MODULE OVERVIEW
In this Module:
In today’s education system technology becomes part of the teaching and learning.
Most of the educators are looking for different technology to be used in teaching different
students. The effective use of the technology in Education has improved the look of
education and it gives more educational chances. Using technology in teaching and
learning benefitted both the teachers and the students. Through the use of technology,
teachers have learned how to integrate technology in their teaching and learning,
while students become more engaging, and enhance their interest in learning.
Objectives:
Introduction
In this lesson, you will be able to learn the meaning of educational technology and
its relationship to instructional technology, technology integration, and educational
media.

Analysis
Describe the picture below. In five sentences give your thoughts about
what the picture tells about educational technology.
Abstraction
There are so many educators that give the meaning of educational technology.
One of the definitions tells as that it is the implementation of appropriate tools,
techniques, or processes that facilitate the application of senses, memory, and
cognition to enhance teaching practices and improve learning outcomes.
Educational technology is based on theoretical knowledge from different
disciplines plus experiential knowledge from educational practice.
Educational Technology is a complex, integrated process involving people,
procedures, ideas, devices, and organizations for analyzing problems and devising,
implementing, evaluating, and managing solutions to those problems.
With the definitions above, we can say that educational technology is a very broad
term. It does not only talk about computer, projectors, TV, and other electronic materials,
but it also talks about how are these tools be used in the teaching and learning
process. Further, educational technology also means facilitation of human learning
through systematic identification, development, organization, and utilization of full
range of learning resources and through the management of these processes [4].
Educational technology is also associated with other terms. These terms include
technology in education, instructional technology, technology integration, and educational media
[1]. Let us define how these terms are related to educational technology.

This lesson aims to help you to understand the usefulness of technology in the
teaching and learning process. At the end of the lesson you will be able to:
Introduction
Understanding the how technology works in education and how are these will
be used in the teaching and learning process are very difficult especially in teaching
and in this digital age. That is why it is very important that as teachers in the future
where technology is continuously developing, it is very important that we have to keep
updated on what is going on.
In this lesson, you will be able to learn how to choose appropriate technology to
be used in the teaching and learning process and be able to trace back the history of
educational technology.

Analyze the following questions below and write your answer on the
space provided.
1. If you are to teach, what are the things that you need to consider in the use of
technology as your material?
2. What specific technology in the picture above is/are the most useful in teaching
and learning process? Why?
3. If the teacher lets you write and do lecture, do you think this can be classified
as technology? Why?
Abstraction
Technology plays an important role in the teaching and learning process.
Even before, if we can trace back the history of educational technology
we can say that it is already being used to help the teachers teach their
learners. But first let us define what technology is. Technology is defined
as the application of scientific knowledge to the practical aims of human life
or, as it is sometimes phrased, to the change and manipulation of the
human environment. Therefore, when we say technology we are not only
referring
lOMoARcPSD|12140036
to different devices like computers, cellphone, and the like. Even books,
chalkboards, and teaching strategies can be considered as technology, why?
Because these are application of scientific knowledge like research. Now let
us trace back when does technology is being used inside the classroom.

This lesson aims to determine the roles of technology for the teaching and learning.
At the end of the lesson you will be able to:
In the previous lesson we have learned the importance of the use of technology in
the teaching and learning. The use of technology can be done two ways whether it can be
used in a traditional classroom or in a constructivist classroom. But how are these two
different from each other? You will be able to find out as you go along with this module.

Abstraction
Teaching and learning process can be both done either in traditional
way of teaching or in a constructivist way of teaching. These two methods
are still effective in delivering lesson to learners. In the traditional
perspective in teaching and learning teacher is delivering the lesson in a
traditional way like giving of lecture, showing a video, presenting through
a power point presentation.
lOMoARcPSD|12140036
In the first activity in this module, you will see two boxes, each of box a represent
the traditional point view and constructivist point of view in teaching. In the first box,
what are characteristics do you think are present in the scenario? Correct, the
characteristics traditional point of view in teaching includes SOURCE OF
KNOWLEDGE, KNOLEDGE IS EMBEDDED IN THE TECHNOLOGY, AND
PRESENTER OF KNOWLEDGE.
The second box represent the constructivist point of view. What characteristics we
can get from the scenario? The characteristics include SERVES AS LEARNING TOOLS,
ENGAGES LEARNERS, COOPERATIVE LEARNING, ACTIVE, INTENTIONAL,
AUTHENTIC, CONSTRUCTIVE, AND TEACHER FACILITATES THINKING AND
KNOWLEDGE CONSTRUCTION.
With the two point of view in using technology in the teaching learning process, both can
be very useful in teaching if it used effectively. Researchers believed that technology
lOMoARcPSD|12140036
With the proper use of technology in the classroom, the students will be able to
control more of their own learning. This also changes the classroom setting from
teacher- dominated classroom environment to student- centered classroom. In
addition, the use of technology in the classroom will also allow the teachers to do
different teaching strategies and teaching styles since students are different in terms
of their readiness, interests, intelligences, and learning styles. And lastly, this will also
help the students to become lifelong learners.

Based on the roles of technology in constructivists’ perspective,
identify under which role and process is illustrated by each of the following
MODULE OVERVIEW
In this Module:
ICT is a modern tool which provides immense effect in all fields of living.
Especially in the field of education, efficiency and effectiveness of teaching methods
and learning strategies were observed. However, it is sad that not all learners experience
such advancement in education, especially those living in far-flung areas. Moreover,
ICT tools may also provide negative impact to you and the learners, specifically in the
physical and social wellness. To lessen, if not eradicate, these matters, the national and
international government and agencies worked together in helping the users, like you,
on how to utilize ICT in education effectively and efficiently that will benefit the
populace.
This module discusses the different policies and safety issues users, like you and
your learners, should observe in working with the ICT tools to maximize its use in the
teaching-learning process.
Objectives:
Introduction
The world has undergone drastic change where efficiency steps up to be great
indicator of competitiveness. Countries with better governance, transparency and
efficient bureaucracies will see greater investment flow, jobs and will eventually provide
a quality of life to the populace. Moreover, individuals are trained to be equipped with
the 21st century skills as they are required to be more efficient and advanced. ICT is the
best tool to cope with these changes.
In this lesson, you will be able to understand how the national government
implemented policies to uphold the utilization of ICT in education.
Activity 1
Example: Ganito kami sa (write the name of your previous school), meron kaming (write

