Teachers develop instructional strategies to promote active learning and student engagement in the learning process. Researchers at the University of Cebu-Banilad conducted a study to determine the preferred teaching methods and strategies in an online modality of fourthyear BEEd students. Based on the findings of this study, they proposed a webinar workshop on creating a lesson plan utilizing appropriate teaching methods and strategies for primary school students. This research used a descriptive-correlational research design. Raw data were collected using a questionnaire developed by the researchers, which was analyzed using simple percentages, weighted mean, and chi-square independence tests. This instrument performs content verification and dry-run procedure to prove its efficiency and reliability. vii Forty (40) students under the fourth year of BEEd students from the University of CebuBanilad Campus were selected as respondents using a random sampling method. Based on the findings, most respondents were female under the ages of 21-22 years old. Twenty of them made detailed lesson plans, and most spent more than 2 hours developing a lesson plan. It also shows a significant correlation between the respondents’ profile and preferred teaching methods and strategies in an online modality. Therefore, respondents consistently preferred these.

A lesson plan is an activity that the teacher plans ahead of time that links the necessities of the curriculum and textbooks in presenting within the classroom (Li et al., 2009). A lesson plan, as defined by the Teaching Excellence in Adult Literacy [TEAL] Center (2010), is a tool that is a detailed description of how the instructor will convey the subject and where the contexts in which the learning objectives are can be achievable. It also covers explanations related to the lectures and the assessments, content, materials, time, teaching strategies, and classroom assistance strategies. Furthermore, the lesson plan provides teachers with guidance on what to teach and what to review. In education, especially in schools and universities, it is only correct to pay attention to teaching methods and the search for the best solution for the educational problem. One thing that can be useful in solving these problems is the search for teaching methods to develop and expand the learning scope of the learner (Lenman & Yonatan, 2012; Mahasneh, 2020). 2 Therefore, knowing the proper performance methods is preferable because teachers do not have time to experiment. Furthermore, students favor a teacher who empowers them to make their own decisions. Meanwhile, friendly students prefer a teacher who provides detailed answers to questions students and encourages positive classroom participation. It gives the impression that the student-friendly collaborator has adapted the guidelines and can supervise the completion of the tasks assigned to the students individually (Grasha, 2002; Kassaian & Ayatollahi, 2010; Rosario, 2004). Teaching methods are the principles, strategies, and behaviors teachers adapt to enable learning. From a different perspective, teaching styles reveal how educators present themselves to learners, transfer learning material, interact with students, manage learning tasks, guide work in progress, and engage students in their courses (Grasha, 2002). Teaching methods include curriculum understanding, student learning styles, academic performance, and professional knowledge. Based on a study by Koballa and Glynn (2007), students prefer more practical work, extended investigation, opportunities for discussion, and an emphasis on the applicability of a topic through experience based on the issue. It also shows that the most common methods include lectures, brainstorming, and problem-solving (Demirkan & Saracoglu, 2016; Kayabasi, 2012; 3 Karamustafaoglu & Kandaz, 2006; Marbach-Ad et al., 2001; Yesilyurt, 2013). Of course, all students are not the same; thus, it is crucial to discover groups of students who prefer particular teaching methods. In addition, it will be helpful to know more about students’ preferences for specific teaching methods and strategies for teacher training. On the other hand, cooperative learning, projects, and concept maps are among the less frequently used methods (Yesilyurt, 2013). These typically include a variety of traditional and non-traditional or emerging techniques such as conventional or interactive lectures, experiments, games, simulations, case studies, cooperative learning, and community-based learning (Faust & Paulson, 1998; Emerson & Taylor, 2007; Tanner, 2013). Previous studies (Durik & Harackiewicz, 2007; Reeve, 2002), teaching methods that allow teachers to be responsive (e.g., spending time listening), supportive (e.g., praising quality performance), and flexible (e.g., giving students time to work their way up) are best for the interests’ development. Thus selecting appropriate teaching methods makes it possible to arouse and develop students’ interests. Instructional strategies teach the methods and approaches that teachers follow to achieve primary instructional objectives. It is hard to say there is the existence of the concept of unity in strategies. 4 Marzano (2003) stated that instructional strategies influence student success and allow teachers to diversify instructional applications. Teaching strategies include activities that help create the classroom environment for good quality learning. These activities should take into account instructional objectives as well as curriculum content. Instructional strategies that teach the components which influence the target learning have a notable impact on the quality of knowledge, deciding which activities to start and what teaching methods and strategies to employ (Baker & Dwyer, 2005). John (2006) stated that educators’ responses were quite diverse when they began this process for themselves. For some teachers, these encounters have creative possibilities, while it is a brick wall of confusion and anxiety for others. Consequently, planning is one of the crucial skills teachers should acquire, but despite that, they still have difficulty organizing the lesson plan. Many skilled teachers face problems when they plan a lesson. Sometimes they meet difficulties in getting the students’ attention and sometimes misjudge the capabilities of their students (Postareff et al., 2007). After completing their Teacher Education, teachers report having trouble using theory to lesson planning, notably identifying appropriate learning strategies, learning activity phases, and achievement of competence and learning goals. 