PREFACE
Field Study 2 is school-based and allows pre-service teachers to
participate and assist in limited actual teaching-learning activities that relate to
assessment of learning, preparation of instructional materials, preparation of
the bulletin boards, and other routines in the classroom.

It is intended to provide practical learning experiences in which the FS


students can be engaged in the dynamics of the teaching-learning process. It
is also intended to help the FS students observe how principles of teaching
and learning are applied by their Resource Teachers/Cooperating Teachers to
make the teaching–learning process interactive, meaningful, fun and exciting.

This Field Study book manual ensures that our pre-service teachers
are properly guided and learn correct concepts and theories, and gain
meaningful experiences with the help of their Resource Teachers/Cooperating
Teachers. This contains learning episodes like Responsibilities of a Teacher,
Qualities and Skills of a Good Teacher, Writing My Learning/Lesson Plans,
Teaching Demonstration, Selected Response Test Type: The Multiple Choice
Questions (MCQ’S), The Table of Specifications (TOS), Basics of Item
Analysis, Instructional Material Development, Making a Doable Action
Research Proposal. This slim volume provides the FS students and the
instructor with suggested activities and questions that lead to the formulation of
new and meaningful insights into the teaching- learning process. Using the
tenets of the Philippine Professional Standards for Teachers (PPST) as a
framework, the competencies included in the activity sheets sum up the
necessary knowledge, skills, and attitude of the pre-service teachers.

LEARNING EPISODE 1:

Responsibilities, Qualities and Skills of a


Good Teacher

In the dynamic landscape of education, the role of a teacher is pivotal in


shaping the minds and futures of the next generation. A good teacher is not
merely a dispenser of information, but a dedicated guide, mentor, and
facilitator of learning. The responsibilities of a teacher extend far beyond the
confines of a classroom, encompassing the realms of inspiration, knowledge
dissemination, and character development. To excel in this noble profession,
a teacher must possess a unique blend of qualities that foster a positive
learning environment and promote holistic growth in students.
This episode delves into the multifaceted responsibilities, essential
qualities and skills that define a good teacher, shedding light on the profound
impact they have on the lives they touch. In this episode, you will gain a
comprehensive understanding of the responsibilities, qualities, and skills that
defined a good teacher, enabling you to excel in your future teaching roles
and positively impact lives of your students. But what about the
responsibilities of the teachers, do responsibilities change? What qualities and
skills do good teachers possess?

By the end of this module on the responsibilities, qualities and skills of a good
teacher, participants will be able to:

✔ describe how teachers perform their responsibilities,

✔ identify the qualities and skills a good teacher must possess, and

✔ assess yourself in relation to the qualities and skills a good teacher


should possess.

The most important responsibility of a teacher is to search and construct


meaningful educational experiences for students to become real-world
problem solvers, creative in generating ideas, and to develop in them powerful
skills and good habits of mind and heart (Lanier, 1997). The duties and
responsibilities of the teachers are specified in the Philippine Constitution, in
the Code of Ethics for Professional Teachers, and in the Family Code of the
Philippines.

To be specific, here are some of the important functions associated with


being a teacher:

● Plan, prepare and deliver lessons that facilitate active learning.

● Manage student behavior in the classroom by establishing and


enforcing rules and procedures. Maintain discipline in accordance with
the rules and disciplinary systems of the school.
● Provide appropriate feedback on work and monitor the progress of
individual students and use information to adjust teaching strategies.
● Maintain accurate and complete records of students' progress and
development. Update all necessary records accurately and completely.
Assign and grade class work, homework, tests and assignments.
● Communicate necessary information regularly to students, colleagues
and parents regarding student progress and student needs.
● Establish and communicate clear objectives for all learning activities.

● Prepare the learning environment/classroom for class activities.


Provide a variety of learning materials and resources for use in
educational activities.
● Demonstrate preparation and skill in working with students from
diverse cultural, economic and ability backgrounds
● Encourage parent and community involvement, obtain information for
parents when requested, promptly return phone calls and answer
emails
● Participate in appropriate professional and extracurricular activities
such as social activities, sporting activities, clubs and student
organizations as directed.
● Perform other duties as assigned.

For a period of 15 years, Robert Walker compiled his students’ writing


assignments and discussions about the teacher who had a great impact on
their life. His study revealed the following first 12 qualities of teachers most
learners described to have impact on their lives (found also in Module 2 of
The Teaching Profession):

1. What task/function is most often performed by the teachers in all the
three levels of the educational system? What do you think is the
reason?

2. Which function(s) is/are least performed by the teachers in the three


levels of the educational system? What do you think is the reason?
10

3. What qualities and skills most often possessed by the teachers in all
the three levels of the educational system? What do you think is the
most important?

4. Which qualities and skills seldom possessed by the teachers but are
important? Why are they important?

Make a brief reflection on …

“How do teachers’ responsibilities affect their lives?” “How do teachers’


qualities affect their teaching?”

Teachers' responsibilities affect their lives, in a way that what happened in the
classroom can affect what will happen in their respective home, and what
happened in their home can actually influence what will happen in the
classroom. Just like the movie "Beyond the Blackboard", the message of the
movie entails a very nice relationship between being a teacher and being a
mother and a wife. But, the responsibility of being a teacher is very close to
what an individual is doing.

Learning Episode 2:

Making a Doable Action


Research Proposal
15

This episode will help you develop your skills in making a doable action
research proposal based from your observations in the previous episodes
both in FS 1 and FS 2. This will also introduce you the steps of formulation a
doable action research proposal. This will focus on the guiding principles on
how to address the gaps in observable instant problematic situations and
instances that need immediate solutions in the classrooms.

The new normal, which is also coined as the NOW normal, brought about
a lot of controversies, problems and issues in almost all of the aspects of the
educational set-up. Your previous varied exposures to the different classroom
scenarios also introduced different possible instant problems that need to be
addressed. This is where the writing of a doable action research proposal will
have to come in. With the classroom-based problems that you encountered,
you are required to provide instant solutions to address those gaps, be it in
assessment, classroom strategies, teacher’s interventions, school
administrators’ readiness, and stakeholders’ participation, among others.

