    INTRODUCTION

    INTRODUCTIONEducation is a life-long process of learning and to become an efficient

    and effective educator, you must first understand of value of continuous

  • 8/7/2019 kimberly u,.\\

    9/63

    learning because this would be the teachers tool in molding individuals into a

    better and more competitive one.

    The first major step in moving from amateur status toward gaining

    competencies that mark the real professional is the student teaching

    opportunities to the educational theories and methods into practice. Student

    teaching is the first and foremost a learning situation. This is the craft before

    he has to put his skills on the lime in his own classroom. This is the student

    teachers chance to learn from his mistakes without causing harm to his

    students. This is the time for him to find out the strategies, tactics and

    teaching styles that best suit him. It is the time of trial and error and for

    growing confidence and beginning expertise. It is not a time of perfection but

    of striving for competence.

    Through student teaching, a process whereby a potential teachers

    confirms to himself/herself and others that he/she as the resourcefulness to

    survive with an actual teaching situation, the prospect teacher gain more

    experiences that would serve as their credential in their path. As we all know,

    teaching is a noble profession. It requires a long preparation and more

    training sessions for them to be equipped in facing the real environment that

    awaits them in near future.

    Student teaching serves as an internship in the profession education

    where theories, knowledge, attitudes and skills develop through course work

  • 8/7/2019 kimberly u,.\\

    10/63

    and observation are fused into more meaningful interpretation through

    practical experience in actual teaching situation.

    A GLIMPSE ON MHS HISTORY

    Maligaya High School, formerly Lagro High School Maligaya Park Annex,

    stands as a landmark of the governments concern for the welfare and

    progress of the people. It is a symbol of governments commitment to make

    education accessible to all.

    Based on transfer Certificate of title Numbered RT (149905) and RT

    89086 (144907) issued by the Register of Deeds of Quezon City, Metro Manila

    Philippines, this parcel of the land where MHS rose was donated by the

    Biyaya Corporation represented by its General Manager, Mr. Paul Sysip to the

    Quezon City government represented by Hon. Ismael A. Matay, Jr.

    The said parcel of land consists of 19,169 sq. meters more or less

    and located at the heart of Maligaya Subdivision where a two-story building

    with six (6) classrooms caters to the students living within the community

    and its adjacent subdivisions.

    The building was blessed and formally turned over to the Division

    of City Schools represented by Dr. Alma Bella O. Bautista, Assistant Schools

    Division Superintendent on July 3, 1992.

    The people who worked hard for the construction of this building

    were the following: Congressman Dante Liban, Atty. Godofredo Liban II,

    Barangay Captain of Brgy. Pasong putik, and Mr. Romy Mallari.

    The school formally opened in June 1992 and was granted

    EDUCATIONAL UPDATES

    EDUCATIONAL UPDATES

    SOCIAL EDUCATION

    First of all, academic freedom is an ongoing issue of importance to us

    all. As Jack L. Nelson and Carole Hahn point out, social studies is the school

    subject most likely to deal with controversial topics, and is the most

    vulnerable to external and self-censorship, political restriction, and the

    chilling effect of potential scrutiny.

  • 8/7/2019 kimberly u,.\\

    24/63

    James Daly points out, however, that many teacher education

    programs do not prepare future teachers properly to deal with issues of

    academic freedom. Nancy C. Patterson reports the results of a survey she

    conducted that shows that teachers often make up for a lack of pre-service

    training in the issue through in-service training, but their uncertainty about

    the extent of academic freedom and wariness of dealing with hot button

    issues can lead to self-censorship.

    This makes it all the more important for teachers to have a strong

    grasp of the legal framework and protections that exist for academic

    freedom. Two articles in this edition, one on freedom for teachers, and the

    other on freedom for students, summarize the current situation. In the first,

    Michael D. Simpson, a legal expert at the National Education Association,

    warns that teachers should not presume that their legal rights are protected

    by the First Amendment rather than by legally enforceable teacher

    contracts.In the second, Robert M. ONeil, author of several works on

    academic freedom, reviews legal decisions related to student freedom, noting

    that many contemporary speech issues involving student use of computers,

    cellular phones and other available technologies are just emerging.