5 As a result, Sendurur (2018) posits that student-teachers tend to use teacher-centered learning. This fact is supported and reinforced by the research results of Taylan (2016), who found that prospective teachers did not include learning objectives or evaluates (Beyer & Davis, 2011) training difficulties in teaching. The alignment between learning objectives, learning activities, and assessment will determine student learning success (Chizhik & Chizhik, 2018). Thus, the ability to plan education units for undergraduate teachers to produce qualified teachers is a defined requirement for Education lecturers. A study conducted in the Philippines showed that lecture, question and answer method, project method, and demonstration style were ranked from highest to lowest as the dominant teaching style used by academics and technical instructors (Rizardo & Vyhmeister, 2010). In another study in the Philippines, teachers in the College of Education preferred to use the following strategies: panel discussion, lecture-demonstration, reporting, lecture, and teaching modules (Creer et al., 2008). Some of the areas of literature offered that have not yet been explored and studied include identifying student learning issues in the activities presented and providing a general summary of instructional objectives (Maher, 2008; Schuitema, 2008; Tashevska, 2008; Dunn et al., 2010). Another area of 6 literature that still needs to be studied is the learning and teaching objectives (Freiberg & Driscoll, 2000; Nunan, 2015; Bin-Hady & Abdulsafi, 2019) and ways to achieve them (Freiberg & Driscoll, 2000; Kagan & Tippins, 1992). As a result of the papers and publications discussed above, the researchers decided to undertake their research into the preferred teaching methods and strategies utilized in constructing lesson plans. The purpose was to determine what methods and strategies respondents employed in their online teaching. Furthermore, as a study tool, the researchers used a survey questionnaire. Through these questionnaires, they discovered the preferred methods and strategies utilized by fourth-year BEEd students in the online mode when developing lesson plans. The researchers proposed a webinar workshop on creating a lesson plan using appropriate teaching methods and strategies based on the results of this study. Theoretical Background This study anchored Constructivism Learning Theory by Jean Piaget, which describes a learning paradigm that claims that people actively construct their knowledge and experiences of learners to describe reality (Elliott, 2000). Constructivists believe in the personal production of student meaning via learning and impact the interaction of existing knowledge and new occurrences (Arends, 2014). Constructivist teaching will build a curriculum 7 depending on the level of interest and growth, which will guide them in their learning while also assessing it to establish future teaching points as they are encouraged to explore, explain, and research. This method shifted the focus of the learning environment from the teacher to the students. Concerns in instructional design within a framework of constructivism begin to be attached, allowing for the possibility of prior knowledge, understanding, and student interest. Boethel and Dimock (1999) stated that teachers should understand what students bring to the learning situation and start helping students develop new knowledge. The benefit of constructivist learning may be crucial wherein the instruction of complex skills such as problem-solving or critical thinking ability is concerned (Tam, 2000). Additionally, Paparozzi (1998) states that constructivism is student-centered, which involves problem-solving, and requires the student to interpret and explain. It recognizes the student’s prior knowledge, encourages social and environmental interaction, and looks at mistakes as learning opportunities. Felder and Silverman (1988) offered a parallel model of teaching style that categorizes instructional approaches based on how effectively they respond to the specified learning style components. As a result, he proposed four elements of teaching styles; content, presentation, student participation, and perspective. Content (concrete or abstract) focuses on the sort of 8 information delivered. Concrete information includes facts, data, and experiments, whereas principles, theories, and models are examples of abstract knowledge. The presentation (whether visual or verbal) emphasizes information. Visible models include pictures, diagrams, videos, and presentations, while lectures, readings, and conversations are part of the verbal model. Student participation (active/passive) focuses on how the student participates, while passive participation is where students only watch and listen. Finally, the perspective (sequential or global) focuses on the type of perspective provided on the information presented. The primary idea of constructivism is that human learning is intact, and students develop new knowledge based on prior knowledge. This prior knowledge will influence what new or modified knowledge an individual can derive from these new learning experiences (Phillips, 1995). The anchored theory was supported by Jean Piaget’s Cognitive Learning Approach, allowing educators to identify learning needs. Learners must reflect on their previous experiences to understand a new idea and then change their expectations to integrate new experiences. They form knowledge based on recently provided ideas, resulting in long-term changes. As a result, teachers must provide lessons for pupils to learn, depending on their learning levels and experiences (Kurt, 2020). 9 In selecting appropriate methods and techniques, teachers consider their personalities, the students, the subject content, time factors, and physical materials (Kucukahmet, 2017). Teachers also said the lecture was the most common method because their classrooms were over-crowded, and other styles and techniques were too time-consuming (Demirkan & Saracoglu, 2016). However, teachers should use strategies to highlight the cognitive abilities of students, such as critical thinking and problem-based learning, and lead students to be more reflective (Ishiyama et al., 1999). Teachers determine the format and content of their lessons, including how much to present, asking questions, how much information to cover in the allocated time, and the subjects’ complexity (Borich, 2017). In addition, the teacher organizes and structures instructional activities to stimulate the cognitive activation of students (Oser & Baeriswyl, 2001). Social Learning Theory developed by Albert Bandura also supported the anchored theory, known as the bridge between the behaviorist learning hypothesis and cognitive learning theories because it covers attention, memory, and motivation (Muro & Jeffrey, 2008). It allows educators to take this knowledge of students’ thought processes and apply it to the classroom that engages students. Moreover, it uses knowledge about their behavior to give teachers the tools to overcome their barriers in learning. He believes that 10 direct reinforcement could not account for all types of knowledge. For that reason, he added a social element, arguing that people can learn new information and behaviors by watching others. Teachers need to understand the process of individualized learning. In the learning process, individuals interact with the environment, i.e., unique information processing, and require a unique environment for learning. Addressing the challenge of facilitating learning conditions while organizing such interactions should be considered to help individuals optimize their learning (Singh, 2017). Thus, teachers should apply appropriate teaching strategies best suited to specific goals and abilities to ensure and facilitate the process of knowledge transmission (Tebabal & Kahssay, 2011). Whether students work in groups or alone, they learn to take responsibility for their learning (Rizardo & Vyhmeister, 2010). There are four elements in social learning theory, including attention, which states that students cannot learn if they are not focused on the task. However, if they see other students paying attention, they are more likely to pay attention. Teachers use reward and punishment systems to help students learn from the examples of others. Retention is where students learn by