To educate is to become a better educated. It is circular process that improves

with time; I believe the responsibility of educators is to provide students with the
necessary knowledge and skills to succeed in academic, business and personal arenas.
My teaching philosophy is based on the belief that education is a solution to many social
problems. Education provides the tools to make informed decisions, synthesize ideas,
and critically evaluate relevant issues and to enjoy life. Therefore pursuing knowledge
and working to improve my skills as an educator are among my highest priorities.

As an educator, I will strive to encourage excellence in my students and

myself. Course material should be challenging, interactive and relevant to current issues
and events. Students learn and retain more information if the material is presented in an
environment that is interesting and interactive. For this reason, I believe that using a
variety of multimedia including video, slides, and the internet, is an effective way to
complement traditional course lectures remains the foundation of the educational
experience. I feel that I can encourage students to seek new knowledge and explore
their own ideas by an enthusiastic presentation of both what is. And what is not known
about subjects. When appropriate, the classroom setting should be expanded to include
experience in the field. What better way to make the necessary connections among
biological concepts than by observing how organisms interact with their environment?

In my interaction with students, I will strive always to be respectful, especially when

dealing with differing opinions that may arise as product of scientific thinking. I want my
student to learn to think critically, not merely to accept my ideas and opinions; my drive
to pursue higher education was due in part to several teachers who inspired catalyst for
other people to pursue their dreams.

“Plants are shaped by cultivation and men by education. .. We are born weak, we
need strength; we are born totally unprovoked, we need aid; we are born stupid, we need
judgment. Everything we do not have at our birth and which we need when we are grown
is given us by education.”

(Jean Jacques Rousseau, Emile, On Philosophy of Education)

As I visit and observe the different learning resource center, the learning resources
that were available or present were computers, textbooks, magazines, newspapers,
television, articles, DVD player, tapes and etc… All materials were properly arranged
according to their types and functions. It seems that all materials have a proper
maintenance because they were free any dust.
 Every learning resource center has its own guidelines or procedures and also rules.
Those guidelines or procedure and rules do not involve great exertion or discomfort on
the part of the users because they were just easy to adhere or practice.

The learning resources/materials are arranged properly according to their functions and
characteristics. The books, magazines, and other printed materials are arranged
properly in the shelves and the ICT and other electronic resources are place in the safe
area.

The guidelines and procedures facilitate easy access to the materials by the teacher
because they may just directly borrow or use the material wit
h the librarian’s
permission. Computers, stereos, television may only be used inside the library.

The learning resource center was clean, the resources/materials and conducivefor
learning for the learners who are wanted to study inside the library. Therefore,
thelearners can easily access information from the learning resources

There are some specific areas in the library that I thought it have not beenchecked es
pecially at the books’ area which are not necessary use be the learners.
There are some parts of the shelves that have been destroyed

What suggestions can you make?

As learning resource center, my suggestion is that the cleanliness should
bemaintained. The learning resources/materials should be always safe and good
conditionshould always be maintained so that it still useful to the succeeding generation
of thelearners.

BULLETIN BOARD DISPLAYS

Target Competency

At the end of this activity, you should be able to appraise the effectiveness of
bulletin board displays as learning resources.

Specific Tasks

1. Look around a school’s/ classroom’s bulletin board displays.

2. Evaluate the displays.

Describe the bulletin board you have observed.

The location of the board displays in school was located near the entrance gate. Most of
it was announcements, activities or events in school and etc… The announcements were
written in a formal way that everyone can quickly and clearly understand , the information
were arranged past to latest and the materials used have a high quality that can last for
a longer time. Messages were clear enough and it can be easily understood because
there were no misspelled words or any inconsistencies in grammar.

As I look around and examine the board displays, I have found out that every classroom
has its own board display. Some classrooms have a bulletin board for birthdays of
students, classroom cleaners, classroom officers, classroom activities and
announcement and the most common was the board display that contains the topics to
be discussed in a certain grading period. The messages are simple, clear, precise and
consistent. The color and designs are not that good but always suit the interest to the
students and to the teachers as well. It is well-expressed.

