CHAPTER 2, LESSON 5
PROCESSING

1. Yes, the teacher supports purposive learning by

designing lessons that relate to students’ lives and
interests, helping them see the practical application of
their knowledge. She uses real-world examples and
problem-solving activities to encourage critical thinking
and motivates students to take ownership of their
learning.
2. Purposive learning can be promoted in the classroom
by incorporating project-based learning, where students
work on meaningful projects that require critical thinking
and collaboration. Additionally, integrating technology
can enhance engagement and provide access to diverse
resources and perspectives. Encouraging student-led
discussions and allowing students to set their own
learning goals can also foster a sense of ownership and
relevance in their education. Finally, connecting lessons
to community issues or global challenges can help
students understand the importance of their learning in a
broader context.

REFLECTION

1. From that lesson, I realized that promoting purposive

learning not only enhances student engagement but also
helps them understand the relevance of their education
in real-world contexts, making their learning experiences
more meaningful.
2. I believe that by fostering purposive learning,
educators can empower students to take an active role in
their education, which ultimately leads to greater
motivation, deeper understanding, and a lifelong love of
learning.
3. I feel that when students are engaged in purposive
learning, they become more enthusiastic and committed
to their studies, as they can see how their education
connects to their lives and future aspirations.
4. When I become a teacher, I will prioritize purposive
learning by designing lessons that connect with students’
interests and real-world applications, encouraging them
to explore and take ownership of their educational
journey.
