A REFLECTIVE PAPER As everybody says that life of a teacher is never that easy, he should be a role model and a good example to everyone. As an individual engaged to this kind of profession, he must first possess all the traits that will make him to be a stronger and a better person. Most especially on dealing with students of different personalities. All children misbehave at some time; it is part of finding out what appropriate behavior is and where the limits are. Children may throw tantrums, test the rules, start fights, refuse to cooperate with the teacher’s house rules and routines, use bad language—the list goes on. As the teacher teachesstudents appropriate behavior, what the expected rules and boundaries are all about, it's important to remember the goals of discipline. Discipline means helping a child develop self-control and a sense of limits, experience the consequences of his/her behavior, and learn from his/her mistakes. Discipline does not mean punishment or conflict between the teacher and students. All of them need the security of knowing the rules and boundaries of behavior; without them they feel at a loss, and later on they become abusive. Positive reinforcement is the best technique for encouraging wanted behavior. Most students crave attention and acceptance from the teacher and will work to get it. Rewards are not bribes; they are ways to show to student that she is doing a good job.But in the end, the teacher must be clear, firm and specific about what you mean, be respectful. Don't resort to name-calling or yelling. And the consequence should follow the behavior immediately. The consequence should be fair in relation to the behavior.

SAMPLES OF STUDENTS’ FEEDBACK Run-through teaching is the most exciting part in the education curriculum yet the most crucial because student-teachers play a vital role like professional teachers do. At first, you don’t know how to deal with the new crowd of people, you have to learn first how to be an upright friend to them, a mentor, a brother, then later on as teacher. It would be a prodigious honor if you treat your students like your family, because they can open up to you. Students’ feedback could be either in the form of words or being shown emotionally. From my experiences in my in-campus practice teaching, I required my students to write what they feel about me, what are the traits that they like in me and the things that made them hate me. The purpose of

that is to secretly evaluate my teaching performances as well as my relationship with the students. I know deep inside me that I am a stringent teacher and yes I really am, but I don’t have any idea how I made my students to respect me as how they treat their professional teachers, shown me love and cares. And I am so grateful with the feed-backs that were expressed through letters, though there were suggestions but I know that those are constructive ones. I also know that it is not only me who will treasure the rapports that we built but as well as they will also keep every good moment that we had until the end of time.

SAMPLES OF LEARNERS’ WORK In the teaching-learning process, learners’ work plays the most important role. This is on way of assessing the students’ performance for that certain subject matter. Either they have absorbed the information from the deliberations or need further discussion among the teacher and the learners,evaluate the students’ standing; the strengths and weaknesses in that certain topic. Teacher can also determine how the students are responsive to the task assigned to them. Somehow, some factors are to be considered in terms of assessing the teacher and students’ performance. In my case, I often give an evaluation to my students’ just right after the discussion as part of my lesson plan to determine if they have absorbed the information or if they’ve jotted down some important information in their lecture notes. But, as part of the traditional ways of teaching, teachers give an evaluation either projects,activities, assignments, chapter test, long

quiz, or unit test aside from the periodical examination in every quarter of the school year. More prominently, the learners’ work is one way of determining if both the teacher and students were able to attain the objectives of the topic intended for that day. Recalling back my erudition in my education subjects way back from my first year to third year, I’ve learned that learners’ work serves as the echo of the teacher’s performance, since it gives a view as to how the teacher executed his/her teaching strategies,methods, techniques, and approaches during the process. It also gives a replication to the teacher if he/she is an effective one.