The Bulletin Board in the classroom is attractive and well-structured. The objects are
arranged properly, the font size is suitable and it message can read from a good
distance.

How do bulletin displays enhance students’ learning?

Bulletin Board Displays serves as a tangible link for the students to their lessons.
Somehow it enhances their appetite for learning specially when displays are made
artistic and appropriate enough to tickle the intellect of the students.

BULLETIN BOARD DISPLAYS

Target Competency
At the end of this activity, you are expected to design a bulletin board display.

Specific Tasks
Propose enhancements to make the display more effective.

Based on the lesson/them of the week, design a bulletin board display that is effective
on students learning.

TOPIC:

Reflection:

Board display was c covered by a glass, it was located near the entrance gate, it was
attractive and there were no misspelled words or even inconsistencies in grammar.

It can last for a longer time; it can easily attract the attention of the viewers because of
its location where many viewers can see it.
 The content was easy to understand because it was free from any grammar
errors.

The contents were relevant to the activities for that month.

It will be very effective if the viewers or students perform the task being posted.

1. Analysis
2. 1. Did the board display design reflect the likes or interest of its target
audience? Why? or Why not?
Definitely yes because of its style, selection of colors and materials, the title and the
theme seem to be a student made. Since it is made by certain students, so I can say
that everything being posted are being reflected on the likes or interest of its target
audience because the main target audience are also the students but it is not the totality
because every student has its own style. It simply means that one student is different
from another student in terms of their likes or interest.
1. 2. Was the language used clear and simple for the target audience to
understand? Why? Or Why not?
Yes, it was. The font and size of the words were formal enough to be read by the target
audience and the words were also bold enough to be clearly seen. The words used
were appropriate to the level of the students where in the students who will read it can
understand its thought.
1. 3. What do you think was the purpose of the board display? Was it
effective? Why? Or Why not?
In my own point of view, the purpose of the boards was to convey information to the
students such as information about the content of the subjects, proper hygiene, values
information and latest trends in the society. It also serves as motivation tool for the
students to do their best and as I look in it, it really works for it s purpose. By it designs it
holds attention, the contents were appropriate that provide learning information, and the
boards were not merely filled with written words but also pictures that facilitates easy
understanding.
1. 4. What suggestions can you make?
I suggest rearranging some of the words to convey much clear thought of the sentence.
The content must have something new that gives opportunity to the student to
participate or interact and it is important also to update the content. It would be also nice
to add more contents which will invite the participation of the students aside from
information that it conveys.

it is simple yet able to convey the topic it is purposely
made for. Aside from that, making such teaching
material is quite challenging. At first, anybody would
think that it is as easy as it looks. Just the same with
any materials used for teaching, one should carefully
plan and organize its contents in such manner easily
understood by the students.

1. Analysis
2. 1. What do you think prompted the teacher to choose the
materials/learning resources that she/ he used?
In my own understanding, the teacher wanted to let her students
to be attentive and participative in their lesson, and also let her
students utilize their analytical skills. The instructional materials
used were the perfect fit because the purpose was accomplished.
It really catches the attention of the students and it aids the
teacher’ intention. The instructional materials serves as a clear
representation that was capable of giving clear information,
through this, ht students were actively engaged in the discussion
and the teacher was trying to use her creativeness and
resourcefulness to facilitate the learning.

1. 2. What difficulties, if any, did the teacher experience? How

can this be managed?
As I closely observed, there was no difficulty that the teacher
experienced. The class was well managed and the teacher did
not find it hard to convince her students to participate in the
discussion and activity. There was an interaction between the
students and the teacher, and the teacher makes sure that her
students stay on task as observed.

1. 3. Over-all, were the learning resources/materials used

effectively? Why? Why not?
Yes, all students were actively engaged in the discussion by
answering the questions written in the visual aid and some of
them were able to answer what was asked. The teacher gives
appreciation to those students who answer the questions correctly
and to those who were not able to give their correct answer; the
teacher gives feedback to improve learning. Through the score of
students on their quiz that shows a positive result, I can conclude
that learning material was used effectively.