internalizing information. Students can remember information when they want to respond to a situation or a question. Reproduction is where students 11 bring their previously comprehended knowledge. Finally, motivation often comes from seeing others rewarded or punished for something (Western Governors University, 2020). Students who get positive reinforcement have more confidence in themselves and their abilities — this is unique in their minds. Therefore, they want to repeat this behavior. Furthermore, David Kolb’s Experiential Learning Theory also supported the anchored theory stating that learning entails the acquisition of abstract concepts that may be able to use flexibly in a range of contexts. This theory defines learning as a process by which knowledge construct through the change of experience (Kolb, 1984). Bonwell and Eison (1991) defined active learning as anything which concerns students doing things and thinking about things they do. Learning by doing involves actively participating in a planned event, evaluating and reflecting on the experience, and applying principles learned in school, work, and life situations. Among the typical planning of lesson pitfalls that novice teachers find burdensome to incorporate into their daily lesson plan are the demands of activities and commitment before service (Rodriguez & Abocejo, 2018). Boreham (1987) stated that the concept of experiential learning means learning through reflection on experience. Reflection is a crucial element in 12 learning. Without this, students are at risk of committing the same mistakes. Learning happens when a student shifts his thinking through reflection from learned experiences (Menaker et al., 2006). More importantly, experiential learning is related to empirical evidence and affects lesson planning ability (Miettinen, 2010). Experiential lessons allow students to experience the concepts themselves and, as a result, give students a richer, more meaningful understanding of course concepts and how they work in real life (Slavich & Zimbardo, 2012). Even if they all have the same traits and similar aims, teachers can employ strategies to boost student comprehension, motivation, and behavior. Because of the similarities between these concepts, the terms collaborative learning, problem-based learning, project-based learning, self-directed, and engaged learning are nearly interchangeable (Rizardo & Vyhmeister, 2010). With teacher coaching, scaffolding, and questioning, these activities help students develop the self-monitoring skills necessary to identify learning needs using their internal thought processes (reflection). Students select and become individually responsible for specific learning issues (autonomy, responsibility, and intentionality). The said theories, related literature, and studies have provided in-depth knowledge of the various teaching methods and strategies used to provide and 13 deliver proper lessons. Hence, they are highly relevant for teachers to develop better instructional plans and to the needs of students to learn effectively. THE PROBLEM Statement of the Problem This study determined the preferred teaching methods and strategies used by the fourth-year Bachelor of Elementary Education students in an online modality. The result of this study was used and served as the basis for proposing the webinar workshop on developing a lesson plan with appropriate 14 teaching methods and strategies. Specifically, the study sought to answer the following questions: 1. What is the profile of the respondents in terms of: 1.1. age; 1.2. gender; 1.3. types of lesson plans already made; and 1.4. amount of time spent working on the lesson plan? 2. What are the respondents’ preferred teaching methods and strategies in an online modality? 3. Is there a significant relationship between the profile of the respondents and the preferred teaching methods and strategies in an online modality? 4. What webinar workshop may be proposed based on the findings for creating a lesson plan utilizing appropriate teaching methods and strategies? Statement of Null Hypothesis The following null hypothesis tests at a 0.05 level of significance: Hø1: There is a significant relationship between the profile of the respondents and the preferred teaching methods and strategies in an online modality. 15 Significance of the Study The outcome of this study will be beneficial to the following: Bachelor of Elementary Education students. It will be useful for the BEEd students since they will be the ones to make the lesson plans that they will use in teaching the lessons. School Administrators. The school administrators will understand how to create a lesson plan and use teaching methods and strategies. Consequently, this research can be a guide. Teachers. Teachers can see where students struggle when employing suitable teaching methods and strategies when creating lesson plans. As a result, they will produce an example lesson plan incorporating appropriate teaching methods and techniques. Researchers. The accomplishment of this study will benefit the researchers as this will help them make appropriate lesson plans for future use. Future Researchers. The result of this study can help future researchers with their studies with related research topics like ours. 16 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY Research Design This study utilized the descriptive-correlational method to determine the preferred teaching methods and strategies used by the fourth-year Bachelor of Elementary Education students in the online modality of lesson plan-making using the researcher-made survey questionnaire. 17 INPUT Respondents’ Profile Lesson Plan Making Preferred Teaching Methods and Strategies PROCESS Descriptive Correlational Method Survey Questionnaire Data Gathering Data Processing Analysis and Interpretation of Data OUTPUT Webinar Workshop in Constructing a Lesson Plan Using Appropriate Teaching Methods and Strategies Figure 1 Research Flow The descriptive-correlational method represents the variables and relationships that naturally occur between them. The researchers applied correlation statistics to measure and describe the level of correlation between and among these variables (Creswell, 2015). Research Environment This study took place at the University of Cebu-Banilad Campus, located at Gov. M. Cuenco Avenue in Banilad, Cebu City, and specifically at the College of Teacher Education on the fourth floor (See Appendix E Location Map). The vision of the College of Teacher Education is to produce ethically guided and globally competitive teachers who will serve as leaders in their respective communities. They are committed to developing global and effective teachers who can teach in areas of primary education; instill 18 awareness in the appreciation and the ethics of the teaching profession; provide the leadership skills required in the practice of the teaching profession. Research Respondents This study focused on students in the fourth year of the Bachelor of Elementary Education at the University of Cebu-Banilad Campus. The said year level has a total population of 65 students. The researchers chose 60 percent of the 65 students, or equivalent to 40 students, using the random sampling method. It means the individuals of each demographic have an equal chance of being chosen to participate. Hence, every student from the said year level has an equal chance to be a respondent. Research Instrument Getting the necessary information, the researchers used a survey