Practice Teaching Manual (ZSCMST- College of Education and Liberal Arts) PRACTICE- TEACHING MANUAL PHILOSOPHY The designing of practice teaching manual of ZSCMST-College of Education is based on the belief that the practice teaching experience is a critical part of a practice teacher in the college of education. It is believed that these practice teachers have demonstrated competence in the use of basic teaching strategies and have the potential to function as professionals. Practice teaching provides prospective teachers with the opportunity to implement all they have learned throughout their teacher education program. These practice teachers are supported by their College Dean, Program Advisers and their classroom Cooperating Teachers. They are greatly influenced by the practices and personality of these people to whom they have been assigned. Therefore, it is important that they will be placed with competent cooperating teachers. The competent cooperating teachers assess the needs and interest of practice teachers, prepares a conducive learning environment, and teaches such that students are engaged in learning activities and stimulate their thinking skill. These are skills that the cooperating teachers help the student teachers to acquire. This practice teaching manual outlines the process by which that mentoring can take place. GOALS OF STUDENT TEACHING 1. To provide opportunities for the Practice Teacher to observe the application of instructional and management techniques as modeled by a cooperating teacher. 2. To assist the Practice Teacher in making the transition from the role of student to that of a professional educator by assuming all of the daily responsibilities of a classroom teacher. 3. To assist the Practice Teacher in understanding the organizational structure and the respective roles of the administrative, faculty, and staff personnel of secondary school. 4.

Be sure to commend the Practice Teacher for all personal strengths. Provide necessary feedback to the Practice Teacher and serve as a resource person as well. React honestly, yet keep criticism constructive and positive; provide specific, direct information about how the practice teacher can improve his/her performance. A. Cooperating Teachers should hold formal conferences weekly at a regularly scheduled time and also the College Dean should provide formal feedback after an observation. The observation guide form can be used as an objective guide to provide specific feedback about what you are or are not seeing the practice teacher do. The observation form is tied to the final expectations of what the practice teacher is expected to know and be able to do at the conclusion of practice teaching. (Triad conference may be applied by the practice teacher, cooperating teacher and the dean or program advisers). B. Build on the Practice Teacher’s strengths. C. Engage the Practice Teacher in self-evaluation and goal setting and encourage the Practice Teacher to reflect on his/her performance and how they can improve that performance – to reflect on the teaching/learning process and generate solutions for themselves (if they are unable to accurately assess what is occurring in the classroom do not hesitate to offer suggestions, techniques, models that they should try). D. Complete the evaluation form and review it with the Practice Teacher. E. At the end of the Practice Teaching, the Cooperating Teacher, the Program Advisers and the College Dean should complete a final evaluation form. The Cooperating Teacher may review it with the Practice Teacher if you wish or keep it confidential and hand it to College Dean or Program advisers. The Program adviser should review his/her own evaluation with the Practice Teacher, keeping confidential the Cooperating Teacher’s final evaluation if he/she so desires. The Practice Teacher needs to: 1. Realize the importance of the coaching that the Cooperating Teacher is giving you, to assist you in your professional growth. 2. Appreciate constructive criticism, don’t be defensive.

3. Don’t take feedback personally. 4. Seek suggestions for improvement and use them to change your teaching practice. 5. Be kind and gracious. 6. Keep the meetings positive. 7. If you are unable to do this for any reason, consult your College Dean or Program Adviser immediately. PRACTICE TEACHING GRADE The following rubric will be used to determine the Practice Teacher’s final grade for the practice teaching experience. 1.0-1.9 Only those practice teachers whose performance is outstanding as evidenced by an exceptionally high level of competence in teaching and classroom management, resourcefulness, and rapport with the students will earn a grade of "1.0-1.9" for practice teaching. Depending on the results of the evaluation of the Cooperating teacher, the Dean and the Program advisers. 2.0-2.9 Practice teachers, who complete all of the teaching responsibilities described above for at least the sixteen-week period, effectively teaching the basic curriculum, will earn a grade of "2.0-2.9". Depending on the results of the evaluation of the Cooperating teacher, the Dean and the Program advisers. 5.0 Practice teachers who encounter major problems and are unable to demonstrate competencies and as a result be withdrawn from the practice teaching experience. PLACEMENT BY PRACTICE TEACHER In the event that circumstances unforeseen cause a practice teacher to be unable to begin a practice teaching assignment after placement has been made, the Practice Teacher must inform the Dean of the College of Education or the Program adviser. The Dean or Program adviser will inform the Public Secondary School’s Principal. If the practice teacher wishes to continue at a later date, he/she must present to the Dean a written explanation and that the circumstances causing the prior cancellation are not likely to be repeated. REMOVAL FROM A PRACTICE TEACHING ASSIGNMENT In the event that the Cooperating Teacher, the host principal and the Program adviser determine that a Practice Teacher’s performance is so unsatisfactory that continuing the practice teaching experience is not in the best interests of either the students in the class or the Practice Teacher, the Practice Teacher will be removed from the assignment. The Program Adviser will confer with the Dean of the College of Education to initiate action for termination of the practice teaching experience. As soon as such determination has been made, the Dean of the College of Education shall notify the Public Secondary School’s Principal and Cooperating Teacher in writing. The practice teacher shall receive a grade of ―5.0‖ under these circumstances and he/she MAY not be allowed to re-enroll practice teaching in the following school year. INCOMPATIBLE WORKING ENVIRONMENT If, in the judgment of the College Dean and the Program Advisers, the environment in which the Practice Teacher is working proves to constitute a significant hindrance to the Practice Teacher’s