Based from what you have experienced and observed, what will be your
plans? How will you solve and address the problem? How will you strategize?
What will be your approach?

The general objective of this episode is for you to come up with a doable
action research proposal based from the observed instant problems and
issues from the different exposures and actual observations in the classrooms
by using the guidelines presented.
At the end of this learning episode, you are expected to:
✔ Define the focus of your study.

✔ Clearly identify variables to be measured.

✔ Indicate the various steps to be involved.

✔ Establish the limits of your study.

In schools, action research refers to a wide variety of evaluative,


investigative, and analytical research methods designed to diagnose
problems or weaknesses—whether organizational, academic, or instructional
—and help educators develop practical solutions to address them quickly and
efficiently. Action research may also be applied to programs or educational
techniques that are not necessarily experiencing any problems, but that
16

educators simply want to learn more about and improve. The general goal is
to create a simple, practical, repeatable process of iterative learning,
evaluation, and improvement that leads to increasingly better results for
schools, teachers, or programs.
Action research may also be called a cycle of action or cycle of inquiry,
since it typically follows a predefined process that is repeated over time. A
simple illustrative example:
● Identify a problem to be studied

● Collect data on the problem


● Organize, analyze, and interpret the data
● Develop a plan to address the problem
● Implement the plan
ACTIVITY● SHEET
Evaluate the results of the actions taken
● Identify a new problem
● Repeat the process

So, in this episode, you will be required to come up with a doable action
research proposal with the following guides:

Activity 1. Identifying Possible Sources of Action research Proposal


Title
Enumerate five (5) possible sources of problems that can be solved by
research.
1. Person experience
2. Practical experience
3. Critical appraisal of literature
4. Existing theories
5. Social issues

Activity 2. You will be required to do some researches from the different


websites or sources (except Wikipedia) to do the following:

A. Give three (3) goals of Action-Based Research:

No Goals of Action-Based Research Source/ Link:


.
1 To create a simple, practical, repeatable The glossary of education
process of iterative learning reform for journalist parents
and community members
17

2 Evaluation and improvement that leads to


increasingly better results for schools,
teachers and programs

3 Diagnose problems or weakness wether


organizational, academic or institutional

ACTIVITY SHEET
B. Based from the possible sources of problems, enumerate the top five (5)
pressing problems that you have encountered, observed, or experienced
during your Field Study exposure:

1. Violence against women


2. Has several questions to be answered during practical experiences
3. Read more articles
4. Used many theories
5. Gender equality

Visit the following sites and study the given example and answer the
following:

tinyurl.com/FS2AROutline
tinyurl.com/ResPropGuide

1. What should be considered in writing a good title for an action research?

The “title” should be descriptive, direct, accurate, appropriate, interesting,


concise, precise, unique, and should not be misleading, need to be drafted
correctly, accurately, carefully, and meticulously. It should have “just enough
details” to arouse the interest and curiosity of the reader so that the reader
then goes ahead with studying the abstract and then if still interested, the full
paper

2. How will you write a good introduction?

The introduction serves the purpose of leading the reader from a general
subject area to a particular field of research. It establishes the context of the
research being conducted by summarizing current understanding and
18

background information about the topic, stating the purpose of the work in the
form of the hypothesis, question, or research problem, briefly explaining your
rationale, methodological approach, highlighting the potential outcomes your
study can reveal, and describing the remaining structure of the paper.
Establish an area to research by:

Highlighting the importance of the topic, and/or Making general statements


about the topic, and/or presenting an overview on current research on the
subject. Identify a research niche by: opposing an existing assumption, and/or
revealing a gap in existing research, and/or formulating a research question or
problem, and/or continuing a disciplinary tradition. Place your research within
the research niche by: stating the intent of your study, outlining the key
characteristics of your study, describing important results, and giving a brief
overview of the structure of the paper.

3. What is the importance of the statement of the problem?


The importance of the statement of the problem is it introduce the reader to
the importance of the topic being studied. The reader is oriented to the
ACTIVITY SHEET of the study and the research questions or hypotheses to follow.
significance
Places the problem into a particular context that defines the parameters of
what is to be investigated.
Provides the framework for reporting the results and indicates what is
probably necessary to conduct the study and explain how the findings will
present this information.

Reflect on the following:


A. If you will write your own action research based from your Field Study
experiences and exposures, what will be your top three (3) objectives:

1. To determine ESL writers writing behavior during the writing process;


2. To determine the meta cognitive strategies used by ESL during writing
process;
3. To determine ESL writers' audience awareness during the writing process.

B. What will be your key variables of the study, method of measurement and
the unit of measurement:

1. Research Design:

The qualitative data were collected via interviews which were transcribed and
then interpreted through a thematic analysis approach. Also the researcher
observed the process of teaching writing, providing some quantitative data as
well.

The research design involved developing an interview based on literature


analysis. The questions used targeted at going into detail in the research
questions.

2. Research Participants:

Freshmen students at Central Mindanao University were suggested being


interviewed concerning metacognitive learning strategies (MLS) in their
course of Academic Writing. In the class there were 20 students, however,
just 15 students volunteered to respond the interview questions. Students
were from different places around the Philippines which makes the sample
representative. The students’ English Language level was upper-intermediate

Learning Episode 3:

Writing My Learning/
Lesson Plans
26

This learning episode of the FS course is concerned in writing


lesson plans or learning plans. A lesson plan is important as a
cornerstone of successful teaching practice. You don’t go into a battle
without a plan. Walking into a room full of young people and expecting
them to engage and respond to you with nothing prepared is a recipe
for disaster. Through trial and error, you will reach that level where a
couple of quick notes in your day-planner will be all the preparation you
need. However, when you begin teaching, lesson planning is an
essential skill for you to develop.

At the end of this Episode, I must have:


 explained the importance of lesson/learning plans;
 written lesson/learning plans using the specified learning
competencies, reflections, and effective communication
skills;
 revised the lesson/learning plans based on the feedback
given by the Resource teacher;
 cited some problems encountered in writing
lesson/learning plans; and
 used professional reflection and learning to improve
practice.

