Description
FS 6: On Becoming A Teacher Field Study 6 “On Becoming A Teacher” is one of the Experiential Learning Courses of the prospective teacher. It tells the journey of how to become a teacher as exemplified in the Teacher Education and Development Map in the pre-service education. Like any point in the map, pre-service education is connected to the core which is the National Competency-Based Teacher Standards (NCBTS). One of the professional education subjects for Teacher Education as mandated by CMO 30, s. 2004 is The Teaching Profession. It is on this subject, that Field Study 6 is anchored. Thus, all the experiential activities for this Field Study are related to the in-depth understanding, testing of learned theories and concepts through immersion and observation in real life situations that relate to the teaching profession for personal reflection, formation of concepts and future application. Kolb’s Experiential Learning Cycle, shown below guides the flow of the processes that every student should undergo. The model presents the four elements which are: concrete experiences, observation and reflection, formation of abstract concepts and testing in new situations. 1. Concrete experiences includes everything that the prospective teacher is tasked to do in the school setting and the learning environment, where engagement in real and authentic situation is required. The underlying principle is based on Dewey’s philosophy of learning by doing. The series of experiences will motivate , encourage and enable students to go on to have more valuable experiences. 2. Observation and reflection follow concrete experiences. For situations and episodes which cannot be concretely experienced, one can make direct observations. The observations become environmental experiences and first hand encounters through the use of different senses. Reflections on both concrete experiences and observations should always follow. This would clarify understanding, deepen values and appreciation. 3. Forming concepts follows observation and reflections. This is the validation of prior understanding gained from the previous courses taken as well as formation of new ones. This stage can best be done through clearing house or journal writing. 4. Testing in new situation. This stage may not happen during the current Field Study subject, but in latter course like Practicum or Student Teaching where transfer of learning will find its place very clearly.

As we continue our journey to become a professional teacher, let us remember the stages or elements we have to go through: CONCRETE EXPERIENCE, OBSERVATION, REFLECTION, FORMING/ AFFIRMING CONCEPTS and in the further TESTING IN A NEW SITUATION.

This activity will enable you to ask yourself about the different future practices or actions that you will do in teaching. You may not have done it yet, but if you become a teacher what do would be your response to each item? Your answers will identify what your philosophy of education is all about. Answer each item on the Survey Questionnaire very honestly. There is no right nor wrong answer for each item. After you have answered each item, record your answers and look at the interpretation at the back of this work text. After you have answered the questionnaire yourself, you are to ask two teachers to do the same activity. WHAT IS YOUR PHILOSOPHY OF EDUCATION?

Use the following numbers to express your response: 4 Agree strongly 3 Agree

The students should be permitted to determine their own curriculum. ________5. Subject matter is taught effectively when it is broken down into small parts. ________6.

Schools, above all, should develop students’ abilities to think deeply, analytically and creatively; than develop their social skills or provide them with a useful body of knowledge about the ever- changing world. ________8. Teaching should prepare students for analyzing and solving the types of problems they will face outside the classroom. ________9. Reality is determined by each individual’s perceptions. There is no objective and universal reality. ________10.People are shaped much more by their environment than by their genetic dispositions or the exercise of their free will. ________11. Students should not be promoted from one grade to the next until they have read and mastered certain key material. ________12. An effective education is not aimed at the immediate needs of the student or the society. ________13. The curriculum of the school should be built around the personal experiences

Programmed learning is an effective method of teaching information. ________16. Academic rigor is an essential component of education. ________17.

Education should focus on the discussion of timeless questions such as “What is beauty?” or “What is truth?” ________23. Since students learn effectively through social interaction, schools should plan for substantial social interaction in their curricula. ________24. The purpose of school is to help students understand themselves and find the meaning of their existence. ________25. Frequent objective testing is the best way to determine what students know. ________26. Countries must become more competitive economically with other countries hence, schools must bolster their academic requirements to facilitate such competition. ________27. Students must be taught to appreciate learning primarily for its own sake, because it will help them in their careers. ________28. Schools must place their own emphasis on teaching about the concerns of minorities and women. ________29. Each person has free will to develop as he or she sees fit. ________30. Reward students well for learning and they will remember and be able to apply what they learned even if do not understand why the information is worth knowing ________31. Philippine schools should attempt to instill traditional Filipino values in students. ________32. Teacher-gained discovery of profound truths is a key method of teaching students. ________33. Students should be active participants in the learning process. ________34. There are no external standards of beauty. Beauty is what an individual decides it. ________35. We can place a lot of faith in our schools and teachers to determine which student behaviors are acceptable and which are not. ________36. Schools must provide students with a firm grasp of basic facts regarding the books people and events that have shaped the Filipino heritage. ________37. Philosophy is ultimately at least as practical a subject to study as is computer science. ________38. Teachers must stress for students the relevance of what they are learning for their lives outside, as well as inside the classroom. ________39. It is more important for students to develop a positive self-concept than to learn Specific concept. ________40. Learning is more effective when students are given frequent tests to determine what they have learned. NOTE: Photocopy two copies of this instrument.

Since we cannot travel physically to other countries, we can reach these places through the use of modern technology like surfing the world wide web, interviews and use of other sources of information. Choose two countries other than the Philippines. Search for the personal and professional competencies required of the teachers ih that particular country. You may also interview a Filipino teacher who has taught in these countries.