success, the practice teacher shall be transferred to other school. WITHDRAWAL POLICY Practice teacher may not withdraw from Practice Teaching without permission. If a Practice Teacher wants to withdraw from the practice teaching assignment for personal reasons, he/she has to write the Program Adviser. The Program adviser then will confer with the Dean. If it is decided that the practice teacher should be allowed to withdraw from practice teaching, the Practice Teacher and Cooperating Teacher including the Host Principal will be notified of the decision. This may prevent the practice teacher from completing certification requirements at ZSCMST-College of Education. REPEATING PRACTICE TEACHING DUE TO EXTRANEOUS CONDITIONS The practice teaching experience may be repeated in the rare event that extraneous conditions or events that could not be anticipated or prevented significantly hindered the practice teacher’s teaching. In consultation with the Dean of the College of Education the practice teacher may re-enroll for another practice teaching placement. The Program adviser must make the determination that conditions or events that could not be anticipated or prevented did, in fact, hinder the practice teacher’s performance before the enrollment can be processed.

MATERIALS : meter stick, book (Physics), visual aids on position-time graph REFERNCE: Santos, Gil Nonato C. and Alfonso C. Danac.L-Physics (Investigatory Physics); Rex Bookstore Inc., Manila Philippines,2006,pp. 50-51

PROCEDURE: A. REVIEW B. TECHNIQUES/STRATEGIES: -Inquiry approach -demonstration method -Discussion method -problem-solving C. LESSON PROPER: 1. Given the data for motion of a car moving eastward: a. Draw a position-time graph or plot distance against time. b. Compute for the average speed and velocity of the car. c. Determine and solve for the slope. d. Interpret the motion of the car. D. GENERALIZATION: Position-time graph is the graph that shows how position depends on the clock read or time. Simply distance against time. Position-time graph is very important tool in the analysis of the motion of a body, for it gives a complete picture of an object that is moving in a straight path. The data are plotted with the time as the independent variable and the position is the dependent variable. The slope represents the speed or velocity of a moving body and can be solved by locating the coordinates of points between the line graph at given time interval. In the given illustration and computed values, the car is moving in a straight path or direction towards east. The speed is constant at 15 m/s.

-Discussion -problem-solving LESSON PROPER 1. The teacher threw a ball upward, and he let the students observe. Assuming that the initial velocity is 2,000 cm/s and was able to catch it before it reached the ground on its return. What was the velocity after 1 second? after 2 seconds? What was its displacement in the first second? How long did it take the ball to reach its maximum height? How far was this maximum height from the starting point? What was its final velocity just before it reached its original position? How long will it take the ball to reach a point 1,000 cm above its original position on its way down? Base from the figure and computed values, how is the motion of the ball upward to its maximum height and the motion of the ball as it moves downward?

