Reflection Papers


Unit 1: Using ICT in Developing 21st Century Skills/ICT in the 21st Century Skills

            Unit I incorporates K-qw English Framework, 21st Century Communication Skills, Learning activities to develop macro skills, Promoting Digital Citizenship and Revisiting of language learning Plans. As future educator it is necessary to integrate 21st century skills specially the use of ICT. 21st century skills include Critical thinking, Creativity, Collaboration and Communication. These 4C's when integrated to the lesson, with the aid of technology students will be able to process the information and learning in a short span of time.To further discuss a lesson technology become an effective tool so that the learners can easily understand the lesson.

              Aside from that effective teachers have different strategies in delivering their lessons so that the students will have step by step procedures in processing the information. Learning processes includes Spiral progression, Interaction, Integration and Construction. I think spiral progression is the best learning process because it starts with the basic to the complex lesson. As a student I personally can learn if the lessons are easy at first then it becomes difficult as the discussion continues. That is because there's enough time given to the students to understand first the foundation of the lesson. Unit I also incorporates different learning activities to develop the macro skills (Reading, Writing, Speaking and Listening) of the learner. It is given that for better development of these macro skills, ICT is very useful. The integration of 21st century skills and ICT in developing macro skills builds the best learners of the generation.

               When entering the class make sure that you are prepared for the lesson  and capable of putting some knowledge to them. Effective teachers are those who can share their knowledge to their students once the students leave the four corners of the classroom.




UNIT II: BASIC PLAN FOR A LEARNING PLAN IN ENGLISH/FILIPINO


             Learning plan is different from Lesson plan. Problem-based approach is different from Project-Based approach. These four are different with one another but all of these are the foundation of the plans in teaching. It maybe long-term or short-term such as the lesson plan that is only the plan for a day and the learning plan which is a life-long learning strategy. Unit II explains the difference among learning and lesson plan.

               Problem-based approach helps the students to use their critical thinking skills to think and solve for a particular problem. Problem-based is the best example for a spiral progression learning process because it provides specific steps and later on the output is more complex such as research. Project-based approach is a learner-centered approach wherein the teacher will only be the facilitator and the scaffolding of the learning process, it seeks for a product. Aside from the learning approaches the types of lesson plan had been tackled also. 



UNIT III:PRODUCTIVITY SOFTWARE APPLICATIONS/ TOOLS FOR TEACHING AND LEARNING


An effective teacher uses appropriate teaching strategies so that their students can easily understand what is being taught to them. The productivity software are very effective in delivering the lesson because the use of technology is present and at the same time the students can enjoy it while they are studying. The productivity soft wares creates or builds productive and creative students.

            In today’s generation of modern technologies learning the trend is not that hard, therefore the soft wares are now accessible and the teachers can easily use it. In my own point of view the productivity soft wares are beneficial for both the teacher and students they can learn both if they apply it to real world situations.
