The Nature of Inquiry


1. When do you make inquiry? How should you make inquiry?
- You make an inquiry when you are investigating or asking questions about something you are inquisitive
about. You need to collect data, meaning, facts and information about the object of your inquiry and
examine such data carefully.
2. Why is inquiry a problem-solving method? How does it make you like a scientist?
- It is a situation where you need to probe, investigate, or ask questions to find answers or solutions to
what you are worried or doubtful about, inquiry is a problem- solving technique. Inquiry is a problem
that needs answers in which you need to find using techniques such as asking questions, formulas and
investigation.
3. How does inquiry elevate your thinking power?
- It gives you the sense of wanting to find the answer. It stimulates your brain for you to work more as you
slowly unlock the answers to your inquiry.
4. Of what benefit is cooperative learning in inquiry?
- Answering questions is not easy as well as investigating alone. You need someone with you to help you
and it is where cooperative learning comes in. It makes your work easier and faster
5. What are the hindrances to scientific inquiry? Explain each briefly.
● Tradition- scientific inquiry doesn’t believe in traditions. They mostly believe in experiments and
science which has been proved. But as we all know traditions have been there even before science so it
could block everything science is telling us about the things that we’ve been believing.
● Authority- people don't believe in things without proof as well as authority you can’t make someone
believe you if you are someone ordinary. Like you cannot just say things about health and medicine if
you are someone who is not a medical professional.
● Inaccurate Observation- this is wrong information or sometimes is exaggerated information to gain
attention. It obviously contradicts science.
● Selective Observation- this is where bias comes from you have the idea from yourself and it is what
you just believe and nothing can change that. Whatever you see and believe from the start will always be
your idea .
● Illogical Reasoning- from the word itself illogical means it has no other basis and it wasn’t verified.
● Mystification- This are things that cannot be understood and also it is not verified and has no scientific
inquiry.
● To err is Human- arrows that were made by humans but didn’t even make an effort to correct it. They
would just tell you that humans make mistakes when in fact they didn’t do anything to correct that
mistake or make improvements.
● Dogmatism- prohibiting to use topics that are counter to the doctrines of institutions of the government.
Research
6. Explain research.
- It is inquiring or investigating about your chosen research topic by asking questions that will make you
engage yourself in top-level thinking strategies of interpreting, analyzing and criticizing
7. How are research and inquiry related?
- Inquiry is part of the research as it is about asking questions to find answers into specific topics that you
want to study.
8. Why is research important?
- Without research everything that we have now is nothing. Research discovers everything that we have
now from new inventions, medicines and other new technology that we are using right now.
9. Describe the scientific method. Give the steps of the Scientific Method.
- Using science as a method of researching. It is about testing ideas in the public.
- Steps of the scientific method
● Identifying the Problem
● Formulating Hypothesis
● Conducting Investigation
● Organizing and Analyzing Data
● Forming Conclusion
10. Explain hypothesis.
- Possible answers for the problem. It may occur while having an investigation.
11. Why should research findings be made public?
- As research involves the public appearance as one of the steps in research involves asking questions
means you need to involve the public. They are also involved in the experiments and testing the products
or the things in the said research
12. Conduct an experiment using the given data:

EDUC 2 - Facilitating the Learner- Centered Teaching

Study Questions
1. Why is Education 2- Facilitating Learning a part of education curriculum?
- It is for us the future teachers would know how to facilitate and help the students as our teaching should
always focus on the students. Most of us are not yet ready to facilitate and teach students. We still don’t
know how to properly facilitate them. It became part of our curriculum for us to learn more and gain
knowledge.

