F.S. 5 - Learning Activity 3: Utilization of Teaching Aids

Tools:







Analysis:



What is the basis of the teacher in choosing such instructional material in the lesson?



                Clearly, the basis of the teacher in choosing the instructional materials used in her lesson is the scope of her subject taught. Since the teacher’s lesson is more on problem solving that really involves writing, she just appropriately used visual aids and chalkboard in her teaching. Teaching the lesson “measures of variability” which includes mean, median, mode, standard deviation and others, really needs to use those instructional materials.




Do you observe any difficulty in the use of the instructional materials? How did she manage it?

                As I observed, she did not have any difficulty in using her instructional materials because she already mastered using those instructional materials. Since the teacher already mastered using those instructional materials, the students easily learned because the can get easily with to the teacher and to the teachers’ instructional materials used.


Was the use of the materials effective? Why? Why not?

                Somehow, for me, the use of the instructional materials was effective because those materials were able to show to the students what the subject matter was all about. It was able to let the students visualize and perform the topic discussed.


How did the learners respond to the teacher’s use of the visual aids?

                As I have seen, the students actively responded to the teacher’s teaching method with the use of the teaching aids. The teacher successfully got the student’s attention through the use of those teaching aids. The students also positively participated to the teacher’s lesson.




Reflection:





Imagine yourself as the teacher. What would you do or not do if you were to teach the same subject to the same group of students? 



                If I were to teach the same subject and the same lesson to the same group of students, I will use more teaching aids so that the students will really learn not only the process but also where those processes came from. For example, by explaining where the formulas came from, the use of interactive teaching materials is helpful for me just like power point presentations/slideshows, video tutorials and others. With the use of these interactive teaching materials, the students will surely lend their eyes and ears to me. Another is by using teaching materials for classroom games just like flash cards. By this way, the students are all included and no one is exempted. Even if it is in a form of game, learning still presides in each of the students. The lifestyle of the new generation people nowadays are modernized, that is why if I were to teach that lesson, I will not use the traditional visual aids because it may be still effective but students who will not listen are still inevitable and by the use of technological teaching aids, the students will surely involve in the teaching-learning process.