Analysis
After completing your work above, answer the questions below as guide for
reflective thinking. Use the space after each question to discuss your answer.
1. Who do you think initiated for the school to obtain those ICT tools you have
mentioned? Why do you think so?
2. What changes have you noticed from your experiences in the teaching-learning
process with and without the use of ICT tools?
3. How did those ICT technology tools contributed for the benefit of the teachers and
learners in the school you mentioned?
Abstraction
As ICT becomes everyday tools in the lives of the Southeast
Asians, the governments of Southeast Asian countries (SEAMEO Member
Countries) devout in bringing the ICT into schools. This will give
opportunities for learners to analyze information, solve problems,
communicate collaboratively, and will eventually make them competitive
in the 21st century market.
The SEAMEO in 2010 reported that the Philippines is categorized under the Group
2 countries based on the progress of ICT in education. Countries of this level are in the
infusing stage. This means that most of the country’s ICT plans and policies in education
are in the process of being integrated in the existing teaching, learning and administrative
practices and policies. However, struggles still prevail for some rural areas which are still
in the emerging stage, the lowest level in the scale. With this, Philippine schools, being in
the first level, need to move up to be able to cope up with Group 1 countries like Malaysia
and Brunei Darussalam, which have developed national ICT in education plans and
policies.
The discussion will focus on the strategies and programs which are related in the field
of education. In this part, the Roadmap first focused in ensuring the accessibility of the
ICT as support for learners’ education.
The Community e-Center Program
The Community e-Center Program provides accessibility of ICT resources, such
telecommunications and Internet access, to the people living in the different localities of
the country. Internet in Schools (iSchools) project is one focus of this program that gives
public high schools connectivity, Internet training, tech support and monitoring and
evaluation.
National Broadband Plan
Providing adequate bandwidth to the community is keep to the ICT development.
In this way, adequate use of ICT will be available in most, if not all, parts of the
country. Presented below is the provision of broadband connectivity in public high
schools.
LOCATION TARGET
Key cities and 100% by 2010, jointly undertaken by the private
municipalities sector, LGU’s, DepEd, & CICT

class sector, LGU’s, DepEd, & CICT
municipalities
Remaining 60% by 2010, jointly undertaken by the private
municipalities sector, LGU’s, DepEd, & CICT
The government believes their role, along with the private sector, in providing ICT
services to the people should ensure a free and fair competition in the marketplace.
But with some places are remote and disadvantaged, the government strived to
provide Community e-Centers in these unserved areas. But once the private sectors
initiate for expansion in these areas, the government is prepared to yield its access.
The Roadmap also highlighted the development of human capital in education for
sustaining human development through the use of ICT. Harnessing the human capital
vis-a-vis ICT enables life-long learning. And in the field of education, the focus of ICT
in the human capital is manifested through the ICT for Education (ICT4E) program of
the Department of Education. The discussion below focused on the ICT4E program of
the DepEd as part of the Strategic Roadmap of the CICT.
With this, the DepEd strived to enhance the curriculum, develop the school
personnel, and strengthen school governance and management. To begin with, the
DepEd moved to enhancing the existing curriculum by implementing these significant
changes.
Because of the scarcity of resources, they first focused on the enhancement
of the BEC by emphasizing ICT learning targets – basic operations and
concepts; social, ethical and human issues; ICT for producing; ICT for
communicating; ICT for researching; and ICT for problem-solving. Learners
are expected to
lOMoARcPSD|12140036
develop these skills throughout their formal years of schooling. ALS learners
and Technical-Vocational High School learners were included in this plan.
The DepEd has designed materials to support customized teaching for
digital learning, and were made available in the DepEd website. However,
access teachers’ accessibility and comprehensive inventory of its use
remains a challenge. So to bridge this gap, a sector-wide Digital Content
Development and Usability Framework is drafted to intensify the use of
Multimedia Instructional Materials (MIM).
With BESRA, the DepEd developed Assessment Framework which entails on
developing assessment standards, tests and other instruments, conducting
training programs, and formalizing assessment roles. Moreover, this plan is
viewed to help widen different assessment methods to efficiently facilitate
assessment planning, collections, analysis and reporting of data and
findings. Learners, in return, will be eased for paper-and-pen tests focusing
on multi- dimensional assessment tasks.
The plan also emphasized the vital role of the community in strengthening the
performance of the schools around them. DepEd’s coordination includes planning and
sustaining ICT investment to achieve collaboration from the stakeholders.
Parents are of great help in developing the 21st century skills of their
learners; thus, adhering to the success of school-based management (SBM).
Tertiary institution can act as partners of the programs of their research groups
about ICT plans and implementation which would likely benefit the
learners.
Private sectors always offer way to provide the school with resources,
including the limitations of ICT infrastructures.
Community centers, such as Internet cafes and other eCenters, cater digital
divide that provides equity of access among the learners.
lOMoARcPSD|12140036
Local government units are always involved in supplying what lacks from
every school and provide support in achieving a sustainable ICT-enabled
school.
To concretize the plan of the DepEd, the Strategic Roadmap of the CICT
included initiatives supporting the ICT4E program, which are listed below.
The ICT in Education Masterplan which aimed to craft the National
Framework Plan for ICTs in Basic Education (2005) that will focus on
faculty development in ICT.
The Open Content in Education Initiative (OCEI) which converted DepEd’s
instructional materials into interactive multimedia content, and promote the
development of web-related content in education.
The PhEdNet which acted as a digital collection of learning contents and
application approved by the DepEd which can be accessed by the Filipino
learners and teachers.
The eSkwela established Community eLearning Centers for out-of-school
youth that gave them ICT-enhanced alternative education opportunities.
The eQuality Program is designed for tertiary education that the state
universities and colleges (SUCs) used to improve the quality of IT education in
the country.
The Digital Media Arts Program used Open Source technologies to build
digital media skills to beneficiary agencies, including the SUCs.
The ICT Skills Strategic Plan allowed inter-agency approach in designing
strategic, policy and program recommendations to address gaps of ICT skills.
This photo shows the partnership between the DepEd and the
foreign agencies, World Vision and ProFuturo Foundation, in a
certain school at Malabon City to launch the nationwide Digital
Education project.
This photo shows the DepEd Commons that stored all the
instructional materials needed by the teachers of the DepEd in
teaching their specialized field.
APPLICATION
Based on how far you have known about the ICT4E Program of the DepEd,
interview one learner from your neighborhood who studying in a public high school. Ask
the progress of their ICT implementation and infrastructures around their school. Then,
make an essay that critiques their implementation, and suggestion on how to realize some
of the plans and programs listed in the Strategic Roadmap. Write your essay on the blank
scroll below. You don’t need to write the name of the learner, just the school.
lOMoARcPSD|12140036
Objectives:
This lesson aims to explain the different safety issues you and the learners should
observe in using the ICT with an expectation that the students are able to:
discuss the different safety issues in the ICT as given by the government and
other organizations;
explain how safety can be ensured by the learners and teachers in using ICT
in the teaching-learning process; and
propose ways on how safety issues in the ICT is observed for educational use.
Introduction
Maximizing the use of ICT accomplishing academic tasks may also lead to its
excessive use, which most users are not aware of. Learners may sometimes divert
their attention into an unhealthy social interaction. Teachers, like you, used to spend
time in finishing academic tasks for that make cause eye strain and other physical
pain. These situations may likely make ICT a disadvantage, rather than a benefit, to
both you and your learners.
In this lesson, you will be oriented with the different health and social issues
and legalities that ICT may cause, in order to help you avoid in dealing with such
instances.
Activity 1
lOMoARcPSD|12140036
Analysis
1. Based on your safety precautions, are you focusing on one aspect only (e.g.
health)? What do you think are the other aspects that need to be looked into when
using the ICT tools?
2. How does your safety precautions helped you in optimizing the benefits you
obtained from using ICT in learning?
3. Are there instances when you failed to follow some of your safety precautions?
Why did that happen? What have you learned?
Abstraction
ICT tools may have provided people with convenience and benefits that
they can’t imagine working and studying without its existence, but these tools may
also cause harm and negative effects if it won’t be used appropriately. Below are
some of the safety issues that will help you prevent accidents as you use your
ICT tools for teaching and your learners from learning.
Trailing Cables: Mostly, computers are connected using lots of cables. If these cables are laid down
on the floor, people may trip over them.
Spilt Drinks or Food: Damage to the tool or electric shock to the user
may be obtained if liquids are spilled to a computer or any
electrical equipment.
Aside from securing the physical safety of the users of ICT, you and your learners should
also remember the detrimental effects of ICT tools in the users’ health knowing that you often
spend your time in your computers and laptops. Some of these health-related effects are listed
below.
Eye-Strain: Excessive use of computers may cause tiredness of the eyes, or eye strain.
Usually, users experiencing this looks at the monitoring from constant distance away.
With that, your eyes cannot focus and gets tired and painful.
Back and Neck Ache: Bad sitting posture caused by working at a computer for a long time
may result to a back and neck pain.
Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI) in Wrists and Hands: Movements done over and over
again results to repetitive strain injury. Typing and using a mouse for long periods
may cause RSI in the wrist.
To fully ensure the users with their right of using the ICT, an enabling legal policy is
institutionalized by the government. Part of these legalities is securing the personal and social
safety of you and your learners in using ICT.
Data Privacy Act 2012 (Republic Act 10173)
This law is established by the National Privacy Commission to protect the basic
right to privacy of the citizens while ensuring a smooth flow of information to promote
innovation and growth, which all the citizens, and offices and agencies should abide. It
aims to give protection to all forms of information – private, personal or sensitive.
Because of the increasing importance of ICT in all fields of work, the protection
of personal data collected should be strengthened. A trustworthy legal environment
that ensures data privacy will likely result in higher trust and confidence for the
Philippine ICT environment.
Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012 (Republic Act 10175)
This law is signed by President Aquino on September 12, 2012 which sought to
protect and safeguard the value of computer, computer systems, networks, and
database, with the confidentiality and availability of information and stored from all
forms of misuse, abuse and illegality. A Cybercrime and Cyberfraud Prevention law
helped provide the legal basis for enforcing security measures and protecting the
general public interest.
Freedom of Information Law (Executive Order No. 2, s. 2016)
Observing the following safety issues in education helps your and your learners’
interaction with the ICT tools. This will likely increase the benefit you obtained from these
tools. So, here are some of the ways on how you can lessen, if not eradicate, the safety issues
listed in the previous section of this lesson.
In order to prevent accidents as you conduct classes or prepare your lessons, these are
good suggestions that you can follow.
lOMoARcPSD|12140036
Trailing Cables: To lessen this instance in learning and teaching, these cables should be
placed inside a series of cable ducts or just tapes, or under the carpet.
Spilt Drinks or Food: It is better if you and your learners should place the foods and drinks
away from computers.
Overloaded Power Sockets: This often happens in the classroom when you and your
learners are something bulks of work to beat the deadline. Better use different sockets and
make sure that there is a fire extinguisher nearby if unexpected events may happen.
Heavy Falling Objects: Digital projectors and speakers, for example, should be placed on
strong tables and shelves whenever used in the class as you are teaching the lesson.
For the health-related issues, you can also follow the suggestions as you accomplish
your academic tasks.
Eye-Strain: To lessen this, looking away from time to time to be able to exercise the
muscles of the eye and taking regular break are helpful ways to avoid this problem.
Back and Neck Ache: There are different ways to avoid this problem. Using adjustable and
ergonomic chair and taking regular breaks will help. Lastly, adjusting the keyboard and
monitor at the correct height of the user lessen your chance of experiencing back and neck
pain.
Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI) in Wrists and Hands: To solve this problem, using a wrist-rest
is a good support while typing ang using a mouse. Taking regular breaks may also
help.
The legal basis of people’s interaction in ICT is advantageous to those who observe the
proper usage of it. So, it is good if you use the laws mentioned above to your benefit.
Data Privacy Act 2012 (Republic Act 10173): With this law, you are guided not to reveal
information from your learners, like their parents’ names, location and learner
reference number (LRN). Moreover, scores they obtained from your class should also be
taken with confidentiality.
Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012 (Republic Act 10175): In this law, you and the learners
are guided to treat everyone and every information online with respect and appropriately.
Interactions, such as exchange of ideas and online conversation, must ensure the security
of rights of those involved. You should maintain professionalism in all aspect, as much as
possible.
Freedom of Information Law (Executive Order No. 2, s. 2016): This law informs you and your
learners to always keep yourselves informed. As the saying goes, “ignorance of the law
excuses no one”. Rules, policies and laws should be understood before interacting to a
certain situation, such as involving in cyberbullying and other unacceptable online
practices.

