My Analysis
Where the learning resources/ materials arranged properly according to their functions and
characteristics?
Yes, learning resources/materials are arranged properly according to their functions and
characteristics. Books are arranged depending to its subject contents and other materials are arranged
properly.

Do the guidelines and procedures facilitate easy access to the materials by the teachers? Why? Why not?
- Since there was no guidelines and procedures, but still pupils can use materials easily. They will
just ask permission from the teacher when they want to borrow or use. The materials are accessible for the
teacher because all are organized.

What are the strengths of this Learning Resource Center? - The strengths of the learning resource center are:
1. All are arranged and classified according to its uses and functions.
2. Accessible for everybody to use.
3. Pupils have no difficulty in getting the materials because it is within their reach.
4. It is free from dust and moisture.
What are its weaknesses?
The library needs better lighting especially during cloudy days and better ventilation
on warm and humid days.

The numbers of computer is not enough to accommodate all the students in one
section. The ratio sometimes was one is to two.

What suggestions can you make?


When finances can suffice, it would be better to add more lighting fixtures and
ventilation measures to the library. It is also good if the institution add their units of computers and
high tech learning gadgets someday.

My Reflections
1. Which of the materials in the Learning Resource Center caught your interest the most? Why?

Among the materials in the learning resources at NNHS, the books really caught my
interest because ever since I was a kid I really love reading books, despite some
difficulty in relating to some topics.

The learning resources/materials are arranged properly according to their functions


and characteristics. The books, magazines, article news are properly arranged by each
place. The guidelines and procedures facilitate easy access to the materials by the
teachers because the books are free from dust moisture, arranged by each type and
easy to get by the learners. Library serves as permanent sources of information. The
books present accurate facts and details. They are reusable. Students can control their
own pace of learning by using books at a convenient time. The material that I already
confident to use are the books because it widen my knowledge and the one that I need
to learn more is using of the new computerized library system.

3. Which gadgets/materials are you already confident to use/operate?

Among the gadgets that I am confident to use are the computer and the overhead
projector. I just felt comfortable operating it, it also makes me easy to use because it is
not new in my part as a former Computer programmer student. We also experienced
using it in our reports and presentations.

4. Which ones do you feel you need to learn more about?

All the materials present in the learning resource center are easy to use. Therefore, I can say that I dont
need to learn more about those materials. However, although I am confident that I can use the
computer as an instructional tool, I definitely would like to learnmore about the Web
2.0 tools like blogging and social bookmarking as well as the issues that may be
encountered in using them for distance learning.

Mapping Web 2.0 Benefits to Known Best Practices in Distance Education

Introduction

The last several years have been filled with enthusiastic discussion regarding Web 2.0 technologies and their
positive, dynamic enhancements to a users experience on the Internet. This same wave has somewhat belatedly
crashed over the realm of online education, and it has been a much-mulled subject ever since. The reason is for this
is simple: The potential positive impact of Web 2.0 tools on the online learning experience is believed to be myriad
and vast.

Recent research has confirmed and identified benefits to the use of Web 2.0 technologies within the online
classroom. Such benefits can be mapped to known best practices from the distance education literature to help
enhance and optimize their potential positive effects within the online classroom. This article outlines the suspected
and documented benefits of Web 2.0 technologies and links them to known best best practices in distance education.

Potential Benefits of Web 2.0 Technologies

The benefits of using Web 2.0 tools and technologies in the online classroom reaches far and wide. This section
looks at both documented and undocumented advantages.

