Statement of Purpose
The intent of this portfolio is to provide and share experiences and ideas to those who will
undergo the same undertakings. Through the experiences written, some latest innovations
and strategies in teaching were shared. Their applicability will vary depending on whatever
and whenever it suits to the classroom situation. Some classroom problems were also
mentioned whether they are severe or not, they are somehow enriching experiences that
will guide and teach future mentors in performing teaching endeavors
FIELD STUDY
Our Target
At the end of this episode, we will gain competence in clarifying our values
about teaching, and in articulating and demonstrating one’s personal philosophy of teaching
the end goal is to be a positive role model for students.
1. a. My goal/s for my pupils/students is/are:
I believe each and every child has the potentials to bring something unique and special to
the world. I will help children to develop their potentials by believing in them as capable
individuals. I will assist children in discovering who they are, so they can express their own
opinion and nurture their own ideas. I have a vision of a world where people learn to respect,
accept and embrace the differences between us as the core of what makes life so
fascinating.
Lastly, I will tie learning into the world community to help children become caring and active
members of the society.
My classroom will be a caring, safe and equitable environment where each child can
blossom and grow. I will allow children to become responsible members of our classroom
community by using strategies such as class meetings, positive discipline, and democratic
principles. In showing children how to become responsible for themselves as well as to their
own learning, I am giving them the tools to become successful in life, to love and believe in
themselves.

Our Reflections
1. a. If you were a school tool (ruler, pencil, paper, etc.), what would you
be? Why?
Why? There are so many
tools used by the students in
the school like ruler, pencil,
eraser, book, etc. Indeed, all
of them plays a significant
part in the students’ lives.
But if I were a school tool and
relate it to the kind of
teacher I would want to be, I
would choose a ruler,
because I want to guide my
students into the right
direction. However, I want to
straighten their lives so that
it would not be put into
waste. Obviously, just like a
ruler I want to give my
Drawing students a straight path
towards a better future.
Why? Table, chair,
blackboard are only some of
the furniture that can be
found in school likewise door
and window. But if I were a
school furniture I would want
to be a window, because I
want to give my students
something to look up
especially when all the doors
are closing on them.
Moreover, I would always be
open on them to give them
light during the darkest hour
of their lives.
Drawing

Drawing
Why? If I were a school tool,
I will be a ruler because like
a ruler, I will guide my
students to become a
productive individual later on
by teaching them the
concepts they ought to learn
and I will provide them the
knowledge so that they
would be in the right path,
doing the right actions and
that they will succeed
eventually.
Why? If I were a school tool,
I would be a chair. Just like a
chair which supports a
person who sits on it, I will be
the supporting person to my
students, encouraging them
to learn more and value
education so as for them to
acquire knowledge which is a
very important factor for
their success and like a chair,
I will make them comfortable
through showing respect to
each of them, their
weaknesses and strengths
and their inclinations to
learning.

Why? If I were a school tool,
I would be a door because I
want to be open-minded kind
of teacher for my students. I
will always be open to all the
ideas, suggestions and even
reactions of my students so
that none of them will
develop fear or hesitations in
approaching me. I will accept
any type of students because

Our Analysis
In what area of classroom management was the teacher most effective? Which of
the supportive measures were effective? Why?
The discretion of the teacher to have a separate time schedule and vicinity or place
where the students will have to perform their activities which requires demonstration of
skills was the teacher’s most effective classroom management because in this way, the
students’ full potential to provide the best performances will be catered, thus the teacher is
giving justice to her students as to their understanding and learning of the lesson.
In what area of classroom management was the teacher least effective? Which
supportive measures were not effective? Why?
As we have learned from our visitation in the school where we conducted our interview, the
teacher’s classroom management is with least effectiveness is in the physical environment
of the classroom itself because the whole class is composed of 55 pupils and that made the
classroom very crowded.
However, this cannot be attributed solely to the teacher’s management since it is already
out the teacher’s hands but to the proper authorities who must had provided the school
premise with enough classroom and resources to cater the needs of the students.
Also, a teacher who is sensitive to the needs of his every student and a teacher who has a
strong determination who will never be swayed in giving his policies in the classroom in
order to establish order that will eventually result to the learning of the students.
This I think should be changed. I should be more patient to my students and will have to
learn to be considerate to them because not at all times that a person is positively inclined
to something, therefore, I will give them enough time but in the same manner, I will set a
specific time frame for them to pass the specific activity for them not take their work for
granted
1. a. At times that I don’t know something I usually ask someone who can help me
without relying on my capabilities.
2. b. When some things went wrong always, I tend to become lazy to find for
solutions in which I become dependent to others.

