ON BECOMING THE 21ST CENTURY TEACHER
Credit: 1 unit
Duration: 18 hours

Field Study 6 On Becoming the 21st Century Teacher is one of the Experiential Learning
Courses of the prospective teacher. It is 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). The updated workbook is slanted towards OBE
in Teacher Education as Provided by CHED Administrative Order No. 1, s. 2014.

The Teaching Profession and Community Immersion are the two subjects where FS 6, maybe
anchored on all experiential activities are related to the in-depth understanding and testing of
learned concepts through actual immersion and observations in real life situations that relate
to teaching and learning.

Kolbs Experiential Learning Cycle guides the process that every student should undergo.
The model presents the four elements which are:
1. Concrete experiences activities that the students are asked to do in the school or
community setting.
2. Observation and reflection concrete experiences through direct or indirect observation
through data, reflections, and insights.
3. Forming and affirming concepts through observation and reflection validation of
prior learnings, or forming of new ones to enhance prior learning.
4. Testing in new situation in the future forming plans on how to utilize learnings when
student become student teachers or professional teachers.

Portfolio Entry

Name of the Teacher: Mrs. Jran T. Occea

Personal Qualities:

Maam Occea is an intelligent teacher for me. She possesses a lot of

qualities a teacher should possess. Shes compassionate for she appreciates every
effort her students did and tolerates their good habits in learning. Shes
innovative for shes making new
instructional materials out of an old one
and does integrate technology in her
teachings. She is also a fair teacher for she
gives an equal chance for her students to be
heard. I really admire her in some aspects
of being a teacher. She never complains on
the task given by the school principal to her
even though it is not already her command
responsibility. For me, Maam Occea is an
honourable teacher.

My Reflections/Insights
A. How do I use my personal qualities to become a good teacher? Write in at
least two (2) paragraphs.
As a prospective teacher, I am going to use my personal qualities to become a good
teacher by applying all of the acquired and learned techniques, strategies,
methods, and approaches to my teachings. All the knowledge, skills, attitudes and
values I have will be reflected on my teachings as well as in dealings with my
future students.

I will also be an emphatic teacher someday so that I can be able to understand my

students e.g. their levels of learnings and their skills and values. For I do believe
that a teacher does not focus on teaching the knowledge and skills rather instilling
values as well in molding the young minds and hearts.

B. How does the experienced teacher, utilized his/her personal qualities to

make him/her good teacher? Write in at least two (2) paragraphs.

The teacher utilizes her personal qualities to make her a good teacher by
giving her students a fair share in the teaching - learning process. She
accepts her students ideas, opinions and concepts about the lessons.

The teacher as well share her own experiences to the students not to boast
herself rather to serves as an inspiration to them that in every walk of life
there are always difficulties and struggles we encounter in our ways to
success and better life we aimed for. The essence of them all, the lessons and
learning s you pick that makes a better and mature you.

Reflections.
I am a compassionate being, sympathetic and empathic of course, a determined individual that
can do a task given with or without supervision. I love teaching.
As a future teacher, I will impart not only the knowledge and
skills rather instilling values to the young hearts and minds. It is a
great opportunity on my part to be a part of their lives and a part of
their success as well.
For I do believe that, efforts and
courage are useless without purpose
and direction. Therefore, I am
working very hard now in shaping my
future and in achieving goals in life.

2. Photo Essay of the Experienced

Teacher Personal Attributes or
Characteristics and reflections.
Friendly, approachable,
compassionate, kind, passionate in teaching, love the subject
taught, patient and help us to succeed by sharing ideas and some
techniques, strategies and methods that will surely help us achieve our dreams (which is to
become a teacher).
Maam Occea is one of an example of an excellent teacher in the field, because she can
handle many students or two sections in an hour class successfully. She encourages them to
learn and teach those new facts and informations that are relevant in the lessons and
todays trend.
I can reflect on her, because during my elementary days we were combined with the
other class in order for the teacher to catch up with the required topics on time before the
final exams or periodic test. It is not easy to be a teacher for it is a very tedious task but
then, I am determined to be one.

philosophy are:

Well, I do believe that my dominant philosophy or strong belief is reflected in what I

am doing as a future teacher because I am learning well if I experienced or discovered
my own. I dont just rely on the facts and concepts given rather I love to expand my
idea through searching and further readings.

The practices that I will do, that will reflect my Philosophy of Education will be:

The practices I do are discovery learning, experiential learning, uses authentic task and
materials, and integrate technology in my learning.

2. In your observations, does an experienced teacher practice what they

believe in (philosophy of education) in actual teaching? If yes, describe the
instance/ episode. If No, what could be the reason?

As what I have observed, Maam Occea and Maam Rafols practiced their both
philosophy of education in actual teaching. For example, Maam Occea let her
students locate the place/country of where the place can be found on the glode or
map. Then, she let her students do an activity( story mapping). While Maam Rafols,
make a connection of events in the story in the real life situation.

LEARNING EPISODE 3: THE

Field Study 6
TEACHER IN A SCHOOL SETTING
On Becoming
the 21st
Century

MY FS LEARNING TASK OVERVIEW

A teacher as a professional will always be found in a school setting. A teachers official
working place is a school. A school is an institution where learning occurs under the guidance
of a professional called the teacher.
How does a teacher operate or function in a school setting? How will a teacher manage
the learning environment in the school setting?
MY DESIRED LEARNING OUTCOMES
List the activities in the daily routine of the teacher
Identify the teachers role in creating a conducive learning environment in the school.
This experiential learning episode will take you to the school setting. You will spend more
time making observations and talking to your resource teacher. Here are the steps that
will guide you in your journey today.

