Module 3B - Learning Resources-LDM
Module 3B - Learning Resources-LDM
Now that you are familiar with how a lesson is designed in the modalities, you
will also need to gather the learning materials you need to deliver the lesson.
This Module will help you refresh your knowledge on the different types of
resources available for you in the different LDMs, show how you can access
these materials, and introduce a method of rapidly assessing them before use.
MODULE OBJECTIVES
By the end of this Module, you will be able to:
1. associate learning resources (LRs) with specific learning modalities
2. access resources from online portals such as DepEd Commons and LR Portal of the
Department of Education
3. explain the importance of using quality assured LRs
MODULE CONTENT
*LAC Sessions are included in the activities but may be optional as determined by the LAC
Members under the guidance of the LAC Leader
This lesson will give you the map of learning resources needed for the implementation of the
different Distance Learning (DL) subcategories.
Key Topics/Concepts
distance learning; learning resources, LR maps, subcategories of DL
Resources Required
3 Learning Resources (LR) Map
3 Study Notebook
ACTIVITY 1.
The DepEd Memorandum on Suggested Strategies in Implementing LDMs for SY 2020-2021 included
the Learning Resources (LR) Map as a guide in selecting the appropriate Distance LDM to be
implemented in Schools/Divisions. Study this map and answer the following questions in your Study
Notebook:
1. Based on the map, what resources should you have in order to implement the LDM adopted
by your School/Division?
Online SLM
2. Do you have the complete resources for the Distance LDM needed in class? If the LRs are not
complete or not available, what steps will you take to make these available? What are your
options to substitute these missing LRs?
3. What support will you need to maximize the use of the two DepEd-sanctioned LR Portals?
From whom can you get this support?
4. Based on your evaluation of the materials, are they appropriate to the level and
characteristics of learners? Are there learners who might be disadvantaged by the materials
(based on reading ability, level of learning independence, level of household support,
distance)? What adjustments will you make in terms of the LRs?
In your LAC Session, share and discuss your answers from the previous activity. What support can you
provide to your colleagues and what support can you get from them in terms of LRs? Take note of
the insights that you can gather from your colleagues and write them in your Study Notebook.
Good job! You are now done with Lesson 1. Proceed to Lesson 2 to learn how to access
LRs from DepEd Portals.
In this lesson, you will walk through the LR portals hosted by the Department of
Education, namely the Learning Resource Management and Development System (LRMDS)
Portal and DepEd Commons. Likewise, you will explore other LR portals online.
Key Topics/Concepts
DepEd Commons; learning resources; LR Portal; LRMDS
Resources Required
3 LR Portal User Guide (Access and Registration)
3 Memorandum on DepEd Commons
3 Study Notebook
3 LR Portal Video Tutorial
1. LRMDS Portal. Ensure that you have an LRMDS Portal Account. If you have not registered yet,
follow the LR Portal User Guide to guide you in your registration process. Alternatively, seek
assistance from any of your colleagues or your IT personnel in your school, district, or
division. You may also coordinate with your LAC Leader and/or Coach. To understand the
portal better, you may watch the LR Portal Video Tutorial located in the resources of this
Course.
2. DepEd Commons. Ensure that you have access to DepEd Commons. Refer to Memorandum
on DepEd Commons dated March 17, 2020.
Explore the Portals. In your Study Notebook, answer the following questions:
1. Given the LDM adopted in your School, how can the two DepEd portals respond to your LR
needs and those of your learners’? How do they complement the LRs that you already have?
2. What are the challenges in accessing the LRs in the portals both for you and your learners?
How will you overcome these challenges?
3. What support will you need to be able to maximize the use of the LR Portals? From whom can
you get this support?
In your next LAC Session, share and discuss your answers to the questions in Activity 1. Explore how
you can help and support each other in using the LR portals. Jot down the insights and helpful
information regarding the use of the LR portals in your Study Notebook.
Good job! You are done with Lesson 2. You may now proceed to Lesson 3.
Now you are familiar with the LR portals and the resources that are available for you and
your learners. While the resources may have undergone a quality assurance process, you
may still need to assess the LRs in terms of their relevance to your lessons and to your
learners. In this Module, you will be introduced to some steps that you can take to ensure
the relevance and usefulness of each LR as well as other issues that can come with the
learning resource.
Key Topics/Concepts
learning resources; LR assessment tool; quality assurance
Resources Required LR
Rapid Assessment Tool
Study Notebook
ACTIVITY 1.
Study the LR Rapid Assessment Tool. Download an LR from either DepEd Commons or LRMDS Portal
and assess the material using the tool. Answer the following questions in your Study Notebook:
Explore other non-DepEd LR portals/platforms you can find online. Take note of the portals in your
Study Notebook. Download at least one LR from each portal. Assess the materials using the same tool
and answer the following questions in your Study Notebook:
ACTIVITY 3.
Choose one of the LR materials that you have developed. Assess this material using the same tool.
Answer the following questions in Your Study Notebook:
1. How does your material compare with the ones that are obtained from the online portals?
2. What improvements do you still need to make in your developed material?
ACTIVITY 4.
Share and discuss your answers to the questions in Activities 1, 2, and 3 in your next LAC
Session. Jot down insights and information that can be useful to you in choosing the appropriate
LRs.
Submit your LR assessments with your reflection on the exercises to your LAC Leader. Ensure that you
keep a copy for yourself.
Congratulations! You are now done with Module 3B. You may now proceed to Module
4.