questionnaire. The questionnaire is a set of well-structured questions created by researchers to collect data and facts. It is divided into two components and serves as the primary data collection tool. The first part was profiling, which required respondents to fill out a form that contained their name (optional), age, gender, the types of lesson plans they had already created, and the number of hours they had spent doing so. The second part was split into two sub-parts to determine the preferred teaching methods and strategies used by fourthyear Bachelor of Elementary Education students in an online modality. The 19 researchers used this tool for data collection to determine the respondents’ preferred teaching methods and strategies in an online modality (See Appendix C - Research Instrument). Dry Run Procedure The researchers ran a dry run on fourth-year Bachelor of Secondary Education students from the University of Cebu-Banilad Campus, ensuring the instrument’s reliability. Forty (40) students were requested to answer and respond to the dry run procedure. The researchers chose the respondents who would answer. The informed consent form and the survey questionnaire were distributed to the identified dry run respondents using Google Form and Messenger App. The researchers asked respondents to put their e-signatures on the consent form if they accepted the invitation to be part of the study. Afterward, the researchers collected the data and tallied and tabulated the results. The researchers and their statistician use Cronbach’s Alpha to determine the reliability of the research instrument. The computed Cronbach’s Alpha value is 0.81, indicating that the results are consistent and reliable (See Appendix D - Reliability Test Results). Research Procedures 20 Gathering of Data. The researchers seek approval and permission from the University of Cebu-Banilad Campus Director, Dean Ofelia G. Maa (See Appendix A1 - Transmittal Letter). The researchers also secured approval from the Dean of the College of Teacher Education, Mrs. Debra Siacor AguantaLlagas (See Appendix A2 - Transmittal Letter). The researchers also gave participants a consent form explaining the purpose of their research and asked for their approval. Along with the document is a certificate of consent, on which they stamped their e-signatures as proof of participating in the said study voluntarily. After that, they sent the file again, and the researchers sent the Google Form for the survey questionnaire. Due to pandemic restrictions, the researchers distributed the survey questionnaires using various online platforms such as Google Forms and Messenger Apps. First, the respondents filled in their profile information and a questionnaire about their interest in the topic. After the survey, the researchers analyzed the answer. They kept and stored the information in a secure folder. They create duplicate backup files in case a problem occurs, and they will delete these files and information after six months. Meanwhile, the researchers’ statistician treated all the data gathered. Statistical Treatment 21 Participants answered the survey questionnaire. After administering the test, the results were analyzed using statistical tools and interpreted as the basis for conclusions and recommendations. The researchers used a Simple Percentage for computing the profile of the respondents, including their age, gender, types of lesson plans already made, and the amount of time spent creating the lesson plan. The researchers used Weighted Mean to determine the preferred teaching methods and strategies in an online modality. The researchers used a Chi-square Test of Independence to determine the significant relationship between respondents’ profiles and the preferred teaching methods and strategies in an online modality. Ethical Considerations Considered in this research are informed consent, voluntary participation, and confidentiality. Protecting the respondents’ rights is the primary obligation of the research team. Beneficence. This research may be helpful to the respondents, considering that they are the subject and center of establishing a webinar workshop that will help them address the needs of developing lesson plans using appropriate teaching methods and strategies. 22 Non-maleficence. The researchers asked the respondents to share some personal details about themselves and informed them not to give answers to questions asked if they were uncomfortable answering them. The researchers respected the respondents’ decision and did not ask for any reason. The researchers, their adviser, and the group’s statistician are the only ones who have access to the data collected in this study. Instead of using their names, the researchers indicate the respondents’ information as numbers. Only the researchers had access to their personal information, which they secured and placed in a separate folder. Justice. The researchers thoroughly explained to the respondents the purpose of conducting the study and the intended benefits to the respondents. Also, they comprehensively told them about the risks they might face when they accepted being a respondent in such a study and how the researchers would keep every detail hidden from other people, excluding the adviser and statistician of the researchers. Confidentiality. The researchers informed the respondents about the study; (i) the researcher sent the purpose and consent letter to the participants. (ii) the respondents’ participation in the study was entirely voluntary, and they had the right to withdraw. (iii) researchers retained participants’ personal information to protect their privacy and keep them safe. Furthermore, the 23 researchers conducted the study for academic purposes and prepared for the potential risks. Trustworthiness of the Research Credibility. The study consisted of six researchers and used a variety of sources of reliable facts and information. The researchers use an anchored theory such as Jean Piaget’s Constructivism Learning Theory and three supporting theories such as Jean Piaget’s Cognitive Learning Theory, Albert Bandura’s Social Learning Theory and David Kolb’s Experiential Learning Theory. The researchers used the primary data source as respondents’ responses. Along with the generated data, their adviser, statistician, and research instructor kept an eye on the data to ensure the findings were consistent. Therefore, the credibility of the study is certain. Transferability. The researchers described the context of their research thoroughly. They provided evidence that the findings were relevant and applicable to other situations, settings, populations, and even times. They also use up-to-date studies, theories, articles, journals, and books to support their claim. Reliability. Respondents were selected through random sampling to give an equal chance to every student from the fourth year to be part of the study. 24 Before being distributed to the respondents, the survey questionnaire was tested and analyzed by the group’s statistician to guarantee its reliability. Confirmability. The researchers meticulously reviewed and re-evaluated the acquired data and diagnosed and interpreted it with the help of their research adviser. The analyzed results and findings were based only on the responses. Therefore, the findings are accurate with no possibility of researcher bias. 25 DEFINITION OF TERMS This document introduces specialized terms to evade uncertainty before unfolding a more precise depiction.

