Directions: Twit your thoughts about “Reflecting on Technology-based Learning Experiences
using the RIE Chart. Compose your message inside the illustrated cellular phones below. (15 points)
RECALL: Recall how your teachers in your field of specialization used information and communication
technologies to help you understand some concepts in your lessons.
IDENTIFY: Identify the specific lesson and learning objectives of your teacher. Were you able to
understand the lesson and demonstrate the learning objectives with the teacher’s integration of
ICT? Why?
ENHANCE: If you are to enhance the ICT used by your teacher, how will you do it? Will you use
the same ICT or will you modify how it was integrated?
Discussion:
The implementation of the K & to 12 Curriculum of the Department of Education paved the
way for the enhancement of the Teacher Education Curriculum of the Commission on Higher
Education (CHED). The salient features of the K to 12 Curriculum have been thoroughly considered
to ensure that all the courses in the teacher education program will meet the demands of the 21"
century classrooms. One of the considerations is the need to implement the following salient
features of the curriculum through integrating technologies for teaching and learning. The use of
technologies is done
in the different levels of learning and in teaching the various fields of specialization.
Salient Features of the Curriculum Through Integrating Technologies for Teaching and Learning.
1. Strengthening Early Childhood Education (Universal Kindergarten)
With the Universal Kindergarten program of the Department, every Filipino child is expected
to have access to early childhood education. This access can be facilitated using technological
tools that are readily available to the school for teachers’ use.
The use of technology in Kindergarten by various schools is very evident in teaching the
kindergarten pupils the alphabet, numbers, shapes, and colors through games, songs, and dances
in their Mother Tongue.
2. Making the Curriculum Relevant to Learners (Contextualization and Enhancement)
Research shows that learners will value a curriculum that is relevant to their lives. Students
are often heard saying, “Do I need to know these to live a meaningful life?” “How will I use this lesson
in the actual workplace?” “What is the relevance of this to me?” and so on. The answer to the
question of relevance is vital to help the teachers think of some ways by which they will be able to
let their students realize that their daily lessons are of good use to their personal well-being and
to their professional preparation.
Sara Bernard (2010) stressed that students need to have a personal connection to the
lesson material that can be done through engaging them emotionally or through connecting the
information with that which they already know. This she calls “Give it Context, and Make it
Count.”
21st Century learners are expected to be demonstrating 21st century competencies such as
collaboration, digital literacy, critical thinking, and problem solving to be able to thrive in the
world (Rich, 2014). Contextualizing the curriculum of the students for meaningful learning poses
challenges in enhancing teachers’ pedagogical skills as well as technological skills.
3. Building Proficiency (Mother-Tongue Based Multilingual Education)
To be able to promote the child’s dominant language and to use it as a language
instruction, maximum use of technological tools is highly encouraged. Currently, a lot of
teachers are into developing learning materials to be able to implement the MTB-MLE program
properly especially that there is a dearth of printed and e-materials in the mother tongue of the
students. Mother Tongue is used in instruction and learning materials of other learning areas.
The learners retain their ethnic identity, culture, heritage and values. Children learn better and
are more active in class and learn a second language even faster when they are first taught in a
language they understand.
4. Ensuring Integrated and Seamless Learning (Spiral Progression)
Learning basic concepts that leads to a more complex and sophisticated version of the
general concepts entail TPACK: Technological knowledge, pedagogical knowledge, and content
knowledge. Rediscovering concepts previously presented as students go up in grade level will be
fully supported if all the areas of specialization will be aided by technologies for teaching and
learning. This will further strengthen retention and will enhance mastery of topics and skills as
they are revisited and consolidated time and again. This also allows learners to learn topics and
skills appropriate to their developmental and cognitive skills.
5. Gearing Up for the Future
The K to 12 Curriculum ensures college readiness by aligning the core and applied courses to
the College Readiness Standards (CRS) and the new General Education (GE) Curriculum. Hence,
the K to 12 Curriculum focused on developing appropriate Specialization Subjects for Academic,
Sports and
Design, and Technological Livelihood Tracks. All of these specialization subjects have to be
supported by educational technology for better learning.
6. Nurturing the Holistically Developed Filipino (College and Livelihood Readiness, 21st Century Skills)
To nurture holistically developed Filipino, every K to 12 graduates is expected to be ready to
go into different paths – higher education, employment, or entrepreneurship. Every graduate is
expected to be equipped with information, media and technology skills, learning and innovation
skills, effective communication skills, and life and career skills. This may happen with proper
implementation of the curriculum and with the facilitation by excellent teachers. For teachers to
maintain excellent performance, they need full support, one of which is technological support.
The Birth of the Most Essential Learning Competencies in the New Normal
As the COVID19 pandemic continues to impact various governments and economies
around the world, even schools are not spared from its crippling effects. The current global health
crisis poses a profound impact on the basic education system as approximately 87% of the
world’s student population, that is 1.5 billion learners, have been affected by school closures
(UNESCO, 2020). While interim distance and remote learning programs are being put in place in
many locations, the most marginalized, poverty-stricken, and vulnerable children are also the
most disadvantaged.
The Department of Education, through the Bureau of Curriculum Development-Curriculum
Standards Development Division, has developed the most essential learning competencies (MELCs) to
address the challenges brought about by the global pandemic. Its negative impact in the
educational system which include but not limited to the shortened school year, limited face to face
interaction of teachers and learners, and other instructional delivery-related concerns pose serious
problem most specifically to early childhood learners.
In determining the criteria for the selection of the most essential learning competencies,
the Department in consultation with stakeholders, during which the descriptor – ENDURANCE –
was considered the primary determining factor. A learning competency is considered enduring if it
remains with learners long after a test or unit of study is completed or if it is useful beyond a single
test or unit of study. Examples of such learning competencies include research skills, reading
comprehension, writing, map reading, and hypothesis testing, which are essential in many
professions and in everyday life (Reeves, 2002; Many & Horrell, 2014). The Department then
identified the MELCs through the application of these understandings.
Necessary in the above process is the decision whether a learning competency is to be
retained, merged, dropped, or rephrased. As a general rule, a learning competency is retained if
it satisfies the endurance criterion which greatly contributes to life-long learning and is a pre-requisite
skill to the next grade level. On the other hand, two or more learning competencies are merged
or clustered if they have the same objective or learning intention; and thus, can be combined
into one comprehensive learning competency. In addition, a significant number of learning
competencies is removed/dropped due to the following reasons:
they are too specific (and the articulation is similar to that of a learning objective;
they are deemed appropriate to be introduced in an earlier quarter or grade level
or moved to a later quarter or grade level;
they are recurring; and