Writing My Lesson/Learning Plans

Lesson Plan/Learning Plan – This refers to the blueprint of the daily


teaching and learning activities. It is a step-by-step guide which helps
teachers in maintaining the quality of instruction. Lesson plans consist of
essential components such as learning outcomes, learning content, resources
and procedures. An effective lesson plan has a great impact on the teaching-
learning process. It is a must that teachers plan their lessons effectively to
ensure a successful instructional experience. There are three types of lesson
plans: detailed, semi-detailed and brief. Some schools design their own
27

lesson plan template which includes their vision, mission, goals and core
values.

A lesson plan is the instructor’s road map of what students need to learn
and how it will be done effectively during the class time. Then, you can design
appropriate learning activities and develop strategies to obtain feedback on
student learning. Having a carefully constructed lesson plan for each 3-hour
lesson allows you to enter the classroom with more confidence and
maximizes your chance of having a meaningful learning experience with your
students.

A successful lesson plan addresses and integrates three key


components:
 Learning Objectives
 Learning activities
 Assessment to check for student understanding

A lesson plan provides you with a general outline of your teaching
goals, learning objectives, and means to accomplish them, and is by no
means exhaustive. A productive lesson is not one in which everything goes
exactly as planned, but one in which both students and instructor learn from
each other.

The Department of Education has provided templates for Detailed Lesson


Plan (DLP) and Daily Lesson Log (DLL). This was done to institutionalize
instructional planning which is vital to the teaching-learning process.
Guidelines were formulated to assist teachers in planning, organizing and
managing their lessons to meet the needs of the diverse learners.

Teachers must also keep in mind that in stating the learning outcomes,
the three domains must be considered (Cognitive, Affective and
Psychomotor). Outcomes must be stated in terms that are specific,
measurable, attainable, realistic and time-bound (SMART). The cognitive
domain includes remembering, understanding, applying, analyzing, evaluating
and creating.
28

When writing lesson plans, the learning outcomes, activities and


assessment must be constructively aligned. The instructional strategies used
must help in the attainment of the learning outcomes. The modes of
assessment must determine if the outcomes were attained at the end of the
lesson.

BEFORE CLASS: STEPS FOR PREPARING A LESSON PLAN

Listed below are 6 steps for preparing your lesson plan before your
class.

1. Identify the learning objectives


2. Plan the specific learning activities
3. Plan to assess student understanding
4. Plan to sequence the lesson in an engaging and meaningful manner
5. Create a realistic timeline
6. Plan for a lesson closure

DURING THE CLASS: PRESENTING YOUR LESSON PLAN

Letting your students know what they will be learning and doing in
class will help keep them more engaged and on track. Providing a meaningful
organization of the class time can help students not only remember better, but
also follow your presentation and understand the rationale behind the planned
learning activities. You can share your lesson plan by writing a brief agenda
on the whiteboard or telling students explicitly what they will be learning and
doing in class.

AFTER THE CLASS: REFLECTING ON YOUR LESSON PLAN

Take a few minutes after each class to reflect on what worked well and
why, and what you could have done differently. Identifying successful and less
successful organization of class time and activities would make it easier to
adjust to the contingencies of the classroom. If needed, revise the lesson
plan.

All teachers require a lesson plan that is thoughtfully prepared


regardless of their ability, experience, or what their field of training involves.
The importance of a lesson plan is emphasized by the need for clarity and
comprehension regarding how the entire learning process will be
handled as well as how students can understand and store the knowledge
that is being passed onto them.

Lesson plans are necessary for helping students accomplish their


goals within a learning environment on a short-term and long-term
basis. Studies show the value of envisioning success in order to attain
it. Similarly in a classroom setting, failing to have a lesson plan in place
29

minimizes the prospects of envisioning certain outcomes and fulfilling your


expectations.

It is essential for educators to prepare their lessons on a daily basis


beforehand and implement the most ideal teaching methods. Attending
classroom sessions without a lesson plan is detrimental to teachers and
students. When an educator is not properly prepared, they will create the
impression of being unprofessional and incompetent among their peers,
administrative staff, and students.

Purpose of Lesson Planning

A lesson plan serves as a guide that a teacher uses every day to


determine what the students will learn, how the lesson will be taught as well
as how learning will be evaluated. Lesson plans enable teachers to function
more effectively in the classroom by giving a detailed outline that they adhere
to during each class. This helps to make sure that every moment spent in
class is used to teach meaningful concepts and have worthwhile
discussions rather than figuring out what you are supposed to do as time goes
on.

Lesson plans generally consist of essential components such as


objectives, requirements, resources, procedures, and evaluation techniques.
Since every part of an effective lesson plan has an impact on the learning
process for students, it is crucial to handle them by taking a strategic
approach.

A lesson plan is a vital step towards creating a complete curriculum.


It delves deeper into the details to make sure that you provide your students
with the right information at an appropriate time while making your career
easier by giving you a clear sense of direction that you can follow each day.

Importance of Lesson Planning in Teaching

The basis of creating a lesson plan is the objectives of learning and


giving learners a chance to discover, establish, and demonstrate what they
are taught. It facilitates a learning environment that focuses on the class as a
whole rather than concentrating on the teacher.

All effective teachers have a plan that they consider when they deliver
training. The plan may be a simple list or a more complex system that is
structured and detailed. Lesson plans are essential tools that teachers
develop to guide their training sessions. They are properly planned, prepared,
and executed to achieve specified learning outcomes.

A conventional lesson plan usually consists of details pertaining to the


lesson, the outcomes that will be addressed and the method that will be used
as well as the materials and activities that will be included to engage and
30

evaluate the students. The last part of a lesson plan deals with the
assessment session from both the teacher’s and student’s standpoints.

Having a lesson plan that has been carefully constructed for every
lesson boosts your confidence and maximizes the possibility of having
purposeful learning sessions with your students whenever you enter the
classroom. It equips you with a general outline of your goals and the
things you need to achieve them.