Data analysis and interpretation have two parts. The profile of the respondents in terms of age, gender, types of lesson plans already made, and amount of time spent working on the lesson was based on the result of the first part. And the second part is divided into two sub-parts, with the results based on preferred online teaching methods and strategies in an online modality. For more detailed information, the following table reveals the analysis and interpretation of the profile of the respondents and the preferred teaching methods and strategies in an online modality based on the given survey questionnaire made by the researchers. The data collected were analyzed using statistical tools, namely, simple percentage, weighted mean, and chisquare test of independence, defined in the previous chapter. This study looks at the profiles of respondents in the fourth year of BEEd at the University of Cebu-Banilad, the type of lesson plans they prepare, and the amount of time they spend doing so. Respondents were exposed to different lesson plans, allowing them to assess which ones were most useful in the classroom. See Table 1 to explore more the types of lesson plans they already made and the time spent developing them. 28 Table 1 Profile of the Respondents (n = 40) Indicators Frequency (f) Percentage (%) 29-30 years old 27-28 years old 25-26 years old 23-24 years old 21-22 years old 1 0 1 8 30 2.5 0 2.5 20 75 Male Female Types of Lesson Plan Detailed Lesson Plan Semi-Detailed Lesson Plan 5E’s model Amount of Time Spent on Lesson Plan Over 2 hours 2 hours 1 hour Less than 1 hour 2 38 5 95 20 16 4 50 40 10 21 12 4 3 52.5 30 10 7.5 Age Gender Table 1 shows that most students who responded to the survey for preferred teaching methods and strategies in an online modality were between 21-22 years old, with a total percentage of 75%, while 2.5%, the lowest were aged 25-26 and 29-30. Moreover, most respondents were 38 females, with 95%, and two male respondents, with only 5%. The profile of the respondents also shows the types of lesson plans already made. It revealed that 20 respondents have already developed a detailed lesson plan with a percentage of 50%, followed by 16 respondents who have developed a semi-detailed lesson plan with 40%, and the remaining four have created a 5E model with 10%. It was supported by Richards and 29 Bohlke (2011), saying that planning a lesson before teaching is necessary to stay on their feet and teach more effectively because it allows students to learn adequately in classroom instruction, so they acquire specific classroom teaching skills. Moreover, the profile of the respondents also shows the amount of time they spent making lesson plans. It revealed that 21 respondents spent over 2 hours making the lesson plan, with 52.5%. Meanwhile, only 3 out of 40 respondents spent less than an hour developing a lesson plan, the lowest percentage of 7.5%. Wang et al. (1997) agreed with this result, saying that the more time spent on instruction, the better the student’s achievements. It shows the preferences of the respondents for teaching methods. The respondents always praised their students’ works or activities to motivate them. Based on the data gathered, respondents know what teaching method to use and listen to their students’ concerns and opinions (see Table 2.1 below). Often, sociocultural learning techniques focus only on student interaction, although the instructor plays a crucial role in cultivating students in long-term mental science (Scott, 1998). 30 Table 2.1 Preferred Teaching Methods in an Online Modality (n = 40) Indicators 1. I use a lecture-based teaching style such as PowerPoint presentations or slideshows in conveying information. 2. I use open-ended questions that are connected to the learning outcomes of the students. 3. I use direct instruction when teaching. 4. I let my students relate to our topic by using real situations or real-life experiences for a better understanding of the lesson. 5. I give activities to encourage my students to work independently. 6. I let my students work in groups. 7. I let my students reflect on what we discussed and did after each session. 8. I use appropriate learning materials to reach my students’ learning needs. 9. I listened to what my students have to say. 10. I praise my students’ works/activities to make them feel proud. Factor Mean Legend: 3.26 - 4.00 Always; 2.51 - 3.25 Oftentimes; Weighted Mean 3.65 Interpretation Always 3.58 Always 3.50 3.62 Always Always 3.70 Always 3.48 3.75 Always Always 3.76 Always 3.80 3.81 Always Always 3.67 1.76 - 2.50 Sometimes; Always 1.00 - 1.75 Never Table 2.1 shows the respondents’ preferred teaching methods in an online modality. As presented in the table above, the overall mean is 3.67, which means they always use these teaching methods. The results revealed that respondents always praised their students’ work/activity to make them feel proud, with the majority having a weighted mean of 3.81. With a 3.80 weighted mean, they constantly listen to what their pupils have to say. Then, with a weighted mean of 3.76, they always use appropriate learning materials to match the learning needs of the students and always let them reflect on what was discussed and developed after each session, with a weighted mean of 3.75. Also, they always provide activities to 31 encourage their students to work independently, with a total mean weight of 3.70, followed by a 3.65 weighted mean, always using a lecture-based teaching style such as a PowerPoint presentation or slideshow to convey information. With a weighted mean of 3.62, they always allow their students to relate to the material using real-life circumstances or experiences. Meanwhile, continuously using open-ended questions connected to their learning outcomes, always using direct instruction when teaching, and always allowing them to work in groups obtained a weighted mean of 3.58, 3.50, and 3.48. Because the primary task of instructors is to help students immerse themselves in learning activities that will lead to the desired learning outcomes (Shuell, 1986), the learning styles of these students are formed by their previous experiences (Anicas, 2015). And because students have different learning styles, online educators must design activities that include multiple learning styles and teaching models must also adapt to the new learning environment. The questionnaire encouraged the respondents to select one of the various techniques, ranging from Never to Always. For example, one respondent answered “Always” in letting the students share their ideas with the class to help them develop self-confidence, communication, and critical 32 thinking skills. Additionally, the statistics presented are descriptive to show how respondents interpret their preferred teaching methods and strategies (see Table 2.2). The results revealed they always employ these when giving the lesson, ensuring that their students’ learning is their top priority. Table 2.2 Preferred Teaching Strategies in an Online Modality (n = 40) Indicators 1. I use visual and practical learning experiences such as photos, audio, or videos to help my students understand the lesson more. 2. I use discussion forums to encourage my students in participating during our asynchronous sessions, and use web-conferencing such as Zoom and, or Google meet for our live discussion. 3. I place lecture notes with links or resources for my students to review. 4. I let my students share their ideas in the class to help them develop their self-confidence, their communication skills and critical thinking skills. 5. I encourage my students to ask questions and improve their problem-solving skills to gain deeper understanding of academic concepts. 6. I allocate tasks based on my student’s abilities and learning needs. 7. I give rewards to my students the time they participate in my class. 