The Department of Education streamlined the curriculum not just to respond to the
challenges of the current pandemic but also to respond to the call of SDG 4 to develop resilient
education systems, most especially during emergencies. Thus, it can be used under certain
circumstances as a mechanism to ensure education continuity through the curriculum dimension.

least five lessons vis-à-vis the ICT tools and a short description of how these were used. (15 points)
Your paper will be graded using the rubric below:
Discussion:
Teaching has been a challenging profession since knowledge has been expanding and
essential skills have been increasing and changing. With these challenges, teachers need to
engage educational technologies to assist them in the teaching-learning process. Engaging
educational technologies in teaching are founded on principles and philosophies. Understanding
these will help you successfully integrate technologies to allow your students to demonstrate the
intended learning outcomes of your field of specialization.
the Internet (website, blogs, and emails), live broadcasting technologies (radio, television
and webcasting), recorded broadcasting technologies (podcasting, audio, and video
players and storage devices) and telephony (fixed or mobile, satellite, vision/video-
conferencing, etc.)
UNESCO defines it also as scientific, technological and engineering discipline and
management technique used. ICT also refers to handling information, its application and
association with social, economic, and cultural matters.
4. Ratheeswari (2018)
Information Communication Technologies (ICT) influence every aspect of human
life. They play salient roles in workplaces, in business, education and entertainment. Moreover,
many people recognize ICTs as catalysts for change that include change in working
conditions, handling and exchanging information, teaching methods, learning approaches,
scientific research and in accessing information communication technologies. In this digital
era, ICT is important in the classroom for giving students opportunities to learn and apply the
required 21st century skills. ICT improves teaching and learning and helps teachers
perform their role as creators of pedagogical environment. ICT helps a teacher to present
his/her teaching attractively and enables learners to learn at any level of an educational
program.

Teaching and Learning Events and Associated Media Forms: (Czerniewicz & Brown (2005) adapted
from Laurillard (2002)
Laurillard’s Conversational Framework (LCF) is relevant in the field of language education
since this field requires appropriate and complex use of various technologies. The framework clearly
presents the way teaching events in language classrooms can be thoroughly related to their
language learning events. This is more effective in Blended Learning than in the Face-to-Face
context in the
developing terms of
learners’ skill in forming wh-questions.
Pedagogy
Interaction
with people
Social Technology
Interaction
The ICT Integration Framework of Wang can be fully maximized in developing learning plans
for language learning. Pedagogy often refers to the teaching strategies or techniques used to
deliver lessons and to allow learners to demonstrate competencies.
Social Interaction activities as one of the elements in the framework are crucial. Through
these, learners will acquire and develop knowledge and skills that are important for them to live
and work in various communities. To engage the learners in the teaching-learning process fully and
meaningfully, the social design of the ICT-based learning environment needs to deliver a secure
and comfortable space.
The third element of the framework is the technological component that generally uses
computers to support various learning activities. Through the use of computers, various teaching
modes may happen.
In the 21st century classrooms, the three components are needed in an ICT-based learning
environment. Due to the advent of technologies which are fundamental requirements in ICT-
pedagogy integration, the challenge among learning institutions is to provide support for the
integration to happen.
The successful integration of ICT into the learning environment will depend on the ability
of teachers to structure learning in new ways, to merge technology appropriately with a
pedagogy, develop socially active classrooms, and encourage cooperative interaction and
collaborative learning and group work. For many, this requires a different set of skills from those they
currently possess.
The table presented below entails the different ICT tools that a teacher may use in the
teaching and learning process.
Reading ICT-Integrated Lesson Plans Using IDEA Lesson Exemplar Format – the New Normal Way
Learning Plan in the New Normal
Before the pandemic, teachers in public and private elementary and secondary schools
had been using the 4As format in crafting their Daily Lesson Plan (DLL) or Daily Lesson Plan (DLP). This
format entails Activity, Analysis, Abstraction, and Application.
Now that we are in the new normal, a lot of things have changed in the educational
system brought about by the pandemic. One of the salient changes is the preparation of the
DLL/DLP of teachers. To better facilitate the teaching-learning process today, teachers are now
required to craft their DLL/DLP using the IDEA Lesson Exemplar format as prescribed by the
Department of Education.
This exemplar includes the following: Introduction – the I Phase, Development – the D
Phase, Engagement – the E Phase, and Assimilation – the A Phase. The IDEA instructional process
design is an abridged and refined format. All parts of the original DLL/DLP are subsumed in
PIVOT 4A lesson exemplars.
Sample Learning Plans in English, Science, and Mathematics subjects With ICT Integration Using IDEA

