1.     School: General Information and Academic Administration

After observation, please write a report about school general information and its academic administration according to topics as follows:

1.1     School profile

As a whole rating, I give a big thumbs up at Pangasinan State University Bayambang. They have 9 campuses that have several majors ranging from high school to kindergarten to college, which they also have good administration in their schools, provide a learning environment conducive enough for their students to make them competent and creative students. In their academic plans and school development, they have a good vision and mission to become an ASEAN Premier State University in 2020 and the Pangasinan State University, through instruction, research, extension and production, committees to develop highly principled, morally upright, innovative And globally competent individuals capable of meeting the needs of industry, public service and civil society. And all this is possible with the support and assistance of the government, parents, teachers, and students themselves. Good thing in this school, parents have the greatest role in supporting the needs of the students. They not only support when students come to their homes but also support their schools. The leadership of Pangasinan State University embraces the philosophy of education of the Philippines that education is directed towards citizenship and better livelihoods and the United Nations statement that EDUCATION FOR ALL gives access to quality education.

In terms of the faculty staffs, they have a good relationship with each other. We can’t deny their good teaching performance and their enthusiasm in their profession but their good relationship shows how they care with each other through having peer-evaluation and even having a sharing of knowledge and teaching methods. Moreover, schools also provide professional development through workshops on teaching methods.

In terms of their curriculum and instruction, they ensure that the curriculum, which comes from the ministry of education, will reflect the vision and mission of their school. They use curriculum k 12 in their education. Nothing else they have Internet, servers, computer labs and easily accessible LCD projectors used as classroom instructions. Another good thing in their evaluation to the students, is that they have an evaluation of these characters to the students. In addition, they provide extra-curricular activities that are also assessed.

Additionally, in terms of their facilities, they have accessible library and laboratories which have complete equipment and resources. With their physical environment, they have good buildings, clean and fresh surroundings, and satisfying services.

1.2     Academic support system

Education in the Philippines is managed and regulated by the Department of Education (DepEd), Commission on Higher Education (CHED) and Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA). DepEd is responsible for the K–12 basic education; it exercises full and exclusive control over public schools and nominal regulation over private schools, and it also enforces the national curriculum that has been put in place since 2013. CHED and TESDA, on the other hand, are responsible for higher education; CHED regulates the academically-oriented universities and colleges while TESDA oversees the development of technical and vocational education institutions and programs in the country.

From 1945 to 2011, basic education took ten years to complete—six years of elementary education and four years of high school education for children aged six up to fifteen. However, after the implementation of the K–12 Program of DepEd and subsequent ratification of Kindergarten Education Act of 2012 and Enhanced Basic Education Act of 2013, the basic education today takes thirteen years to complete—one year of kindergarten, six years of elementary education, four years of junior high school and two years of senior high school for children aged five up to seventeen. As of 2017, the implementation of Grade 12 has started.

1.5     Measurement and evaluation system

1.6     Curriculum

Elementary school, sometimes called primary school or grade school (Filipino: paaralang elementarya, sometimes mababang paaralan), is the first part of the educational system, and it includes the first six years of compulsory education (Grades 1–6) after cumpolsory pre-school education called Kindergarten.

In public schools, the core/major subjects that were introduced starting in Grade 1 include Mathematics, Filipino, and Araling Panlipunan (this subject is synonymous to Social Studies).English is only introduced after the second semester of Grade 1. Science is only introduced starting Grade 3. Other major subjects then include Music, Arts, Physical Education, and Health (abbreviated as MAPEH), TLE (Technology and Livelihood Education) for Grade 6, EPP (Edukasyong Pantahanan at Pangkabuhayan) for Grades 4 and 5, Mother Tongue (Grades 1-3) and Edukasyon sa Pagpapakatao (synonymous to Ethics, Values or Character Education). In private schools, subjects in public schools are also included with the additional subjects including:Computer Education as a separate subject, though it is included in EPP and TLE through its ICT component. In Christian and Catholic schools, Religious Education is also part of the curriculum like Christian Values and Ethics, Christian Living, or Bible Studies. Islamic schools like Madrasah schools have a separate subjects for Arabic Language and for Islamic Values or abbreviated as ALIVE. Chinese schools may also have subjects in Chinese Language and Culture. International schools also have their own subjects in their own language and culture.