Improve the list you have written in the Activity part by relating it to your
academic practices as you learn you lessons in the second column. In the third column,
write how you can observe that in your teaching preparation and instruction.
Objectives:
This lesson aims to explain how ICT is integrated in the teaching-learning of some
Philippine school with an expectation that the students are able to:
describe the implementation of ICT policies in teaching and learning processes;
and
match the ICT policies that are incorporated to the design and implementation
of teaching-learning activities.
Introduction
As a teacher, you have to make sure that you hone learners’ 21st century skills;
and one of these is teaching them how to utilize the ICT tools for their economic and
technical advantage. You have to make sure that you utilize ICT in widening their
understand of your subject matter, and will help them use ICT in deepening their
knowledge. Learning some of the best ways on how ICT tools were utilized in
previous classroom experiences is one of the stepping stone in planning how you will
make an efficient ICT-enhanced classroom.
In this lesson, you will be oriented with some classroom experiences that
maximizes the ICT policies implemented by the DepEd and other national and
international agencies.

implemented the integration of ICT in
education. Below is the different focus for improvement of ICT in education. From 1 to 5,
being is the lowest and 5 is the highest, evaluate the implementation of the following
focus of ICT in education. Write your rates on the blank beside each item.
Analysis
After completing your work above, answer the questions below as guide for
reflective thinking. Use the space after each question to discuss your answer.
1. What is your basis of your rates? How would you describe your rates as a whole?
2. What should the government do in order to improve your rates for each focus
of ICT in education?
3. What do you think will happen if you already have rated ‘5’ for all the focus of
ICT in education? Why do you think so?
Abstraction
The key to a successful implementation of ICT in education is careful
planning and teachers’ empowerment towards ICT use. With that, the
DepEd has an ICT4E Program that will cater these opportunities for
development. The plans and programs listed in the Strategic Roadmap
were slowly realized through adopting various strategies that implement
ICT in the teaching-learning process and the education in general. The
UNESCO’s International Institute for Educational Planning listed
considerations and application of how ICT is integrated in education, and
will be discussed based on how it can be manifested in the Philippine
schools.
Digital culture and digital literacy: Digital literacy is a skill of searching for and
producing information through the use of media for the society. This resulted to a
digital culture that impacts the construction and distribution of information and
power around the world. With that, the Philippine schools utilize the ICT to foster
digital literacy among learners in order to prepare them for their future work.
o One laptop per child: Although less expensive laptops are advised to be used
to attain the 1:1 basis, developing countries, like the Philippines, still finds
it hard provide one laptop per child. Instead, the country just built a
computer laboratory to cater the needs of the learners for computer access
in the schools.
o Tablets: Tablets are small computers that the learners can use by themselves
anytime at any place. It allows learners to explore application that they can
use for learning. However, it is still far from reality for the Philippine public
schools. Only some prestigious private schools of the country require this
from their learners, like the De Salle schools.
o Interactive White Boards or Smart Boards: Interactive white boards allow
you and the learners to display, manipulate, drag, click or copy images.

interest in class, and collaboration were manifested. Moreover, teacher’s efficiency and
effectiveness were observed after the conduct of the study.
Through the partnership of the Intel Teach Programme of the Intel Philippines and
the Department of Education, learning is enhanced using technological media apart from
the information presented in the textbooks and other printed materials. The report of
SEAMEO even highlighted a few examples of how a class PC tools and application
enhanced lessons today.
Instead of copying and writing data from the references, lessons were
focused more on analyzing and thinking critically.
Activities are enhanced using a fast Internet research and communication.
Creativity is encouraged from the learners as they are asked to make
multimedia presentations, rather than written documents.
Difficult lessons, like Math problems, can be presented using a game-like
software.
Assessment tasks will be administered efficiently using computers.
Monitoring, communicating and collaborating with the learners, grouped or
individually, makes classroom management easier and fast as you strive to
keep them focused and engaged.
Only if the learners can have the accessibility of the different PC tools and the fast
Internet connection, the effects of ICT in education would have been its maximum.
Hopefully, the transformation of education to an ICT-enhanced environment for learning
will soon be realized.