Undocumented/Presumed Potential Benefits

Since their inception, Web 2.0 tools have widely been believed to produce several positive impacts:

They provide a constructivist-friendly toolkit. Constructivist theory is generally acknowledged and utilized in
online education as an effective roadmap towards successful, deep learning outcomes for students. The requirements
of a successful constructivist approach include encouraging the student's own role in the continuing process of
constructing knowledge and deep learning. Prior to Web 2.0, one of the key assumptions was that online classrooms
would serve well as platforms for creating constructivist learning environments, but they actually often proved to
simply act as transmission models of education (Allen & Long, 2009) usually due to the high expertise levels
required of earlier technologies. More recently, the surge in user-friendly Web 2.0 tools such as wikis, blogs, video
sharing services, social networks, and other collaborative tools have lent support to a key component of
constructivist practice: the promotion of collaborative learning, capable of helping to create "an entire constructivist
learning environment" (Seitzinger, 2006, p.13) within an online class.

They create a connection to today's students' (and our own) "real world." Web 2.0 has also already proven
valuable in various corporate, government, and institutional settings, and its adoption has been quite rapid compared
to other IT technologies (Bughin, 2008). As such, implementing thse tools in the educational arena can help prepare
students to use them in real-world venues.
They allow for authentic assessment. The effects of Web 2.0 simply cannot be ignored today. It is now a nearly
unavoidable aspect within the daily lives of most students and even some instructors these days. Some have argued
that it must now be accounted for in creating an authentic assessment of learning objectives, and of the formal and
informal learning going on inside and outside the classroom. Allen (2009) goes so far as to note that "developments
in assessment using the Internet will only be authentic if they take account of the way the Internet functions outside
of higher education, rather than seeing it as an educational technology divorced from its own authenticity" (p. 1).
Allen goes even further to state:

Since this kind of knowledge work is becoming the norm, without a social media / Web 2.0 approach
to assessment, traditional approaches (essays, tests, student-centred discussions and presentations)
will begin to appear inauthentic if they do not, to some extent at least, recognize and embrace
Internet-enabled knowledge networking. (p. 4)

They can be repurposed for multiple stakeholder levels within an organization. The same Google Apps for
Education tools used for student collaborations can also be used by an instructor to share documents with a
colleague, possibly allowing them to co-author research in a much simpler and efficient manner than ever before.
The administration can also benefit from use of such tools for the same reasons.

They are cost efficient. An institution making use of Web 2.0 tools will see efficiencies of scale due to savings in
cost (usually free) and resources expended to create the tools (virtually none). These are ample savings potentials
compared to the usually large fixed costs required to produce similar proprietary materials. Web 2.0 tools are proving
beneficial to institutions seeking affordable, scalable solutions for course content.

Some institutions are using Web 2.0 technologies for course management (Rienzo& Han, 2009). It would seem such
institutions must examine these tools now, when considering the threat of a truly Web 2.0 style service such as
Ududtu.com, which offers a free method of not only creating learning objects but also a means of creating a
standalone LMS within the confines of Facebook, a popular social networking site. The user can upload interactive
content made at Udutu and then track a student's graded progress within the LMS app. Some of the more hyperbolic
enthusiasts of Web 2.0 applications such as this have claimed that it brings a "transformation of learning" (Selwyn,
2009, p. 1). While there is ample room for skepticism of such lofty claimsand some of it well deservedrecent
research has discerned and noted definitive benefits to using Web 2.0 technologies in the online classroom.

Documented Benefits

While there seems to be a general paucity of directly measurable data on the benefits of Web 2.0 technology for
online education, there is some relatively fresh evidentiary research that can be referenced. A recent research report
funded by Becta, a British government agency charged with effective use of innovative technology in learning,
recently released a major report on the impact of Web 2.0 technology on secondary schools (Crook, Fisher, Graber,
Harrison, &Lewin., 2009). The report is based on evidence gathered from field studies, guided surveys of 2600
students, and interviews and online surveys conducted with instructors, technical staff, administration, and parents.

The report contains many fascinating findings regarding usage of Web 2.0 technologies, challenges to
implementation, policy, and more. It also explicitly cites four potential benefits of Web 2.0 on teaching and learning:

It stimulates new modes of inquiry.

It creates new opportunities for collaborative learning.

