Task 2.: Notice a. Answer questions at page 126.

1.Describe the structure of the LMS utilized by the teacher. How was it organized? What main
components did you want?

The teacher used Google Classroom as her learning management system (LMS), and he set it up by dividing the
announcements and modules from the activities and exams. He added announcements and modules to the
stream, the area of the LMS that students might immediately observe. The teacher entered student actions and
anticipated outputs in the classwork box. Additionally, there are both public and private comment sections
where students can introduce themselves, ask questions of the teacher, or even provide a link to an uploaded
piece of work.

2.How was the content taught or delivered? How were the learning activities arranged? What strategies
did the teacher or you use to help students attain the objectives/outcomes?

The activities were separated from the module by the teacher. The stream in Google Classroom was used as the posting
location for the modules. The comment section is highly open to the public and anyone, including the teacher, can read it.
The teacher decides whether to set deadlines for the activities to serve as a reminder to the students on when to pass the
activities. All of the activities are then kept in the classwork area.

3.What was your experience in participating and assisting?

Task 3 analyze
1.
The LMS's best features, according to the teacher, are the stream and the classwork. Through this, the kids may simply
download or open the posted exercises without any problem. After the teacher has posted the lesson, students can read it
right away.

2.How did the teacher/or you use the LMS to implement the strategies/activities planned?

When it comes to posting activities, the teacher is very disciplined. She was able to separate announcements and modules
from the activities, as I mentioned above, so that the students knew what to do with the LMS's content.

3.How did this connect with what you know about LMS and TPACK?

LMS is viewed as a medium for the TPACK model. In the LMS, teachers must have pedagogical content knowledge of the
material in order to decide how to implement teaching tactics that will connect prior information to instill knowledge. This
is similar to how it is done in a regular classroom. Similar to technological content knowledge, itrefers to the connections
between educational methods and technology.

4.What problem or challenges did the teacher/ you or the students encounter in working with the LMS?
How did it/they affect teachers/learners? What part/s of the LMS do you think can still be improved ? How can this/these be
improved?

The challenges I discovered was that some students are not afraid to submit their work late, and sometimes they simply turn
it in without providing anything, and the teacher was unable to speak directly with the students because they control whether
or not to respond back.

On what theory/principles can this problem be anchored?

The concept that a child’s environment influences his/her learning and behavior is known as environmentalists learning
theory. It was connected to this notion because if the environment was organized and all learning tools were available to
pupils, they would be able to reach their maximum potential and talents. Student learning acquisition is aided by a conducive
setting with learning resources.

REFLECT
What do I hope to address - the problem/challenge/area of improvement in LMS use? What change do you want to achieve?

In order to address the issue, the government must provide support in the growth of schools and the provision of adequate
learning tools. I also want to make imaginative use of the available resources. From the technique to encourage employees to
enhance their abilities and the learning management system.
Task 6: Work on your artifacts (page 131)

As a future teacher, we should equip our students with the four Cs of critical thinking, communication, cooperation and
creativity in addition to the old and still crucial three Rs of reading, writing and arithmetic. Teachers can combine these
materials for students using LMS, doing away with the requirement for different logins. Through the platforms, students
may view their assignments and grades, which may aid in improving how well they manage their own learning. I believe
that a learning management system is essential for teachers in terms of administration, student record monitoring,
document presentation, reporting, and course content dissemination.

EPISODE 15

2.How was the content taught or delivered? How were the learning activities facilitated? What strategies did the teacher
or you used to keep the students engaged? How did the students respond to the teacher? To the activities?

The content of the lecture was delivered using a variety of applications. Our resource teacher uses Google Suite
to deliver his classes. Our resource teacher presented her lecture through Google Meet. He also makes
advantage of some of the features offered by Google Meet on his computer screen. He asks students to turn
on their webcams on Google Meet to measure their involvement. Students may raise their hands and
open their mics when asking and answering questions. Our resource teacher is a whiz with suchapplications,
especially when it comes to integrating technology into the classroom.

3.What was your experience in participating and assisting in synchronous classes? What were your thoughts and feelings
while you participated and assisted?

I've noticed that discussing in an online context is difficult because you can't see the students face to face. Some students
turn off their cameras so that we can help them; this makes it difficult to communicate with them.