Technology integration does not only refer to the use of technology in the
classroom. It also refers to how technology matches the task and provides students
with an opportunity to build a deeper understanding of content. Technology
integration's effectiveness is achieved when students can select technology tools to
promptly obtain information, analyze and synthesize the information, and present it
professionally.
So, for you to get acquainted with how you will integrate technology in the
teaching and learning process, you must learn the theories and principles of
technology integration.
This module discusses three of the most common theories and principles of
technology integration. This includes Edgar Dale's Cone of Experiences, TPACK Model
of Technology Integration, and SMAR Model of Technology Integration.
LESSON
1
Objectives:
This lesson aims to analyze Edgar Dale's Cone of Experiences. At the end
of the lesson you will be able to:
1. discuss the different each bond of Edgar Dale's Cone of Experiences; and
2. compare Dale's Cone of Experiences to Bruner's Three- Tiered Model of
Learning.
Introduction
In the systematic approach to teaching, one of the elements that teachers need to
consider is selecting learning experiences. This learning experience is being defined as
any interaction, course, program, or other experience in which learning occurs, whether
it occurs in traditional settings or non- traditional settings or whether it includes
traditional educational interactions or non-traditional interactions.
In this lesson, you will be able to learn Edgar Dale's Cone of Experiences and how
these experiences are used in the classroom.

Abstraction
Cone of experience is a visual model, a pictorial device that
presents bands of experience arranged according to the degree of
abstraction and not degree of difficulty. The farther you go from the
bottom of the cone, the more abstract the experience becomes (Corpuz &
Lucido, 2015).
In addition, the Cone of Experiences stands for the experiences that are fluid,
extensive, and continually interact (Dale, 1969). This means that the learning experiences
can overlap or sometimes may be combined. For example, the use of Video in the class is
considered one experience, but this also uses audio and visual experiences.
So, what are the bands of experiences in Dale's Cone of Experiences? Let us discuss
each experience, and we will start from the bottom to the top of the cone.
Now, I want you to analyze this experience "It was only when I went to Manila
Zoo that I learned that a giraffe is that tall and an elephant is that big." How did the
narrator learn the concept based on her experience? The narrator learned the concept
because of the experience she had when he went to the zoo. This means that she was able
to see the giraffe at her eye and conclude how tall the giraffe was. This experience is called
DIRECT PURPOSEFUL EXPERIENCES. This is the firsthand experience that serves as
the foundation of learning. We are able to build learning through our senses, the sense of
lOMoARcPSD|12140036
sight, hear, touch, smell, and taste. Basically, this learning experience can also be termed
as learning by doing. So, if you want your students to be able to learn how to bake a cake;
they shall perform how to bake a cake.
Try to analyze this statement, "if you could not bring Mohammad to the mountain,
bring the mountain to Mohammad." So how can this statement be true in teaching and
learning? That's where the Contrived Experience comes in. This type of experience in
which the teacher will use representations of reality so that students may be able to
perceive and understand the reality. Some of the contrived experiences are models,
mocks up, models, specimens, objects, simulations, and games.
The next band is the Dramatization. In this type of experience, students can
participate in a reconstructed experience, even though the original event is far
removed from us in time. Some experiences under this band are stage play, role-
playing, tableau, puppet shows, and pageants.
Learning does come from the four corners of the classroom, and sometimes it is
beneficial if we allow students to go out because there is some information that we can
get outside the walls of the classroom. This is the reason why field trips are part of the
band of experiences. Field trips or study trips are excursions, educational trips, and visits
conducted to observe an unavailable event within the classroom.
TV and motion pictures are widely used learning experiences in the teaching-
learning process. This can reconstruct the past's reality so effectively that we are made to
feel we are there. The unique value of the messages communicated by the film and TV
lies in their feeling of realism, their emphasis on persons and personality, their organized
presentation, and their ability to select, dramatize, highlight, and clarify.
Still pictures, recordings, and radio are visual and auditory learning
experiences used in solo or a group. Still picture has no sound and motion, but it can
give realism as it shows reality. While recordings and radio lack visual and motion,
students can best learn when they hear it.
Verbal symbols placed at the top of the Cone of Experiences. This learning
experience does not contain visual clues to their meaning. Written words fall under
this category. It may be a word for a concrete object like books, an idea like speeches,
a scientific principle, and a formula.
lOMoARcPSD|12140036
1. Use different instructional materials to help the learner conceptualize his/ her
experiences.
2. Do not start teaching with a symbolic level without an adequate foundation of the
concrete.
3. When teaching, don't get stuck in the concrete. Make sure that you also allow the
students to the abstract level for them to develop their higher-order thinking skills.
APPLICATION If you teach a lesson the meaning of, ½, and ¼, how will you proceed if
you follow the pattern in Dale's Cone of Experience beginning with the
concrete moving toward the abstract? Write your answer on the space
provided.