It allows students to engage with new literacies and express themselves in different media.
It encourages a proficiency in the publication of content, which creates a sense of ownership,
audience engagement, peer assessment, and informal learning.

These documented benefits lend much support to the undocumented benefits being on the right track in terms of how
Web 2.0 technologies can positively impact the teaching and learning process. But how do these benefits play out
against the most commonly known and agreed-upon best practices in online education?

Mapping Benefits to Best Practices

Much has been written in the literature regarding best practices in distance educationfrom Chickering and
Gamsons seven principles (1987) to Hacker and Niederhauser (2000) to Berge (2002) and many others. Throughout
the literature, four common themes are reiterated as being best practices for online/distance education. In short,
faculty need to:

Facilitate learning

Foster interaction

Use collaborative problem solving

Provide prompt feedback

The examples below discuss these four best practices in more detail and examine where Web 2.0 technologies align
with them.

Facilitate Learning

In pursuit of Lewis and Al-Hamids (2006) notion of the importance of facilitating learning in online education, the
authors note that "[t]he use of learning objects such as video clips and other digital resources was another strategy for
some of the exemplary faculty" (p.12). One of the richest Web 2.0 veins to be mined is learning objects. Users of
such sites may simply access and utilize the pre-authored content on a site, or may, in the true spirit of Web 2.0,
create and share their own content with the community. Additionally, the user may collaborate with others in this
creation and sharing of content.

If an instructor or student is not interested in authoring his or her own content, thousands of free videos are available
from services such as YouTube, Hulu, and dozens of other lesser-known video-sharing sites. Pertinent videos on
virtually any imaginable subject can now be found online, and they can be embedded directly within an online
classroom via auto-generated HTML code supplied by the servicescreating a highly contextualized, engaging
experience for the learner. Video services continue to develop additional features, making the content even more
beneficial to learning via functions such as Hulus ability to select and embed only a segment of a video and
YouTubes new automated closed-captioning service.

Other types of learning objects abound, like those found in repositories of pre-authored interactive learning objects
such as Merlot, where objects are freely shared. Learning objects themselves may actually be authored and then
shared within a Web 2.0 service community such as Flickr for pictures, ZohoShare for presentations, or Google Docs
for collaboration on various types of documents. Students themselves may then participate in the selection (or
outright creation) and sharing of such learning objects within a class, supporting Anderson and Wark's (2004) vision
of a classroom that is populated with student-supplied content and their conclusion that
an instructional design based on student construction and sharing of knowledge in a web based
portal is perceived to be a valued and worthwhile learning experience. Students report this design
provides as much or more learning, challenge and skill acquisition as other courses in the program
do. (Conclusion section, paragraph 2)

Not only does this sort of model enable constructivist learning to occur, but the content itself, which is located or
created by the students, can also save instructors the time investment required to locate or create such materials
themselves.

Foster Interaction

The importance of interaction between the online instructor, students, and peers has been noted numerous times in
the literature, due to a sense that isolation can arise in the online learning experience (Lewis & Al-Hamid, 2006).
While attempting to meet online learners' expectations of the instructors constant presence, or at least the
appearance of a constant presence, the already heavy workload of the instructor can be increased. Various strategies,
which are supported by Web 2.0 technologies, are available to the instructor to lessen the strain of maintaining a high
degree of interaction, including the use of a synchronous peer tutoring mechanism (Westera, De Bakker,
&Wagemans, 2009).

Web 2.0 technologies and services are by their very nature about interaction, some more specifically than others.
Internet phone services such as Skype and instant messaging services such as AIM enable synchronous interactions;
blogs and microblogs, wikis, and social networks all offer ample asynchronous interaction opportunities. Googles
highly anticipated Wave tool promises to take interaction to a whole new level (Devaney, 2009).

