Submitted by:
Implementing the DepEd's mandate for formal basic education means giving
the students ample instruction time and ensuring that the policies, plans, programs,
and projects are monitored by establishing goals and objectives that are consistent
with the DepEd Mission and Vision.
To discover their full potential that may contribute for the betterment of the
society?
In order for learners to reach their full potential, they must first understand the
value of the learning process and how it may improve both individuals' lives and society as
a whole. Teachers must therefore find a means to get to the emotional area of their
students, which they might do by giving them tasks that are relevant to their interests and
needs.
I simply need to make my students the heart of my teaching and learning process. I
will make sure that my classroom discussion is suitable to all my learners by being
aware of their needs, differences, goals, wants, and aspirations in life. I must practice
the learner centered philosophy that would greatly help me to impose the right way of
applying this certain philosophy. I plan to create a classroom environment wherein I
will be the one to facilitate the learning and the students are the primary source of the
information.
5. My Philosophy in Teaching
State briefly your philosophy in teaching which spells your vision in entering
the teaching profession towards effective, learner-centered and meaningful
teaching experience. It must be something you believe that will drive you to
success and to being a meaningful agent of change to students and your
community.
I believe that all learners are entitled of quality education regardless of their
status in life. This is the sole reason why I want to promote quality education
and make it accessible to everyone
6. Vision Sharing (write your vision and share your thoughts about it
to your co-teacher)
VISION Sharing
I can see that they already graduates equipped with the skills that they
need in the real-world. Some are already starting to establish their names in their
chosen path, and some are already successful.
Mandate Strategic
Directions
9. Realigning of Personal Vision to DepEd’s Mandate, VMV and Strategic
Directions
B. Reflection
After going through this lesson, (DepEd Mandate, Vision, Mission, Core Values,
and Strategic Directions), answer in your journal the following questions:
1. In what concrete ways has this session helped you become a more
agentive teacher in promoting “learner-centered” teaching?
It made me realize that we should always look at students as the main
thing in teaching, we should make them the heart of the teaching-
learning process. It helped me to understand more about learner-
centered strategy. I learned that I should practice it most of the time so
that I can let my students think outside the box.
2. How has this session helped you clarify your vision and motive in
serving your learners better and in promoting a learner-centered
environment for them?
This session has helped me clarify my vision and motive to the learner-
centered philosophy. It has taught me to align my instructional delivery to
the needs of my learners.
4. What are your personal beliefs and values that are aligned with the
DepEd’s VMV?
I believe in the essence of helping other people. I think that is
my belief that is very align to Deped’s VMV. To constantly help other
people to have a better nation for all Filipinos.
A newly hired teacher like me have to be familiar that it was the act which
instituted a framework of governance for basic education, establishing authority
and accountability, renaming the Department of Education, Culture and Sports
as the Department of Education, and For Other Purposes.
2. Why do think that RA 9155 states that, “The school shall be the heart of
the formal education system?” Cite specific conditions.
The school shall be the heart of the formal education system for it is
where the teaching-learning process takes place. Although learning takes
place in different situations. School is still the heart of formal education
because teachers are there to explain and let student understand what is
wrong from right. For instance, if a student saw people stealing and they
don’t have idea that it is wrong possibility is they will follow it but if they
can go to school and teacher can explain that stealing is bad then student
will not do it. School is the main source of education.
3. Identify the best practices in your school that adhere to the existing
laws and regulations stated on RA 9155. Make a checklist and share it
with your colleagues.