Discussion:
The activity above obviously shows that it is easier to write about something that is
relatable in our real-life situations because of our prior knowledge or experience.
Economic Forum, the top three of the ten skills needed in this age are complex problem solving,
critical thinking and creativity (Gray, 2016) which all start from the process of asking.
Inquiry-Based learning (IBL) as an approach essentially involves tasks requiring learner’s
active participation in finding answers to curricular questions. The questions can run from very
specific simple questions to more complex questions in relation to the curriculum. Learners are
given opportunities to engage in self-regulated activities as they pursue their investigation. Using
this in the language classroom can facilitate the development of communication skills as it involves
activities such as writing questions, deliberating on ways of finding answers to curricular questions,
and presenting outputs as evidence of inquiry among others. This approach encourages students
to work together in accomplishing their task.
The process of inquiry starts from positing a question aligned to a content standard in the K
to 12 curriculum for English. Investigation proceeds using various sources of information and
presentation of outputs of the students using productivity tool. Depending on the required output,
the assessment tool that will be used should be given to the students before the inquiry
commences.
When to Use
Chisholm and Godley (2011) purport that inquiry-based instruction (IBI) offers an
especially appropriate approach to learning about language variation, identity, and power since IBI
can provide students with opportunities to learn about current issues in sociolinguistics through sharing
and debating on a personal experience with language from multiple perspectives.
Types of Inquiry
VIU (2020) presented four types of inquiry that can be used in facilitating classes. These are:
1. Structured Inquiry – This lets the students follow the lead of the teacher as the entire
class engages in one inquiry together.
2. Controlled Inquiry – The teacher chooses topics and identifies the resources that the
students will use to answer questions.
3. Guided Inquiry – The teacher chooses topics or questions, and students design the
product or solution.
4. Free Inquiry – Students are allowed to choose their own topics without any reference to
a prescribed outcome.
When designing an IBL, the teacher has to consider the following fields proposed by Avsec
and Kocijncic (2016):
1. Prior knowledge and capacity
2. Context – Learners require meaning from experience
3. Content and learning materials
4. Process
5. Strategy of reactions and behavior
6. Course outcomes
Role of Technology
The internet or the World Wide Web offers lots of platforms for mining information. It has
become the most sought out source of information because of the variety of tools that abound.
Language is no longer a barrier in one’s search for information. Depending on the unit of the
study in a language curriculum, there are many free educational websites that are available for
the language teachers and learners. Due to the vastness of sources of information from the WWW,
any language teacher who is using IBL has the responsibility to direct learners to websites that provide
the proper information. The technology tools that are made available for the learners, whether online
or offline, should support the object of inquiry which is aligned to the learning competencies in the
K to 12 Language Curriculum.
It should be noted that the use of technology in IBL is just one of the many other sources
of information in the process of inquiry. This does not exclude the other resources, human and non-
human, in gathering information. However, learners are undeniably familiar and probably more
adept in exploring the internet. Guiding them in locating online resources that are relevant in
developing their research and communication skills will let them learn the importance of using
educational resources in an explicit and implicit way.
5. Materials such as data, photographs, articles, can be used to solve the problem.
(p.73) Lo (2009, p. 208) proposed a six-stage process used in the adoption of the online
PBL:
1. Identifying the problem – current issues that do not have just one answer or one definite
solution;
2. Brainstorming – generate ideas; tackle the problem though self-directed questioning;
arouse students intrinsic motivation;
3. Collecting and analyzing the information – assigning group members to collect
information; positing what they found and what the learned; collaborative collection of
useful information;
4. Synthesizing information – solving the problem through synthesized relevant data;
knowledge building;
5. Co-building knowledge – presentation of the solution to the learning problem/issue; and
6. Refining the outcomes – giving of feedback and suggestions by the instructor to help students
improve; learning from other group’s presentation.
active English learning attitudes of the two groups and found that the PBL participants’
“motivation intensity, their desire to learn English, and communication inside and outside the
classroom were significantly higher than those of the participants of the non-PBL group” (p.
116). The research also found that the PBL participants’ active English learning attitudes are
significantly related to their reading comprehension.
The acceptability of PBL as an approach to teaching and learning does not only involve the
learners but also the teachers. In the study of Markuslic and Sabljic (2019), they sought to establish
the teachers’ attitudes on the problem-based teaching of literature. Their data revealed that PBL
is an “acceptable methodological system” because they saw “greater interest and activity of
students, development of student’s critical thinking and communication skills, encouraging
curiosity and exploratory thinking, developing love of reading, and developing the skills of
connecting teaching topics” (p.27).
Role of Technology
How is technology integrated in the PBL activity? As the learners embark on an open-
ended question collaboratively, there are a number of free online tools that they can use from
the commencement of the task to its completion especially that some of the group tasks will be
done outside the regular class hours. These online tools will be allow the learners to be actively
connected and engaged in the group task while monitoring their own contributions. The teacher
acting as facilitator may also have the opportunity to peep into the activities of each learner
thereby enabling him/her to give feedback at any stage of the PBL activity. Bower, Hedberg and
Kuswara (2010) stress that technology is simply the mediator for collaboration and representation
and that is the type of task and thinking processes in which students engage that determine the
quality of learning (p.181)
The WWW has opportunities for PBL that can be utilized by the learners to accomplish their
tasks. Web 2.0 technologies are characterized by collaboration, sharing and networking. These
may facilitate and enhance PBL activities (Tambouris et al, 2012) in its different stages. In the study
of Kung (2018), it was found that advanced language learners had positive perception about the
use of Web
2.0 technology in writing instruction.
Productivity tools such as those for writing, presentations, spreadsheets, calendars, organizers,
citations and others are also available to assist learners and teachers in accomplishing requires
tasks and outputs from a PBL activity. There are free tools that can be downloaded for mobile
phones, laptops, or desktops. Before using or recommending these tools to learners, it is important
that teachers take note or try out the tools first to be familiar with the most appropriate tool for the
PBL activity.
When using PBL, the learning competencies must be the primary consideration together
with the content and performance standards before the technology integration. As soon as these
are in place, the statement of learning outcomes in the learning plan must be stated in
behavioral and measurable terms. PBL is about developing higher order thinking skills;
therefore, the taxonomy of objectives should be utilized to ensure that you are targeting the
required outcomes. Consider using the revised Bloom’s taxonomy by Anderson and Krathwohi in
creating your learning outcomes.