Use Collaborative Problem Solving

Theorists and practitioners alike have often flagged collaborative activities as a best practice for enhancing online
learning. Research (Gokhale, 1995) has also shown this to be true. However, the Internet prior to Web 2.0 could not
offer a great variety or very dynamic modesof collaboration. This situation has been transformed by the
possibilities that Web 2.0 technologies can offer. Powerful new tools abound to enable enhanced collaborative
learning opportunities. One such class of tools involves Web conferencing environments. At one time, Web
conferencing was a technically challenging and expensive resource of the elite. Even a short time ago, a proprietary
Web conferencing system would require large sums of money and time to support it. Now, with the availability of
Web 2.0 versions of this class of tool, the door has been opened to all. Tools such as Mikogo offer a large array of
collaborative features, such as desktop and application sharing, remote keyboard and mouse control, meeting
recording and playback, whiteboards, file exchange, and more for free.

Other sorts of Web 2.0 tools for collaboration include the document sharing class of tools. Web 2.0 versions of office
suites are numerous, but perhaps the most notable is Google Docs and its sister project, Google Apps for Education.
Google Docs is free and available to anyone with Internet access. It allows one to use the Internet cloud as a new sort
of desktop, with all the functionality of a users local computer. The key difference is that the documents created in
Google Docs are available to the user from any computer in the world that has an Internet connectionand they also
allow for synchronous or asynchronous collaboration.

For synchronous usage, a user could overlay the use of Skype to collaboratively examine, review, and discuss a
particular phrase in a document, a formula in a spreadsheet cell, or the images included in a PowerPoint presentation.
An asynchronous approach could involve a user simply making edits and then inviting the collaborator to visit and
review automatically tracked changes at his/her convenience. Other services related to these initiatives include
Google Groups, which creates interest groups, and Google Sites, which allows collaborative creation of Web sites
and related files. All of these tools are examples of Web 2.0 technology that encourage publishing proficiency.

Provide Prompt Feedback

There seems to be nearly unanimous agreement in the literature on the need for prompt feedback in the online
classroom. This task is also acknowledged as being time-intensive for the instructor. It is possible that the creative
use of some Web 2.0 tools could help eliminate this burden.

In an earlier age, the notion of using voice-based feedback to reduce the writing load and speed up the feedback
process was technically difficult and required ownership of software to create and edit the recordings. The instructor
would then be responsible for sending the file to the student. In a Web 2.0 world, the whole process becomes much
simpler, with a free service offering the entire process from a single location in the cloud. Services such
VoiceThread, for example, can create a sort of voice thread (not surprising then, its choice of name) that goes one
step further in that it can "enable asynchronous comments and feedback from students and tutors alike around pieces
of media such as video clips, images and presentations" (Burden & Atkinson, 2008, p. 2).

Conclusion

While it has been believed for some time that Web 2.0 technologies held strong promise to benefit online classrooms,
there is now also corroborating evidence from recent research that testifies to Web 2.0's positive impact on teaching
and learning. These benefits can be directly aligned to key existing best practices in online education, which serves
to further substantiate the validity of these tools for the educational environment.

I think the display is very effective, in a sense that one would not smoke or even inhale secondhand smoke
because of the visual message it delivers

What suggestions can you make?

10SuggestionsForAnEffectiveDisplayBoard
1. Create an attention-getter at the top. This should clue the viewer in to the topic of the
display.
2. Use diagonal lines. Diagonal lines give the feeling of action and make it more interesting
to look at. Diagonal lines can also be created by the placement of the information cards.
3. Use contrasting colors: dark on light or light on dark. This makes things stand out.
Remember the viewer needs to be able to see your information clearly. Also, check font size
for ease of reading. Colors should also be appropriate to the topic.
4. Have LOTS of visuals. Keep the words to a minimum.
5. Set up your board logically from left to right.
6. Use 3-D (form) if possible on your board. An example would be a map that "pops out".
7. Have an interactive section (optional). Create things for people to move, touch, and learn
from.
8. Include objects, artifacts, and food when possible.
9. Utilize the space on your display board. There should be no big, empty areas.
10. Make your presentation board look PROFESSIONAL.Based on your suggestions, propose an
enhanced version of the display board. Use the form below.

angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but
rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes,
always perseveres.8 Love never fails.

