Principles of Learning in Teaching
My Target
While I observe three different classes, I will be able to identify applications of
the principles of learning in the teaching-learning process.
My Tools
As I observe a class, I will use the Observation Sheet for a more focused
observation.

My Analysis
1. What is the impact of the Resource Teacher’s observance of these
principles on the teaching-learning process and on the learners?
The impact of the resource teacher's observance of the teaching-learning process principles is that
learners can participate in online class and module activities despite a lack of gadgets or a lack of stable
signal for some of the learners. Even when things are difficult, learners can improve their cognitive,
affective, and psychomotor capabilities. It combines all of this principle of teaching it will help students
learn more efficiently.
The most applied was the “Learning is a consequence of experience”, amidst of the
pandemic they are on modular learning and their online class was limited and teachers only
give instructions what they do on their activities on the modules and give supplementary
like tutorial video on YouTube and the learners understand/study it individually.
The learning principle not applied at all was the “Learning is a cooperative and
collaborative process”, due to pandemic there is no face-to-face class, and students are not
allowed to meet with their classmates and online collaboration is impossible because not all
students have their gadget.
4. Do you agree with these principles of learning? Or have you discovered that
they are not always correct?
I agree with all of the learning principles because, based on my observations, the
concepts that the teacher uses in her teaching are effective, and I can also see that the students
are learning, as seen by their greater participation in the online class or modular learning. I can
see that they are engaged and interested in their lesson, and I believe that this is because of the
teacher's method and technique in utilizing many kinds of learning principles
My Reflections
My reflections on my observations of my Resource Teacher’s observance of
these principles. Did my Resource Teacher’s adhere to these principles?
According to what I've observed, the Resource teacher follows the different learning principles.
Even though some principles are not clearly presented in the manner she teaches, I can see that her
teaching is effective because of the learning principle she applied together with the techniques and
approaches she employed. She always asks her students questions and allows them to respond based on
their existing knowledge; she also allows them to complete their tasks independently and teaches them
intellectually, emotionally, and to become self-sufficient. Observing this in practice, I can confidently
state that the Resource teacher has demonstrated what a true modern teacher is, and that the students are
learning effectively and productively in their online class and modular activities
I've learned that putting all of these learning principles into practice is critical to make a class or
teaching–learning process effective and fruitful. I found that learners learn best when they visually
observed, when they answer questions based on their own experiences, and when they are taught not only
intellectually but also emotionally. All of these ideas are quite beneficial in helping learners enhance and
expand their learning.

EPISODE 2- LESSON OBJECTIVES AS MY GUIDING STAR
My Target
In this Episode, I must be able to:
deduce the lesson objective/s after observing my Resource Teachers teach.
see how the guiding principles in the formulation of lesson objectives are
applied.
realize the importance of a clearly defined lesson objective.

3. Lesson objectives must be in the 2 3. The teacher not only explains or states the
or 3 domains – cognitive, skill and lesson's definition or meaning, but she also
affective or cognitive and affective or encourages students to express what comes to
skill and affective. their mind when they see the picture or words
that the teacher shows.
2. After observing your Resource Teacher teach, write down what you think was/
were her lesson objective.
There is a similarity between the number 3 or lesson objectives and the teacher's lesson. The
lesson objectives are truly a backbone for the learners' learning growth. Even if the teacher does not
follow the lesson objectives, students can still learn if the teacher teaches topics that are connected to the
lesson objectives.
2. Why did you find it easy/difficult to write down the Resource Teacher’s lesson
objective for the day? Did she mention it at the beginning of her/his lesson?
Because her teaching technique appears traditional, I find it easy to predict the lesson objective.
When the students see or read the pictures/words, she asks them what comes to mind or what they
understand. Although the teacher did not state the lesson objectives at the start of class, the way she
handled the topic made it clear what they were.
3. Did you find the lesson objective SMART? Why or why not?
Her learning objectives were SMART, to be sure. It can be quantified and achieved in such a way
that the learner understands the meaning of Biotechnology and its relevance, as well as providing an
observable video lab experiment.
Any lessons learned or insights gained from your observation focused on lesson objectives?
Write them down here. Are lesson objectives truly the guiding star in the development of a
lesson? Or are lesson objectives sometimes forgotten as the lesson develops?
I learned that lesson objectives must be in two or three domains of knowledge, and that
they should be correlated to the student's experiences and knowledge so that they can relate to
them easily. I also learned that we can share the lesson objectives with the students, that they
must be encountered at the end of the lesson in order to advance on to the next topic, and that the
teacher must begin each lesson with a specifically stated lesson objective. Finally, lesson
objectives serve as a guide for us to determine or evaluate whether or not our teaching is
beneficial.

