ANALYSIS
In what area of classroom management was the teacher most effective? Which of the supportive
measures were effective? Why?
All of the supportive measures observed were effective except for some issues with discipline which in my
opinion are just naturally given that the observed students were just minors.
In what area of classroom management was the teacher least effective? Which supportive measures were
not effective? Why?
It cannot be said that the teacher is less effective when it comes to discipline, there may be some issues with it
but it should be considered that the students are minors and are prone to disciplinary issues.
Suggest more effective ways for your answer in number 2.

I think it is normal that you cant follow all the guidelines in classroom management when it comes to
the actualization of the activity.
Sometimes teachers have to give a lot of time to emphasize the topic to the pupils.

10
REFLECTIONS
Describe at least 3-5 characteristics of a teacher who can establish a well-managed classroom.
The teacher should be organized, strict but fair and dedicated to the teaching profession to be able to establish a
well-managed classroom.

What characteristics do you have at present that can make you an effective classroom manager?
Elaborate how these characteristics can help you.
At present I can claim that my characteristics are being organized and fair. By being organized I can easily
assign tasks to myself and my would be pupils. Fairness is a trait that a teacher should always have, for without
it no pupils will respect him even if they fear him.
What characteristics do you have at present that can hamper you from becoming an effective classroom
manager? How can you overcome these characteristics?
Focus is the main characteristic that this writer lacks at the moment. But with due time and given more
responsibilities he believes that he will overcome it.

EPISODE 3: THE TEACHER AND THE COMMUNITY
COMMUNITY TOUR OBSERVATION REPORT
School Observed:
School Address:
Date of Visit:
Locality of the School
The School is located at, near the city proper.Issues/Concerns/Problems of the Community
The community has no issues,concerns or problems that can affect the school not even traffic or
pollution.Community Resources
Quarry, farm ( rice, vegetables and onions ) and construction materials.Community Assistance/Service Given
by the School
The school helps in keeping the vicinity clean always. They also join whatever activity the community comes
up with.

12
ANALYSIS
Suggest new ways by which the school can creatively use resources of the community.
If there are vacant lots near the school they can ask the owner to let the school make a flower/vegetable garden
in it. In that way the community benefits from whatever produce the garden can make and also keep the place
clean.
How can the school address the issues/concerns and problems of the community?
The school can be an important help to any problem the community is facing thru information drive. They can
also coordinate with the present community officers and ask them in what way they can be of help.
What possible linkages can the community and the school have?
The community could offer scholarships to poor but deserving students who cannot afford to go to
school.

13
REFLECTIONS
How did you feel while you were going around the community? What things did you learn that you
might have taken for granted before?
I have learned that the community and the school are inter-related because whenever there is an activity in the
community the school always participates in those activities such as tree planting, clean-up drive,
beautification projects, etc. Same also for the school, whenever they need some helping hand in the form of
money or labor the community tries its best to help.
As a future teacher, what do you think will be your role in the community?
As a future teacher, I will serve the community by being a good example to them. Teach my students the
proper values and how to help the community in their own little way.
How will you encourage more community participation among teachers and students?

By volunteering everytime the community is doing a worthwhile project such as tree planting, clean-up
drive, beautification projects, etc.

either public or private.5 years from now, I will. try to get a masters degree in Education.10 years from
now, I willbe teaching in a college department preferably for teachers so I can also impart my knowledge to
would be teachers of the future.
18
CLIP ART ESSAY
Title: The future Global Teacher
Message: With the rapid growth of information technology, personal computers, netbooks, tablets and other
personal devices will greatly aid the teachers of the future. By being able to store large amounts of data some
of these devices take the equivalent of 20 textbooks or more. The future classrooms will be equipped with
LED screens to better display the lessons and as it is also touch screen capable, so interacting with the lesson is
more enjoyable for the teacher and the students.
Reflection: With the undeniable influence of technology in future education especially in more advanced
countries, a teacher who wants to teach in a country that uses these technologies in their educational system
should at the earliest possible time learn how to use these gadgets.