Introduction
In the beginning of the new era where technology becomes a necessary part of
peoples' lives, specifically for students' lives beyond school, and even in the classroom,
it can develop their understanding of complex concepts or promote collaboration
among peers. This benefit of technology recommends that the implementation of
technology in the classroom is indeed essential.
In this lesson, you will learn the relationship between each element of the TPACK
and how this principle can be used in the teaching-learning process.
Activity
Read and analyze the scenario below. After, answer the question
next to the text.
In a science class, teacher Ana showed a short video clip to introduce her lesson
about the process of photosynthesis. After the video presentation, she proceeded to
engage the class in an open discussion about what they have learned from the
material. To her surprise, the whole class is passive and did not show interest to
express their reactions or their thoughts and even to raise questions about what
they have seen in the video. The class claimed that the concept of the
photosynthesis as shown in the video is too complex for them to understand.
Teacher Ana went home quite unhappy with the result of using technology to
deliver her lesson. She believes that she tried her best to use technology in teaching,
and even went to the extent of asking help from her co-teacher to download the
material and have it ready for class presentation.
2. Classify the problem and cite other interrelated issues and concerns in the use of
technology, teaching strategy, and teacher's technology skills as you observed in the
scenario?
3. Suggest several solutions to the problems and to the other issues and concerns you
have identified in the scenario.
Analysis
ABSTRACTION
The TPACK is a technology integration framework that
determines three types of knowledge instructors need to associate
for successful educational technology. This combination of
knowledge includes Technological Knowledge, Pedagogical
Knowledge, and Content Knowledge. TPACK is sometimes
compared in SAMR Model, but it is different in terms of its scope
(Rodgers, 2018).
lOMoARcPSD|12140036
Try to look at the diagram below, how does each element of the TPACK relate to
each other?
The Diagram shows the interrelationship of the element of the TPACK. At the
center of the framework is the complex interplay of three primary forms of knowledge.
These forms include Content (CK), Pedagogy (PK), and Technology (TK). The TPACK
framework is more than just knowledge isolation; it goes further by emphasizing the
kinds of knowledge that lie at the intersections of the three primary forms. These three
primary forms include Pedagogical Content Knowledge (PCK), Technological Content
Knowledge (TCK), Technological Pedagogical Knowledge (TPK), and Technological
Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK).
Content Knowledge (CK). This element talks about the teacher's knowledge of the
subject matter to be learned or taught. CK includes knowledge of concepts, theories,
evidence, and organizational frameworks within a particular subject matter. So, is CK
similar to all discipline and grade levels? The answer is NO! CK will also differ
according to discipline and grade level. For example, teaching Science, Mathematics,
English, and TLE at elementary and secondary levels is different from teaching at the
undergraduate or graduate level. Since the former requires less detail and scope
compared to the undergraduate and graduate. Teachers may have different CK
knowledge, or the CK that each class imparts to its students will differ.
Pedagogical Knowledge (PK). This element of TPACK explains teachers' knowledge and
skills on teaching processes, practices, and methods used in teaching and learning. As
a general form of knowledge, PK covers the purposes, values, and goals of education
and may apply to more specific areas, including understanding student learning styles,
classroom management skills, lesson planning, and assessments.
In the diagram above, you have noticed that TPACK results from the combinations
of the five elements. The TPACK will help you to become effective in using technology
as a tool for teaching and learning. For you to make use of the TPACK effectively, you
should be open to specific key ideas. These ideas include the following:
1. with the use of technology, concepts of a certain subject matter can be taught
effectively;
2. with the use of technology, pedagogical techniques can be delivered in
creative and different ways;
3. with the help of technology, the differences of the students in learning the
concepts can be addressed;
4. in utilizing technology in teaching, students' background shall be
considered; and
5. educational technology can be used in pair with students' existing knowledge,
helping them either strengthen prior epistemologies or develop new ones.
APPLICATION
Make your own version or your own model of TPACK Model based on your
own understanding of the lesson. Explain why you chose that model. The
following will be the basis in making your model.

LESSON
3
Objectives: This lesson aims to use SAMR model of technology integration in designing instructional
activities with an expectation that the students are able to:
discuss the SAMR model in the use and design of technology driven learning lessons;
explain the different concepts and/or levels of the SAMR model of technology integration
using samples of a typical classroom; and
provide applications of the SAMR model of technology in learning to the usual classroom
scenarios.
Introduction
As technology's role becomes significant, its role in education also becomes more relevant. From
being just simple storage that facilitates efficiency in the accessibility of resources to being a significant
tool in designing educational outputs, technology offers various benefits that educators and learners
cannot refuse. Most of the educational tasks take much time if technology will not be used in the process.
Being in the teaching industry, it is necessary to know how to use technology at varying levels of
technology integration.
In this lesson, you will learn how technology will be integrated by considering its role in your
learners' educational activities through the SAMR model.
Hi! It’s time to review to what extent do you utilize technology. The list below is
composed of four questions that will clarify how do you use technology in your academic
tasks. In answering each item, make sure you include one concrete example of your
ACTIVITY experiences.
1. Have you used technology to substitute your involvement from a task? How?
2. Have you used technology to improve the quality of a task compare to your own work without it? How?
3. Have you used technology to make significant changes from the tasks you usually do? How?
4. Have you used technology to something which you have never done without its use? How?
lOMoARcPSD|12140036
After completing your work above, answer the questions below as guide for
reflective thinking. Use the space after each question to discuss your answer.
ANALYSIS
1. How often do you use technology? What purpose usually makes you decide to use technology in
accomplishing your tasks?
2. Among the four guide questions above, on what question do you feel that you definitely agree on
the statement? Why?
3. What do you think is the best way of using technology in the classroom?
Although teachers like you are encouraged to help learners move beyond the enhancement stage,
it should also be remembered that the SAMR model is a spectrum rather than a ladder. This does not
mean that the redefinition level is the best choice for a particular lesson. Some lessons need the
replacement of traditional tools to technological tools. Some lessons need technology to experience
learning, which is not
lOMoARcPSD|12140036
possible without its use. As a teacher, you need to be skillful enough to discern what degree should be
focused on and design it for the instructional process.
Some academic situations can be applied using the SAMR model of technology integration. The
list is presented below.
Go to https://www.deped.gov.ph/k-to-12/about/k-to-12-basic-education-

Introduction
Of all the organs in our body, the brain is the most mysterious. This organ has had
many studies on how it functions and misconceptions on how it shapes us to learn, but it
is undoubtedly the center of all human activities. Right now, many fields of science can
accurately explain what happens when brains engage in thinking.
As future teachers, your very concern is your learners’ learning—
understanding how metacognition works establish a good start in learning how the
thinking process works. Through learning metacognition, you will be able to learn
different ways how your learners understand and process ideas. With this, you may
design effective learning activities that will address their metacognitive skills; and
eventually, achieve learning.
In this lesson, you will be able to learn the pedagogy of learning and the role of
technology in supporting the learning process.

1. How are the words you found relate in the field of education?
2. Based on the words you have found, is education being referred to as traditional
or modern? Why do you think so?
3. What do you think these words do in improving the system of education today?
Abstraction
Thinking is an active process in the brain. When one’s brain is
damaged, thinking is greatly affected. Also, a person being called
“brainy” has good intellectual attributes. This is because the brain holds
an ecosystem of neurons, circuits, networks, and brain areas that produce
pulses through a multi-layered feedback loops in a synchronized
oscillating firing pattern. Sustained firing brings information to the
“working” (short-term) memory. When attended to, this information will be stored
longer.
lOMoARcPSD|12140036
For the psychologists, however, thinking is expressed based in the following thoughts:
Since thinking is a very intrinsic process that is hard to observe, understanding the
thinking process paves way for teachers, like you, to account its connection to
learning. As part of humans’ everyday process, learning helps them improve by
showing observable changes in their behavior, skills, attitudes, and perceptions. With the
growing importance of observing learning, scholars have been debated on its definition.
Here are some of the ideas they believed is the definition of learning.
Pavlov, one of the most famous theorists that made impact in the field of
education, highlighted that learning takes place through conditioning. This can be done
using either of the two processes:
Classical conditioning – In this, learning is based on the how the learners will
respond to the particular object presented for them. In Pavlov’s study on the
dog, the bell, and the food, the ringing of the bell followed by the food makes
the dog salivate whenever a bell is rung. With this, learning is a reaction to an
environmental cue that will tell you what happen next to your learners.
Operant conditioning – In this, learning is strengthened using rewards and
punishment. In Skinner’s study, a rat placed in a cage knows that whenever it
presses a button, a food comes out and when it steps of to something, it will be
electrocuted. So as a teacher, you will know that a good behavior of the
learners should be rewarded and bad behavior will be given a punishment.
Understanding the learning styles of your learners is also something that you
should remember. Learning style is a learners’ preference on how they learn best. Until
now, studies are still on-going as what really are the learning styles of a learner. The
latest findings, however, included seven styles of learning presented in the next page.
But as you look into it, you can see that these are just anchored based on Gardner’s
Multiple Intelligences.
lOMoARcPSD|12140036
A fun and effective school should engage their learners in an active thinking and
learning processes. In respond to this, differentiated instructions have been integrated in
some academic institutions. To be able to know how to diversify your classes in order to
cater how your learners learn, identifying their learning styles is a very helpful stepping
stone. In the appendix, you get to know your own learning style, and details on your task
well be presented. For now, these are the instructional implementations of each learning
style of your learners.
Solitary
These learners are strong-
willed and independent. Fun
of working alone, they do well
in self-paced instructions and
can deepen their reflection as
they learn concepts.
lOMoARcPSD|12140036
The learning styles described above shows how learners vary considerably. As
future teachers, you need to understand that your learners may manifest two or three
learning styles, and you have to be creative enough in addressing their learning styles
as their learning strengths. With the aid of technology, your teaching pedagogy will be
widened enough as you design instructional plans in making your learners learn
effectively.
APPLICATION Select one competency in your specialization from Grade 7-10, and create
one learning task with the use of technology that will make you consider each of the
learning style discussed. Place all your answers in spaces below. Make sure that you