THE TEACHER
AND THE
COMMUNITY
Our Target
Name of the School Observed: Escalante National High School
Locality of the School
Issues/Concerns/Problems of the Community
The main issue of the community that bothers the most is the
problem on dengue fever which affects 30 individuals in the
barangay. Traffic condition was okay and there was never a
problem with it as well as the pollution. Peace and order was
also good, though there was some cases of verbal conflicts
among the residents but was settled thereafter. The problem
on juvenile delinquency was of minor cases only like the thief
of some household animals, but were also properly addressed
and fined. The security for children was catered through the
deployment of barangay tanods in assisting the schools during
the end ofclasses, assisting the students in crossing the
streets safely to home.
Community Resources
school.
Community/Assistance/Service Given by the School
Our Analysis
Suggest new what ways by which the school can creatively use the resources of
the community.
We suggest to have field trips because the city has a museum that may provide
insights and knowledge on the city’s history, products, culture and the early inhabitants
from the earlier times. We also suggest to utilize the city coliseum as much as possible for
the activities and events where the school is required to perform. It is good for the students
to have an exposure to their community resources because there is always learning when
they have actually experienced it.
How can the school address the issue/concerns and problems of the community?
The problems and concerns and issues of the community can be addressed by the
school through its participation in the different activities. The school can hold symposiums in
helping the community to be aware on how to lessen their vulnerability on dengue fever.
The school can provide tips on how to maintain cleanliness at home and lessens the cases of
dengue through conducting meetings to the PTA/PTCA at schools.
What possible linkages can the community and the school have?
The possible linkages that the community and the school have are
brigadaeskwela, tree planting, coastal clean-up and mangrove planting. During fiesta
celebrations, there is parade and there are drummers coming from the school and according
to the OIC, teachers are in charged for the sports activity. CAT officers and SSC officers are
also involved in the activity, and SPA class are in charged for the musical and literary
activities. There is also DepEd Night during fiesta.
Our 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?
As we go around the community, we feel a sense of belongingness even though
we were new and strangers on that place. It is because the people there were very
approachable and we received a very warm welcome from them. The things that we learned
that we might have taken for granted before was the fact that there were people who gave
their lives for the sake of their lands, of course as a student living in urban areas, we did not
fully realize about human passions can do such things as giving their own lives.
As a future teacher, what do you think will be your role in the community?
As a future teacher, we think we will be an adviser as well as a surrogate parents
to our students as well as to the community through making them aware of the things they
ought to do and ought not to do. Giving them advices even on simple activity or task and
providing them choices on what to employ in terms of materials so as to produce better if
not the best results of their required task.
How will you encourage more community participation among teachers and
students?
We will encourage more community participation among teachers and students by
joining the activities conducted by the community most especially during fiesta
celebrations, so as to enhance the participation and values and attitudes of the students in
which the teacher must also serve as a guide and a trainer before and during the said
activities. Moreover, joining on the activities conducted by the community will show that
students’ abilities are not only limited in indoors but it can be also useful during outdoors.

Our Analysis
From the responses of the teachers, what conclusions can you make about the
knowledge that a global teacher should have?
v Based on what the teachers said, to be a global teacher, one should have the knowledge
on the different approaches and methods in delivering the lesson to the students. So as to
facilitate their understanding and learning. This knowledge on the methods sand
approaches of teaching must go hand in hand with the teacher’s knowledge on how to
utilize the modern technologies that aid in the best learning of the students.
From the response of the teachers, what conclusion can you make about the skills
that a global teacher should have?
v Based on what the teachers said, to be a global teacher, one should know how to
manipulate the modern technologies and be good in this ICT tools in teaching the lesson.
This skill must be applied inside the classroom as long as it is appropriate in the lesson so as
to be an effective global teacher. A global teacher should also possess the skills such as
oral, good written and communication skills because these are the basic and main skills that
the teacher should have so as to deliver the lesson effectively.
From the response of the teachers, what conclusion can you make about the
values that a global teacher should have?
v Based on what the teacher said, to be a global teacher, one should impart values like
being open minded, flexible, able to adjust to new change and challenges, patience, love
and compassion so as to be an effective global teacher. These values must be observed by
a teacher at all times so that students will develop a sense of respect and eagerness in
listening to the discussion.

