OBSERVATION REPORT
Name of Teacher Observed: Seriña R.
Jumuad
Date of Observation: January
22,2014
School: Misamis
Oriental State College of Agriculture and Technology
Subject: Filipino
Topic: Pananaliksik
Year Level: 2nd year
high school
Observation Report:
Last January 22, 2014, I went to
Misamis Oriental State College of Agriculture and Technoloy (MOSCAT) to observe
the class of Mrs. Seriña
Jumuad. The subject was about Digital Electronics and students were 2nd
year level.
This subject required more of a
direct instruction approach so students must be attentive on the steps given by
the teacher. Mrs Jumuad started discussing the new topic and everyone was
listening and was looking on the board. The class was interested on the
subject.
While Mrs Jumuad was writing the
illustrations on the board the students were taking some notes. Within the
discussion, there are some questions and clarifications raised by the students.
It really showed that the students were active on the class. There was truly an
interaction between the teacher and the students. Mrs Jumuad also asked
questions to the students to affirm that they understand the topic. The
environment was really conducive for learning and students had high respect for
Mrs. Jumuad and there were not afraid to share their ideas or ask questions
related to the topic.
Even though Mrs. Jumuad was only
using the traditional board and pen teaching aid, the students were eager to
learn about the lesson. Mrs. Jumuad made sure that her writings and
illustrations on the board were clear to the students. The teacher doesn’t really need to use high tech
devices to catch the attention of the students as long as the teacher is
effective in teaching her lessons. Mrs. Jumuad had ways to maintain the level
of attention of the class thus making lesson more fun and interactive. At the
end of the day, materials and other aids could not replace a teacher because
she can feel and understand what the students need to learn.
UTILIZATION
OF TEACHING AIDS FORMS
Brief
Description of Teaching Approach Used by the Teacher:
Mrs.
Jumuad taught the lesson in a constructivist way because she let the students
to actively involve into the discussion. She used both traditional and
authentic instructional materials in order for her students to be more active.
Learning by doing.

Comments on the appropriateness of
the teaching aids
|
Chalkboard
|
Easy to access and already provided in the classroom
|
Chalk dust is not
good to the health of the teacher as well as the students
|
It is still important
because there are also things that the students need to impart their ideas by
writing it on the board.
|
Book
|
The content is easy to understand and up-to-date.
|
Somehow, it could not arouse the interest of the students.
|
It should
really encourage students to read books because it will really help a lot.