This lesson aims to present instructional design models that support
technological intervention with an expectation that the students are able to:
Introduction
Part of your academic freedom is deciding how your class will go based on how
you understand your learners, your previous experiences in learning, and the content
of your lesson as provided by your curriculum. To effectively plan what to do in your
class, you have to be equipped with the different ways on selecting what you think is
best for your learners. Because when you are not skilled enough in planning your
instructions, there may be a tendency that you may observe a very healthy and
interactive class, but learners cannot deepen their knowledge and may result to
learners’ poor assessment performances. It is important to remember that to
instructional plans are varied, you still need to ensure that learning will be the bottom
of everything.
In this lesson, you will be able to learn the importance of instructional planning
along with the different instructional models you can use in your future instructional
design..
Activity
Hi! It’s time to learn from a teacher’s experience. Interview any teacher
you know – may it be your teacher in the school, your friend, you relative, etc.
Ask them how they plan for their lesson, starting from their preparation up to their
assessment. Place your answers on the guide questions below. List all the
important points you learned in your interview.
What do you before the day’s session? What do you do at the start of the lesson?
lOMoARcPSD|12140036

lesson?
Analysis
After completing your work above, answer the questions below as guide for
reflective thinking. Use the space after each question to discuss your answer.
1. What are the general ideas you have to remember in designing your lesson?
3. How did learning a teacher’s implementation in their daily lesson helped you in
honing yours?
ABSTRACTION
Planning a lesson is never an easy task. It stretches from the
moment you know what to teach to your learners to the time you
evaluate how much your learners have learned. As teachers, you
really have to equip yourself on the different ways how to design
your instruction. With the many definitions and ideas about
instructional design, it can be summed up into this one.
ASSURE Model
Unlike the ADDIE Model, the ASSURE Model is an instructional design model
that is exclusively made for educational application. The ASSURE Model, as shown in
the next page, was developed by Hainrich and Molenda in 1999. This model was first
made to make an effective teaching-learning process. And now, it serves as guide for
you to plan and conduct your instruction using the different technological aids in
learning.
lOMoARcPSD|12140036
As mentioned, the ADDIE Model and ASSURE Model are somewhat similar when we consider
on its application. The table below illustrates an instructional process of integrating technology in the
class anchored to the two models.
Based on the instructional situations presented on the table, the activities can be chunked to fit on
the levels of Hannafin and Peck Design Models. The needs assessment part is the analysis part of both
models will fit on these levels. The design part covers the rest of the planning stage. The development and
implementation part concerns on the conduct of the lesson including the assessment. Although it is a 3-
level model of instructional design, the evaluation and revision is done immediately. If you noticed that
your learners are not engaging, you can immediately change what you have been planned and not wait for
their low test scores to implement these changes. In this way, evaluation and revision has been part of the
product, not just a product.
APPLICATION
Refer to the information you have gathered on the activity part. Select
one instructional design model in which you think fits the teacher’s
implementation of instructional best. Discuss why you chose that instructional
design model. Then, identify what part of the implementation fits to the different
level/stage of the instructional design model you have chosen. Place your
answers on the template below.
Since your childhood days, you were exposed that learning takes place in the corners of your
teachers’ classroom. Though a very true thought, you also have learned that these are not the only places
that learning takes place. The traditional idea of education where teachers and learners are interacting in
the classroom setting has gradually phased out. Aside from the school and the classroom, are there any
places that you expect your learners to learn in a meaningful manner? And with the classic views towards
classrooms, how can you design your classroom in order to offer varied learning opportunities to explore,
discover, and make a meaningful learning?
In this lesson, you will be able to learn the different principles of a constructivist learning
environment and how will your role and the technology impacts learning constructively.
ACTIVITY Hi! It’s time to design your own classroom. Based on your experiences as a
learner, the demands of your specialization, and the classroom activities you’re thinking,
design your own classroom. Complete the phrase based on what you want with your
classroom, then your it on the space in the next page. You may label your drawing.

lOMoARcPSD|12140036
After
completing your work above, answer the questions below as guide for
reflective thinking. Use the space after each question to discuss your answer.
ANALYSIS
1. What considerations did you observed in designing your classroom? Are these important
considerations? Why or why not?
2. Do you think your class allows your learners to engage and create learning? Why do
you think so?
3. What is your role in this classroom? Is that role help your learners optimize their learning?
Why do you think so?
ABSTRACTION
Learning environment refers to the various physical settings, cultures, and contexts in
which learners’ learning is achieved. This idea stretches more than what the traditional concept of
classroom, but also includes outside-of-school locations. Also, school culture is also given importance in
this definition that includes the learners’ interaction and your instructional plans to facilitate learning.
lOMoARcPSD|12140036
Effectively engaging your learners in your learning environment may be likely attained in a
“constructivist learning environment”. As discussed in Bruner’s constructivist theory, learners construct
new knowledge based on their existing knowledge and experience. As leaning is constructed and not
transmitted, learners should be actively engaged in problem solving and exploration of a more difficult
situation through healthy and supported social interaction.
To clearly visualize and apply constructivist perspective in a learning environment, the table
below shows a comparison between traditional and constructivist classroom.

Teacher directs the class. Teacher’s role is negotiated and interactive.
lOMoARcPSD|12140036
Assessment is testing with correct answers. Assessment includes process based on learners’
works, observations, and points of view.
As learning in the constructivist classroom is open, the use of technology is very likely. As users
of technology, you can really see that these technologies have the features and capabilities in supporting
learning. There are applications that will require learners’ critical thinking and meaning making skills in
the process of building new knowledge and skills. They can also explore more of what they have learned
and discover the world and its relationship through updated information.
Moreover, social media supports social interaction by you and your learners online. Each of the
tools in these technologies help learners to work in collaboration with their classmates in order to
exchange relevant ideas, guide other’s queries, and solve difficult problems.
Upon learning how these technologies work in the class, you have to make sure that as a teacher,
you also have the constructivist perspective towards teaching and learning. The roles of a teacher in a
constructivist classroom listed below will likely help you:
Teachers can be an expert learner who can guide learning in learning cognitive strategies
such as asking probing questions, articulating understanding, and self-reflection.
Teachers can be an organizer of information of learners’ big ideas through assisting them in
making new insights and connecting them to their previous learning.
Teachers can be designer of learner-centered learning activities that will engage them in
asking own questions, carrying out experiments, and making conclusions.
Teachers can be a mentor and coach in helping them sustain their motivation towards learning.