Lesson Objectives:
At the end of this lesson, you will be able to:
1. recognize the importance of lesson planning;
2. identify the different parts of a lesson plan using the 4As Approach;
3. scrutinize sample learning plans demonstrated in a public school; and
4. craft a learning plan with ICT integration.
Getting Started:
Directions: Think of words or phrases that will best describe the importance of lesson planning. Write
your words/phrases in the given word cloud below. (10 points)
Discussion:
A lesson plan is the instructor’s road map of what students need to learn and how it will be
done effectively during the class time. Before you plan your lesson, you will first need to identify the
learning objectives for the class meeting. Then, you can design appropriate learning activities
and develop strategies to obtain feedback on student learning.
A successful lesson plan addresses and integrates these three key components:
• Objectives for student learning
• Teaching/learning activities
• Strategies to check student understanding
Specifying concrete objectives for student learning will help you determine the kinds of
teaching and learning activities you will use in class, while those activities will define how you will
check whether the learning objectives have been accomplished (see Fig. 1).
students an electronic survey or asking them to write comments on index cards. This additional
information can help shape your introduction, learning activities, etc. When you have an idea of
the students’ familiarity with the topic, you will also have a sense of what to focus on.
Develop a creative introduction to the topic to stimulate interest and encourage thinking.
You can use a variety of approaches to engage students (e.g., personal anecdote, historical
event, thought-provoking dilemma, real-world example, short video clip, practical application,
probing question, etc.). Consider the following questions when planning your
introduction:
• How will I check whether students know anything about the topic or have any preconceived
notions about it?
• What are some commonly held ideas (or possibly misconceptions) about this topic that students
might be familiar
with or might espouse?
• What will I do to introduce the topic?
(3)Plan the specific learning activities (the main body of the lesson)
Prepare several different ways of explaining the material (real-life examples, analogies,
visuals, etc.) to catch the attention of more students and appeal to different learning styles. As
you plan your examples and activities, estimate how much time you will spend on each. Build in
time for extended explanation or discussion, but also be prepared to move on quickly to different
applications or problems, and to identify strategies that check for understanding. These
questions would help you design the learning activities you will use:
• What will I do to explain the topic?
• What will I do to illustrate the topic in a different way?
• How can I engage students in the topic?
• What are some relevant real-life examples, analogies, or situations that can help students
understand the topic?
• What will students need to do to help them understand the topic better?
(4)Plan to check for understanding
Now that you have explained the topic and illustrated it with different examples, you need
to check for student understanding – how will you know that students are learning? Think about
specific questions you can ask students in order to check for understanding, write them down,
and then paraphrase them so that you are prepared to ask the questions in different ways. Try
to predict the answers your questions will generate. Decide on whether you want students to
respond orally or in writing. Here are some guiding questions you can ask yourself:
• What questions will I ask students to check for understanding?
• What will I have students do to demonstrate that they are following?
• Going back to my list of learning objectives, what activity can I have students do to check
whether each of those has been accomplished?
An important strategy that will also help you with time management is to anticipate
students’ questions. When planning your lesson, decide what kinds of questions will be productive for
discussion and what questions might sidetrack the class. Think about and decide on the balance
between covering content (accomplishing your learning objectives) and ensuring that students
understand.

Lesson Objectives:
At the end of this lesson, you should be able to:
1. Recall and share experiences in using open-ended tools/productivity software applications
when you were still a student.
2. Identify uses, advantages and disadvantages of open-ended tools/productivity software
applications in the teaching-learning of your field of specialization.
3. Report on new and emerging productivity tools that are beneficial for learning in your field
of specialization.
Getting Started:
Discussion:
For many years now, teaching and learning has always been aided by tools to make it
more meaningful and effective. Whether it may be the conventional or technology-integrated
ones, the need for such is totally inevitable.
In today’s classroom, the use of ICT tools particularly those called as open-ended tools or
productivity software applications, are now in demand especially these days of the pandemic.
But what are these open-ended tools and how do we use these effectively as we teach specific
fields of specialization?
Open-ended tools or productivity software applications as implied earlier are ICT tools,
which help the teachers and learners make their learning together as concrete, efficient,
encouraging and meaningful as possible. These tools help meet the demands of the learners in
the 21st century classrooms. In the previous module, you learned about the 21st century skills
that students ought to develop, and teachers ought to cater to. As a reminder, below is a list of
what teachers should do to respond to the demands of the 21st century 1.
1. Create a learner-centered classroom and make instruction personalized because learners
have different personalities, goals, and needs;
2. Facilitate learner’s productivity skills by helping students produce creative blogs, digital
stories and movies that are helpful to enhance their language/mathematics/science
proficiency.
3. Learn new technologies since technology keeps on developing. Learning a tool once is not
an option for a teacher.
4. Be smart and allow the use of devices as aids to language/mathematics/science concept
and skill acquisition
5. Do blogging to give students real experience to see the value of writing for real audience
and establishing their digital presence.
6. Go digital to promote the advocacy and to help level up the
language/mathematics/science learning experience of the students through digital
discussions.
7. Collaborate with other educators and students. This will allow the sharing of great ideas
beyond a conversation and paper copy.
8. Use web chats to share research and ideas and stay updated in the field.
9. Connect with like-minded individuals by using media tools like the social media.
[Link] Project Based Learning to allow students to develop their own driving questions,
conduct research, contact experts, and create their projects for sharing with the use of
devices present.
[Link] positive digital footprint that aims to model appropriate use of social media, produce
and publish valuable content and create shareable resources.
12. Code as it is today’s literacy. This will boost students’ writing skills as the feeling of writing a page
with HTML is amazing.
[Link] expand your teaching toolbox for the sake of your students, engage social media
for discussions and announcements and use new formats like TED talks in presenting your
lessons.
14. Keep learning.