When a lesson is productive, it not only refers to everything going


according to your plan, it also ensures that teachers and students learn from
each other. Reflecting on lesson plans after every class gives teachers insight
into what worked effectively and the reasons why in addition to what could
have been handled in a different way. This makes it possible to adjust to
unexpected occurrences in the classroom and make changes to the
lesson plan when necessary.

Benefits of Lesson Planning

 Providing guidance to teachers


 Clarifying the learning objectives for teachers
 Improving the quality of lessons
 Enabling visualization of the entire teaching process
 Making learning easier for students

All teachers need to maximize the importance of a lesson plan to


enhance how they educate their learners. A lesson plan works like a
map that directs you on how to cover different topics within the curriculum and
serves as an amazing tutoring tool. Through lesson planning, teachers can
understand what is expected from the lesson and enable the students to
understand their objectives.

With all the information in mind, you are all set I writing your lesson
plan. Based on the instructions given by your Cooperating Teacher, prepare
your lesson plan/s based on the learning competencies of the lesson.
Consider the age appropriateness and level of communication of your
students.

Request lesson plan exemplars/lesson plan templates from your


Resource Teacher. If not available, you can make use of the basic
components of a lesson plan.

Instructional Material Development

As a pre-service teacher, have you thought about what will make your future
students highly engaged and motivated to learn in your course? Some research
studies revealed that students taught with instructional materials performed
significantly better than those taught without instructional materials and also the use
of instructional materials generally improved students’ understanding of concepts and
led to high academic achievements. In this episode, you will be provided with an
opportunity to develop instructional material/s for a particular unit of study or lesson.
46

It also allows you to examine your knowledge about creating instructional materials
based on the Analyze, Design, Develop, Implement, and Evaluate (ADDIE) model.

In this episode, you must have applied the principles in creating effective
instructional materials using the ADDIE Model, which can help optimize students'
learning and developed localize/indigenize or digitize instructional materials to
respond to the needs of the K-12 classroom.

Instructional materials enhance the teaching-learning process, conveying the


course content or information needed to acquire knowledge and skills. They are
those materials that help the teachers to teach with ease and learners to learn
effectively. Instructional materials should appeal to the senses of seeing, touching,
smelling, feeling, and hearing. They include projected, non-projected, printed, and
objects, 3-dimensional objects produced through locally sourced materials, program
instruction, and instruction packages. Films, programmed materials, PowerPoint
slides, television, maps, charts, globes- are an example of instructional materials that
provide students with the experiences and activities that help them learn. E-books,
video lectures, interactive lessons, etc., are instructional materials that teachers
provide in the online environment.

It's essential to engage students in the instruction. If used and developed well,
it's the instructional materials that help students meet their desired learning goals,
better themselves, and succeed in the course. A teacher's role in instructional
delivery consists of several different tasks. These include analyzing learners'
background knowledge and instructional needs, assessing curriculum needs,
determining the course objectives, choosing appropriate teaching methodologies,
and conducting course evaluations. While developing instructional materials can
prove to be a difficult task for teachers, it's possible to do it with ease by applying
instructional design principles.

ADDIE Model is a classic model for instructional design. There have been
many books written about the ADDIE Model (see, for instance, Morrison, 2010; Dick
and Carey, 2004). ADDIE Model consists of the following:

Analyze: The "instructional problem" is defined, and learning objectives and


goals are determined; these are based on learning needs/performance
gaps (based on an assessment of the current situation) and available
resources.
Design: A strategic "blueprint" of the materials and methods needed to achieve
the learning objectives and goals is created. For example, describing what
content areas to be covered and storyboard outlining what will be covered
in the text, audio, video, etc.
Develop: Content based on the design blueprint is created and assembled into
an instructional package or curriculum, reviewed and revised based on
feedback received.
47

Implement: This phase encompasses procedures that prepare facilitators to


conduct and learners to participate in the learning event and actions that
support carrying out the activities and assessments as intended. The
implementation phase is also the beginning of evaluating the overall
efficacy curriculum.
Evaluate: There are two kinds of evaluation. The formative evaluation aims to
improve the quality of instruction—for example, through informal
observations of learner performance. Summative evaluation helps verify
the effectiveness of the instruction- for example, multiple-choice item test,
which could measure student performance. Most instructional material
should include objective tests, by-products, or performance assessments.
Some teachers collect feedback from students to adjust their instructional
strategies through course surveys, emails, etc.

Have this instructional design framework in mind as you analyze and reflect on
this episode. The ADDIE Model instructional design framework will be your guide in
developing your localize/indigenize and digitize instructional materials. Whatever
form instructional materials take, remember that it's essential to engage your
students.

An effective teacher makes it their business to create learning materials that


enhance instruction. To realize your Desired Learning Outcomes, you will work your
way through these steps:

Activity 1. My Slide Presentations


In this activity, create a digitize/computer-based instructional material in the
form of slide presentations. Use presentation software like Canva, Envato, Prezi,
Powtoon, Focusky, Keynote, Google Slides and the most popular one is PowerPoint.
You can also use a third party application to record your lecture like OBS, Screeny
and Camtasia. You can record your screen at the same time add your audio and
record yourself while doing your lecture/s. Presentation software helps organize your
lesson with a series of text and graphics, often with audio and video to capture your
learners' interest. As you prepare the digitize/computer-based instructional material,
have these guidelines in mind in making your slide presentations, and then use the
activity form below:
● There should be no more than two (2) fonts per slide. Use at least a 32 point
font. Keep size consistent and don't use all caps. It makes it difficult to read the
texts.
● If you want something to stand out in your presentation, you may use bold and
change the color of the text for your audience to be drawn to. Don't use Italics.
It makes your presentation hard to read. Avoid excessive rhetoric that is not
only redundant but also repetitive. Using lengthy text makes it difficult to
process the information.
● There should be no more than six bullets per slide (some authorities
recommend 4 or 5). No more than 6-7 words per bullet. Concise is best. A slide
presentation is not a book, so one thought per line is enough.
● Use a dark font on a light background and use a white or light font on a dark
background.
● Place graphics off-center. Placing a graphic on the left leads your eye to the
text.
● Select good illustrations and graphics. Every image has a good reason.