ICT and Conventional Learning Materials to Enhance Teaching and Learning
Principles in Selecting Instructional Materials
Technology-Enhanced Learning Lesson Plans
A classroom is a worthwhile place in which a teacher, like you, and the learners get to learn from
each other. Years ago, this classroom can be described as a place where a teacher establishes authority
and shares knowledge while the learners are trained to be disciplined, intellectual, and skillful. These
learnings are purely based on the teachers’ knowledge obtain from the references and experiences
throughout their life in the educational field. However, now’s a big difference. Learning does not depend
on the teacher anymore. Instead, your job, as a teacher, exposes these learners to a wide array of learning
opportunities, which were made reachable through the use of effective materials and instructional
planning.
This module gives you ways on how to effectively conduct your instruction with the aid of the
diverse instructional materials that offer learners the opportunity to engage and contextualize their
learning experiences.
After the completion of this module, you are expected to:
1. show ICT and conventional learning materials that will suit for the teaching and learning
process;
2. follow the important considerations in using and evaluating instructional materials; and
3. design learning plans that incorporates learning materials for a worthwhile learning experience.
Objectives:
This lesson aims to expose the different ICT and conventional learning materials that enhances
the learning experiences with an expectation that students are able to:
explain the difference of digital learning resources and conventional learning resources;
discuss the different digital and conventional materials used in the teaching-learning process;
and
select appropriate ICT and conventional learning materials designed to enhance the teaching
and learning process.
Introduction:
Welcome to Lesson 1 Module 5.
Learning is not solely a talking process where learners just understand what the teacher discusses.
Learning is a combination of a teachers’ appropriate pedagogies, accurate and contextualized content, and
relevant and engaging learning materials. Although it is not given much emphasis on some teachers, it
can’t be denied that the latter has definitely supported experiences that learners cannot access on their
own. Moreover, the latter provides opportunities for learners to bridge between teaching and learning. So
as a teacher, being exposed with the various instructional materials you can use for your future process
allows you to offer diverse opportunities for learners to explore.
In this lesson, you will be able to learn the different kinds of ICT and conventional teaching and
learning materials that the learners can explore with for your future classes.
Hi! It’s time to relate an experience and rate how it went. Based on the topics and
educational outcomes given below, discuss how those were taught to you by your
teachers (or even your parents and tutors). Then on the space beside it, rate the
effectiveness of those
methods from 1 to 5. In rating, 1 is the lowest and 5 is the highest.

1. Based on your experience, does your teacher (parents or tutor) used instructional material? How
did he/she/they used it?
2. Were he/she/they successful in integrating those materials? What made you say so?
3. Do you think your learning improves if instructional materials are used? Why do you think so?
Abstraction:
As teaching and learning becomes very diverse throughout the times, the use of teaching and
learning materials promote and improve learning even. These materials may be resources to present and
transmit the prescribed educational materials to facilitate the creation and organization of information
among the learners. In utilizing these materials in your class, you have to remember the common goals in
order to consider your learners.
Learners’ motivation
Development of creativity
Retrieval of prior knowledge
Support learners in understanding, deconding, organizing, and synthesizing educational
knowledge, logical thinking and reasoning, communication, and interaction
Contribution to the development of various skills and the acquisition of values of the learners,
as well as adherence towards learners’ desirable knowledge, skills, and attitudes
The teaching and learning materials are grouped into two – the ICT and conventional materials.
ICT materials utilize technological media in delivering knowledge and engaging learners throughout the
teaching and learning process; while conventional materials are used by the teachers and the learners for
many times already, even before the advent of technological media.
The list below presents the types of ICT teaching and learning materials.

Aside from the teaching and learning tools, you also need to integrate classroom activities and
experiences for your learners. In these activities, you may utilize ICT or conventional tools to support
your instructional goals. Still, the discussion follows the bands of Dale’s Cone of Experience.
Games – Games are interesting activities that
facilitates engagement and interest from your
learners. Learners do have benefits in this activity,
which are given below:
o Learners will be able to practice and refine
knowledge which they have already
acquired.
o Learners can determine the gaps in their
knowledge or skills.
o Learners will be given a summary of
contents based on the coverage of the game.
o Learners will be able to socially interact as they develop the concepts and principle
involved.
Simulations – These are representations of a real event in
which learners can assume the roles of those involved
in the scenario by learning their behavior or applying
what they have learned. Conducting fire and
earthquake drills are some samples of this. The following
are some purposes of conducting simulation activities
in the class:
o to work with learners’ changes in attitudes
o to alter specific behaviors
o to help learners ready themselves in taking
new roles in the society
o to guide learners in understanding their role
o to increase learners’ way of applying learning
o to reduce complex problems to manageable situations
o to sensitize learners’ towards other peoples’ lives
Dramatized experiences range from the following types listed below.
o Plays exhibits life, character, or culture,
or the combination of both in one
presentation. Learners portray a clear and
important aspects about life. On the other
hand, pageants are communities dramas
based on history as presented by local
actors.
Application:
There are different ways on how to conduct teaching and learning activities along with the tools
to be used in these activities. However, one has to remember that you have the very important decision on
what to use based on the objectives of your lesson, the availability of resources, and the abilities of your
learners.
With that, you may work in this part to identify what you think is the learning activity to be
integrated and the learning material to be used in your class as you realize the given objectives. Place
your answer in the corresponding spaces.

Objectives:
This lesson aims to offer a guide how instructional materials are selected and evaluated before
being used in a classroom setting with an expectation that the students are able to:
discuss the different principles in selecting instructional materials used in the classroom;
explain how to use instructional materials in the teaching-learning process; and
observe the principles in selecting instructional materials in designing those for the classroom
instruction.
Introduction:
Welcome to Lesson 2 Module 5.
Using technology throughout your subject exhibits your adept skill as a teacher when it comes to
your technological advancement in designing of learning activities for your learners. However, that does
not mean that your learners will also learn the lesson as much as you exerted effort for your learning
activities. Maybe the content requires you to use traditional artifacts or models to make the learners feel a
real or contrived experience of the concept. Maybe the content also requires an involvement of the expert
of a certain field which you can provide yourself. Maybe the content just wants a performance that the
technology cannot facilitate. Maybe you have failed to consider something just because you are so
engrossed in one learning opportunity that you think works based on how it worked for you when are still
on your learners’ shoes.
In this lesson, you will be able to anchor principles and ideas in selecting and evaluating
instructional materials for your learners in your future classes.
From the conversation, Linus said that “It was a real field, and we saw it … we saw that field”. What senses
were at work in the field? Are these enough? Why do you say so?
Did the field trip accomplish something specific for Linus? Why do you say so?

An intelligent teacher is a very good step towards making your learners learned, but this does not
guarantee of successfully making them learned. One thing you have to remember is you can be able to
design instructional process in which learners can successfully engage and construct learning. This can be
facilitated when you know how to use your instructional materials as support to your teaching and
learning activities.
To begin with, it is very helpful to orient yourselves how to select instructional materials before
you decide to use this in your class. The following questions may be a helpful guide to you.