Reflection
 1. Put yourself in the place of the teacher. What would you do
similarly and what would you do differently if you will teach the
same lesson to the same group of students? Why?
If I will be the teacher of that class teaching with the same lesson,
I will also provide activities in order for students to have an
opportunity to practice and apply their learning after learning a
particular knowledge, skills and attitudes. I will also use the same
teaching approach which is the inquiry approach.

If it is possible, I will integrate the use of ICT tools because the

concept of computer literacy for students has been redefined
(creating web pages, digitizing multimedia and the use of social
networking sites) thus I have to be aware of this trends, as my
own teaching effectiveness will depend on my understanding of
these recent technological trends. With this reason, I will create a
game through the use of projector in a way that has relation to the
tropic. I will also present a power point presentation that contains
my topic for that day. Through this, the students will be attentive
and participative in the lesson and it brings convenience to my
part. If the resources are not available, I will use the chalkboard
and I will provide them an interactive activity by dividing them into
groups to be followed by a short discussion, this is to facilitate the
visual, auditory and bodily or kinesthetic learners. After I
implement the instruction, I will evaluate students by providing an
assessment method that is suited to the needs and interest of the
students in order for me to measure the retention of students if
they have achieved mastery, and to know if I’m going to proceed
or revise the instruction.

Date of Observation: August 16, 2012

School: Sagay National High School

Subject: English

Grade/Year Level: Third Year

As I observe the class, the topic was about idiomatic expression

using participle. Through the use of visual aids, the teacher
delivers her lesson effectively. The topics were written in a manila
paper and there was legibility in the content because it can be
quickly and clearly understood by students sitting at the back.
There was experiential learning that happens inside the
classroom and one of the reasons was that, students interact on
the learning materials that the teacher provides. The teacher let
her students read every detail in the visual aids, actually what was
written on the visual aid were questions for the students to be
answered.

Many of them were raising their hands to answer

questions and it simply indicates the student’s attentiveness,
eagerness and understanding. As I closely observed the student’s
simple gestures, it was inevitable for me to conclude that they
were interested on the lesson. The focus of their sight was merely
on the teacher and the learning resources, and some of them
were frowning maybe it’s because they were very doubtful or
dissented about the answer of their classmate. Those simple
gestures of students were the indication of attentiveness,
eagerness and understanding.

Over All Reflection

As a future teacher someday, I will always

bear in my mind that learners are rich in learning capabilities. The
process of learning are highly unique and individual, this means
that in a classroom there are individual differences that I must
consider. I need to assist my future students to define and to
make explicit to themselves the approaches they ordinarily use so
that they can become more effective in problem solving and
learning. I learned that one of the riches resources for learning is
the learners himself. Each learner has an accumulation of
experiences, ideas, feelings and attitude which comprise a rich
vein of material for problem solving and learning. I consider
learners as the richest resources for learning because they have
their own aptitude which are their innate talent or gift , interest
which express deep feelings for objects or actions and made their
stay pleasant and enjoyable, they also have their own ability
which pictates the prospect of success in any purposeful activity,
attitude which is the learners perspective and disposition and last
their family or cultural background which is their socio-economic
background.

I also learn that learning is the discovery of

personal meaning and relevance of ideas. As a future teacher, I
will only facilitate my learners and they are the one who will give
the meaning of a concept. Just like for example, my topic is all
about the leaf of a plant. I will let them have field trip outside the
classroom to observe the leaf of a plant. I will guide them and I
will demonstrate first and give some information about the leaf
and its parts after that, they will give their own meaning or
understanding about the leaf and its parts. Learning is gradual it’s
because it is by stages or levels so as a future teacher someday I
must extend my patience.

To be good teacher someday I must have passion to

both my work and to my students, I must have also humor in a
way that has connection to the topic, also values and attitude,
fairness, sincerity and honesty, and professionalism.
