    (Appendix 7) FAQs On Alternative Classroom Observation

    The document provides frequently asked questions and responses about alternative classroom observations for the 2020-2021 school year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. There are three alternative modes of observation: 1) online observation of synchronous online classes, 2) observation of an asynchronous video lesson created by the teacher, and 3) observation of a demonstration teaching via a Learning Action Cell for teachers using printed/TV/radio instruction. Teachers can only use one mode for the entire school year. The modality adopted by the teacher determines the observation mode. Internet issues should not penalize teachers during online observations. Video lessons must be materials actually used in teaching and not created just for the observation.

    FAQs on the Alternative Classroom Observations


    for RPMS SY 2020-2021

    Topics Frequently Asked Questions with Responses


    General Questions Q: What are the alternative classroom observations for SY 2020-2021?
    A: There are 3 modes of observation for SY 2020-2021 namely, online
    observation (option 1), observation of a video lesson (option 2), and
    observation of a demonstration teaching via LAC (option 3).

    Q: Who/what will determine the mode of observation?


    A: The modality adopted by the teacher will determine the mode of
    observation.

    Q: I will adopt 2-3 learning modalities (blended learning) for the school year.
    What do I consider for observation?
    A: If online synchronous is one of your modalities, take option 1 (online
    observation) as the sole mode of observation. If online asynchronous is
    one of your modalities and online synchronous is not possible, take
    option 2 (observation of a video lesson). If online learning (synchronous
    or asynchronous) is neither of your modalities, take option 3
    (observation of a demonstration teaching via LAC).

    Q: Can I shift between modes of observation?


    A: No. Use only one mode of observation for the entire year.

    Q: How many observations are required for SY 2020-2021?


    A: Only 2 observations are required.
    Online observation Q: I only have 1 online class with 5 learners in a week. Does online
    observation apply to me?
    A: Yes. Online observation applies to teachers adopting online
    synchronous learning regardless of the number of classes and learners.

    Q: Does online observation apply to blended learning?


    A: Yes, as long as online synchronous learning is one of your modalities
    in blended learning.

    Q: What if my online class was cut off due to intermittent internet connection
    during my scheduled observation, can I reschedule the online observation?
    A: Yes. You can reschedule the observation with your observer/s. Other
    factors outside the performance of the teacher such as poor internet
    connection and sudden power outage should not be graded against the
    teacher.

    Q: Can I submit a recording of my online teaching if my internet is perennially


    unstable?
    A: Yes. This can be discussed with your observer/s.
    Observation of a Q: How do I create a video lesson?
    video lesson A: You record yourself while teaching a lesson using any video
    recording device.

    Q: Can I submit a video lesson that is not used in any of my classes?


    A: No. A video lesson must have been used in your lesson delivery as
    part of your supplementary materials or as one of your learning
    materials for online asynchronous learning.

    Q: Is the video lesson used for TV-based instruction?


    Bureau of Human Resource and
    2
    Organizational Development

    A: No. The video lesson is a teacher-made learning material used for


    online asynchronous learning.

    Q: How do I let my observers access my video lesson intended for


    observation?
    A: Give your observers access to the storage cloud (e.g., Google Drive)
    or any storage device (e.g., flash drive) where the video lesson is saved.
    You can also give access to your online classroom (e.g., Google
    Classroom) or a Learning Management System where the video lesson
    is uploaded.
    Observation of a Q: In what learning modality does observation of a demonstration teaching
    demonstration via Learning Action Cell (LAC) apply?
    teaching via A: This mode of observation applies to purely modular learning
    Learning Action (print/digital), radio-based instruction, and TV-based instruction.
    Cell (LAC)
    Q: Why is LAC utilized for teaching observation?
    A: This may be the best time to use LAC as an opportunity for both ratees
    and observers to discuss collegially strategies in improving the teaching
    and learning processes especially in addressing challenges in learning
    delivery brought by the pandemic.