8. I let my students learn from themselves in our asynchronous sessions. 9. I let my students do the task/activity and guide them. 10. I let my students recreate a situation relating to real-world problems. 11. I let my students prepare for the class by telling them to study in advance. Factor Mean Legend: 3.26 - 4.00 Always; 2.51 - 3.25 Oftentimes; Weighted Mean Interpretation 3.80 Always 3.53 Always 3.43 Always 3.83 Always 3.82 Always 3.68 Always 3.72 Always 3.68 Always 3.75 Always 3.67 Always 3.71 Always 3.69 1.76 - 2.50 Sometimes; Always 1.00 - 1.75 Never Table 2.2 shows that the three with the highest weighted mean of the respondents’ preferred teaching strategies by constantly allowing their 33 students to share their ideas in class to help them build their self-confidence, skills in communication, and critical thinking, with a weighted mean of 3.83. With a 3.82 weighted mean, they always encourage their pupils to ask questions and enhance their problem-solving skills to increase their understanding of academic concepts. And they always use visual and practical experiences to learn, such as photos, audio, or videos, to help them understand the lesson further, with 3.80. Meanwhile, the lowest weighted mean was as follows: always letting their students recreate a situation related to real-world problems, with a 3.67 weighted mean, always using a discussion forum to encourage them to participate in asynchronous sessions, and always using web-conferencing such as Zoom and Google meet for live discussion, with a 3.53 weighted mean, and posting lecture notes with links or resources to be reviewed by students, with a lowest weighted mean of 3.43. Anicas (2015) revealed that the results showed a homogeneous type of students despite the differences in the institutes to which they belong. Since the students’ learning is the most important thing here, teachers should use an egalitarian teaching style with chances for debate and self-direction in activities that can boost their self-confidence and self-esteem (Schuitema, 2008). Thus, the results obtained an overall mean of 3.69, which means the respondents always use these teaching strategies in online modalities. 34 The survey was collected using a questionnaire for students in the fourth year of BEEd at the University of Cebu-Banilad Campus. Further, the findings in Table 3.1 show a strong significant relationship between the profile of the respondents and their preferred teaching strategies in an online modality, with an average factor of 15.520 in 5%. Studies have documented that younger students prefer interactive learning, such as; live chats and group projects (Simonds & Brock, 2014; Koh & Lim, 2012).

As estimated, Chi-square values are better than critical values, and P-values are less than the significance level of 0.05. The factor average also showed that the computed Chi-square value of 15.520 was more outstanding than the critical value of 14.588. Thus, it rejected the null hypothesis. It means that 35 there is a strong correlation between the profile of the respondents and the preferred teaching strategies in an online modality at 5%. Lastly, using Chi-square values, Table 3.2 shows a significant correlation between respondents’ profile and their preferred teaching methods in an online modality, with a total calculation of 16.145 and 5%. Closed educational institutions during the lockdown period forced policymakers to adopt an alternative education system. Scholars referred to it as an online Emergency Remote Education [ERE] System adopted by most educational institutions worldwide during the COVID-19 crisis. They differentiate between ERE and distance education (Bozkurt & Sharma, 2020a; and Bozkurt & Sharma., 2020b).

The factor average also revealed that the totaled Chi-square value of 16.145 is greater than the critical value of 14.588, which leads to the rejection of the null hypothesis. It means that the profile of the respondents has a significant relationship to the preferred teaching methods in an online modality at 5%. 37 CHAPTER 3 SUMMARY, FINDINGS, CONCLUSION, AND RECOMMENDATIONS Summary The central objective of this study was to determine which teaching methods and strategies students in the fourth year of Bachelor of Elementary Education in an online modality preferred. It explores the demographic profile of the respondents, including their age, gender, types of lesson plans developed, and the time spent working on the lesson plan. Moreover, the researchers performed this study to determine the significant relationship between the profile of the respondents and their preferred teaching methods and strategies in the online modality. They used these findings in proposing a webinar workshop for the said year level. This study utilized a descriptive-correlational design to determine the preferred teaching methods and strategies used by fourth-year Bachelor of Elementary Education students in an online modality in lesson planning conducted at the University of Cebu-Banilad. Forty (40) fourth-year BEEd students were selected using random sampling. The researchers used a survey questionnaire created by them to gather data. 38 Findings The following were the findings of this study. 1. Most respondents were under 21-22 years old, female, and spent more than 2 hours preparing the lesson plan. Twenty respondents developed detailed lesson plans, with a majority of 50%. 2. Respondents always use different teaching methods and strategies. 3. There was a 5% level of significant correlation between the profile of the respondents and the preferred teaching methods and strategies in an online modality. Thus, it rejected the null hypothesis. 4. The researchers proposed a webinar workshop for constructing a lesson plan using the appropriate teaching methods and strategies. Conclusions The findings showed that respondents constantly prefer different teaching methods and techniques in their online teaching methods. It also revealed that their profile and preferred teaching methods and strategies in an online modality are significantly correlated. As a result, the findings are consistent with Constructivism Learning Theory, which suggests that educators should focus on students’ learning using various methods and strategies (Hein, 1991). And that constructivist teaching will guide their learning, assessing it as a way to identify future 39 teaching points while encouraging the students to think, explain, and investigate (Arends, 2014). Recommendations The following are the researchers’ recommendations based on the findings. 1. Teachers should consider the ages of their students in making lesson plans and identify the factors that affect the making of lesson plans. They should allow their students to explore different lesson plans that include multiple learning styles. Also, they should spend more time creating a lesson plan to ensure the students’ learning. 2. Teachers should use a mixture of teaching methods and strategies that give opportunities for their students to learn well and immerse themselves in the activities provided. 3. The researchers recommended a webinar workshop entitled “Writing an Effective Lesson Plan Using Appropriate Teaching Methods and Strategies” to help develop a better instructional plan. 40 PROPOSED OUTPUT Title of Webinar: Writing an Effective Lesson Plan Using Appropriate Teaching Methods and Strategies Introduction The third-year BEEd student researchers proposed this Online Webinar for the fourth-year BEEd students from the University of Cebu-Banilad. The content of this webinar will discuss how to write a lesson plan effectively using appropriate teaching methods and strategies. Given the current situation, researchers will implement this webinar via Google Meet or Zoom. The said webinar will only run for half a day, which will take place in the morning. Researchers will invite students from the fourth year of BEEd, although this is only voluntary.