In these moderntimes,we cannot deny the great influence of modern technologies in our
lives, much so with the way of our living, both the young and adults alike. With the advent of
these modern technologies, we were able to do our tasks more easily. Thisalsomade a very
great impct to education; because of these trends in teaching, we also allow ourselves to
grow. We are no longer stagnant to the traditional methods.
A Global Citizen, a Global Teacher
(Article)
By FretziePadolinaAlcantara
Date published: June 14, 2009
Modern times paved us the way for different technological advances that prevent to be very
helpful in our everyday living. Different technological advances created a new trend to
satisfy our thirst for modernism and high-tech living. With these new trends, our educational
system is also coinciding with this making learning more advanced through the use of
modern devices.
The most common (and I think the most important invention in the 20 th century) is the
computer. During those times computers are only used for computing and storing data, but
right now having a computer and knowing how to use it is just as necessary as having to put
a food on the plate for your dinner! Computers proved to very helpful and useful for
education that integration has been the topic during seminars and workshops and how can
we utilize it to help our students face the world surrounded by modem technology.
It is true that technology has its plus and minuses. Others may also say that because of
technological advances, we are all teaching our children to become lazy and just depend on
the computer. Yet let us accept the fact that time has changed, our times are evolving and
we could no longer apply what we have learned in the previous years to the generation of
today. We should go with the flow. We just have to know our limitations in using these
modern technologies. These are made to make our life easier and comfortable. We are
human beings ad we are given the mind so we can manipulate things accordingly.
Moreover, because of these trends in teaching, we also allow ourselves to grow. We are no
longer stagnant to the traditional methods. We are now more open to new ideas that would
not just increase our students learning but also ourselves. As we open ourselves to new fad,
we can no longer feel outcast… we are part of the modern world and we are now all ready to
face a more challenging role and that is to become the teacher of tomorrow’s youth. Why
would we keep ourselves inside a nutshell when we can explore the world? The world is at
our advantage, the world is waiting for us.
Furthermore being inclined with these technological advances, we must also know our
responsibilities. It is not every time that we have to let our students tinker the computer and
we would just sit back and relaxes knowing that that the World Wide Web or www can
provide the much needed information. We could not just do that. We are not teaching them
anymore. We are feeding them with information that is not anymore filtered if they teach
moral or ethical values. Modern devices such as computers are only a tool for learning. It is
not the one who will teach us. It is still far more different than having a teacher in front who
could explain the information being fed to these young minds. We just have to remember
that the best computer in the world in our minds. We, the teachers, don’t just fed
information nor just teach these children the basics of addition and subtraction or the proper
use of grammar, we also touch their lives, we become a part of them, a part of their lives
that could not just be erases or deleted by just a click away. We remain in their hearts
forever.
Given these facts, we are now more than ready to call ourselves not just modern teachers
but GLOBAL TEACHERS. Because global teachers do not just use modern ways of teaching or
utilize modern devices for improved learning, but also has a heart… a heart that tenderly
cares for every individual and a hand that gently holds every learner’s mind to be a great
contribution to the world. A student who is not just a product of modern world but can also
be considered a GLOBAL CITIZEN OF THE WORLD.
And now a GLOBAL TEACHER, creating GLOBAL CITIZENS OF THE WORLD, what else could
we ask for more?

The clip art portrays a teacher, a Filipino one, as it clearly showed from
what the illustration of the country’s map, who wherever may be placed or whatever
situation he/she will face, may it would be in his own land or even abroad, to foreign
countries and all around the globe, can be an effective educator, giving his students not
only the basic knowledge and skills but important values and compassion as well. This he
does and attains with the aid of modern technologies and advancements which enable him
to become an effective and a globally competitive teacher.
Our reflection:
In this modern era, one should be well-equipped with the knowledge and
skills in the modern technologies. Much more with being a teacher if a teacher has a good
understanding of how these advanced technologies work, he/she can apply it to teaching,
resulting to a better understanding of the students and providing them insights and
opportunities to improve their lives through the use and application of these technologies.

Additional comments
Our reflection
How do you feel about the policies and guidelines concerning teachers? How will
you respond to them in the future?
With regards to the policies and guidelines concerning teachers, we feel that it is really
necessary that we must be committed, affectionate, and serious in teaching students. We
will respond to them in the future by becoming a good person or citizen today so that we
will become a good teacher someday. We should also abide by those policies and guidelines
in order for us to become a good teacher and a good citizen as well.
What insights/realizations did you have about the demands of being a
professional teacher? How will you meet these challenging demands in the
future?
The insights or realization that we have is that, as a teacher we should always take
responsibility to sustain professional growth and maintain professionalism of our behavior at
all times. We should be also accountable for the efficient and effective learning of our
students. We will meet these challenging demands in the future by associating and learning
from positive mentor, joining a professional organization and having an extensive body of
knowledge about teaching and being a good decision maker to be able to increase student
learning.
What are your values and strengths that can help you become a true
professional?
My love for whatever job that comes my way is my greatest value and strength. For it is not
only important that you are knowledgeable in a given job, it is also important that you love
what you are doing.