D.GENERALIZATION: From the original position, the ball is thrown upward with certain velocity. The distance and time as the ball goes upward are increasing, the velocity is decreasing. True to the given example, the initial velocity is 2,000 cm, after 1 second the velocity is 1,020 cm/s. After 2 seconds, the velocity is decreased to 40 cm/s. Also, the distance of the ball from the original position is 1,510 cm after 1 second. After 2 seconds, the distance has become almost doubled (2,040 cm). An object thrown upward will reach a certain point or maximum height with negative value of acceleration due to gravity or simply a=g=-9.80 m/s2. When it reached the maximum it will momentarily stop and then start to move downward. At this point, v↑= 0, v↓= 0. Then the final velocity has the same magnitude as the initial velocity when the object returns to its starting point. IV.

EVALUATION: Directions: Solve the following. Show your complete computations. 1. If you throw a ball straight up, it leaves your hand with a positive velocity of say, +20 m/s and was able to catch if before it reached the ground on its return: a. what was its velocity after 1 second? After 2 seconds? then compare. b. what was its displacement in the first second, in the next second? c. how long did it take to reach its maximum height? d. how far was this maximum height? e. how long will it take the ball to reach a point 860 cm above your hand on its way down?

How to Discipline Children and Help Them Develop Self-Control

          

The foundations for discipline are laid down in the early years. Flexibility is the key to discipline as children grow. Parents must be prepared to modify their discipline approach over time, using different strategies as their child develops greater independence and capacity for selfregulation and responsibility. During adolescence, the individuals become responsible for their own behavior. Establishing self-control is a process which develops slowly, and the ultimate goal of discipline is to help children build their own self-control, not to have them merely obey adult commands. How do children raised by these types of parents grow up? Follow-up studies show that the moderate way, between extreme permissiveness and extreme strictness, is the most effective of the three styles. Children raised by authoritative/moderate parents tended to have a good self-concept and to be responsible, cooperative, self-reliant and intellectually curious. Children raised by authoritarian/strict parents tended to be timid and withdrawn, less intellectually curious and dependent on the voice of authority. Children raised by permissive parents tended to be immature, reluctant to accept responsibility or to show independence. Following are some helpful discipline techniques: Use language to help solve problems Ignoring Rewards Natural consequences No more no – keep it positive Don't dictate: negotiate Pick your battles Prevention Dealing with unacceptable behavior What doesn't work When to seek help http://www.education.com/reference/article/Ref_About_Discipline/

History[edit] Mindanao University of Science and Technology (MUST) has achieved its university status in 7 January 2009 after a long journey from its humble beginnings as a tradeschool in 1927. The seed of MUST gained roots through the Pre-Commonwealth Act No. 3377 known as the Vocational Act of 1927. It was named as the Misamis Oriental Trade School (MOTS) which catered to the elementary level only but eventually in 1936, it opened a secondary four-year program. In accordance to Republic Act No. 672 of 1952, MOTS became Mindanao School of Arts and Trades (MSAT) offering trade technical curriculum. Later in 1970, the school was authorized by virtue of RA 3959 to offer Bachelor of Science in Industrial Education and the Evening Opportunity Programs. In 1978, Presidential Decree 1431 upgraded the institution to Don Mariano Marcos Memorial Polytechnic State College. In 1991, it was renamed Mindanao Polytechnic State College (MPSC) and it also gained a new function – provide extension services. The proposal to convert MPSC to MUST was presented in 1998, to the constituents of the institution and the general public. But the bill failed to prosper due to the moratorium on the creation of SUCs in the country (1998), Senate adjournment (2003); and the bill named HB 4914 was filed during the 13th Congress but was not finalized. In 2006, Cong. Rufus Rodriguez filed House Bill 4914. On October 3, 2008, the historic Senate Public Hearing happened at the university gymnasium with Sen. Miguel Zubiri as the presiding officer. Eventually, the Senate and Congress approved the bill in December 2008. On January 7, 2009 Republic Act No. 9519 was signed by President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo at the MUST Gymnasium. The occasion was graced by senators, congressmen, local officials, civic [2] organizations, GOs, private sectors, higher education institutions and stakeholders.

