Peralta Course: Master in Education Major: Educational Leadership Student No: 19-6254-789 Professor: Dr. Rhea B. Madamba Second Sem, SY 2020 - 2021 MED 11 TEACHING, LEARNING TOOLS AND TECHNOLOGY ACTIVITY 1 The Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) is a study of 15-yearold students’ performance in reading, mathematics, and science conducted every 3 years. In PISA 2018, Filipino learners ranked last in reading and second to last in math and science. Discuss how you can help in increasing the performance of the learners in Reading, Math and Science through the following: a. Teaching-learning process is a ccombined processes where an educator assesses learning needs, establishes specific learning objectives, develops teaching and learning strategies, implements plan of work and evaluates the outcomes of the instruction (What is teaching-learning process, n.d.). Assessment of those elements in teaching-learning process can help a learner in encouraging good study habits, in increasing motivation and in developing abilities and skills, in knowing the results of progress and in getting appropriate feedback (Ramna & Akhilesh, 2018). It can able to determine any shortcomings and what areas needs improvement, innovations and interventions. In that way, the Department of Education (DepEd) can able to make a reform program that would aid in increasing the performance of learners. b. Instructional materials are any collection of materials including animate and inanimate objects and human and non-human resources that a teacher may use in teaching and learning situations to help achieve desired learning objectives. Instructional materials may aid a student in concretizing a learning experience so as to make learning more exciting, interesting and interactive. They are tools used in instructional activities, which include active learning and assessment. The term encompasses all the materials and physical means an instructor might use to implement instruction and facilitate students’ achievement of instructional objectives (Instructional materials, n.d.). To improve the quality of lesson a teacher had to consider the diversity of learners in choosing the appropriate instructional materials to be used because learners have unique ways of learning. Any resource a teacher uses to teach learners is considered as instructional materials. It is important because it can increase student achievement by supporting learners learning. This process aids in the learning process by allowing the learners to explore the knowledge they learn independently (Hizon, 2018) into the manner on how they understand it. c. Teaching strategies refer to methods used to help students learn the desired course contents and be able to develop achievable goals in the future. Teaching strategies identify the different available learning methods to enable them to develop the right strategy to deal with the target group identified. Assessment of the learning capabilities of students provides a key pillar in development of a successful teaching strategy (Armstrong, 2020). As a teacher, you are responsible in choosing which teaching strategies will best works for your diverse learners. Whether you’re a beginning or master teacher, it’s difficult to find the right strategy to cater the needs of your learners. Teaching strategies vary from one age group to another. None of the method is the best. It depends on the learning style of learners. Learners in the primary level take more interest in the activities performed in the class. In-class exercises work the best for this age group. Visual and auditory aids improve learning and performance. Whereas, for secondary and tertiary levels, lectures, projects, field work, group exercises and peer teaching are the most suitable strategies to help them. Howard Gardner’s multiple intelligences are also being considered and integrated in the lesson plans for improved learning of each and every student (Laraib, 2014). Teaching strategies plays a vital role in order to increase the performance of learners. That’s why; teachers have to consider their differences in abilities, skills, intelligences and the way they learn things in selecting the strategy to implement. Get to know their strengths and weaknesses, as well. d. Capacity building programs helps to solve problems and implement change by assisting individual or group to gain insights, knowledge and experiences. Capacity building is a term widely use in education jargon, it refers to any effort being made to improve abilities, skills and expertise of educators (Capacity, 2013). Improving the performance of teachers for specific, restructuring how work is organized or how services are delivered will help learners meet more challenging standards (Building Capacity for Education Reform, 1995) and will able to reach their full potential. Teacher capacity or the teachers and school heads’ up skilling and reskilling through a transformed professional development program (San Juan, 2019) is one of the areas that the Department of Education (DepEd) is eyeing to reform due to the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) result. e. 21st Century Skills comprise skills, abilities, and learning dispositions that have been identified as being required for success in 21st century society and workplaces by educators, business leaders, academics, and governmental agencies. This is part of a growing international movement focusing on the skills required for students to master in preparation for success in a rapidly changing, digital society. Many of these skills are also associated with deeper learning, which is based on mastering skills such as analytic reasoning, complex problem solving, and teamwork. These skills differ from traditional academic skills in that they are not primarily content knowledge-based (21st century skills, n.d.). If we want to prepare all learners for success, opportunities to learn 21st century skills are necessary. They not only provide a framework for successful learning in the classroom, but ensure students can thrive in a world where change is constant and learning never stops (Ross, 2017) given the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) result, wherein the Philippines did not perform well. The Department sees this as part of the Quality Basic Education reform plan and a step towards globalizing the quality of Philippine basic education (DepEd, 2019). Furthermore, they should emphasize skills and attitudes over curriculum and rote memorization. The curriculum should aid in fostering skills like digital literacy, problem-solving, reasoning, collaboration, creativity, interpretation, and analysis to help the learner in all the situations he or she encounters. Implementing 21st Century skills in a class means teachers should provide learners, through carefully planned lessons and assignments, with opportunities to cultivate 21st-century skills within Reading, Math and Science subjects. Schools should be committed to doing their best to make sure their learners are ready to impact the world, no matter what that future holds (Neal, 2017).
