LEARNING OUTCOMES

At the end of the module, you should be able to:


1. use competently the ICT tools to support the development of activities for the developed
learning plan;
2. produce learning resources using technology tools in the student’s chosen topic in
his/her field of specialization; and
3. appreciate the need for the integration of technology in the teaching and learning
process.

LESSON 1: Learning Plan and Writing a Learning Plan

Objectives:
At the end of the lesson, you should be able to:
1. explain the parts of a learning plan;
2. develop a weeklong learning plan where ICT is integrated for a topic from their field of
specialization’; and
3. appreciate ICT as a tool in preparing their learning plans.

Preparing lessons for the week this pandemic is a little bit more challenging than
preparing lesson plans or daily lesson log during the face to face classes, since you are not
around to discuss your lessons. So there is a big doubt if students really understood their
lessons before doing the formative and summative assessment? Are they really doing their
modules guided only by parents or guardian? Or are the parents or guardian doing the
module and not the pupil or student?
In this lesson you will be familiarizing yourselves in the Weekly Learning Plan (WLP) or
Weekly Home Learning Plan (WHLP) since this is the new normal where modular and online
classes are the modes of learning.

LET’S TALK ABOUT IT

The Weekly Home Learning Plan shall aid teachers and parents in keeping track of the
day-to-day in-school and off-school general learning processes as they implement the most
suitable and feasible alternative learning modality based on the context of their school. It
creates awareness among learners that they are responsible for what they learn.

The Weekly Home Learning Plan shall be prepared by teachers implementing Distance
and Blended Learning while the DLP or DLL which is prescribed in DepEd Order 42, s. 2016
otherwise known as the Policy Guidelines on Daily Lesson Preparation for the K to 12 Basic
Education Program shall be prepared by teachers implementing face to face (F2F) learning.

The Weekly Home Learning Plan shall be communicated through the parents for their
reference and guidance. Copies of the plans for the entire first quarter may be distributed to
parents during the first Parent-Teacher Association (PTA) meeting before the start of the
school year. They shall be given comprehensive and clear orientation by the school about the
contents, purpose, and use of the learning plan by their children. Hence, it is highly
encouraged that teachers shall have prepared the Weekly Home Learning Plans for the first
quarter prior to the opening of classes. The Weekly Home Learning Plans for the succeeding
quarters may be distributed in time for the quarterly homeroom meeting. The same process
shall be followed in terms of orientation about its contents, purpose, and use.

What is an Individual learning Plan?


An ILP is a collaboratively written document which outlines a student’s current level of
ability and identifies specific goals for future attainment. ILP’s ensure students with learning
difficulties and disabilities have access to a meaningful curriculum suited to their particular
needs.
ILPs build on a student’s current level of learning and take into consideration a
student’s cultural, linguistic and social-economic background.
ILP’s are written by the teacher during and after an ILP meeting with parents, career,
case workers, therapists, school counsellors, and anyone else positively involved in the
student’s life. And, of course, they should involve the student.
ILP’s should -
 Contain a meaningful educational program outlining specific, measurable goals and
strategies to best achieve those goals.
 Outline what the student can currently do.
 Be age and developmentally appropriate.
 Focus on strengths and potential.
 Clearly indicate responsibilities.
 Be regularly reviewed.
 Be individualized and based on a student’s needs and aspirations.
 Outline how progress towards goals will be measured.
Steps of an Individual Learning Plan
(Based on DET Victoria’s Table 3.2.1 Stages in an Individual Learning Plan & The Royal
Children's Hospital Education Institute’s Key principles to guide the development of an ILP).
a. Understand the Student- what are their needs?
Identify the students’ strengths, skills, challenges, preferred learning styles and
interests. What motivates them? Reflect on their learning in class, use student self-evaluation,
questionnaires and inventories.
b. Set SMART goals- make them meaningful & measurable
Set long term goals that reflect learning outcomes in the areas of social, academic and
life skills. Write short term goals that are linked to the long term goals. Ensure they are
relevant to the student.
c. Plan the Program
Include organizational strategies such as when, how, where and by whom the lessons
will be taught. What teaching methods will you use? What learning experiences will you plan?
What resources do you need?
d. Implement the Plan
Determine who is responsible for delivering parts of the plan. When will the learning
take place? Can the learning experiences be integrated into your daily teaching practice?
e. Monitor & Review
Identify what’s working and what isn’t working. How will the student’s progress be
monitored and reported? What will be your process for reviewing and adjusting the plan?
Ensuring Real Benefit
There are a number of things we can do to ensure our ILPs have real benefit for our
students; research (A Systematic review of what is known about Individualized Learning Plans,
Barnett et al, 2012) suggests the following:
The student and all care providers are included in the process:
1. It is focused on strengths and challenges,
 There is general agreement on the goals,
 The student’s voice is in evidence throughout the ILP,
 Goals are measurable and explicit,
 The student is aware of his/her goals and targets,
 The ILP is expressed in age-appropriate, simple language,
 It is a working document with clear procedures for monitoring progress,
 The ILP process is accepted within the school as a normal part of school procedures,
 Allocation of time to develop plans, conduct meetings and review progress, as well as
providing professional development is established,
 A standardized format such as software or web-based tool is used.
2. Weekly Home Learning Plan will be based on the actual program. It shall be prepared by
the subject teacher, reviewed by the class adviser and approved by the school principal.
Procedures in Making Home Learning Plan:
a. Refer to the Most Essential Learning Competency (MELC’s) in different subject area.
b. Gather the self-learning modules and other learning materials needed for the self-
paced learning mode. Example: Modular, distance learning and blended learning.
c. Using the SLMs as reference, accomplish the Weekly Learning Plan.
d. Subject area teachers must collaborate to come up with a set of Weekly Learning Plan.
e. When preparing with the Weekly Home Learning Plan, teachers should be guided with a
long-term vision of what they want their learners to master and achieve.
f. Teachers are advised to adopt strategies that respect the unique contexts and diversity
of learners.
g. In plotting the learning tasks teachers should strike a balance between academic rigor
and socio- emotional aspect as learning.
3. The Weekly Learning Plan shall be communicated through the parents for their reference
and guidance. Copies for the plans of the entire first quarter maybe distributed to parents
during the first Parents-Teachers Association (PTA) meeting before the start of the school
year. They shall be given comprehensive and clear orientation by the school about the
contents purpose of the learning plan of their children.
4. The Weekly Learning Plan shall aid teachers and parents in keeping track of the day-to-day
and off-school general learning processes as they implement the most suitable and feasible
alternative learning modality based on the context of their school.
5. The Weekly Learning Plan shall be prepared by teachers implementing Distance and
blended learning while the Daily Learning Plan or Daily Lesson Log which is prescribed by
DepEd Order No. 42 s. 2016, otherwise known as the Policy and Guidelines on the
implementation of the Daily lesson preparation for the K-12 basic Education Program shall be
prepared by teachers implementing face-to-face learning.
6. The Individual Monitoring Plan, on the other hand is a more specific tool which shall be used
by teachers and learning facilitators for learners who lag behind as shown by the result of
their formative and summative assessment.
7. For learners who are given intervention activities, their weekly home learning plan shall
adjust to suit their comprehension level.