What then are some of the open-ended tools/productivity software applications that we can use?
And how do we use these tools properly and effectively?
Since you are already aware of the different software/applications that you can use for Word
Processing, Slide presentations, and spreadsheets, let us describe its basic features and dive further
into how these are applied in teaching and learning. A. Using Word in Scaffolding Students Learning
Recall that scaffolding is used to refer to various forms of support given to assist, guide,
or facilitate the learning process (Word Links, 2018). Examples of scaffolding for learning that are
usually prepared using word applications are learning plans, assessment tools, templates and
forms, graphic organizers, and others.
As reflected on the productivity tools mentioned in the previous page, Word Applications
basically allows users to do write-ups and create documents. It has advanced features which
allow such users to format and edit files and documents in the best possible way (BYJU, 2021). A
user can also add tables, pictures, charts, and many more.
Word applications are the primary platform used by teachers in creating a lesson plan (which is also one of the most important instrument
in teaching). But just because a template of the lesson plan (or daily lesson log) is given to you doesn’t mean you do not need to know how it is
made up using Word. This skill is vital especially at times when you have to edit and improve the learning plan on your own. So make sure you
know the knicks and knacks of using this software.
Besides knowing how to insert tables and text in a lesson plan, one should also learn how
to make use of/create process guides and/or graphic organizers. These tools are what a teacher
may implement to aid students in doing their assignments and various tasks. It is also helpful in
organizing, clarifying, or simplifying complex information (whether it may be in learning English,
Mathematics, Science, and other subject matters). Below are graphic organizers that one ought
to learn how to create using word application. Besides, isn’t it better to be creating perfect
shaped organizers?
Active Passive
Voice Voice
i. 5Ws Chart
Besides the slide presentation applications accessible in the suites listed in the previous page,
there are other presentation software that have very good features which can make the
presentation of lessons near to seeing real objects and subjects. Some of these are:
PowToon – this is a web-based tool that offers a wide array of media options, graphics,
cartoons, and animated images to create animated presentations that flow smoothly
and logically.
Slide Rocket – this software is very similar to other presentation software like PowerPoint
and Prezi. Its notable features are its templates which can be used to make presentations
more visually appealing.
Prezi – this software takes hold in some disciplines and circles. Presentations can be an
excellent starting point for tech-savvy instructors intending to reinvigorate their
classroom instruction or present material in an engaging format.
Using presentations enable language, mathematics, or science learners both in secondary and
elementary level to experience a world of real language, mathematics, and science environment
and opportunity in each of its different courses. Thus, it is encouraged to really make use of this tool
to aide us in teaching and learning. Presentations allow learners to:
present language, mathematics, and science reports with audio, visual images, and animations
develop and present group projects using real-world visual presentations
present charts, tables, graphics, and others that are useful in facilitating students’ understanding
of language, mathematics, and science concepts
show data stored in graphic organizers that cannot be fully presented by a printed material
develop digital stories or story books (for language learning), or digital
mathematics/science investigatory reports (for math and science)
show results of any survey, questionnaire, and other forms of language, mathematics, or
science assessment activities
articulate and crystalize their ideas using the special features of presentation software apps
experience language, mathematics, or science learning processes through integration of
contents in the presentations
enjoy developing projects, thus are highly involved
commit to the quality of their work, both content and form, because they don’t only present
what their classmates hear but what they also see
present information in condensed form and focusing on salient points because of the
limited area in slide presentations; hence, avoid digression and drifting and
communicate their ideas in an innovative manner and express themselves in ways they
feel comfortable with.
At this point, it’s more likely that you know more about how presentation software applications
work. Having the experience of using it in reports and other teaching engagements, you know the
basics of creating one and the technicalities of preparing the actual slides. However, as much as
learning the basics is important, knowing how to design presentations is of equal importance. This
speaks of not the tool itself, but the proper of use of it in the “actual presentation” which are often
disregarded in learning about presentation tools. Below are the guidelines by Brook and Gavin
(2015) in designing presentations:
3. Presentation Skills
In developing oral presentations, it is very important to consider
to spend time in the delivery of their outputs. Since English is the
medium of instruction for English, Mathematics, and Science teaching,
one must be able to demonstrate skill in the proper use of vocabulary
and grammar. A big emphasis is laid on how well a message is
communicated through the way we speak and present.
5. Performing Self-Reflections
This is the final stage of an oral presentation. Through this
activity, writing skills are further enhanced together with the ability of
the students to do self-reflection. Furthermore, it also helps the presenter
assess whether he/she presented well enough for the audience to learn.
“Slide presentations and the like are but tools in teaching and learning. No matter how beautifully it is created, it would only come alive and
effective through the presenter itself. Without good oral presentation skill, the tool that you so prepared would only be laid to waste.
Remember, software applications are “tools” and not a substitute for the one “teaching” using that tool. So improve well your presentation skills
and you’ll see, teaching and learning would be more engaging and effective.”
useful for data analysis which is very much needed in mathematics. But all these are but
secondary uses of spreadsheets. When you enter the actual field of teaching, spreadsheets are
primarily used for computing grades. You’d encounter templates for an ECR (electronic class
record) that are actually used in schools. One can even create their own. Thus, knowledge of
how spreadsheets work is also vital in the teaching and learning process. Below is a sample ECR
used in Senior High School.
All in all, these basic open-ended tools/productivity software applications are the primary
help that a teacher gets and can utilize in preparing for his/her instruction. Let us continue to
maximize the use of these tools especially now that we’re living in the 21st century era; more like
in the digital age.
Application:
For the learning plan you created from the previous module, begin planning on a handout
and slide presentation that will aide you in teaching your chosen topic. This part is optional and
thus no output is required to be submitted.
Note: It is expected that you chose topics according to your field of specialization. English
majors should pick a topic from the K to 12 Curriculum Guide for English Secondary Level. Same
goes with Math and Science Majors. For Elementary Education students, pick any topic/subject
from K to 12 Grades 1 to 6 Curriculum Guide.
Assessment:
1. From what you have planned in the application part, using any of the software
applications presented in this lesson, create a sample handout and slide presentation that will aid
you in teaching your chosen topic. Please be guided by the rubric and checklist that can be
accessed through this link

2. Write down at least 5 features of Word and 5 features of Presentation Applications that
you used in creating your handout and slide presentation. Describe how such feature was used in
your output. Fill in the table below. An example is given for your guidance. This is worth 50 points
(5 points per feature).
Enrichment Activity:
Search from the world wide web some new or emerging productivity tools (at least three)
that were not presented in the lesson. You may inquire about these as well from some colleagues
or other teachers who are knowledgeable of some of these. Prepare the results of your inquiry by
following the table below:

Lesson Objectives:
At the end of the lesson, the students should be able to:
1. Identify and explore other existing web-based publishing tools and digital tools that are
useful in teaching specific fields of specialization
2. Create a student sample project as digital authors
3. Evaluate and further improve previously made teaching tools
Getting Started:
A 50-year old man calls his 24-year old son, “I have received an important image on Facebook (originally Whatsapp)
which I want on my email,” he said. The son replied, “Well, that’s simple. You either:
[Link] your email on your phone and attach the image from your gallery, or
[Link] your photos to the drive (cloud) so you can access it anywhere with your email ID, or
[Link] Facebook on your computer, download the image and attach to your email.”
Leaving his father confused, the young man had his father forward him the image on Facebook and shared it with his
father via email.
After reading the story some of you may have probably thought either of these two things:
1. It’s so simple, how did the father not know what to do? Or
2. What on earth was the son talking about?
But most likely, you being so exposed now with how the “technology world” works, you
probably understood the options that the son gave to her father on ways to put the image he
received to an email. But the question still remains, with whom do you identify yourself more? The
father or the son? Why did you say so?
Discussion:
I would assume that most of you have identified yourselves as the son. Not only you
though, but also me and probably your soon to be students. They may even be more advanced
than you are at present. Like you, students nowadays are considered digital natives; a digital
savvy – someone who has the ability to use technologies on specific purposes and they are very
much exposed to
different online applications. As such, we are expected to familiarize ourselves with the use of these
online tools to maximize learning and teaching.
The internet has been a place where anyone can write and share anything to the world. In
the field of education, it has been not only a source of but also a tool to facilitate learning. A
simple video post of how to solve equations, how to use the microscope, or how to be good at
speaking in English, or how to get the attention of elementary pupils are only few samples of how
learning takes place digitally. With this, it is important to be guided by certain principles to help
you (as the teacher) and the students on how to be good digital authors. But before that, let us
explore some online tools and websites that you can use in teaching. 3