Step 1: Visit a particular teacher in school.

Step 2: Secure the teachers program. Study the time schedule and activities.
Step 3: Make a school setting observation at a certain period of the days activities.

Based on the daily program, find out what the teacher is supposed to do during the time
of your visit. Observe what the teacher is doing. Take note of the different activities.

My Learning Essentials
A regular school day is equivalent to 8 hours. It begins officially at 8:00 in the morning
and ends up at 5:00 in the afternoon. Adjustments are sometimes made, but the time spent in
school is 8 hours. Majority (of the eight hours) is spent guiding the learners in their lessons,
which is called the contact period. Usually, the teacher is assigned to teach for 6 hours. The
remaining time of 2 hours is spent for co-curricular and extra-curricular activities. Normally,
there are five school days per week, Monday to Friday.

Usually, a teacher is assigned to one class, as a class adviser. She is made to teach one or
more subject content areas depending on the population of the school and the number of
teachers. There are schools where the teacher teaches all the subjects for the whole class
while in bigger schools they have subject area specialists, who teach the same subject in the
same grade level or different grade levels.

My Reflections/ Insights

Based on the teachers program and your observations, answer the following:
1. Would you consider teaching as a full time job? Why? Why not?
No, for I do believe that teaching is a mission. I am being called and send to teach the young
minds and hearts. I am going to do it not only for the pay rather for the service. Even though
nobody recognizes my efforts I will still remain teaching. And right now I am very excited to
teach.

2. Are the conditions in the classroom conducive to the welfare of both the learners and
teacher? How will you improve on it?
Honestly, its partly no, because there are sections which have many members that a small
classroom cannot cater them all. Some of the students sit on a stool with no armchair. They
over crowded the room and sometimes there are a lot of destructions (noise). Maybe I can
improve it by dividing the group into two sections. There, the teacher can cater them all as
well as the seats in the classroom. The school as well can request a light bulb or fluorescent
bulb to light the classrooms and ceiling fans or electric fans to ventilate their rooms to make it
more conducive and comfortable for the teacher and the students.

3. After closely observing the teacher in the school setting, are you motivated to continue
on becoming a teacher? What in the teachers practices inspire you to become a
professional teacher?
Yes I am motivated to continue on becoming a teacher. Like what Maam Occea did, she
inspires me that I can be a better teacher someday as well as Maam Rafols. Their practices
inspire me to do more and I can do something they dont have in molding the lives of the
young ones.

4. How can I improve the school setting that I observed when I become a teacher?
a. Classroom arrangement
The textbooks should be placed and arranged accordingly in a cabinet with
designated names.

b. Bulletin Board display

Display new charts and diagrams that are relevant on the lesson or subject matter
taught not the obsolete one.
 c. School Playground
Create a wider space and covered so that the students can play even if its raining or
not.

In the Philippines, the government has built schools in almost all barangays, town or city.
This was done to provide access and equal opportunity for every school child for quality
education. At present, there are more than half a million public school teachers deployed in all
these schools throughout the country. The school and the teacher have a very crucial
responsibility in bringing about change and development in the community on one hand and
the community provides a lot learning opportunities on the other hand.
Where else can one find resources that are authentic and are in the context of school
setting? The COMMUNITY. Who is one significant community person who earns great respect of
the community? The TEACHER.

While the school is the official working place of a Teacher, the
community is the wider learning environment.
Schools are often perceived to be the transformative agent of change;
hence the teachers are agents of change.
The teachers are looked upon as important agents of change.
Teachers roles and functions do not stop within the four walls of the
school, but extend beyond the community.
The community provides the authentic resource for teaching and
learning.

Teachers Story
Living abroad can challenge you in ways that you never thought possible. It puts you in
unfamiliar situations and tests your reactions. During the process, a person will most definitely change,
but it doesnt necessarily make them a better person. Its how we react and adapt to these new
challenges that decides if weve truly become better or not. I am a Math Teacher who dreamed to work
abroad in my early years of teaching in Philippines until I was recommended by a friend to work here in
Indonesia. In our school community I am experiencing diversity in terms of culture and beliefs but as
time go by Im learning to understand and adapt some of their beliefs without forgetting that I am a
Filipino. I can say that working abroad helped me to become more independent be globally competitive to
other race of people. We Filipinos should be proud for being A FILIPINO citizen even we are in other
country. Since then, I have been fulfilling my dream of traveling the world by teaching Mathematics in

the one that makes him happy as a teacher. Students who do not pay
attention in learning the subject makes him feel disappointed as a
teacher. INSET for K 12 programs is the professional development
activity/ training he participated in. Sad to say he never belonged to
any professional organization. The code of conduct he strictly follows
is the teachers and the learners. The relationship of the teachers with
their students must hold a strong bond wherein students could open
up their problems with the teachers to seek some advice is the specific
behaviour that should be followed to the utmost according to him.

someone who has travelled it. Looking back to her early
years as a professional compared to the mentees now she