Milestones and Timeline[edit]



1927 Pre-Commonwealth Act No. 3377 known as the Vocational Act of 1927 established Misamis Oriental Trade School (MOTS) operating at the elementary level. In 1936, the intermediate program was replaced with the four-year secondary trade program.



1952 Republic Act No. 672 converted MOTS into the Mindanao School of Arts and Trades (MSAT) offering two-year trade technical education. In 1970, Republic Act of 3959 authorized the offering of Bachelor of Science in Industrial Education and the Evening Opportunity Programs.



1978 Presidential Decree 1431 converted MSAT to Don Mariano Marcos Memorial Polytechnic State College (DMMMPSC) with the mission "to provide quality relevant and trained human resources and to promote research supportive to the industrialization of Northern Mindanao."



1991 Republic Act No. 7102 renamed DMMMPSC to Mindanao Polytechnic State College (MPSC) with the addition of the third function of the college — extension services — in the original mission.



1995 Proposal for Mindanao University of Science and Technology was presented to the faculty and staff, students, PTA officials, and the general public. In 2002, Congressman John Michael C. Luzon of the Lone District of Cagayan de Oro filed House Bill No. 4582 for the conversion of MUST. The House Sub-Committee on Higher Education approved the bill in 2003.



2009 Republic Act No. 9519 converted Mindanao Polytechnic State College (MPSC) into a university. [3] MPSC will now be known as Mindanao University of Science and Technology (MUST).



In February 2011, during the MUST days, Rufus Rodriguez said that a bill will be drafted to transform [4] MUST into University of Science and Technology in the Philippines (USTP).

General Mandate[edit] The University shall primarily provide advanced education, higher technological, professional instruction and advanced instruction in mathematics, science, technology, engineering, and advanced research and extension work in human resource development in critical skills and competencies required for global [5] competitiveness. (Republic Act 9519)

Academic Programs offered in the Main Campus[edit] [6]

The four or five year, full-time undergraduate programs comprise a majority of enrollments at the university and emphasizes instruction with an "engineering, sciences and technology focus." MUST's academic programs operate on a semester calendar beginning in early June and ending in late March.

The University Seal[edit] [9]

The seal of MUST is the official device used by the university as its official symbol and mark for its legal and public documents and publications. The current seal in use was chosen through the MUST seal making contest after the school granted university status.

The MUST seal



The navy blue symbolizes importance, confidence, power, authority, intelligence and stability.



The color white symbolizes purity, cleanliness and peace.



The sun is an emblem of glory and brilliance. It also symbolizes hope, happiness, life, spirituality and optimism.



The globe represents the global community which the university aims to serve, and it also symbolizes the global competitiveness.



The laurel symbolizes triumph, hope and victory.



The atom and the gear represents "Science and Technology" which are considered flagship degrees of the University.



The year 1927 indicates the founding year of the University.

Former seal[edit] 

The portions colored red, yellow and blue represent the flag of the Philippines hung vertically.



The book and the torch symbolize the education that every student wants to acquire from this College.



The gear represents technology which is considered as the flagship course of this College.



The 24-toothed gear symbolizes the 24-hour service of the College to the community.



The year 1927 shown inside the book represents the year when MPSC was founded.



Designed by former resident Architectural Drafting Professor, Eliezer Novicio Arnejo.

Semi-government status[edit] Although MUST is enlisted as one of the then-inexpensive major state university in the Philippines, tuition and matriculation fees continue to rise in the past decade. Government subsidy has been gradually withdrawn as it is now a semi-government state university. In a semester, student expenses reach as high as 50% of that of nearby private universities (e.g., Xavier University - Ateneo de Cagayan, Liceo de Cagayan University, Capitol University). As of 2007, only 75 million pesos was appropriated for general [10] administration and support, support to operations, and other operations by the budget department.