Lesson Plans
Objectives:
This lesson aims to prepare you in designing an instructional interaction using appropriate
instructional materials with an expectation that the students are able to:
explain the components of a 4A’s and 5E’s lesson exemplar, and its importance in the
teaching and learning process; and
craft a technology-enhanced teaching lesson exemplar.
Introduction:
Welcome to Lesson 3 Module 5.
The very important skill of a teacher is to be able to design an interactive and engaging, relevant
and informative, and lively and welcoming class. This skill requires planning on what important elements
to consider, and one of this is the inclusion of instructional materials. As a teacher, you are expected to
exhibit efficiency when it comes to planning your future lessons with consideration to your content, and
how to deliver your content through your instructional activities and learning materials. In this way, you
and the learners will be guided on what to do throughout the session and what to expect after the learning
experience.
In this lesson, you will be able to craft lesson plans using the 4A’s and 5E’s format along with the
integration of the learning materials you will use for your lesson.
Activity: “Share your Ways”
Hi! It’s time to be a teacher. Imagine the things done by a teacher. In this activity, select
one competency in your specialized field and design a one-day session in order to realize

Assignment
Analysis:
After completing your work above, answer the questions below as guide for
reflective thinking. Use the space after each question to discuss your answer.
1. What are your considerations as you designed your lesson plan?
3. Is your plan important before conducting your lesson? Why do you think so?
Abstraction:
A lesson plan is your road map of what your learners have to acquire at the end of the session and
your ways of how you will guide them to effectively learn what is expected from them. Lesson planning
allows you to explore pedagogical aspects in teaching the content. By this, you can deeply think on how
to design the lesson in a way that learners can relate using activities that learners can engage. Finally, this
will also give you a reflection on how you can improve yourself to provide the best understanding for
your learners. The following items below further discuss the importance of lesson planning.
lOMoARcPSD|12140036
In making the lesson plan, the first thing to remember is your learning competency. You have to
identify what learning competency to use for that specific day. Make sure that the competency you will
use is corresponded to the competency to be taught on that day as reflected on the competency code.
Second, you have to make the learning objectives based on the learning competency. It is
encouraged to craft objectives for each domain of learning – cognitive, psychomotor, and affective. In
crafting your objectives, make sure that it can be attained for that specific lesson plan.
Third, identify the topic based on the competency you adopted and the learning materials and
references to be used. In this way, you can prepare the things you needed for lesson prior to your
instruction with your learners.
Fourth, plan for your learning procedure. In this process, you have to adopt the lesson planning
format that is used by your institution. Usually, the most common lesson planning format is the 4A’s
which standards for ACTIVITY/IES, ANALYSIS, ABSTRACTION, and APPLICATION (also known as
5A’s that includes the last part, which is ASSESSMENT) here in the Philippines. The discussion below
provides a guide on how these components are designed.
Activity: This is the part of the lesson that conditions learners for the instruction. You have two
types of activities in this part.
o Preliminary activities should be done to monitor attendance, do class routines, and even
motivate learners to learn. Motivational activities are activities which are not related to
the class, but may be conducted to break an awkward atmosphere. Usually, this will take
less than 5 minutes of the time Icebreakers are often done in this.
o Preparatory activities are done to establish prior knowledge from the students. These
activities are essential for the learners to retrieve important information that will bridge
what they have learned before to what they will be learning on that session. These
activities may utilize contents discussed on the previous sessions or those discussed on
the previous grade levels, or can be their own personal experiences. You may have just
one, two, or more activities in this part as long as it will consume a maximum of 20
minutes of your instructional time.
Note: You won’t use concepts in this part that are yet to be taught.
Analysis: This is the part of the lesson that makes sense to the series of activities done. As a
teacher, you will ask a series of questions that will allow learners to think and highlight those
important information that they will be using for the content of the lesson. This is the part where
your questioning techniques matter in order for the learners to effectively retrieve their prior
knowledge and bridge these to the lesson. If ever your questions will not be properly understood
by the learners or will yield out-of-the-box responses, you may simplify it or use probing
questions. This makes your role as a facilitator, or guide, for learners to construct their own
knowledge. Usually, this part takes 5 minutes of your time.
Abstraction: This is the part of the lesson where you will present the content of the lesson based
on your references. But for you to relate these contents, you may refer more often to your activity
and analysis part so that they can bridge the new knowledge to their existing knowledge.
Moreover, most, if not all, of the learning objectives are achieved in this part. By this time, you
will provide important information about the topic. However, you may filter some of those if you
want learners to explore more in the next section. Usually, this will take 5 to 10 minutes of your
time.
Application: This is the part of the lesson that broadens learners’ new knowledge. In order for
this knowledge to make sense, you have to make sure that learners can apply these knowledge in
their own field or can observe in their own setting. You can do this by exposing them to various
examples
lOMoARcPSD|12140036
or designing another activity that they can apply in on their own reflection or work with
classmates as they do mini-tasks about this knowledge. Usually, this may take 15-20 minutes of
your instructional time.
Fifth, design assessment tasks in order to know if your objectives are met. As a teacher, you are
guided by your learning objectives, so knowing if learners have achieved this is an important testament to
tell if you succeed in your instruction or not. Since only a little time is left in this part, you may design
short assessment tasks like quizzes, oral recitation, or boardwork just to measure learners’ achievement of
the objectives.
Sixth, you may consider giving an assignment or agreement to your class. Assignment as tasks
that will require extended practice for your learners about what they have learned in your session, while
agreement is something that learners have to work on for the next session. Agreement is necessary
especially for contents that need lots of preparation and prior knowledge to familiarize with.
Application:
Refer to the sample lesson plan below, along with some discussions on how is was arranged that
way.

MODULE SUMMARY
assessment.
As teaching and learning becomes very diverse throughout the times, the use of teaching and
learning materials promote and improve learning even.
In utilizing these materials in your class, you have to consider your learners first and foremost.
The teaching and learning materials are grouped into two – the ICT and conventional materials.
ICT materials utilize technological media in delivering knowledge and engaging learners
throughout the teaching and learning process; while conventional materials are used by the
teachers and the learners for many times already, even before the advent of technological media.
ICT teaching and learning materials may come as educational networking, web-based learning,
mobile learning, and classroom equipment.
The different conventional materials for teaching and learning includes realia, model, mock-up,
specimens and objects, drawings and cartoon, and diagrams, charts, graphs, and maps.
Aside from the teaching and learning tools, you also need to integrate classroom activities and
experiences for your learners which includes games, simulations, dramatized experiences,
demonstrations, gallery walks and exhibits, and film or video viewing.
It is very helpful to orient yourselves how to select instructional materials before you decide to
use this in your class.
Hayden Smith and Thomas Nagel provided the acronym PPPF ensure effective use of
instructional materials in the teaching and learning process, which stands for prepare yourself,
prepare your learners, present the material, and follow up.
A lesson plan is your road map of what your learners have to acquire at the end of the session and
your ways of how you will guide them to effectively learn what is expected from them.
Lesson planning allows you to explore pedagogical aspects in teaching the content.
Lesson planning gives you a reflection on how you can improve yourself to provide the best
understanding for your learners.
Lesson planning has important procedures to follow which range from identifying the learning
competency to be used until providing assessment and assignment tasks for the learners.
The most common lesson planning format is the 4A’s which standards for ACTIVITY/IES,
ANALYSIS, ABSTRACTION, and APPLICATION (also known as 5A’s that includes the last
part, which is ASSESSMENT) here in the Philippines.