My Reflection
1. Name at least 5 skills that a teacher should have to be able to come
up with effective board displays. Elaborate on why each skill is
needed.

The skills that a teacher should possess in order to come up


with an effective board display are
Creativity she/he must be able to come up with unique
ways to portray lessons or concepts.
Elegance she/he must strive for balance between vibrant
and conservative design so that themessage will be delivered properly.
Ingenuity she/he will be able to apply problem solving skills in coming up with a
display.
Resourcefulness she/he will be able to come up with an effective board display
using the availableresources at hand.
Innovativeness she/he will be able to introduce contemporary topics to his/her
board display.

2. Which of the skills you named in #1 do you already have? Recall your past experiences in making
board displays. How do you practice these skills?
The skills that I already have are creativity, resourcefulness and innovativeness. I do not have much
experience in making board display, the one that I could clearly remember was in elementary, but I am
able to practicethese skills through the lessons in the course I am taking right now.

3. Which skills do you still need to develop? What concrete steps will you take on how you can improve on
or acquire these skills?
I feel that I need to develop more elegance and ingenuity in coming up with designs not only in making
aboard display and other instructional materials. I can improve on these skills by constant practice and
byresearch on various designs helpful in coming up with instructional materials.

My Map
To reach your target, follow the steps below:
Class Observation Guide
Step 1. Observe a class on its
regular schedule.

Step 2. Note down the various


teaching aids utilized in the teaching
learning process.

Step 3. Comment on the


appropriateness of the teaching
aids to the learning tasks.

Step 4. Reflect on your


learnings.

My Tools
As you observe the class, use the activity forms provided for you to document your observations.

Read the following statements carefully before you observe.


1. What is the lesson about?
The lesson that catches more my attention is the subject verb agreement.

2. What visual aids/ materials/learning resources is the teacher using?


Mrs. Lilia Subion provided a free copy of the lesson contents including the test
questionnaire. All the students have to do is to read and answer the exercise right
after the discussion.

3. Observe and take notes on how the teacher presents/ uses the learning resources.
The teacher discussing the lesson content that can be found on the given copy. The
students will read and participate, the teacher do a random calling of the students to
recite. The last activity and given test was also based in the provided copy. The
students can easily and clearly understand what they are going to do.

4 Closely observe the learners responses to the teachers use of learning resources.
Listen to their verbal responses. What do their responses indicate? Do did their
responses show attentiveness, eagerness and understanding?
Yes the responses are good and motivating in part of both learners and teachers.

4. Focus on their non-verbal responses. Is their learning forward showing their interest
on the lesson and the materials? Are they looking towards the direction of the
teacher and the materials? Do their actions show attentiveness, eagerness and
understanding?
Yes, the materials add the interest of the students because it is very easy for them
to access the lesson proper.the students really learn.

My Analysis
What do you think prompted the teacher to choose the materials/learning
resources that she/he used?
- I think the teacher used books to guide the learners and support their
learnings. The teacher prompted to use pictures of different places and
events because, maybe, she knew that pupils will listen to her attentively
using those aids.
What difficulties, if any, did the teacher experience? How can this be
managed?
- The difficulties experienced by the teacher in teaching those topics were the different level of intelligences
and different behaviors that her pupils possessed. Since, most of the pupils have short span of attention.
But still, she was able to manage them through his way of awakening the pupils in saying yelling to them
when they got bored.

Over-all, were the learning resources/materials used effectively? Why? Why not?
- All learning resources/materials used slight effective because only few learners got the passing
score. Most of them got score below the passing score. But, the teacher made a remedial to those who did
not pass her given exam

My Reflection
1. Put yourself in the place of the teacher. What would you do similarly
and what would do differently if you would teach the same lesson to
the same group of students? Why?

