ANALYZE:
Write the most salient developmental characteristics of the learners you
observed. Based on these characteristics, think of implication for the teacher.
Level Salient Implications to the

Characteristics Teaching-Learning
Observed Process
High School Physical Development I think through this salient
Age range of learners characteristics that I
observed: Adolescence observed in the classroom
(16-17 years) that the most common
implications to the teacher
especially to their teaching –
learning process in their
respective classroom is that,
by recognizing and adapting
to the physical development
of learners, educators can
create environments that
support overall well-being
and enhance the learning
experience. This approach
promotes inclusivity and
acknowledges the
interconnectedness of
physical health and
academic success.
REFLECT:
1. While you were observing the learners, did you recall your own
experiences when you were their age? What similarities or differences
do you have with the learners you observed?
While I was observing the learners, I have a lot of things that I recall with
my own experiences when I was their age like curiosity in life when we begin
to puberty. And we had a lot of questions about the possible changes when
we get this stage of development. I think the similarities or differences that I
have with the learners I observe we were both go beyond on the responsibility
that we face in life and to become more careful the decision we made in life.
2. Think of a teacher you cannot forget for positive or negative reasons.

How did she/he help or not help you with your needs (physical,
emotional, social, and cognitive)? How did it affect you?
When I was in my high school life I encountered different kind of teachers

and they are all good teachers to me. We both know that a teacher is our
second mother who thought us in different way in order for us to become a
better one in the future. But there’s also a teacher that we cannot forget
whether for positive or negative reasons, but for me all my teachers will bring
me into a better person. When in terms of physical, emotional, social, and
cognitive they help me in this matter. I can say that when teachers helps you
in something in your life it makes you increased motivation, boosted
confidence, and there’s a lot of things that you can do that will help you
improve yourself both personal life and academic success.
3. Share your other insights here.
Navigating the challenges of diverse learners possess a significant task

for educators. Recognizing that individual differences play a crucial role in
shaping a student’s performance, teachers must be adept at tailoring their
responses to meet the varied needs of their students. The ability to adapt
strategies and approaches for different groups of learners is essential.
However, the utmost importance lies in the teacher’s acceptance of these
differences and their capacity to empower students, fostering confidence in
their uniqueness.
LEARNING ARTIFACTS
 Which is your favorite theory of development. How can this guide you as a
future teacher? Clip some readings about this theory and paste them here.
Learning is shaped by our developmental progression, evolving as we

traverse life stages, bolstering our human capacities. Each stage contributes
unique developmental patterns, empowering our body and brain to execute
specific tasks. The manner in which we grasp information and react to
challenges fluctuates across these stages, a principle underscored by Jean
Piaget’s Cognitive Development Theory.
Piaget’s theory asserts that individuals progress through diverse stages of
mental development. This variation in cognitive development is the reason for
the differences in learning capacity, comprehension, and knowledge
acquisition between youth and adulthood. From infancy to grown-up stages,
our intellectual capabilities undergo transformation.
Utilizing this theory as a framework for comprehension enables me to

recognize the significance of tailoring and adapting instructional methods,
assessments, and learning materials. Given the inherent diversity in learners,
particularly in mental abilities, the Cognitive Development Theory facilitates
the identification of individual needs. This understanding enables me to
address those needs effectively and appropriately in the educational context.