1.What do you think are the best features of a web-conferencing app that you or the teacher used? How did these
features help the teachers and the students?

The ability to mute the microphone of persons who are not speaking, in my opinion, is the best feature in an online
teaching platform since it allows pupils to focus on the person who is speaking with no distractions.

2.Referring to the Community of Inquiry Infographics, how well did the teacher/ or you use the web- conferencing app to
establish: (Describe in detail.)

Teaching Presence?

Learning outcomes that are personally meaningful as well as educationally valuable are defined as teaching presence,
which includes the design, facilitation, and direction of cognitive and social processes.

Social Presence?

It can be seen in the teacher's willingness to get the students involved in the class discussion so that they can improve their
interpersonal relationships by asking questions about what's going on in their neighborhood.

Cognitive Presence?

The students can use their own words to express themselves and reflect on the issue that they have discussed. By asking
questions, kids are also expressing a desire to have a deeper understanding of the subject than was previously stated.

3.What problem or challenges did the teacher/ you or the students encounter during the synchronous classes? How did it
affect the teacher/ learners? What part/s of synchronous classes do you think can still be improved? How can this/ these
be improved?

Since it was my first time witnessing a class with a different modality of learning, I was truly concerned about
participating and assisting in synchronous classes. After seeing and aiding our resource teacher as well as the
other students, I was able to learn a lot from the students.
OBSERVE
1.What problematic situation/ challenges/ area of the improvement did you see while you participated
and assisted using a web-conferencing app for synchronous learning?

The problem or obstacle that the teacher and students faced during the synchronous sessions was a
sluggish internet connection during online lectures; as we all know, not all students have the same ability
to have a reasonable quality internet connection from various internet providers. Some students only connect
to synchronous classes using mobile data. I do not believe the resource teacher's teaching
technique can be improved because he is an extraordinary educator with excellent communication skills.

List at least three sources that you have read about this problem/challenge.

Students

Teachers’ Most It shows the most common problem of a teaching using a technological tool in teaching
Common Tech-Issues and how to properly use and solve those kinds of technical issues. On what
and How to Fix them theories/principles can this problem be anchored Prior knowledge must
be elicited in order for lessons to be effective. Pre-tests, informal
interviews, and small group warm-up exercises involving recollection of previous
material are just a few of the
activities. Assign assignments and exercises to students that will put their
abilities to the test. Learners gainknowledge as they face new
challenges and as they work through the difficult problem, their present
schemas alter. Encourage students to evaluate new content and review what they
already know.

REFLECT

2.What do I hope to achieve to address the problem/ challenge/ area of improvement in web-
conferencing app use? What change do you want to achieve?

I believe that every teacher and institution should invest in technical tools that will assist and address the technological
demands of all pupils. Because it's tough to find a spot with a reliable internet connection, the most
likely change I'll make is to upgrade to a faster internet connection. Internet connection is not only
slow but also awful where we reside in the Philippines, especially when the weather is severe.
WORK ON MY ARTFIACTS
Web-Conferencing is used as an umbrella term for various types of online conferencing and
collaborative services including web meeting, webinars, webcasts. There are advantages and
disadvantages of web conferencing. The advantages are: Time efficacy and saving. Reduced travel
costs and no commute and a faster way to solve problems in-person meetings. The disadvantages
are: Technical issues can cause disruptions, Lack of seriousness.

Analyze

1. What are the teaching implications of the students' test scores and grades?
 Instructor will notifies the pupils about their grades on tests, quizzes, and
performance tasks, among other things, so that remedial work can be done if
necessary.

2. In what subjects did students perform best? poorest?

3. How was the PTC attendance of parents and guardians? What does this imply?
 For example, one of the students had a low performance, the parent of that
child who attended the conference could figure out this case and talk to his or
her child in their home to address the problem. In this way, the student could
be able to improve in next quarter.
 4. What parents/guardians /comments were most common during Card-Giving Day? The following are
some of the questions that parents and guardians ask on Card-Giving Day." Generally, I
believe the school has done an excellent job dealing with problems and providing
support in all aspects."

ACT

To make sure that the scoring, assessment, and conducting of PTC play their role, I will ask teachers and I will
also cultivate my capabilities, for assurance that the students learned, I will assure that the learning outcomes
are met, I will also read research on trusted websites, where I can get enough knowledge on how for me to
become an effective teacher.
