ANALYZE
1. Based on your findings and observations in Activity 16.1 and Activity 16.2, which philosophies of
education is dominant in Philippine basic schools? Why do you say so?
Progressivism, reconstructionism, behaviorism, and constructivism for me is dominate in
Philippine education, shaping me in my learning experience as a student. I’ve benefited from a
learner-centered approach that emphasizes academic and personal growth. These philosophies
have fostered my development as a responsible student and citizen, equipping me with the skills
and values needed for success in today’s society.
2. If there on philosophy that schools and teachers should give more attention to, what should that be and
why?
For me, in my own opinion, perennialism and existentialism should be prioritized in schools and
teachers, as they emphasize critical thinking and individual growth. Despite the new DepEd
curriculum, many students still struggle with basic reading and writing skills, affecting their
decision-making. Unlike past generations, today’s students often lack the discipline and focus
that come from attentive teaching and learning.
REFLECT
My Philosophy in Teaching
I believe that the learners possess diverse learning styles and behaviors, making comparisons unproductive.
Emphasizing effective assessments to individual needs enhances their learning experience. By focusing on
learning through hands-on activities and practical application, students can fully engage and thrive in their
educational journeys.
I believe that I should teach the learners beyond academics, incorporating real-life situations that develop their
personalities and prepare them for real life challenges. Embracing the idea for me that "don’t teach them book,
teach them life" enables students to adapt effective learning styles that resonate with their experiences.
By teaching them both academic and real-life situations.
I believe that I can be an effective teacher by preparing my students for the real world, helping them become
aware and capable problem-solvers. While academic awards are rewarding, the true success lies in fostering
personal growth and challenging both myself and my students across multiple subjects for holistic development.