Journal Writing. Share your thoughts on the following:
1. What is a profession?
A profession is an occupation that involves specialized training and
formal qualification.
3. What are the requisites by the PRC one should satisfy before he/she
becomes a professional?
A professional teacher must have a deep understanding of the theoretical
knowledge about learning and human behavior.
A professional teacher demonstrates attitudes that foster learning and
genuine human relationship.
A professional teacher must have a mastery of the subject matter.
A professional teacher must possess competencies in the use of teaching skills
that facilitate student learning
5. What is a vocation?
A vocation is a calling to and from the heart of an individual.
10. Write how you manifest the first quality of a professional teacher.
My understanding of teaching and learning theories would be put to use as I
explained circumstances and dealt with issues I encountered in the classroom.
As a brand-new professional teacher, my issue is not that the ideas I have
learnt are unworkable, but rather that they are challenging to understand in
order to address real-world issues.
11. Write the attitude you have that foster learning and genuine human
relationship.
The major categories of attitudes that affect teacher behavior are (a)
teacher’s attitudes toward himself/herself; (b) teacher’s attitudes toward
children; (c) teacher’s attitudes toward peers, superiors, and parents; and
(d) teacher’s attitudes toward the subject.”

inside the class. I still need to improve in my classroom management skills
to better get a positive outcome.

Mr. Manalo divided his Araling Panlipunan class according to the abilities and
interests of his students. At the end of the lesson, the groups had the following
outputs: The first group composed a song, the second had a skit, and the third
had an artwork.
2. Situation 2

observed that Miss Bravo was reading from the textbook and her notes while
explaining the lesson on ecosystem.
What could have been done by Miss Bravo to improve her teaching
performance?
She could have mastered her lessons before delivering it to the class. A
thorough understanding of her subject matter is needed to have a substantial teaching
and learning process.
A. Reflection
As a newly hired teacher, I am already demonstrating the following
qualities: Having a caring Attitude, treating others with respect and integrity, have
commitment towards work, love of country, honesty, professionalism, punctuality,
service-oriented, competent. However, I need to improve my qualities in terms of
being considerate of some things with regards to time management.
B. Post-Test
Resolve the issue.
Is teaching more of a vocation or more of a profession?
Teaching is more than a noble profession. It is a vocation, a calling. It does
not only revolve around teaching a subject matter, but teaching a student. It is
putting in mind and heart that teachers are not just after the grades of the
students, but they are into their betterment. It is more of being catalysts of change-
transforming and touching the lives of each and every learner that one may
encounter.
Thus, it is not just about coming to work and such. It is being one with your
work and your learners. It is doing everything that you can to fulfill your promise
as a teacher. It’s making your profession your passion.
3. Is it possible for a beginning teacher to stay in 1 career stage for 5–10 years?
Why or why not?
Content knowledge and pedagogy, I consider this as the most
important among the seven domains for this must be achieved first before
anything else. One cannot be considered a teacher without having a mastery
of the subject matter that he is teaching.
C. What I Learned
What are the seven domains of the PPST? Discuss each domain briefly based on
your own understanding.
1. What is the difference between domains and strands, and strands and
indicators?
A vast conceptual area of instructional strategies is known as a domain.
A concrete indicator is a teacher behavior or practice that can be seen,
observed, and measured. Each domain has a more specialized dimension of
teacher practice called a strand.
D. What I Do
C. Read the following teaching practices. With all honesty, choose your
answer by ticking (/) the box that corresponds to your answer.
Indicators A S N
1.Demonstrates content knowledge and its application within and /or
across curriculum teaching areas
2.Shows skill in the positive use of ICT to facilitate the Teaching –
Learning Process
3.Demonstrates knowledge of strategies that promote reading and
numeracy skills
4.Applies teaching strategies that develop critical and creative thinking
and/or other higher order thinking skills
5. Demonstrates an understanding of the range of verbal and nonverbal
classroom communication strategies that support learner
understanding, participation, engagement, and achievement.
6.Uses Mother Tongue, Filipino, and English to facilitate teaching and
learning
7.Demonstrates understanding of research based knowledge and
principle of teaching and learning
D. What I Realize
1. What teaching practices do you think are responsive to the call of the
indicators in Domain 3 to address diversity of learners?
I think the following teaching strategies are in response to the
indicators in Domain 3: first, being adaptable, in the sense that
teachers will create a variety of activities just to meet the needs of the
diverse learners they have; and second, the strategy of being
respectful, in the sense that you will establish rules in your classroom
that take into account all of your students' cultures, religions, and
worldviews.
A. Reflection
As a teacher, what are the indicators under beginning stage that you can do?
Is it possible that you can move to the higher career stage? Knowing where you
are, what professional development goals could you prepare based on your
strength and areas for improvement?
I strongly believe that I can do all the indicators under the beginning stage
which fall under the content knowledge and pedagogy. It is indeed a basic and a must
for all the teachers to have the mastery of the subject matter that they are teaching. As
a teacher, I know that I can move to the higher career stage for I am doing everything
that I could to improve myself and my practices as a teacher. I attend seminars and
workshops which could help me to become an effective and efficient teacher. I also
plan to finish my graduate studies and be more engaged to activities which will surely
help me grow in my profession and as an individual.
Based on the results of the self-assessment tool, make a professional
development plan.
POSITION RANK
C. My Gains
There should be five other “stops” on the map, representing different key
concepts that could help or hamper your journey in achieving
professional development. They may be experiences that you have or have
yet to experience.
Record three major future events that you hope will happen on your road
map. Indicate on your map your age when you want these things to
happen. (Possible examples- graduating from graduate school, getting
promoted, implemented innovations, and improved teacher development
stage etc.)
The map should be in color! How you decorate and map out your
professional growth journey is up to you.
The first step is to sketch out your life map before you actually start the
project.
Use the space below to create a rough sketch.