If I were the teacher, I would do similarly during my class


discussion. I would use books and pictures as visual aids to
support my teachings. But what would vary differently from
activities to my pupils. I would make my pictures big so that it
will be visible to the learners. I would also give first a motivational song related to my topic, explain
it to them. Later on, I would give lectures about adjectives that describe places and events by
giving them examples. Then, I will give them time to create sentences to their own.

An Observation/Survey Guide

My Tools
As you observe the class, use the activity forms provided for you to document your observations.

1. Are there learning resources useful for your topic in the resource center you visited?

- Yes, there are learning resources/materials useful for my topics that are present in the resource
center.
2. Are the available materials appropriate for your target grade/year level?

- Yes, there are available materials appropriate for my target grade/year level. These will surely help
and facilitate learnings to the pupils.
2. List down those that can be useful for your topic.

- Learning materials useful for my topic are the books, manila paper, pentel pen, chalks, pictures and
charts.

What other materials can you make? (Like flash cards, posters, cut-outs, transparencies,
etc)?
- The other materials that I can make are cut-out letters, flash cards and visual aids.

My Analysis
Give at least three benefits of doing a survey of available materials before making
your own materials? Explain each.

1. Surveying available materials improves your motivation in making creative


teaching aids for your discussion. In such a way, teaching aids support and
facilitate learnings to the pupils.

2. It gives you an idea what specific topic to be discussed, sometimes. Especially if


we are tired, we cannot ready/prepare our lesson plan to be discussed. Through
surveying available materials, we can get hint or idea what topic to be discussed
that is suited for available materials.

3. It helps you decide what activities to be included depending upon the available
resources suited to your specific topic. Yes, it is true for the fact that available
learning resources gives you an idea what activities to be included that could
facilitate learning.
4. It lessens cost/expenditures in making visual aids because once you knew that there
are visual aids appropriate for your topic, you dont need to buy manila paper and ink
for your pentel pen. The time and money spending will be lessened.
My Reflection
1. Which of the materials did you like making the most? Why?
- The materials that Id liked making the most were printed materials and cut-out letters. I liked it because it
is my passion since high school in making printed materials, I was always then, selected as secretary in our
classroom. I liked cutting letters though it was time-consuming but I enjoyed a lot.

2. What difficulties, if any, did you encounter in making the materials? How did you overcome them?
- I have not found difficulties in making printed materials. But in cutting letters, I found difficulties in folding
and cutting letters since my hands shake when I was about to cut the letters.
3. What tips can you give teachers regarding preparation of teaching materials?
they should have decided the topic to be discussed before going to the learning resource center.
b. Teachers should make teaching materials in a creative way, in order to get the attention of the pupils.
c. Teachers should have a survey on the available resources in the learning center, to lessen the
cost/expenditures in making visual aids if it is available.
d. After knowing the available resources, they should decide what activities to be imposed using those
available resources.

to be used that is best suited to my topic, as well as, the preparation of the hand-out because it was time-
consuming.

2. What tips can you give teachers regarding preparation of hand-outs?


- In preparation of hand-outs, the teacher should decide what topic to be discussed. After deciding,
the teacher should choose what graphic organizer is best suited to the topic. The teacher should be flexible in
meeting the needs of the learners since learners have multiple intelligences and varied learning styles.

PERSONAL REFLECTION OF FS PORTFOLIO

FS portfolio is designed to exhibits Fs students works, their analysis, and their personal reflections from

their observation in field study activity. It focuses on how students acquire knowledge and understanding in the

process of learning to teach, and how they are acquired. Thus, field study is a component of the new Pre-service

Teacher Education Curriculum that aims to explore the students to actual field experiences so that they can relate
the theories learned inside the classroom with those experiences. These off-classroom experiences would

emphasize the importance of understanding the complex work of the teacher in this era of globalization.