For Elementary Education students, you should take note of all these tools in general as language, mathematics, and sciences are
the basics that are being taught in the elementary level.
Of course, the use of the digital platform comes with responsibilities. As a facilitator, it is
your responsibility to ensure that your students (even you) will observe several guidelines in
publishing products/outputs. This was discussed to you previously in Technology for Teaching
and Learning 1. However, let’s recall the following:
A. Copyright Laws
Copyright Law protects works of authorship. Hence, it is very important for teachers and
students to learn more about copyright laws and copyright acts to ensure that there will be no
facilitating detection, investigation, and prosecution at both the domestic and international levels
and by providing arrangements for fast and reliable international cooperation.
In conclusion, it is not enough to just have knowledge of the tools and websites that were
presented in this lesson. We must also consider the responsibility that comes out of using such
tools. Furthermore, as we go along learning more about these tools, we must also learn how to
maximize its use to make teaching and learning more effective and meaningful. Since we are
now living in the digital age and given that almost all things are done online right now because
of the pandemic, we, teachers, ought to be well-oriented of these tools that would surely aid in
teaching and learning besides the basic slide presentation and handouts. Even as the pandemic
comes to an end, we ought to be pedagogically-content-technologically ready, equipped and
prepared.
Application:
Explore the different sites and tools that were presented in this lesson. Of all the
websites/tools, which do you think can be best incorporated in teaching and learning your chosen
topic in your learning plan? Choose your top three from the list (per field of specialization) (for
Elementary Ed students, choose the site depending on what subject you chose to work on with in
lesson 1)and explain why. Complete the table below.

Enrichment Activity:
As it is with common resources, learning resources can also be categorized as either
Human learning resources or Non-human learning resources. Human Learning Resources refer to
resources that human beings possess within them that can be used in facilitating learning.
Examples include knowledge, intelligence, creativity, motivation, energy, confidence, sight,
hearing, taste, smell, initiative, awareness, enthusiasm, speech, empathy, language,
communication and physical abilities. Non-human Learning Resources, on the other hand, refer to
learning resources outside human beings that are tangible or objects that exists externally of
people. It can be seen, experienced and used by people. Examples of these are computers,
calculators, laboratory equipment, books, and other instructional materials.
In light of this and of what you have learned so far in this module, create a comparative
table for human and non-human learning resources. Provide examples for each and how it is
used in the teaching and learning of your field of specialization. Make use of the table below:

Lesson Objectives:
At the end of this lesson, the students should be able to:
1. Identify various instructional materials (IMs) and technology tools in teaching language,
mathematics, and science learning both in elementary and secondary level
2. Explain the characteristics of good and appropriate IMs and technology tools in teaching
language, mathematics, and science learning by evaluating the already made materials
3. Create appropriate IMs using technology tools in learning language, mathematics, and
science.
Getting Started:
In the previous lesson, you were able to create a blog for a certain topic from your
field of specialization. With what you have made, do you think your blog met the desired
outcomes and expectations? Why? Furthermore, how do blogs support
language/mathematics/science learning both in secondary and elementary level?
Discussion:
We have been discussing about the different tools that we can use in teaching and
learning that are powered by technology. It’s true that technology has significantly helped us in
this endeavor in that it enhanced the process of learning. Let us list down some other ICT-based
instructional materials that enhance learning.
1. Instructional Charts
One of the most common types of IMs whether it may be in language, mathematics, or
science teaching and learning in both levels is a chart. It can be seen on printed materials and
yet their presentation can be enhance in 3D or 4D form with the aid of technology. Charts help
language, mathematics, and science learners present and understand data in a more
comprehensive form which also develops their critical thinking skills. The tools that can help you develop
charts are Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and iOs, Android, Windows Phone and iPad Chart Maker
Apps.
2. Posters
We are all very much aware of the use of posters in which Samples of free poster

students though but also us, teachers, that we can also use in
teaching.
3. Work Sheets and Forms
Worksheets and forms are not only completed on printed materials but can also be
accomplished through the web. Examples of electronic forms include Google Forms, Monkey
Survey Form, Paper Forms, Survey Planet, QuickTapSurvey, Type Form, Cognito Form, Ninja Forms.
4. Newsletters
A newsletter is a useful tool for language, mathematics and science learning. Preparing a
newsletter will develop and build the vocabulary and writing skills of students through drafting, revising,
editing, and publishing. Also, it develops the concept formation (in mathematics and science),
confidence in using technical writing skills, and use of credible references.
In creating a newsletter, it is important to remember the following:
Accuracy (facts are right; make use of the five Ws and H question)
Audience
Research (always check facts)
Images
Writing (what is the WOW factor of the story)

module, there are websites where a student can write their Diaro Journal App
journals and publish it. On the right are additional applications
that can be used to help students to help students write their
journals digitally.
9. Bulletin Boards
A teacher can also develop digital bulletin boards where he/she may post some
language/mathematics/science/elementary grades activities or information that are helpful for
the students’ acquisition of the competencies. Below are applications that can be used for this
purpose.
Wallwisher (now called Padlet) Spaaze
Corkboard Me Group Zap
Popplet Realtime Board
All these are materials that one can use either in language, mathematics, or science teaching and
learning. In addition though, below are some materials that are specifically made for each field.
Knowledge of what materials and how to use such materials in our instruction is not enough.
We, teachers, ought to prepare ICT-based IMs that are well-planned and designed to make it
effective. It is also highly recommended for us to maximize the use of teacher-made websites,