COGNITIVE
2. What is the major role of the teacher in the total development of the learner?
- The teacher is the one who would help and facilitate them with their development. Sometimes parents
are not enough in facilitating the development of their child especially in terms of mentally and social
capacity of the child.
3. How is cognitive development related to physical, emotional and social development?
- Cognitive development is connected with everything if we are physically, emotionally and socially okay
means we are also mentally healthy. As we develop the three we also develop our brain. As we know
brain controls everything. Cognitive development means our development in different aspects of our
body.
4. How is cognitive development inferenced by environment?
- The child must accommodate to the constraints that environmental structures and contingencies
impose upon behavior, but these structures and contingencies are assimilated to the extent that they
become incorporated into child’s behavior. What is assimilated is sometimes said to be a structure,
such as mental representation.
5. How can the teacher help the learner in the total cognitive development as the learner interplays with the
environment?
- a child's mental functioning results in a useful adaptation of the child to the environment, and
adaptation contains two complementary processes- accommodation and assimilation. The teacher is
one of the people who help the students in the total cognitive development of the child. As they were
out of their comfort zones.
6. Define Schema? Cite example to explain the term.
- processes of assimilation and accommodation can occur simultaneously. In all cases, they are
complementary forms of adaptation to the environment. For example, "going to the doctor" could
include expectations for what will happen during the appointment, such as a physical examination and
discussion of symptoms.
METACOGNITION
7. Explain in your own words metacognition. Give example to illustrate the four categories of metacognition.
- Metacognition is not just about knowledge but also the experience you acquire while learning.
● Person Variables- knows about his or her strengths and weaknesses in learning and processing
information.
● Task Variables- examples include activating prior knowledge before studying a technical article,
using a glossary to look up unfamiliar words, or realizing that a paragraph has to be read multiple
times to be understood.
● Strategies Variables- An example of this is the knowledge that reading an academic article takes
more effort to understand and remember than any passage from a novel.
8. Which of the seven teaching strategies can be best help to you as a learner? Why?
- For me as a learner I can learn the best if I have a study and learning strategy. As someone who has
other things to do at home it is best to have a learning strategy for me to learn as I learn best with this
kind of teaching strategy from having recitations and asking questions to the teacher.
9. If you were a teacher, what learning strategy would you prefer to use? Why?
- The learning strategy that I'll use is to teach students study or learning strategies. For me this is most
effective and helpful to students as they would attentively listen to your discussions as they know that
soon I'll ask questions after the discussion.
10. Illustrate using a table the differences between novice and expert learner.

Novice Expert

● represent problems at deep structural levels ● represent problems in terms of surface or


in terms of basic principles within a superficial characteristics
domain ● learning this skill or area for an extended
● an individual who has just begun to learn a period and has reached the highest level of
field or skill skill or knowledge acquisition

COGNITIVE AND METACOGNITIVE FACTORS


11. Read and analyze the 14 learner-centered psychological principles. Which is the most applicable in
learning? What principles seem similar or identical? Explain.
- For me the most applicable in learning is motivational and emotional influences on learning. I think
having motivation in learning makes the learners more productive and it is most likely to be efficient
and successful. And a child who is emotionally okay makes more work and has a successful
outcome than a child who is not emotionally okay.
- The principles that are similar are strategic thinking and thinking about thinking. As they both focus
on the development of the learners and enhancing their knowledge that they already have.

DEVELOPMENTAL THEORIES

EDUC 7- The Teacher and the School Curriculum

Study Questions
1. What are the levels in Philippines education?
● Basic Education
● Technical Vocational Education
● Higher Education
2. Name and explain the role of the teacher in curriculum development
● Knower- she learns the lesson/subject matter and masters it.
● Writer- records the subject matter and content of the lesson. From modules, manuals and
references.
● Planner- she plans the daily curriculum as well as monthly and yearly. She also plans advanced
lesson materials as per what is written in her lesson plan.
● Initiator- he role of teacher is not being afraid to try something and to make the initiative in
things.
● Innovator- teachers need to innovate their way of teachings as the curriculum always changes. It
is one of the roles of a teacher to immediately make things work even with a short time notice.
● Implementer- as a teacher they need to implement the curriculum. The role of the teacher is to
implement and teach the curriculum to the learners.
● Evaluator- your role is to determine if the objective is achieved throughout the lesson. It is also
your role to know if there is something you need to modify or teminate.
3. How do we view/approach the school curriculum?
Enumerate the different ways under the following criteria:
A. As a content of body of knowledge
- Significance
- Validity
- Utility
- Learnability
- Articulation
- Feasibility
- Interest
B. As a process
- Instruction
- Implementation
- Teaching
C. As a product
- Knowledge
- Skills
- Values
4. Differentiate the 3 types of curriculum
- Teacher centered- means the focus is the teacher. It is the benefit that the teacher would get
whether she teach or not
- Subject centered- the teacher would just want to meet the said curriculum and would not care if
the students learned something ot not/ the important thing is she finished the subject on the given
time.
- Learner-centered- this type of curriculum is what a teacher should be using. Their best interest is
the learning of the child. They can slow down the lesson if the learner cannot cope up with the
lesson.
5. Enumerate the stages of curriculum development
- Curriculum Planning
- Curriculum Designing
- Curriculum Implementing
- Curriculum evaluation