● Use animations to create drama. You don't have to give all the information at
once. Animations with noise can be annoying-use sparingly.
49

● Use the 10-20-30 rule. Using not more than ten slides in your presentation may
add to the keep it simple principle. Your presentation should not last more than
20 minutes, and the font size should be no smaller than 30.
● And an essential part, dazzle your audience with the information- not the
graphics or style. The medium is not the message- the information is. Please
keep it simple. Don't be a slave to your slides. Remember, you are the star, not
the presentation. You are the show.

LEARNING EPISODE 5:

Teaching Demonstration
57

This episode focuses on teaching demonstration and its careful


planning by the Resource Teachers to different groups of learners. It also
gives emphasis on the guidelines and tips on how to get it started. In this new
normal, teachers employ a new picture of demonstration due to the different
modalities of delivering the lessons.
In this episode, you will be given an opportunity to observe teachers on
how they will deliver their lessons to the learners. You will also study and
learn how to apply the process for your actual teaching internship. This is
school-based and allows you to participate and assist in a limited actual
teaching-learning activities that relate to assessment of learning, preparation
of instructional materials, and other routines in the classroom.
Being a candidate for the degree program, you need to show more
than just knowledge of your content area in the teaching demonstration, you
need to show that you have the pedagogical content knowledge. You need to
showcase the ability to select, structure and deliver complicated content so
that the students can learn it.

At the end of this Episode, you must be able to:


✔ Observe a teaching demonstration from a Resource Teacher.

✔ Apply the guidelines and tips on how to present a teaching


demonstration.
✔ Carefully plan a teaching demonstration.

✔ Execute a teaching demonstration well.

Before you will have to engage yourself in an actual teaching


demonstration, it is better for you to have a simple recall on the tips and
guides in planning a teaching demonstration. You have to always bear in mind
that a successful teaching demonstration comes down to careful planning and
58

practice. If you showcase your best teaching during your demo, you will go a
long way toward convincing the students and the observers that you can
handle the challenges of teaching day-to-day.

Here are some of the guidelines and tips that you need to remember:

A. Know your Audience


You need to be familiar if you will be teaching a class of actual
students, a group of faculty, the hiring committee if you are applying for
a teaching position, or some combination of these groups. You should
have the idea on the level of student should you be preparing for like
the majors, non-majors, graduate, among others.
If you are teaching a class of actual students, ask for a copy of
the course syllabus and any relevant assignments. Read the course
description and objectives, and review a copy of the textbook. It might
also help to get to know the students in general by looking at the
university’s website and, if possible, by visiting campus and chatting
directly with students. More realistically, you might attend a class at
your current institution on the topic you are going to be teaching and
then talk with the instructor, the TAs, and the students.
If you are teaching to faculty members posing as students, be
sure to indicate for them the level and background of the students for
whom your lesson would be intended, then pretend that the faculty
members are those students and teach at the correct level. Expect,
however, that faculty might ask questions at a higher level than would
actual students and don’t go overboard with pretending that they are
students (e.g., don’t confiscate a cell phone if one of them can’t stop
looking at it!).

B. Make your Materials Fit to the Course and the Time


If you’re given a topic to teach in an actual course, find out where that
topic fits into the course itself. What have the students learned
beforehand? What will they be learning afterward? What assignments
will they be working on? What textbook are the students using? Get a
copy and read the relevant sections.
If you’ve been given a broad topic area from which to select a
particular lesson, choose something that you can manage in the time
given. If you’re teaching for a full class period, aim to end no more than
5 to 10 minutes early for questions. Have a back-up plan in case for
any reason you end earlier.
If you’re only teaching a short lesson in 10 to 15 minutes, choose a
topic or lesson that will stand on its own in that time. Don’t squeeze a
50-minute lecture into 15 minutes. Plan enough time for any activities
you’ll include; they can sometimes run long if not properly planned and
managed.

C. Engage your Students


Remember, this is your teaching demo, not your research talk.
Don’t just lecture to the students; show that you can do something
59

more by engaging them with active learning. Get the students


interested, involved, and interacting positively with you and with one
another.
Use brief, meaningful activities that last no more than 5-7
minutes each. If you’re teaching faculty members, don’t expect them to
be any more interested in participating in activities than are students.
Create a handout, ask questions.
Start with a relevant hook to grab students’ interest (an alarming
statistic, a current event, a thought-provoking question, etc.)
If you’re teaching a small group of students, bring index cards
and black sharpies. Have the students write their names on the cards
and set them up on their desks. Doing so creates an instant connection
with students by allowing you to address them by name as you would
in a class of your own.

D. Use Technology Purposefully and Effectively


If you plan to use technology, be sure that it serves some clear and
relevant pedagogical aim; don’t use it just to impress the students or to
show off your techy side. Technology shouldn’t overwhelm the topic
you’re teaching, and the contribution that technology makes to student
learning should be obvious and significant. Handouts are often a better
alternative to technology, since they provide everyone with a concrete
takeaway by which to remember you and your demonstration.
Use visuals only to support your teaching and promote learning. For
example, PowerPoint slides should be used sparingly and should
ideally include questions or problems to which students can respond.
Remember, PowerPoint should support your teaching, it shouldn’t be
your centerpiece. If you do use a PowerPoint, be sure to tell students
that you’ll write on the board any key information that you would like
them to put in their own notes, otherwise students might try to write
down everything you have on your slides.
In terms of PowerPoint design, use pictures, colors, and animations,
but do so carefully, and don’t put too much text on any single slide.
Choose a light background and dark text, and make sure that the slides
are visible in a well-lit room. (You shouldn’t plan to use PowerPoint
slides in a darkened room unless you want to put students to sleep.)
Use the board only if your handwriting is good. When writing on the
board, don’t speak to it. That is, face the students and say whatever
you want them to hear, and then turn and write it on the board. Doing
so maintains your connection with the students and gives them an
opportunity to copy down what you write.
Plan for technology to break down. Have an alternative plan.
E. Have a Backup Plan. Have Another.
Create your ideal lesson plan, a contingency plan in case you run out
of time, a contingency plan in case you finish early and have too much
time remaining, a contingency plan in case students simply don’t
respond or if things are otherwise not working out as intended. Plan for
technology to fail and know what you’ll do if and when it does.
Plan more material than you can possible use, and make decisions in
the moment about what to leave out. Don’t indicate to your students,
however, that you’re cutting something out due to time constraints.
60