MEANINGFUL LEARNING
My Target
In this Episode, I must be able to:
observe the teaching of a dominantly cognitive or skill or affective lesson
(cognitive lesson-Sibika; Skill-Math; affective-Values Education).
trace the development of a cognitive, skill and affective lesson.
OBSERVATION SHEET

As I observe a class, I will use the Observation Sheet for a more focused
observation.
During the discussion, the teacher discussed about the definition of biotechnology, a technology
that involves the use of living organisms. These is the fact mentioned.
3. Did the lesson end with facts? Or did facts lead to understanding of
concepts? Prove your answer.
When the teacher presented relevant examples to elaborate the concept during the discussion, she
handled the topic in depth. It's when she applies the topic to real-life situations or shows a video lab
experiment. Students will grasp the concept better since they have seen what was described in the
concept.
Students are usually asked to clarify topics and ask questions after the discussion. They are often
asked to offer their thoughts on the topic and what they have learned. During on my observation, the
teacher inquired as to which part of the module the students are having difficulty with. She encourages
students to address questions so that they might be answered.
The skill lesson is all about understanding the differences between Traditional Biotechnology and
Modern Biotechnology and also the importance of Biotechnology in human life. These lessons
emphasize comprehension, observation, and critical thinking. These abilities were classified as thinking
abilities.
As the discussion progressed, responses from diverse perspectives were neatly categorized to a
more particular response. The topic became clearer as a result of the discussion. At this point,
Convergent thinking is demonstrated.
4. If there was problem solving in the lesson, were the pupils taught to solve the
problem using algorithm or heuristic strategy?
5. What are proof that the students were encouraged to do critical thinking?
Based on my observation, critical thinking is applied. Although the teacher does not tell the
students to do it, the topic necessitates critical thinking. They must distinguish between Traditional and
Modern Biotechnology. And Observing is also important when it comes to video lab experiment.
C. Values/Affective Lessons
1. What was the value lesson about?
The value lesson focuses on perseverance and hard work. It was not explicitly taught, but was
conveyed throughout the class. These two values are critical for good learning, particularly in the
sciences.
2. Was the value taught alone or was it integrated with a cognitive or skill
lesson?
Science is a broad tsubject that can be difficult to convey using values. The subject is in a state of
cognitive. As far as I can tell, the value lesson was combined with the cognitive lesson.
The value lesson was generated by exposing the student to a real-life scenario or experiment in
Science.
My Analysis
My Resource Teacher made the cognitive content meaningful and exciting by extending concepts
with examples, facts from real-life situations, and as clear a discussion as feasible.
The skill lesson had already been part of Science. My Resource Teacher presented skill content in
a meaningful and exciting way by giving real-life problems, problem solving, and showing students how
to solve them in a step-by-step procedure.
Value lessons and cognitive lessons, in my opinion, go hand in hand. Teaching values is similar to
teaching students how to apply what they've learned in the classroom to real-world situations, which is
cognitive. Values can't be taught without facts, because facts are the foundation for the values that
learners will form.
Yes, I completely agree. When cognitive and skill lessons are valued and applied to the learners'
everyday lives, we might call it value education.
My Reflections
1. Someone once said: “There are dull teachers, dull textbooks, dull films but no
dull subjects”. Do you agree? Write down your reflections here!
The dullness of anything, in my opinion, is determined by our perspective. Some things may
interest you, but they do not interest me, and vice versa. The subjects could be interesting or not.
Nevertheless, it really is dull when something doesn't help to the development of the learners.
2. How should you organize subject matter (be it cognitive skill or value
lesson) so that your teaching will always be fresh and interesting?
A well-organized subject matter is expected to keep teaching fresh and interesting at all times. To me, the
best way to do this is to combine the three domains because it involves the mind, heart, and hands in
learning.
My Portfolio
Research on/or come up with a lesson plan (cognitive or skill) that integrates a
value or values. Paste it here! (You may want to refer to “Integrating Values with
Subject Matter”, in Principles of Teaching 2, 2006 by Corpuz B., G. Salandanan
and D. Rigor, pp. 91-92.) An outline of the lesson development will do.