B. Reflection
In the Department of Education, we are saddened to hear news of malpractices
of teachers in the profession. Let us uplift ourselves and our profession. Write
your commitment to complete the paragraph below.
Teachers should not stop at one point when it comes to professional growth and
development, we must be hungry for learning and continue to strive hard for
new informations that we can acquire and use it as a tool for us teachers to
improve our craft and provide quality education for our learners.
Teacher’s accountability
Activity 2. Study the following cases. Guided by your understanding of the Code
of Ethics for Professional Teachers (Appendix 1), identify the article and the
provision that can guide the teacher to come up with his best action. Write your
answers on the space provided in each number.
Case 1
Mr. Antonio B. Baguio received a complaint from the guardian of one of his
students regarding the grade of his daughter in English. Mr. Baguio listened
to the complaint of the guardian with sympathy and referred it to the
teacher concerned for clarification.

Case 2
During barangay fiesta, Mr. Ben Y. Maya, a public school teacher, was
designated as the fiesta directorate chairman. Because of his talent, he
accepted the task willingly even without any honorarium. He facilitated the
culture-based activities that resulted to a very organized celebration of their
barrio fiesta. Is it alright for Mr. Maya not to receive payment for the services
he rendered during the barrio fiesta?
Mrs. San Jose who is enrolled in a master’s degree program informed the
principal that she could not make it for she needs to attend her Saturday class.
Is it correct not to render service on a Saturday because of her studies?
Case 4
Mrs. Anna Lee A. Amores does not want her student named Joel to be the
highest honor awardee but she prefers Leonard, another student to get the
recognition. In order to ensure that Leonard will get the highest honor
award, she gave Joel low grades in recitation and in performance tasks. Is it
right to give Joel low grades just to make Leonard the awardee?