F. Practice. Practice. Practice.

Whether you’ve taught before or not, you can ask colleagues or


mentors for the opportunity to lead a session in their classes. Ask them
to observe your session and provide feedback. Alternately, gather
some colleagues, perhaps from different disciplines, to serve as a
group of students whom you can teach. Have them ask you questions
just like actual students would. After the lesson, have your colleagues
comment on your flow, on the way your topics connected with each
other, on your body language and any verbal or physical tics you might
have, and, of course, on how you might improve your overall
performance.
If you have taught before, review any observation reports you may
have from colleagues or mentors, as well as evaluation feedback from
students. Consider what has worked well and what hasn’t. What
improvements can you realistically make and practice before your
demonstration?

ACTIVITY SHEET
62

As you plan to begin your planning for the teaching demonstration, you
need to first assess yourself by asking a number of important questions as
you get started.

Ask the committee: I already have I have no


an idea idea at all
1. How much time will I have?
2. Whom I will be teaching?
3. At what level should my teaching be aimed?
4. Will a topic and/or materials be provided, or should I
select a topic and/or materials on my own?
5. if a topic is provided and if I am teaching in an actual
course, how does the topic fit into the course in
relation to other topics?
6. Can I get a copy of the syllabus?
7. What textbooks do the students use?
8. Have students been given any homework? If so, can
I get a copy of the assignment materials?
9. Where will I be teaching?
10. What sorts of technology or other resources are
available?
11. How and by whom will my teaching be evaluated?
If I am teaching actual students, will they provide any
feedback to the committee?

Ask yourself: I already have I have no


an idea idea at all
1. Exactly what information, and how much of it, do I
want to convey in the time I have?
2. What approach is most appropriate for the topic, the
students, and the institution itself?
3. Will I mostly lecture or will I involve students in a
discussion or an activity?
4. Do I want to use technology? If so, what will that
technology add to my demo in terms of helping
students learn?
5. Am I comfortable using the technology that is
available?

1. If you will be given the chance to conduct an actual teaching


demonstration to your major field of specialization, what will you consider
first and why?

Learning Episode 6:

THE TABLE OF SPECIFICATIONS (TOS)


68

To have a meaningful and successful accomplishment in this FS episode, be


sure to read through the whole episode before participating and assisting in your FS2
Resource Teacher’s class (any class modality). Note that all information and tasks you
will need to do before working on this episode.

At the end of this Learning Episode, I must be able to:


1. Identify the parts and uses of the Table of Specifications (TOS);
2. Explain the components of the TOS format;
3. Develop a TOS in a particular subject.

Table of Specifications (TOS)


✔ Blue print for test
o Blueprints are based on matching instructional objectives / course
content to test items in correct proportions
o Questions at the higher mental processes level subsume knowledge
and understanding and application levels.
✔ Purpose
o ensure proper emphasis given to all elements of a course of study
o content validity

✔ Guide for writing items


Detailed TOS (Test Blueprints) typically are designed based on:
▪ the list of course objectives,

▪ the topics covered in class,

▪ the amount of time spent on those topics,

▪ textbook chapter topics,

▪ and the emphasis and space provided in the text.

In some cases a great weight will be assigned to a concept that is extremely important,
even if relatively little class time was spent on the topic. How can the use of a TOS benefit
your students, including those with special needs? TOS benefits students in two ways.
1. Improves the validity of teacher- made tests,
2. Improves student learning as well.

TOS helps to ensure that there is a match between what is taught and what is tested.
Classroom assessment should be driven by classroom teaching which itself is driven by
course goals and objectives.
In the chain below, TOS provide the link between teaching and testing.
Objectives >>> Teaching >>> Testing
69

TOS help students at all ability levels learn better. By providing the table to students
during instruction, they can recognize the main ideas, key skills, and the relationships among
concepts more easily. TOS can act in the same way as a concept map to analyze content
areas.
Three steps are involved in creating a Test Blueprint:
● choosing the measurement goals and domain to be covered,

● breaking the domain into key or fairly independent parts- concepts, terms,
procedures, applications, and
● constructing the table.
Items are identified as belonging to two categories
12. Level on Bloom’s Taxonomy of Learning (1956)/ revised Bloom’s taxonomy
13. Detailed course content topics

Grading systems 1 5 class sessions 37.5% 37
TOTALS 4 class sessions 100% 100 points

How to do TOS?
5. Determine which topics will be included on the assessment. Typically, these
include lectures, discussions, readings, etc. or any other assigned
learning.
6. Estimate approximately howmuch timewas spent on each topic.
7. Add up the time spent per
8. Calculate the percentage of time spent per topic by dividing the time spent on
each topic by the total amount of time.
For example, on Grading Systems I spent 1.5 class sessions, thus
1.5/4.0 = 37.5%.

5. Determine how many questions or points should be


included on the exam. Estimate how much time students are
likely to spend on each item to be certain that students will
have an opportunity to answer all questions. This exam was
worth 100 points as one class session=3 hours. As a rule of
thumb, for a 50-minute class period an instructor should not
have more than about 50 multiple-choice items as it takes
students about 1 minute per question.

6. Calculate the number of items per topic based on the time


spent on topic. Using the example above, 1.5 class sessions
were spent on Grading Systems which equaled 37.5% of the
total time spent. To determine how many items/points should
be on Grading Systems, multiply 37.5% time 100 points which
equals 37.5 items rounded to 38.

7. Write or modify existing items based on the number of


items per topic. This will not only guide the instructor, it will
also guide students as topics that require more time on
instruction are typically more complex and/or more important.