based activities. We must be knowledgeable and skilled in determining when and how technology
can enhance students’ learning.
The following are the expected characteristics of instructional materials/tools that are effective
in the classroom:
1. Enhances Instructional Effectiveness
2. Promotes Active Learning
3. Develops Critical Thinking
4. Accommodates Differentiated Instruction
5. Motivating
6. Multisensory
The concept of UDL or Universal Design for Learning is a very important concept in preparing
instructional tools in teaching language, mathematics, and sciences both in the elementary and
secondary levels. This concept stemmed originally from the UD principles, as well as from research
in neuroscience on how the brain learns (Rose & Meyer, 2002). According to Dalton et. al. (2019),
universal design for learning applies the concept of accessibility and inclusion beyond physical
environments to design teaching and learning opportunities in ways that are varied, accessible,
and engaging for all students including those with differing needs and/or disabilities. These
principles are very important for us to appreciate how we can integrate the concept in out ICT-
pedagogy integration.
The National Disability Authority cited the following 7 Principles of Universal Design which
were developed by Ronald Mace and group in the North Carolina State University. These principles
are very important as we design materials and other things relevant to our teaching and learning.
Learning Module on Technology for Teaching and Learning 2
30
Principle 1: Equitable Use Principle 2: Flexibility in use Principle 3: Simple and Intuitive
Principle 6: Low Physical Effort Principle 7: Size and Space for Approach and Use
The cited concepts and principles of Universal Design for Learning are very helpful to
rationalize why it is very important for every teacher to not just pick any instructional tool for the
sake of having one and for the teacher to integrate technologies without understanding some
learning principles. Teachers must be vigilant, innovative, and creative in choosing and/or in
developing instructional materials to ensure that the above cited UDL principles will be put to
practice. This is a very important endeavor to put language, mathematics, and science learning
both in the secondary and elementary level become a lifelong learning experience for students.

Lesson Objectives:
At the end of this lesson, you should be able to:
create a diagram showing similarities and differences
of digital and non-digital resources;
explain the characteristics of appropriate ICT resources; and
evaluate the relevance and appropriateness of ICT resources.
Getting Started:
In the space below, list at least ten (10) instructional materials or activities you remember
that your previous teachers or professors used in their classes.
After you finish the lesson, go back to your list and classify it if it is non-digital or digital resource.
Discussion:
When learners make full use of the displayed guidance, teaching becomes meaningful. An
important factor in attracting learners is when to use teaching materials for the strategies used
in teaching. If used properly, it can increase the interest of classroom activities.
These instructional materials can be presented in a variety of resources. One of the resources is
non- digital resources. Classrooms will always need blackboards or writing boards that can have
various shapes and formats. Black/whiteboards, flip charts, diorama, puppets, glass containers,
and alike will always find their meaning in any classroom.
Non-digital resources have a variety of functions in teaching, including:
1. Promoting meaningful communication and effective learning;
2. Ensuring better retention, which makes learning more durable;
3. By making inaccessible places, overcome limited classroom problems;
Non-digital resources are supplementary materials that can help teachers make their
presentation specific, effective, interesting, meaningful and aspiring. Non-digital resources are
very helpful to stimulate and promote learners' learning.
According to Wright (1976) cited by Cakir (2006), many media and multiple visual
presentation methods are useful for learners. As long as it is used at the right time and place, all
audiovisual materials will make a positive contribution to learning. In the teaching process, learners
will use their own eyes and ears; but their eyes are essential for learning.
that support learners in achieving the described learning goals. These materials consist of resources
in a variety of digital formats, including:
1. GRAPHICS IMAGES or PHOTOS
These resources are multimedia artworks that uses digital or high-definition cameras
2. AUDIO and VIDEO
This resource needs the recordings of sounds, filmed situations, interactive multimedia works
3. SIMULATIONS
This resource aids teacher's explanation and allows learners to test out their ideas and
experiment through multimedia and software applications.
4. ANIMATIONS
This can demonstrate processes which are difficult to describe or show in two dimensions. It
uses software applications to create projects/ideas.
5. PREPARED or PROGRAMMED LEARNING MODULES.
Software manuals or electronic textbook that can be download or upload by the use of
computers and gadgets. And many.
The proper use of digital learning resources can add considerable value to the quality of
your teaching and the learner experience. There are many resources available, some of which
can be accessed for free. This exercise invites you to explore the options for these resources and
reflect on their potential value in your topic.
Application:
I. Directions: Give a specific scenario where we can utilize the following non-digital resources

Lesson Objectives:
At the end of this lesson, you should be able to:
explain the characteristics of becoming information users (SSCC);
describe how SSCC was applied in preparing a learning plan; and
explain the importance of being a tech-savvy teacher.
Getting Started:
TIME TO REFLECT!
According to [Link], 80.7% of the total population of the Philippines is social
media users. Due to the current technology and situation, social media platforms have become
the most common medium of communication and source of information. However, it makes
misinformation and fake news more prevalent.
As a future teacher, what possible tips can you share with your students so that they would
not become a victim of misinformation especially when researching and sharing online?
Discussion:
SSCC is an acronym used to design learning opportunities to help learners become information users.
SEARCH
- Learners can access specific information and give a
broad overview of the topic.
SORT
- Learners know how to classify information in order to
make connections and determine what is relevant or
irrelevant information for their purpose.
CREATE
- Learners use the information to create clear products to
organize and demonstrate their learning
COMMUNICATE
- Learners share and help others understand the
connection and their conclusion drawn during the entire
process of
using the information. Learners can reflect on the knowledge they have learned through the
SSCC process.

Components of SSCC
These has many components and different types of technologies (tools) that can help
teachers create courses for learners that include SSCC learning and teaching models, such as
the Internet or can be as specific as an Excel spreadsheet developed by the following people:
Internet Research
Books, Encyclopedias, Library Research
Articles, Stories, Reports, Artwork, Writing, Music, Videos
Lectures, Presentations
Publication/Sharing of Learner Works
Graphic Organizer – can be created using MSWord application or can be used such as
Inspiration (software) make them intricate and complex.
The Importance of Educational Practice
As our society continues to rely more and more on information, as educators, we must
ensure that our learners become eager to seek information and discover throughout their lives as a
good user. For this, they must be able to search for information, classify related information from
irrelevant information, use the information found to create products and communicate the
connections found in the information (SSCC).
During the search and sort process, learners should remember the "halo effect". This effect
can help learners verify the validity of information and judge the source of the information. Use the
SSCC guidelines to develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills have the opportunity to
apply what they have learned through create and communicate to use higher thinking skills. When
teachers use this model in lesson plans, make sure that learners become users of information once it
is implemented. Teachers and students can communicate and help with each other.
Application:
Write your own reflections on the following: (10 pts each)
1. Are you a “tech-savvy”? Explain why.
4. In your current situation, are you using computer, smart phone, or gadgets on doing your
learning materials? If not, what are your alternative tools on doing those learning materials?