Bontilao Name of Organization: University of Cebu-Banilad Name of Proposal: Lesson Plan Making: Preferred Teaching Methods and Strategies in an Online Modality This Informed Consent has two parts: Information Sheet (to share information about the research with you) Certificate of Consent (for signatures if you agree to take part) (Kini nga Kasayurang Pag-uyon kay adunay duha ka bahin: Impormasyon Papel (aron ipaambit kanimo ang kasayuran bahin sa panukiduki) Sertipiko sa Pag-uyon (alang sa mga pirma kung mouyon ka nga moapil)) You will be given a copy of the full Informed Consent Form (Hatagan ka ug kopya sa kompleto nga porma sa Kasayurang Pag-uyon) PART I: Information Sheet Introduction We, the third year BEEd students from University of Cebu-Banilad Campus are currently conducting a research entitled “Lesson Plan Making: Preferred Teaching Methods and Strategies in an Online Modality”. In line with this, we are inviting you to be 54 a respondent of this study and request you to spare a few minutes of your time to answer the questionnaire presented by the researchers. However, you do not have to decide today whether or not you will participate in this analysis. Before you decide, you can talk to anyone you feel comfortable with about the research. If there are contents in the questionnaire that you do not understand and find ambiguous please feel free to contact the researchers. Rest assured that all the answers will be treated with utmost confidentiality. (Bahin I: Impormasyong Papel Pasiuna Kami nga mga estudyante sa ikatulong tuig nga BEEd sa University of CebuBanilad Campus nagpahigayon karon og panukiduki nga nag-ulohan og “Lesson Plan Making: Difficulties Experienced by Fourth Year BEEd Students from University of CebuBanilad”. Subay niini, kami nag-imbitar kanimo nga mahimong respondent niini nga imbestigasyon ug mohangyo kanimo sa paggahin ug pipila ka minuto sa imong oras sa pagtubag sa mga pangutana nga gipresentar sa mga tigdukiduki. Bisan pa, dili nimo kinahanglan nga magdesisyon karon kung moapil ka ba o dili sa kini nga pagtuki. Sa dili ka pa modesisyon, mahimo kang makigsulti sa bisan kinsa nga imong gibati nga komportable bahin sa panukiduki. Kung adunay mga sulod sa pangutana nga wala nimo masabti ug nakit-an nga dili klaro unya ayaw pagduhaduha sa pagkontak sa mga tigdukiduki. Makasalig ka nga ang tanan nga mga tubag pagatagdon uban ang labing kaayo nga kompidensyal.) Purpose of the Research The primary purpose of this study is to determine the preferred teaching methods and strategies used by the fourth year BEEd students in making their lesson plans. (Katuyoan sa Panukiduki Ang nag-unang tumong niini nga pagtuon mao ang pag-ila sa gusto nga mga pamaagi sa pagtudlo ug mga estratehiya nga gigamit sa mga estudyante sa ikaupat nga tuig sa BEEd sa paghimo sa ilang mga plano sa leksyon.) Type of Research Intervention 55 This study will involve a survey questionnaire. (Matang sa Interbensyon sa Panukiduki Kini nga pagtuon maglakip sa usa ka survey questionnaire.) Participant Selection We are inviting the fourth year BEEd students from the University of Cebu-Banilad Campus as they are the target participants and the beneficiaries of the program that we plan to design after this study. (Pagpili sa Partisipante Among giimbitar ang fourth year BEEd students gikan sa University of CebuBanilad Campus kay sila ang target nga partisipante ug benepisyaryo sa programa nga among planong i-desinyo human ning maong pagtuon.) Voluntary Participation Your participation in this research is entirely voluntary. It is your choice whether to participate or not. Should you choose not to continue in the survey, your refusal will not be taken against your person. (Boluntaryong Pag-apil Ang imong pag-apil niini nga panukiduki kay boluntaryo. Anaa kanimo ang pagpili kung moapil ba o dili. Kung gusto nimo nga dili magpadayon sa survey, ang imong pagdumili dili makaapekto sa imong pagkatawong- dungog.) Procedures and Protocol In this investigation, you will be asked to answer a survey questionnaire through an online google form link distributed by the researchers themselves and field investigators during your free and convenient time. It will be collected outright or after seven days. The information recorded is confidential, and no one else except the researchers, content expert, and the adviser, will have access to the accomplished copies of the questionnaire. The said copies of the questionnaire will be destroyed after six months. 56 To ensure that you will have a complete understanding of the purpose of the study, the proponent will first explain the study’s objectives and the intended benefits of the participants themselves. (Mga Pamaagi ug Protokol Sa kini nga imbestigasyon, hangyoon ka sa pagtubag sa usa ka survey questionnaire pinaagi sa usa ka online google form link nga gipang-apod-apod sa mga tigdukiduki mismo ug mga field investigator sa panahon sa imong libre ug sayon nga panahon. Kini kolektahon dayon o pagkahuman sa pito ka adlaw. Ang impormasyon nga narekord kay kompidensyal, ug walay lain gawas sa mga tigdukiduki, eksperto sa sulod, ug magtatambag, ang adunay access sa nahuman nga mga kopya sa pangutana. Ang maong mga kopya sa questionnaire mawagtang human sa unom ka bulan. Aron masiguro nga makabaton ka ug kompleto nga pagsabot sa katuyoan sa pagtuon, ang tigpasiugda mopatin-aw una sa mga tumong sa pagtuon ug ang gituyo nga mga benepisyo sa mga partisipante mismo.) Duration The research will take place in six months. During that time, you will be asked by the researchers to answer the survey questionnaire during your vacant time or any of your convenient time and may submit it within seven (7) days. If you were intended to answer the questionnaire immediately, then it will take 15-20 minutes. Your engagement as a respondent will only take once. (Gidugayon Ang panukiduki mahitabo sa unom ka bulan. Nianang panahona, hangyoon ka sa mga tigdukiduki nga tubagon ang survey questionnaire sa imong bakante nga oras o bisan unsa sa imong kombenyente nga oras ug mahimong isumite kini