The K to 12 curriculum will provide learners with a repertoire of competencies important in the world of work and in a knowledge-based society. It envisions the development of scientifically, technologically, and environmentally literate and productive members of society who are critical problem solvers, responsible stewards of nature, innovative and creative citizens, informed decision makers, and effective communicators. This curriculum is designed around the three domains of learning science: Understanding and applying scientific knowledge in local setting as well as global context whenever possible, performing scientific processes and skills, and developing and demonstrating scientific attitudes and values.

1.7     Teaching plan (of your major)

On their teaching plan here as what he has in the Philippines, they do not have this core standard and are instantly broken down into specific learning objectives. And it's all based on their curriculum guide.Their teaching plan provides detailed learning resources, varied learning activities, and learning assessments. I have observed that the procedure or flow of the lesson are student-centered, while their assessments are performance based which assessed by rubrics or mechanical ratings.

2.     Pedagogical Contents

After observation, please write a report on school pedagogical contents (where you were placed for practicum) according to topics as follows:

1.1      Teaching methods

Based on observation, PSU Integrated School using some teaching metodes such as contextual learning, problem or isue based learning, inquiry based learning and science & tecnology sociaty approach.

The acquisition of these domains is facilitated using the following approaches: multi/interdisciplinary approach, science technology-society approach, contextual learning, problem/issue-based learning, and inquiry-based approach. The approaches are based on sound educational pedagogy namely, constructivism, social cognition learning model, learning style theory, and brain-based learning.

1.2      Learning materials and innovation

Learning materials that used in PSU Integrated School such as Power Point Presentation and other media for games. Psu usually include the game that related to the materials. They put it on motivation part.

1.3      Sources of learning and technology

3. Teaching Plan

         

After observation, please write a report about school teaching plan according to topics as follows:

1.1     Curriculum

PSU Integrated School use K to 12 Curriculum. The K to 12 for Science Curriculumis learner-centered and Inquiry-Based, emphasizing the use of evidence in constructing explenations. Concepst and skill in Life Science, Physics, Chemist, Biology and Erath Science are presented with increasing number of complexity from one grade level to another inspiral progressio, thus paving the way to a deeper understandingof one concepts. The integration accross science topics and other diciplines will lead to a meaningful understanding of concepts and its aplication to real life situation.

This curiculum is designed arpund three domains of learning science : understanding andapplying scientific knowledge in local setting as well as global context whenever possible; performing scientific proccess and skill; and developing and demonstrating scientific attitudes and value.

4.     Observation on Teacher(s)

After observing and studying about teacher(s), please write a report on following topics: 

1.1     Planning for teaching

the teachers here use to make the planning fo teaching daily. They will make their lesson plan also daily. They use the curriculum guide and books to make the lesson plan.

1.2     Preparing lessons and materials

Every teachers here commonly use the powerpoint presentation, so I usually accompanied the teachers to make the media like powerpoint and other media for games like pictures before the class started.

1.3     Teaching in class

The teacher here almost all are so young, they shown different energy and characterize when they were teaching. I was not only observed Biology Lesson, but I also observed all science lesson both Physics and Chemistry. That’s why I can compare it Over all the part of teaching they used is similar with Indonesia. There is no highly different in the parts of teaching.

1.4     Measurement and Evaluation

For measurement and evaluation, teachers here has a little bit different way in Indonesisa. There is a part at the end of lesson plan, that is evaluation. In this part, the teachers give some questions for the students based on what they had duscussed before. But the teachers would not include that students answers as studenst final mark or rate. Based on observation, they use that as only to measure what their students had understood of tgeir lesson. The teachers will not use it as grading for the students.