It is essential to develop collaborative skills among learners to make them inclusive and
productive in the classroom and society. If learners are assigned tasks to promote cooperation
with their peers, they will learn to value the contributions and ideas of their peers. In addition, they will
learn to adapt to the work and learning styles of their peers, which will ultimately help them
prepare for the workplace, which will require the collaboration of workers and stakeholders with
different personalities, skills and knowledge.
Lesson Objectives:
At the end of this lesson, you should be able to:
identify the relevance of collaboration in real-life situations;
participate in the exploration of ICT tools for collaboration; and
use innovative technological tools for collaboration in the development of learning plans.
Getting Started:
What do you think is the most important application installed in your phone or desktop (if
applicable)? Why? And how does it help you during these trying times?
Discussion:
There are a lot of collaboration tools that were proven to be very useful in the field of
education. These collaboration tools have been cited as supportive tools that facilitate the
meeting of different minds even if they are geographically dispersed. This section presents various
collaboration tools which were shared by the following researches.
2. Skype
This application allows for a more free-flowing conversation and requires less
preparation for the facilitators. CFG initially used the audio-conferencing
capabilities of Skype but they found the ability to hear each other a nice
change from the work associated with typing in text chat.
4. Google+ Hangouts
Google+ Hangouts allows for video of all of the participants the ability to
share documents via links in the chat window or sharing directly through Google
Docs. with video, it is very easy to tell when someone had a question or comment.
This allows the discussion to flow freer and allowed the facilitator to play less of a
“traffic cop” role. Video also aided turn-taking. Google+ Hangouts gives participants
the ability to easily share agendas and collaborate on documents via GoogleDocs.
5. [Link]
The latest technology tried by CFG is [Link]. [Link] allows for high
definition, multi-point video and audio. It also has a chat feature and screen
sharing capabilities. It offers the ability to share a screen and collaboratively
annotate it.
6. Kahoot!
KAHOOT! is a web-based platform that allows users to easily create and
play interactive, multiple-choice-style games. Through the use of KAHOOT!
games, the learners and teachers were able to play their way into substantive
and learner- centered discussions.
inputs can be aided by technological tools. In a research that was conducted by Staley and
McCallum (2010), they were able to share some online tools that have emerged to be useful in
the conduct of collaborative activities with medical practitioners.
1. Epernicus ([Link]
Epernicus is a professional networking and expertise locator for current and former
research scientists. User accounts are free but require registration upon which answers questions

throughout the entire research process. Available from ProQuest, the suite is made up of some
very familiar products from the former Community of Science, including COS Expertise and COS
Funding Opportunities, as well as a few new additions currently available on the CSA Illumina
Platform.
3. Research Crossroads ([Link]
This is designed to provide transparent access to publicly funded research. Research
Crossroads aggregate funding, publication, clinical trial, and grant data from government and
private research agencies. Profiles are based on publicly available data, but researchers may also
login to update their own information – with about 12,000 profiles being updated this way to date.
Researchers can use the service to maintain a public profile and search for other researcher or
organizational profiles, as well as search for funding awards, opportunities, and clinical trials.
4. SciVee ([Link]
SciVee is a multimedia community that provides social networking, collaboration and
communication applications for publishers, societies and researchers-across K-12 to professional levels.
The core of SciVee’s services is a platform on which community members share videos describing
their work or publicizing aricles, posters, or presentations.
5. Connotea ([Link] CiteULike ([Link] and
2Collab ([Link]
Several of the top social bookmarking tools designed to handle reference management are
produced by major publishing groups, including Connotea, a product of the Nature Publishing
Group, CiteULike from Springer, and 2Collab form Elsevier. Overall, these tools also share a few
common design features, including:
a. One-click browser button that allows users to instantly add citations to hosted
bookmark libraries;
b. Tagging with keywords to assist in organizing and searching across other user libraries;
c. User profiles that include bibliographies of published material, areas of expertise,
and ongoing research activities; and

Functions and Features of Communities of Learning (COLs)
No man is an island. This maybe is a cliché, but it will always remain to be true and useful for
the attainment of any work goals. With the demands of the 21st Century classrooms and
workplaces, the need to have a community to help you achieve your teaching and learning goals
is of prime importance. After all, “it takes a village of educate a child” is undoubtedly true.
This need is directed to the development of Communities of Learning or COLs. A Community
of Learning is a group of education and training providers working together to help learners achieve
their full potential. Each Community of Learning sets shared goals or achievement challenges based
on the
particular needs of its children and youths. The Community of Learning works with learners,
their parents, and communities to achieve those challenges. By collaborating and sharing
expertise, learners’ learning pathways are supported and their transition through the education
system improves as proven by research. This approach also provides more opportunities for
parents, families and communities to be involved with their children and young people’s
learning.
IGI Global (2020) cited the following descriptions and concepts of COLs taken from
various sources:
1. The collection of participants in a course who work
cooperatively and collaboratively in solving tasks that lead to
consensus and collective understanding of ideas.
2. A community of learners “can be defined as a
group of people who share values and beliefs and who
actively engage in learning from one another-learners from
teachers, teachers from learners, and learners from learners.
They thus create a learning-centered environment in which
learners and educators are actively and intentionally
constructing knowledge
together. Learning communities are connected, cooperative, and supportive. Peers are
interdependent in that they have joint responsibility for learning and share resources and points of
view, while sustaining a mutually respectful and cohesive environment”
3. Defined as a group of people who share values and beliefs and who are actively
engaged in learning from one another.
4. A group of people who: 1) share a joint enterprise that is
understood and continually negotiated by its members, 2) have
a mutual engagement that binds members together into a
social entity, and 3) have created a shared repertoire of
communal responses (ways of thinking, being, and doing)
that members have developed over time.
5. Group of teachers who are actively engaged in collectively
constructing meaning. In our research, the broad community
of learners was the group of teachers taking the practicum
course together.
6. An instructional model based on all members of a group actively contributing to
the structure and direction of shared endeavors.