My Analysis
Are these principles in accordance with brain-based teaching and
learning?
Not all of the principles are appropriate for brain-based learning. These ideas are also in line with
the emotional development of students as they learn. These principles, such as brain-based teaching and
emotional teaching, can be helpful for students since their cognitive and affective capacities are related.
They will most likely learn a variety of things, including the advantages and disadvantages of scenarios
they have experienced, and they will learn some essential aspects that will help them learn and possess
the expertise to carry situations and apply what they have learned to make life decisions as they progress
through their lives.
My Reflections
What is the best method of teaching? Is there such a thing?
No, I don't believe there is a best method of teaching since the best method depends on the group
of students you're teaching. When deciding which approach to utilize, the teacher must take into account
the students' unique differences as well as their learning capacities. A method that should be employed
must be successful for all students and capable of improving their listening abilities and class
performance.

by the Resource Teacher.

7. Project method The day I observe , the teacher never used such
method, but she assigned her student a
homework.
The Deductive and Direct methods are less engaging in the case of students are really just waiting
for information to be given to them. Discovery and Problem-Solving, on the other hand, are more
engaging since they focus on the student's experiences. As a result, the teacher's knowledge is required to
supplement the demands of the students.
When a lesson or discussion necessitates the teacher's proper and adequate expertise, especially when
it involves a broad set of facts, the direct method should be employed. It may also be utilized to make the
most of your time and prevent wasting it.
When the teacher asks everyone a question that has anything to do with what the teacher wants the
students to know, the indirect method is used. It's employed when a teacher wants his or her students to
be allowed to respond to a question on their own initiative.
It is the Project Method, in my opinion, since it allows students to be grouped, collaborate, and share
their thoughts to their group mates.
My Reflections
If I decide on my teaching approach/method, I will considered Discovery Method (Continue
the sentences. Begin writing NOW!)
Now we can’t able to conduct a face-face class this method is so applicable it will encourages
students to be active participants in their own learning. They learn how to be inquisitive and how to
answer their own inquiries. When they discover things, they are ecstatic. They take on the role of
"leadership" and love sharing their joy with the others.
My Portfolio
1. Do serious research and complete this Table on Methods. The first is done for
you.
My Target
In this Episode, I must be able to trace how many Resource Teacher develops her/his
lesson.

focused observation.

1. Describe how the teacher began his/her lesson. Why do you think
did she/he do that?
The teacher started her lecture by giving motivation. She will show the students a four-picture
set and ask them to guess what the answer is. This was done by the teacher in order to capture
her students' attention and stimulate their interest in learning.
2. What activity/es did the Resource Teacher ask the learners to do
after she/he introduced the lesson? Why do you think she/he did such?
She gives a recitation to the students after she introduces the lesson and asks them what
their insight or comprehension of the topic is.
3. How did she end her/his lesson? Why do you think she/he did that?
The teacher ended the class by asking some students what they had learned and if they
completely properly understood the topic. I believe she does this so that if a student doesn't
understand something, she may repeat it and offer a summary of the topic.
Yes, there is a learning assessment in the teaching process that I had observed. It's a type
of recitation, and recitation was a big part of their online class. She gave the students a problem
to answer, which was to find the value of wavelength.
My Analysis
I will answer the following questions:
The lesson must start with the teacher's lesson objectives for that day, so that the teacher
may be certain that what the teacher wants to accomplish that day will be completed, and, of
course, for the benefit of the students learning. A class, on the other hand, should close with
questions from the students to explain what they are thinking and, more importantly, for a deeper
and broader understanding of the lesson.
2. Did you observe any part of the lesson development to have been out of
place? Explain your answer.
No, the teacher was on track and did not explore any topics that were off the road. It's because the
discussion is well-structured, and the teacher is skilled at ensuring that the students comprehend the topic.
In addition, the teacher benefited from the lesson plan since it served as a guide for the discussion.
My Reflections
“Tell them what you want to tell them; tell them what you told them.”
Relate this statement to lesson development.
The statement, in my opinion, refers to the entire lesson creation process. It depicts the start and
finish of the lecture. The “ Tell them what you want to tell them” It is at the start of the class when
motivation is given and the learners are informed of the day's lesson objective. It is used to introduce the
lesson or topic. The order line “tell them” It's when the teacher discusses the subject with the class. It's
where students compare and abstract knowledge in order to learn what they need to know and, of course,
to achieve the day's goal. The last line “tell them what you told them” is expanding the range of the topic
It's a simplified and generalized version of what you've already discussed. It is the provision of a
summary of the topic under discussion.
My Portfolio
1. Re-construct your Resource Teacher’s lesson plan. Your lesson plan must
have the parts of a lesson plan. A lesson plan outline may do, provided all the
parts of a lesson are covered.