SELECTED RESPONSE TEST


TYPE: THE MULTIPLE CHOICE
QUESTIONS (MCQ’s)
78

To have a meaningful and successful accomplishment in this FS episode, be sure to


read through the whole episode before participating and assisting in your FS2 Resource
Teacher’s class (any class modality). Note that all information and tasks you will need to do
before working on this episode.

At the end of this Learning Episode, I must be able to:


1. Identify the different types of selected response tests.
2. Determine the alignment of assessment type to the intended learning outcomes
3. Construct multiple choice items based on the basic test-making principles.

(BASICS OF TEST CONSTRUCTION)

Preparing test items


Two general types of exam questions useful for measuring student learning each with there
own sub-types:
1. Fixed-choice: (Selected-response)
2. Open-ended: (Constructed response)

Fixed-choice:
 Multiple-choice questions ask students to select the correct response from one or
more of the choices from a given list.
 True-false questions are typically used to measure student’s ability to identify whether
statements of fact are correct.
 Matching questions consist of a column of key words and a column of options, and
require students to match the options associated with a given key word(s).

Open-ended:
 Short answer questions direct students to supply the appropriate words, numbers, or
symbols to answer a question or complete a statement.

 Essay questions require students to demonstrate through writing his/her ability to a)


recall knowledge, b) organize this knowledge, and c) present the knowledge in a
logical, integrated answer.

THE MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION TEST TYPES/CONSTRUCTION


A multiple-choice test questions consist of three parts:
1. the stem, which asks the question, poses a problem, or presents an incomplete
sentence;
2. the correct response;
3. and OTHER (usually 3 or 4) alternative responses which are incorrect, these are
often called "distracters."

Direction: Read the following comments a teacher made about testing. Then answer the
questions that follow by circling the letter of the best answer.
Students go to school to learn, not to take tests. In addition, tests cannot be used to
indicate a student‘s absolute level of learning. All tests can do is rank students in order of
achievement, and this relative ranking is influenced by guessing, bluffing, and the subjective
opinions of the teacher doing the scoring. The teacher-learning process would benefit if we
did away with tests and depended on student self-evaluation.

2. Which one of the following unstated assumptions is this teacher making?


A. Students go to school to learn.
B. Teachers use essay tests primarily.
C. Tests make no contribution to learning.
D. Tests do not indicate a student‘s absolute level of learning.

Outcome: Identifies the meaning of specific testing instruments.


3. Which one of the following types of test is this teacher primarily talking about?
A. Diagnostic test.
B. Formative test.

C. Good, it has moderate internal validity and moderate external validity
D. Poor, it has low levels of both internal and external validity

Outcome: Analyze whether a word fits with the accepted definition of pragmatism.
2. Directions: Read carefully through the paragraph below, and decide which of the
options A-D is correct.
The basic premise of pragmatism is that questions posed by speculative
metaphysical propositions can often be answered by determining what the practical
consequences of the acceptance of a particular metaphysical proposition are in this
82

life. Practical consequences are taken as the criterion for assessing the relevance of
all statements or ideas about truth, norm and hope.
A. The word ―acceptance should be replaced by ―rejection.

Learning Episode 8:

BASICS OF ITEM ANALYSIS


89

To have a meaningful and successful accomplishment in this FS episode, be sure to


read through the whole episode before participating and assisting in your FS2 Resource
Teacher’s class (any class modality). Note that all information and tasks you will need to do
before working on this episode.

At the end of this Learning Episode, I must be able to:


1. Explain the meaning of item analysis, validity, reliability, item difficulty and
discrimination index;
2. Determine quality of a test item by its difficulty index, discrimination index and
plausibility of options.

(BASICS OF ITEM ANALYSIS)


What is Item Analysis ?
 process that examines student responses to individual test items assessing
quality items and the test as a whole
 valuable in improving items which will be used again in later tests and
eliminate ambiguous or misleading items
 valuable for increasing instructors' skills in test construction, and
 identifying specific areas of course content which need greater emphasis or
clarity.

Several Purposes
1. More diagnostic information on students
–Classroom level:
 determine questions most found very difficult/ guessing on,
–reteach that concept
 questions all got right –
–don't waste more time on this area
 find wrong answers students are choosing-
–identify common misconceptions
–Individual level:
 isolate specific errors this student made
2. Build future tests, revise test items to make them better
– know how much workin writing good questions
– SHOULD NOT REUSE WHOLE TESTS--> diagnostic teaching means
responding to needs of students, so after a few years a test bank is build up
and choose a tests for the class
– can spread difficulty levelsacross your blueprint (TOS)
90

3. Part of continuing professional development


– doing occasional item analysis will help become a better test writer
– documenting just how good your evaluation is
– useful for dealing with parents or administrators if there's ever a dispute
– once you start bringing out all these impressive looking stats, parents and
administrators will believe why some students failed.

Validity. Validity is the extent to which a test measures what it purports to measure or as
referring to the appropriateness, correctness, meaningfulness and usefulness of the specific
decisions a teacher makes based on the test results. These two definitions of validity differ in
the sense that the first definition refers to the test itself while the second refers to the
decisions made by the teacher based on the test. A test is .valid when it is aligned with the
learning outcome.
Reliability refers to the consistency of the scores obtained — how consistent they are for
each individual from one administration of an instrument to another and from one set of items
to another. We already gave the formula for computing the reliability of a test: for internal
consistency; for instance, we could use the split-half method or the Kuder-Richardson
formulae (KR-20 or KR-21)
Reliability and Validity are related concepts. If an instrument is unreliable, it cannot get
valid outcomes. As reliability improves, validity may improve (or it may not). However, if an
instrument is shown scientifically to be valid then it is almost certain that it is also reliable.

Item Analysis: Difficulty Index and Discrimination Index


There are two important characteristics of an item that will be of interest to the
teacher. These are: (a) item difficulty and (b) discrimination index. We shall learn how to
measure these characteristics and apply our knowledge in making a decision about the item
in question.
The difficulty of an item or item difficulty is defined as the number of students who are
able to answer the item correctly divided by the total number of students. Thus:
Item difficulty = number of students with correct answer/ total number of students.
The item difficulty is usually expressed in percentage.
Example: What is the item difficulty index of an item if 25 students are unable to answer it
correctly while 75 answered it correctly?