Therefore, in this field study experiences we, as a pre-service teacher arrived at our own analysis and

reflection of what we have observed from the actual setting of teaching-learning process. Our personal reflection

played in the growth and development of us pre-service teacher. Reflection allows us explore our experiences in

order to arrive at new understanding or insights. Thus, The field study experience is geared towards exactly this, to

give pre-service teachers the opportunity to learn through meaningful and systematic exposure in actual settings.

Moreover, by this field study subject we are given an opportunity to experience the real setting of teaching.

In which we can therefore conclude that teaching is not an easy task. Teachers need to be patient and flexible in

dealing with the individual differences of the learners to cope up and transform them into high competitive

individual. With this experience, we were able to come up what a teacher can be, should be, and must be.

My Analysis
After working on your slide presentation, answer the following questions:
What are the good features of a slide presentation?
The good features of a slide presentation are use links in the presentation, make the presentation not too long, keep it
simple, include transitions/effects in your slide to put emphasis on your point, and use the same theme for the whole
presentation.
My Reflections
1 What difficulties, if any, did you encounter in making the slide presentation? How did you overcome
them?
- In making a slide presentation the teacher should consider the learning process of the
students, it should be unique and at the same time creative in a way that the students
can understand what you have made. For me, there is no such thing as difficulties in
making a slide presentation as long as you strive hard or take an effort in doing that
thing. In presenting your slide presentation, the teacher should consider also the
interest of the students so that they will listen attentively and can catch the attention
of the students. In making a slide presentation it also helps the teacher summarize all
of his/her discussion and the length of the time required for discussion can be
lessened. Instead of making a visual aid it is better to make a slide presentation to
have an effective and good interaction with the students.
As a future teacher, I will do my very best in doing a slide presentation and can come
up with a good presentation. It can help the students to take down notes while Im
discussing. For me, it is good to make a slide presentation to make your work faster
and easier to handle.

My Portfolio
Attached a CD containing the following:

1. An electronic copy of your presentation here.


2. A collection of down-loaded slide presentations, slide templates, clip arts, fonts that may be
useful for you in the feature. (Be sure to paste listing of the contents of the CD on this page, too.)

Class Observation Guide

My Tools
Please use the Class Observation Guide provided for you.

Read the following statements carefully before you observe.

1. What is lesson about? What are the teachers objectives?


The teacher discussed about the subject verb agreement. Her objective is after the lesson proper the
students could use appropriate verb for a particularsubject in the sentence.
2. Note the important concepts that the teacher is emphasizing.
The teacher wants to emphasize the correct usage of verb for a particular subject. She also considers
the rules in constructing a sentence using a correct subject and appropriate subject as well.

3. Note the skills that the teacher developing in the learners.


She is developing the grammar capacity of the students and the learner.

My Analysis
Using the information you got from observing the class, surf the internet for electronic resources that will
be useful in teaching the same lesson. Choose the most appropriate ones. Recall the guidelines you
learned in Educational Technology about evaluating electronic resources. These guidelines will help you
fill out the matrix below.

My Reflections
1.Describe your experience in surfing the internet for appropriate electronic
resources for the class? Did you find it easy or difficult?
On my experiences in surfing the net to find sites that provide support materials
and interactive programs on my topic, I found out that it easy to get
information about your topic because there is a website that can assist you in
your field of specialization like in mathematics, the the virtual Math Lab. I
feel comfortable in searching information about my topic that I was observed. I
saw and understand what is really the point of my topic and I learned how easily to come up
about my topic.

1. How did you choose which electronic resources to include here? What you consider? Explain.
I choose it by means of their specific functions and usage. I always consider the advantage and
disadvantages of using them in school as learning resources.

2. Reflect on your technology skills. What skills do you already have and what skills would you
continue to work on to be better at utilizing electronic resources?
I already master the basic programming and all the basics in computer operation which is really
helpful for me as a future mentor. I am literate in M.S Office application and other components that
might be very helpful in teaching career like photo editing and web surfing and etc. Since everyday
there is a change in technology, I prefer to study more regarding it.