EDUC 2 - Facilitating the Learner- Centered Teaching

Study Questions
1. Why is Education 2- Facilitating Learning a part of education curriculum?
- As a student who wants to be a teacher in the future, learning how to facilitate the learners correctly is a
big help for us.there are many types of teaching approaches such as teacher centered. As these different
approaches might not benefit the students it is good that education 2 is part of the curriculum.

COGNITIVE
2. What is the major role of the teacher in the total development of the learner?
- Teachers are the ones who facilitate the development of the learner. They are the ones who watch and
teach the students the things they still don’t know. As the learners grow they need some guidance not
just the parents but someone who would teach them about the society and other things.
3. How is cognitive development related to physical, emotional and social development?
- Cognitive development is everything. If you don’t develop this you cannot also develop physically,
emotionally and socially. It’s not that you’ll not fully develop but there would be a gap or something is
empty. As it is connected in all the development of the body
4. How is cognitive development inferenced by environment?
- the child’s mental functioning results in a useful adaptation of the child to environment, and adaptation
contains two complementary processes- accommodation and assimilation. The child must
accommodate to the constraints that environmental structures and contingencies impose upon
behavior, but these structures and contingencies are assimilated to the extent that they become
incorporated into child’s behavior.
5. How can the teacher help the learner in the total cognitive development as the learner interplays with the
environment?
- Society establishes and maintains schools to provide the means of stimulating the amount and kind of
cognitive growth that presumably would not occur if there were no schools. This does not mean,
however, that the community and the schools can afford not to be concerned about the other
dimensions of development.
6. Define Schema? Cite example to explain the term.
- processes of assimilation and accommodation can occur simultaneously. In all cases, they are
complementary forms of adaptation to the environment.when a child is young, they may develop a
schema for a dog. They know a dog walks on four legs, is hairy, and has a tail.
METACOGNITION
7. Explain in your own words metacognition. Give example to illustrate the four categories of metacognition.
- Metacognition is about experiences you gain while learning.
● Person variables- the comprehension that a library-based study session would be more fruitful
than studying in a loud or crowded dormitory.
● Task variables- you may be aware that it will take more time for you to read and comprehend a
science text than it would for you to read and comprehend a novel.
● Strategy variables- activating prior knowledge before studying a technical article, using a
glossary to look up unfamiliar words, or realising that a paragraph has to be read multiple times
to be understood.
8. Which of the seven teaching strategies can be best help to you as a learner? Why?
- For me it is best to use the “Have students make predictions about information to be presented next
based on what they have read.” as it stimulates the brain of the students. It makes them excited for the
lesson whether their predictions are correct or not.
9. If you were a teacher, what learning strategy would you prefer to use? why?
- I would prefer to teach students study or learning strategies. It is for them to study alone even without
my help and guidance. It is also good for them to enhance their study time.
10. Illustrate using a table the differences between novice and expert learner.

Novice Expert

● phenomena in the domain in relation to ● learning this skill or area for an extended
higher-order principles. period and has reached the highest level of
● who has just begun to learn a field or skill skill or knowledge acquisition
● experts represent problems at deep
structural levels in terms of basic
principles within a domain
COGNITIVE AND METACOGNITIVE FACTORS
11. Read and analyze the 14 learner-centered psychological principles. Which is the most applicable in
learning? What principles seem similar or identical? Explain.
- the most applicable in learning is motivational and emotional influences on learning.learners should
have motivation in learning as this would give them the energy to study more.
- Strategic thinking and thinking about thinking are similar. They both focus on the learning
outcomes.