Here, the total number of students is 100, hence the item difficulty index is 75/100 or
75%.
Another example: 25 students answered the item correctly while 75 students did not. The
total number of students is 100 so the difficulty index is 25/100 or 25 which is 25%.
It is a more difficult test item than that one with a difficulty index of 75.
A high percentage indicates an easy item/question while a low percentage indicates a
difficult item.
One problem with this type of difficulty index is that it may not actually indicate that
the item is difficult (or easy). A student who does not know the subject matter will naturally be
unable to answer the item correctly even if the question is easy. How do we decide on the
basis of this index whether the item is too difficult or too easy?

DIFFICULTY INDEX TABLE


The following arbitrary rule is often used in the literature:
Range of Difficulty Index Interpretation Action
0.00 — 0.25 Difficult Revise or discard
0.26 — 0.75 Right difficulty Retain
0.76 — above Easy Revise or discard

Difficult items tend to discriminate between those who know and those who do not
know the answer. Conversely, easy items cannot discriminate between these two groups of
students. We are therefore interested in deriving a measure that will tell us whether an item
91

can discriminate between these two groups of students. Such a measure is called an index of
discrimination.

An easy way to derive such a measure is to measure how difficult an item is with
respect to those in the upper 25% of the class and how difficult it is with respect to those in
the lower 25% of the class. If the upper 25% of the class found the item easy yet the lower
25% found it difficult, then the item can discriminate properly between these two groups.

Thus:
Index of discrimination = DU — DL (U — Upper group; L — Lower group)
Example: Obtain the index of discrimination of an item if the upper 25% of the class had a
difficulty index of 0.60 (i.e. 60% of the upper 25% got the correct answer) while
the lower 25% of the class had a difficulty index of 0.20.
Here, DU = 0.60 while DL = 0.20,
Thus, index of discrimination = .60 - .20 = .40.

Discrimination index is the difference between the proportion of the top scorers who
got an item correct and the proportion of the lowest scorers who got the item right. The
discrimination index range is between -1 and +1. The closer the discrimination index is to +1,
the more effectively the item can discriminate or distinguish between the two groups of
students. A negative discrimination index means more from the lower group got the item
correctly. The last item is not good and so must be discarded.

Theoretically, the index of discrimination can range from -1.0 (when DU =0 and DL =
1) to 1.0 (when DU = 1 and DL = 0). When the index of discrimination is equal to -1, then this
means that all of the lower 25% of the students got the correct answer while all of the upper
25% got the wrong answer. In a sense, such an index discriminates correctly between the two
groups but the item itself is highly questionable. Why should the bright ones get the wrong
answer and the poor ones get the right answer? On the other hand, if the index of
discrimination is 1.0, then this means that all of the lower 25% failed to get the correct answer
while all of the upper 25% got the correct answer. This is a perfectly discriminating item and is
the ideal item that should be included in the test.

From these discussions, let us agree to discard or revise all items that have negative
discrimination index for although they discriminate correctly
between the upper and lower 25% of the class, the content of the item itself may be highly
dubious or doubtful.

DISCRIMINATION INDEX TABLE


We have the following rule of thumb:
Index Range Interpretation Action
-1.0 — -.50 Can discriminate but item is Discard
questionable
-.51 - 0.45 Non-discriminating Revise
0.46 — 1.00 Discriminating item Include

Example: Consider a multiple choice type of test of which the following data were obtained:
Item Options
A B* C D
1 0 40 20 20 Total
0 15 5 0 Upper 25%
0 5 10 5 Lower 25%

The correct response is B. Let us compute the difficulty index and index of
discrimination:
92

Difficulty, Index = no. of students getting correct response/total = 40/100 = 40%, within
range of a "good item"
The discrimination index can similarly be computed:
DU = no. of students in upper 25% with correct response/no. of students in the upper 25%
= 15/20 = .75 or 75%
DL = no. of students in lower 25% with correct response/ no. of students in the lower 25%
= 5/20 = .25 or 25%

Discrimination Index = DU — DL = .75 - .25 = .50 or 50%.


Thus, the item also has a "good discriminating power."
It is also instructive to note that the distracter A is not an effective distracter since
this was never selected by the students. It is an implausible distracter. Distracters C and D
appear to have good appeal as distracters. They are plausible distracters.
Index of Difficulty
Ru + RL
P= ___________ x 100
T
Where:
Ru — The number in the upper group who answered the item correctly.
RL — The number in the lower group who answered the item correctly.
T — The total number who tried the item.

Index of item Discriminating Power


Ru + RL
D=
½T
Where:
P percentage who answered the item correctly (index of difficulty)
R number who answered the item correctly
T total number who tried the item.

P= 8/20 x 100 = 40%

The smaller the percentage figure the more difficult the item
Estimate the item discriminating power using the formula below:
(Ru — RL) ( 6 – 2)
D= -------------- = ----------- = 0.40
½t 10

The discriminating power of an item is reported as a decimal fraction; maximum


discriminating power is indicated by an index of 1.00.
Maximum discrimination is usually found at the 50 percent level of difficulty
0.00 – 0.20 = Very difficult
0.21 – 0.80 = Moderately difficult
0.81 – 1.00 = Very easy
For classroom achievement tests, most test constructors desire items with indices of
difficulty no lower than 20 nor higher than 80, with an average index of difficulty from 30 or 40
to a maximum of 60.
The INDEX OF DISCRIMINATION is the difference between the proportion of the
upper group who got an item right and the proportion of the lower group who got the item
right. This index is dependent upon the difficulty of an item. It may reach a maximum value of
100 for an item with an index of difficulty of 50, that is, when 100% of the upper group and
none of the lower group answer the item correctly. For items of less than or greater than 50
difficulty, the index of discrimination has a maximum value of less than 100.
