Episode 4.1: Planning and Management of the Teaching and Learning Process
This lesson will guide you in understanding how to plan and implement relevant and
responsive learning programs for the students.
Objectives:
Education Theory
Using developmentally appropriate learning principles and strategies is one of the
instructional demands for the implementation of the K to 12 curriculum as stated in Republic Act
10533, otherwise known as the Enhanced Basic Education Act of 2012. Developmentally appropriate
learning principles and strategies are based on the philosophy of learner – centered education that
focuses on responding to the nature, needs, and interests of the learners.
In the first model of curriculum development, Ralph Tyler (1949) emphasizes that
understanding the learners is one of the important sources of curriculum. Since learning is designed
for the learners, it is imperative for teachers to examine their needs, interests, learning styles,
thinking styles, abilities, exceptionalities, cultural background, socio – economic status, and other
factors. Copple and Bredekamp (2006) identify two things that teachers need to do to successfully
engage in developmentally appropriate practice in their classes: (1) meet learners while they are, as
individuals and as a group, and (2) help learners attain challenging and achievable goals that
contribute to their ongoing development and learning.
For Filipino children, the following principles of developmentally appropriate learning may
be considered by the teacher when planning and implementing instruction:
Each learner has different learning styles, thinking preferences, abilities, strengths and
weaknesses
Learning happens when the learner feels emotionally and physically secured and mentally
engaged
The cultural background and the family and social values of the learner influence learning

The teacher is good at teaching even if he is strict he still makes the student actively listen to
him.
1. What developmentally appropriate learning principles and strategies are observed in class?
-The teacher use games as motivation and provide activities that cater to different skill levels to
keep learners engaged and interested.
-The teacher integrate real-life situations into their teaching to help students connect the content
to practical applications.
-The teacher incorporate technology into their teaching to keep high school students interested
and engaged.
-The teacher treats all students with fairness and avoid favoritism.
The teacher interacts with the students effectively, it fosters a nice atmosphere, and positive
communication.
3. How do the developmentally appropriate teaching practices improve the students’ learning
ability?
The teachers develop mentally appropriate teaching practices to improve the students learning is
by facilitating the growth of student and by making informed decisions that consider each
student's individual needs and the awareness of effective early learning strategies.
1. I realized that teaching tools are very important as they provide continuous guidance to teachers
throughout the day.
2. I believe that the content must be appropriate or aligned with the grade year of the student because
of the capacity of understanding they have.
3. I feel that a well-defined and stated learning objective are essential as they provide students with a
clear goal to work towards in their studies.
4. When I become a teacher, I will do my best in doing my lesson plan that ensures daily classroom
activities providing students with long-term progress towards goals and individual educational
plans, requiring effort and effort.