Case 5
Mr. Mario B. Reyes has been teaching for the last 15 years. Every time his
principal would ask him to attend training, he would always decline and
would ask another teacher to attend the said training. Is this proper?
ACTIVITY 3. Now that you are done reading and analyzing the different provisions
and articles specified in the Code of Ethics for Professional Teachers, you are
requested to share your insights focusing on the learning that you gained from this
session and at the same time, other information that you think are necessary to
understand about the Code of Ethics.
B. Reflection
Study the following situations. Choose the best option by putting a check on
the space provided for each choice. Explain your answer.
Situation no. 1
Being a person known for his integrity and credibility, Mr. Elbert R. Tolentino has been
serving as part of the Board of Election Canvassers for the past 10 years. However, in
the coming elections, his mother will be running as barangay captain. Because of this, he
is asked to campaign for her. Is it alright for him to campaign for his mother’s
candidacy? Explain your answer.
He should not take part in any campaigns that would compromise his job as a non-
partisan official not unless Mr Tolentino will not serve in the said election then Mr.
Tolentino is allowed to do so.
Situation no. 2
Mr. Mario Ocampo, who has been teaching for the last 25 years, refused to attend an
important conference in Mindanao. Every time he is asked by the principal to attend
such an activity, he always requests a new teacher to attend. As a professional
teacher, is it right to express refusal in attending conferences.
Situation no. 3
Ms. Rose Q. Reyes posted two-piece swimwear picture of herself in her Facebook
page. She received negative comments from the community and stakeholders. Ms.
Reyes justified that she has the right to post anything on her Facebook account since it
was her personal account. Is it right for Mrs. Reyes to do such?
According to the Code of Ethics for Teachers a teacher should possess an image
worthy of emulation by the learners, so what ms reyes should do is to think twice
before she post something specially in the social media where miscommunication is
very common.
Situation no. 4
During barangay fiesta, Mr. Ben Y. Maya was designated as the fiesta directorate
chairman. Because of his talent, he accepted the task willingly even without any
honorarium. He facilitated culture-based activities that made their barangay fiesta
a significant one. Is it alright for Mr. Maya not to receive any compensation for his
services rendered since this will be a precedent for the succeeding activity
coordinator?
Mr Maya’s action was right and just, to avoid further issues and such, Mr. Maya
opted not to receive any payment from the said event.
Situation no. 5
Mrs. Dae P. Habalo, of Sibulan National High School refused to admit a student for
not being a resident of the said barangay where the school is located. Is it right for
her to do so?
Mrs. Habalo should not refuse a student from enrolling in the said school not
unless the schools population will exceed and the population will greatly enlarge up
to the point that the school can no longer cater the needs of the learners, now that is
the time where mrs habalo may suggest to the student to enroll to a school close to
their barangay.
Situation no. 6
Knowing that Mrs. Sedillo is the adviser of the said section and that is an outside school
event Mrs Sedillo should be there and be responsible for her section, so whatever happens
to the students even if Mrs Sedillo is not around she is still responsible for the untoward
incident that might happen to her students.
Situation no. 7
What Madam Ramos did is not a wise move the teacher should be having a take home
salary atleast 5000 for him/her to use as a budget for the entire month. What madam
made is unwise and will surely lead her to resort to another loan that might be the reason
for her to have a lot of loans that might possibly affect the pensions madam might receive
on the time that she will retire
Situation no. 8
Mr. Ricky dela Cruz is one of the youngest teacher in Silab Community High School.
Due to his young age he has lots of friends and barkadas. After school hours, he is
always seen with his friends in an internet café playing Dota, in gambling dens, and
in beerhouses. He also frequently seen in discos during weekends. Is Mr. Cruz
acting as a good model to his students?
Mr. Cruz is not a good model to his students because of his drastic actions and life choices
Mr. Cruz is creating a bad image towards the community that he is in which would result
him to break the Code of Ethics for Teachers, so as a teacher we should be careful in our
actions and always keep in mind that we are already teachers and we are role models to
our learners so we must remember to create a rapport to our learners and community and
be a role model to them.
MY PLEDGE OF COMMITMENT
Recall your teaching practices and make a list of your strengths and
development needs.
B. Reflection
Reflect on the following questions.
3. A scholarship program service contract will oblige you to render return service
for the privilege you earned before you can apply for another scholarship.
It is a give and take process. You earn and you give for personal development and
development of the school.
4. A local scholarship program may be allowed to teachers who may at the same
time report to school provided the degree or course is finished within the prescribed
period. However, if teachers will not be allowed to study on official time, they may go
on official vacation leave with pay, or leave without pay. This leave should not be more
than 1 year in case there are not enough leave credits.
It is a just method of providing for teachers. It gives them the freedom to deliberate
and make professional plans.
B. Reflection
“I AM VALUED AND REWARDED”
The passages I've read have made me realize that becoming a teacher is not
a simple task. I've learned that you shouldn't do things just to be recognized or just
to be given a reward because most of the time that does not happen, so what you
should do is to make actions that will make you happy instead of expecting
someone to praise and acknowledge your effort. Instead, you should do things that
will make you feel satisfied and fulfilled because you know that you have done so.
