Participate and Assist

What will you do to assist your mentor in setting up a conducive learning environment in the
following conditions:
1. Bulletin Board Display
Bulletin board is important in any educational setting. They can be used to give information to students,
reinforce lessons, display student work, and more. I can assist my mentor in setting up an effective
bulletin board by incorporating a theme to it, such as school events or holidays. I can also contribute an
appealing design and structure that would help attract students’ attention, and would encourage them
to interact with what’s displayed on the board.
2. Small Group Discussion
Small group discussion is a method wherein students are formed in a small group to help each other
learn. While the teacher serves as a facilitator, my role during this method is to become a class
moderator. It should be my responsibility as a moderator to prohibit the students from disrupting one
another or speaking at the same time. In that way, I can help maintain a peaceful and successful small
group discussion.
3. Checking class attendance in a virtual classroom (i.e., google meet or zoom)
In a virtual classroom, the teacher usually checks the attendance just like the way they used to do in a
face-to-face class. In this case, I can assist my mentor by keeping track or a record of the student’s
performance in terms of class-wise attendance and behavioral analysis. By doing this, it eases the task of
attendance and I could also help my mentor manage data on real time basis.
Notice
Learning Environment 1:
• What have you noticed of the display in the class bulletin board? What message of theme does it
convey?
- Mission and Vision of the school
- Health board
• What makes it attractive to the learners?
- The designs and content
• Does it help in the learning process?
- Yes
• How?
- It can provide detailed information about a certain content.
Learning Environment 2:
• If the teacher is using a distance delivery of learning through the modules, where is most likely the
learning space of the students?
- Home
• Can you describe?
- The learning environment can be distracting because of different barriers can occur in the learning
process.
• How can you as a teacher help to make such environment conducive for learning?
- In a distance delivery, I can ask help to parents of the learners in promoting creativity and critical
thinking, which are important life skills that students should inculcate when they are in school. Also, in
giving the modules or learning materials I have to be more creative it also helps students to stay focused
and refreshed when studying. Lastly, by giving rewards because students learn best when they are
motivated and a great way to keep them driven is by rewarding achievements.
Analyze
As a teacher, in which of the two situations would you prefer to manage for learning?
Choose between Learning Environment 1 or Learning Environment 2.

Explain your choice: Why?
- I chose Learning Environment 1 because it depicts the learners in classroom and it can make students
to have the opportunity to ask questions during the learning process. It also allows students to
participate in small group discussions, school activities and classroom participation.
Reflect
Based on my noticing and analysis, I realized that
a. Face to face learning is the best learning environment unlike distance delivery because it allows
learners or students to have the actual learning environment wherein the students can learn something
by collaborating with their peers.
b. I realized that conducive learning environment can impact the learning process of the learners.
c. Distance delivery can happen anytime because we are still on the midst of pandemic but the teacher
should be ready on how to make a conducive learning environment.

OBSERVE
What probable problem may result from the two situations of the learning environment?
For face-to-face learning, the following are the probable problems;
a. Travel time from home to school
b. Allowances
c. Learning resources
d. Tuition
For distance delivery, the following are the probable problems;
a. Power interruption
b. Technology
c. Different learning styles
REFLECT
What solutions can I think of to solve the problem?
To solve this problem, the teacher or the administrator should visit the homes of every student to
identify their problem and also how to solve them. The teacher also should have plans on how to meet
the learning outcomes of every learner’s and also to meet the needs and interests of learners. Teachers
should be creative and have the problem-solving skills.
PLAN
How should I do it?
Enable to identify the problem of the students the teacher should coordinate with school administrator,
parents and also the students. The teacher should create all of necessary learning materials. As a
teacher, the needs of the students should be provided by possessing professional competencies and
personal qualities. Also, the teacher should exert efforts and willingness to help the learners in their
learning process.

Work on my Artifacts
In not less than 300 words, write an essay on the topic: “My Conducive Learning Environment”
“My Conducive Learning Environment”
As a future teacher, we should know how to make conducive learning environment. In making
conducive learning environment here is my plan. First is to build the environment, that can help
students to connect or collaborate in their learning process. I will make certain that the arrangement of
desks and work space, the attractiveness and appeal of bulletin boards, and the storage of materials and
supplies are all in their proper locations because students spend a significant amount of their time in
school and this encourages students to be more productive. Second is to make their environment more
creative by placing bulletin boards or clipboards it can help the students to motivate and study.
Clipboards can be used to motivate the students because its function is to display the learner’s work.
Third, is the availability of resources. As a future teacher, I must remember that not only will making the
most of my resources save me time and money, but it will also benefit a child's ability to learn and
develop. For example, the use videos, PowerPoint presentations, worksheets, folders and files, and
books and dictionaries. This enables students to keep an organized environment while also assisting
them in making the most of their learning experience. Lastly, having an award section because students
learn best when they are motivated by giving reward achievements. Playing games can also be use in a
conducive learning environment because it enables students to build relationship to their peers. Also,
games can help to reduce stress especially when examination is coming. As a teacher, I intend to make
my classroom safe, welcoming and accommodating to children. I'd like them to express their thoughts,
ideas and as well as their feelings. I'll also make certain that I can meet their expectations and increases
their attention and focus