sulod sa pito (7) ka adlaw. Kung gituyo nimo nga tubagon dayon ang pangutana, molungtad kini og 15-20 minuto. Ang imong pakigduyog isip usa ka respondent usa ra ka higayon.) Risks We are asking you to share some personal details about yourself. You should know that you do not have to provide answers to all the questions presented if you are not 57 comfortable answering some of the questions. You do not have to give reasons for not responding to any questions, or for refusing to take part in the said survey. We will not be sharing with you either the responses given by you. (Mga Risgo Gihangyo ka namon nga ipaambit ang pipila ka mga personal nga detalye bahin sa imong kaugalingon. Kinahanglan nimong masayran nga dili nimo kinahanglan nga maghatag ug mga tubag sa tanan nga mga pangutana nga gipresentar kung dili ka komportable sa pagtubag sa pipila nga mga pangutana. Dili kinahanglan nga mohatag ka ug rason sa dili pagtubag sa bisan unsang pangutana, o sa pagdumili sa pag-apil sa maong survey. Dili namo ipaambit kanimo ang mga tubag nga imong gihatag.) Benefits This research can be beneficial to the respondents considering that they are the subject and the center in establishing a proposed webinar workshop that will help them deal with the demands of making lesson plans in terms of the teaching methods and strategies used. (Mga Kaayohan Kini nga panukiduki mahimong mapuslanon sa mga respondents tungod kay sila ang hilisgutan ug sentro sa pag-establisar sa usa ka gisugyot nga webinar workshop nga makatabang kanila sa pagsagubang ug pag-atubang sa mga gipangayo sa online nga pagkat-on.) Reimbursement You will not be provided with any payment to take part in the research. (Reimbursement Dili ka hatagan sa bisan unsang porma sa pagbayad kung ikaw mohukom nga moapil sa survey.) Confidentiality Because something out of the ordinary is being done through research on the school campus, it might draw attention. If you participate, other people in your institution, 58 community, and society, in general, may ask you some questions. We will not be sharing information about you. The information that we collect from this research project will be kept confidential. Information about you and your perception that will be collected from this research will be put away, and only the researchers have access to it. Any information about you will be denoted by a number rather than your name. Only the researchers will have access to your phone number/contact information, which we will secure with a lock and key. It will be kept confidential and will not be shared or given to anyone except our content expert and adviser. (Pagkakompidensyal Tungod kay adunay usa ka butang nga dili ordinaryo nga gihimo pinaagi sa panukiduki sa kampus sa eskuylahan, mahimo’g makuha ang atensyon. Kung moapil ka, ang ubang mga tawo sa imong institusyon, komunidad, ug katilingban, sa kinatibuk-an, mahimong mangutana kanimo og pipila ka mga pangutana. Dili kami magpaambit sa impormasyon bahin kanimo. Ang impormasyon nga among makolekta gikan niini nga proyekto sa panukiduki pagatipigan nga kompidensyal. Ang impormasyon mahitungod kanimo ug sa imong panglantaw nga makolekta gikan niini nga panukiduki itago, ug ang mga tigdukiduki lamang ang adunay access niini. Ang bisan unsang impormasyon bahin kanimo ipaila sa usa ka numero kaysa imong ngalan. Ang mga tigdukiduki ra ang adunay access sa imong numero sa telepono / impormasyon sa pagkontak, nga among i-secure gamit ang kandado ug yawe. Kini huptan nga kompidensyal ug dili ipaambit o ihatag kang bisan kinsa gawas sa among eksperto sa sulod ug tigtambag.) Sharing the Results At the end of the study, we will share what we have learned from the respondents and the community. We will do this by meeting first with the participants and then with the larger community. Nothing that you answered in the questionnaire will be shared with anybody outside the research. A written report will also be given to the participants, which they can share with their families. We will also publish the results in order that other interested people may learn from this research. Where applicable, your strategy for sharing information with participants should be included. Include details if you have a plan and a timeline for sharing information. 59 Additionally, you should inform the participant that the research findings will be disseminated widely, such as through publications and conferences. (Pagpaambit sa mga Resulta Sa pagtapos sa pagtuon, among ipaambit ang among nakat-onan gikan sa mga respondents ug sa komunidad. Buhaton namo kini pinaagi sa pagpakigkita una sa mga partisipante ug dayon sa mas dako nga komunidad. Walay bisan unsa nga imong gitubag sa pangutana nga ipaambit sa bisan kinsa gawas sa panukiduki. Ihatag usab ang usa ka sinulat nga taho sa mga partisipante, nga mahimo nilang ipaambit sa ilang mga pamilya. Imantala usab namo ang mga resulta aron ang ubang interesadong mga tawo makakat-on gikan niini nga panukiduki. Kung mahimo, ang imong estratehiya sa pagpaambit sa impormasyon sa mga partisipante kinahanglang iapil. Ilakip ang mga detalye kon duna kay plano ug timeline sa pagpaambit sa impormasyon. Dugang pa, kinahanglan nimong ipahibalo sa partisipante nga ang mga nahibal-an sa panukiduki ipakaylap sa kadaghanan, sama sa pinaagi sa mga publikasyon ug mga komperensya.) Right to Refuse or Withdraw You may choose not to participate in this study and do not have to participate in this research if you do not wish to. Choosing to participate or not will not affect your grades or academic performance in school. You may stop participating in the survey at any time you wish without losing your rights here. (Katungod sa Pagdumili o Pag-atras Mahimo nimong pilion nga dili moapil niini nga pagtuon ug dili kinahanglan nga moapil niini nga panukiduki kung dili nimo gusto. Ang pagpili sa pag-apil o dili kay dili makaapekto sa imong mga grado o akademikong pasundayag sa eskwelahan. Mahimo nimong hunongon ang pag-apil sa survey sa bisan unsang oras nga gusto nimo nga dili mawala ang imong mga katungod dinhi.)
