easy to use for teachers and for the students
they can fill in the missing grades through excelling in the three categories of grading.
3. What are teachers challenged to do by this new grading system?
 Some teachers’ struggles on using the new grading system since it is done electronically and some of
them were a little behind when it comes to using digital tools. Yet, they were favoured since it is
automatic and not manually done.
4. Do you favor the distribution of percentages of written work, performance tasks, and quarterly
assessment?
 Yes, it is because it is equally distributed to specific subjects just like 30-50-20 for subjects like
Languages, Araling Panlipunan and Filipino. Students can work on WA and PT to have high grades.

5. Did you like the experience of computing grades? Why or why not?
 As of now I haven’t tried to compute the students grade yet but by knowing the process and
understanding how it should be done I am looking forward on doing it during my internship.

REFLECT
In an era where the emphasis is self-directed learning and demonstration of competencies – knowledge,
skills and values learned (outcome-based education)- do grades really matter?

 Yes, grades do matter it shows the collective effort of students in their studies. Although in this era where
the emphasis is different grades is still a part of it, most likely it is the driving force of students to perform
their best in their subjects. By doing this, it also targets areas such as knowledge, skills, and values –
students who are motivated by achieving higher grades will perform their best in their subjects, or any
tasks given.

Interview with Resource Teacher

1. How do you give feedback to your students regarding their performance? When do you give feedback?
 Not observed. Resource teacher does not have advisory class.
2. How do you report students' performance to parents? Does the school have a regular way of reporting
grades to parents?
3. What problems on grade reporting did you encounter with parents? How did you address
Interview with Students
1. Do you see the meaning of your grades in the School Report Card?
 According to the student I interviewed, they do see the meaning of their grades on the report card
in which they took motivation to improve their performance and give a much satisfactory
performance.
2. Does knowing your grade motivate you to work harder?
 Yes, based on her answer if she saw that her grades were above average she feels motivated to
maintain her performance and also with the goal to improve and attain higher grades.

Interview with Parents


1. Does your child's Report Card give you a clear picture of how your child is performing?
 According to them, yes, it reflects their child’s performance and they can see if they were doing
good or not.
2. If you were asked what else should be found in the Report Card, which one? Why?
 For them, they would like to see remarks/comments of teachers about their children on their
individual performances, attitudes, learning level and also suggestions of teachers on what to
improve and what to maintain.
3. Do you find the Card Distribution Day important? Why or why not?
 Yes, they find card distribution day important, it is because they will know how their children
performed in school did and also to know what they would do to help their children.
4. Any suggestion on how to make Card Distribution more meaningful?
 There were no further suggestions about the distribution process.

ANALYZE
1. What were the most common issues raised on students' performance?
 The students’ participation as well as their presence of mind during lectures they were only active
during activities that require physical activity yet during oral recitations they refuse or they
participate lesser.

2. Based on your observations and findings, what practices must be


a) maintained and
b) improved to make grades and reporting meaningful?
 Based on my observation, the practices that teachers must maintain are transparency between
parents and teachers. In terms of their teaching practices they should maintain their positive
working attitude despite of hindrances faced every day. As of now, there were no suggestions for
improvement.

REFLECT
1. Grades are often a source of misunderstanding. How should I do reporting so that it will result to
effective learning?
 Grades are often cause of misunderstanding if they weren’t informed about it. enable for teachers
to avoid misunderstanding they should practice transparency and honesty between the students’
parents. They must lay down the processes in solving their grades, where do they get this and
how they would score it. through this parents won’t question the teacher why their child’s
performance is low, but instead they would question their students why and how do they perform
at school to end up with such grades.

will not change your teacher to be observe 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 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 chose as your case? Why do you consider these as outstanding?
a. Knowledgeable
b. Cooperative
c. Dignified
As a teacher, you must inculcate knowledge to your students and being knowledgeable in the
field you are teaching is important. This teacher has exuded such character and effectively done it which
served as great help to the students. She is also cooperative with her students, colleagues and also with
the administration which is a quality she must have from the quote “No man is an island” it is also
applicable in the school setting. It is better that there are people who can back you up when you need
help to. Lastly, she is dignified with the work she is doing. She holds up the character of a teacher in a
any situation which creates a proper teaching-learning environment.

2. Which of these qualities do you have? Do you think you can fit as a good teacher someday?
__________ Why? Describe yourself.
Determined- I feel like this is the quality I possess which makes me qualified to be a teacher
someday. It is because despite of all difficulties and hardships I still keep on striving to achieve my long
term goal which is to become a successful teacher who can impart knowledge to students who aspires to
become someone someday just like the person who I am today.
REFLECT
Good teachers’ models, whether in school, at home, or in the community. From the teachers that
you had from to college, did the personal qualities that they possess, help you learn as a student?
- Yes, having their own distinct personal qualities makes them an inspiration to me. They inspired me
to be the best on what I can do. They influenced my beliefs on learning, as well as on dreaming and
how to achieve the dream that I have been aiming.

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.
- Versatility, this teacher had really helped on influencing my character especially that I am now in
my field study. She taught us how to balance being a teacher and a friend o your students. She
showed the qualities of a good teacher not by being strict nor dictatorial but rather she lets us enjoy
the class together with her. She executed her lessons properly while also having the best out of it.
She is versatile in a way that she quickly adapts to the atmosphere that the class is giving; she can
ride with the fun that her students make without making any remorseful remarks. She is embodying
every students wish to have in a teacher, which influenced me on aspiring to become like her ways
when I will be the one teaching my own students.

1. Based on your findings and observations in Activity 16.1 and Activity 16.2, which philosophies
of education are dominant in Philippine basic schools? Why do you say so?

 Based on the previous activities the philosophies that were dominant in the Philippine education
are progressivism, rationalism, and constructivism. It is commonly done by teachers to students
since it emphasizes learner-centered education. Also it allows growth of students as well as the
teachers during or after the class instruction.
2. If there is one philosophy that schools and teachers should give more attention to, what should
that be and why?

 For me, maybe it is empiricism. It is important to give attention to the senses that we don’t
usually see but we do feel. This 21st century a lot of students changed, different from the era
before there are a lot of possibilities that students may be suffering that the school should be
concerned so that they can take part on giving action to prevent any inconveniences in the future.

My Philosophy of Teaching

These may be help of:


I believe that the learner is a blank canvas. They become a masterpiece after being tend to by the artist, its
painting paraphernalia, the artist’s creative mind and its passion to create a masterpiece for the world to see. A
learner may be a blank canvas but they can be beautiful masterpiece after being cared of.

I believe that I should teach the learners the essentials in learning, which means that every bit of ideas and data
that can help them grow into a masterpiece should be given to them.

by learning and mastering the subject I will teach them also by incorporating lessons that are helpful for their self
growth enable for them to be fully aware of their surroundings and themselves.

I believe that I should be able to take part on the struggles and hard work of those who supports the students on
the journey towards their goals in life.