 

5.      Teaching Practice

For teaching practice, please have to write a teaching plan and consult with teacher (of your teaching subject). Then student teacher will be assigned to teach in class and reflect on their teaching after class. Please write a report on the teaching practice according to topics as follows:

1.1      Procedures of teaching

For teaching practice, I prepared two kinds of lesson plan. I made Indonesian format and Philippine format. I used Indonesian format for the first two days, and Philippine format for last two days. I only taught 4 days in that week, because Monday was holiday. I didn’t get many advices for Indonesian format. The teachers said that I really know about that. They only gave the corrections for the grammer. For the Philippines format, I got a lot of suggestions and corrections. Over all, there were three main parts of teaching procedures, Pre Developmental Activities, Developmental Activities and Post Developmental Activities. Pre Developmental. Pre developmental Activities consists of pray, checking attendance, recall and motivation. Developmental Activities consists of topics to be discusses and guide questions for deliver the materials. This part explain how the teachers deliver the materials in the class. Post Developmental Activities consists of generalization and evaluation. Generalization is the part of the lesson for the teachers to review what they have ben discussed in that meeting. Evaluation is tha part of the lesson to check the understandments of the students to the topic that they have learnt. But the students answer in this part will be not used in grading.

1.2      Time management and organizing activities

Time management in Philippines format was not too hard to be adopted. The main poin I got was we had to give a lot time in teaching for discusssion and students activities. Although we gave them some games or the other activities for the motivation, we should not spend much time. In philippines, they used to make the students activities. This was also the challenge for me to creat the students activities in the class. It depends on the teachers creativity.

1.3      Problem-solving

The biggest problem I met on this programe was about language. I had to worked hard to explain the materials and concepts using English. It was a big challenge for me. I also realized that althought the teachers here also using English when they were teaching, not all he students can use English well. For example to science major. It because the materials was so conplex, sometimes the students can’t uderstand it. Exactly they were not 100 % using English.the teachers also used Filipino when teaching. They used the easier way to explain the concepts to the students. I faced that challeng by learnt more about the materials using english. I also practiced the materials that I would teach next day with my friends in the dormitories. It was so helpful for me to faced this problem. I also communicated to my mentor and supervisor instructor to give some advices before teaching in the class. Some concepts or priciples was hard to explain in in English, that’s why beside the format, They also gave me advices about the materials.

1.4      Classroom management

I learnt so much experiences in Philippnes. Here they use sit plan to the students. Every class had different sit plan. It depends on the class. Start from observation and teaching assistance, I got the experiences in classroom management. The teacher should also had the avalable voice so it would be helpful in classroom management. Especially in group activity, we had to be clear give the direction. How we divided into some groups and also explain how the technical of their activity should do.

6.      Summary and Suggestions

Student teacher summarize about what you had done during your practicum according to topics as follows:

1.1      Purposes of practicum

The main purpose of this programes are to practice our teching skill in differennt country. from this programe we can also increase our English skill, both in teaching or in communication. the last one is we can bulid our relationship more, not only in my country, but also in abroad.

1.2      Procedures of practicum

The procedures of this practicum I started it by made the lesson plan in second week. I started to made the lesson plan and also check my lesson plan to my supervisor instructor. Because we didin’t allow to teach if our lesson plan was clear. After all of our lesson plan were clear,  

1.3      Outcomes of practicum

After this practicum, I get new experiences from Philippines how they teach their students here. Beside in teaching, I also can increase my English skill, because every day I have to use English. Both in school and our students mentor (buddy) here. The last one is new family and freinds here. Along this almost one month, we pass it together, especially with our buddy. We went to every where around campsu and out campus like market alway with the. Filipino are warm, kind and so freindly,  that’s why in last week we felt so sad, it was same feel when I left my family to go abroad to join this programe. We get so closed with our students, teachers and all of our buddy along this month.

1.4      The challenges of practicum

The big challenges like I hade stated before was about coomunication or languages. Because in Indonesia I never teach using English in real class, I really work hard to learnt the materials using English. I also have to think the easiest way to explain the concepts or priciples in Biology to make the students got the point.

1.5      Overall impression

I really glad can join this programe. This programe not only give us the great experiences on teaching, but also in other in my life side. I learnt how to adapt faster in new higly different culture, language, weather etc. I also learnt more about freindship and family here. Because the students who stay here are almost 30 students, that’s why we have to adapt with the other students from my country also not only the students from my host university. This programe giveme the new point of view to see something, and made me more love my country so much.

1.6      Suggestions for future improvement

I hope for the next batch, the school which will join to the event can also contact each other to the students who will practice their teaching in that school. So the students can prepare more for the teaching practicum. Because I learnt from this batch, I had less preparation. Epecially about educational system and the curriculum. So the students will get well preparation.

                                                                                                            Student Teacher,