    How do teachers navigate the issue of academic freedom in this legal

    context? Diana Hess, in her special column for this issue, makes the point

    that social studies teachers have a professional responsibilityto educate

  • 8/7/2019 kimberly u,.\\

    25/63

    students, no matter what protections might or might not be provided by the

    law, and that as professionals, their expertise about content, pedagogy, and

    their students makes it not just acceptable, but mandatory, to make

    decisions about what and how to teach. This requires academic freedom,

    and she urges that teachers should act in accordance with the

    responsibilities that come with academic freedom rights, even if the law

    does not guarantee these rights. In her judgment and experience, it is a

    characteristic of highly effective schools for teachers who assume these

    responsibilities with professional care and dedication to be accorded the

    academic freedoms they seek.

    Two former NCSS presidents offer supportive words for social studies

    teachers: Todd Clark, who edited an earlier edition of Social Education on

    academic freedom, and Anna Ochoa-Becker, who offers guidelines for

    teachers who come under challenge. This issue also provides a list of

    institutions that support teachers in cases of academic freedom, and

    reproduces the NCSS position statement on academic freedom.

    Apart from the special theme of academic freedom, this issue offers

    articles by our regular columnists on some engaging subjects. In our

    Teaching with Documents feature, Lee Ann Potter examines the practice of

    the filibuster, using as the featured document the signed cloture motion in

    the Senate for an end to the filibuster to block the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

  • 8/7/2019 kimberly u,.\\

    26/63

    The accompanying teaching activities enable teachers to introduce their

    classes to the history and practice of the filibuster.

    Our Looking at the Law feature focuses on contemporary piracy. In an

    interview conducted by Tiffany Willey Middleton, Douglas Guilfoyle outlines

    the legal issues surrounding the prosecution of pirates. He notes that pirates

    cannot be considered to be military combatants, and must be tried under

    criminal law. International law provides authorization and powers for states to

    combat piracy, but some countries do not have a clear or effective national

    law against piracy, so that unresolved questions remain.

    In his Internet column, C. Frederick Risinger examines the common

    core standards movement, and recommends websites that will allow readers

    to identify the goals of the movement, as well as the objections of its

    detractors. Risinger, a former NCSS president, emphasizes his support for

    expanding this initiative to include social studies standards, and expresses

    his belief that the marginalization of social studies/citizenship education in

    the U.S. curriculum is not only a disaster for all social studies educators, but

    is also a danger to the future of American democracy. In support of this

    belief, he recently wrote an open letter to President Obama urging a stronger

    national commitment to citizenship education. That letter concludes this

    edition of Social Education.

    BRIEF SYNOPSIS OFPROFESSIONAL

    READINGS

  • 8/7/2019 kimberly u,.\\

    28/63

    THE ETHICS AND POLITICS OF VALUES EDUCATION

    Ivan Snook

    Emeritus Professor of Education

    Massey University

    THE POLITICS OF VALUES EDUCATION

    It is well known that values education was an important theme in the

    1970s and I shall return to that later on. What is frequently said (indeed I

    think I have said it myself) is that in the 1980s and 1990s values education

    disappeared off the educational agenda to be put back on only quite recently.

    But, I am convinced that this is the wrong way to look at it. In fact, I want to

    say, the decade from the middle of the 1980s to the present is a time of the

    most obvious, cunning and effective values education ever seen in our

    country. The young boy in Christchurch, the respondents in Tui Motu and the

    statement of the Hillary Commission strongly suggest that what has taken

    place is a change of value system and outlook right through a generation of

    young people; and what else is values education but the systematic change

    of the attitudes and values of young people in accordance with some version

    of reality. The trouble is, of course, that the values which have been pushed

    are those which fly in the face of the lessons of the past and the values of our

  • 8/7/2019 kimberly u,.\\

    29/63

    secular and religious traditions. To those of us with humanistic and/or

    religious perspectives this is a tragic outcome. And I want to suggest, as part

    of my theme, that those who so consciously promoted this values education

    are themselves beginning to recognise the social and personal monsters they

    have created; and they want values education in the schools to fix it up.There

    is a major irony in this, of course, since these are the very people who have

    vilified teachers, tried to de-skill them and attacked their professionalism at

    every turn. The agenda of the 1990s was clearly stated for those who had

    ears to hear it. In introducing her 1991 Budget, Ruth Richardson said:

    Tonights announcements are not just about how much money the

    government will spend this year and how much it will take in tax. They are

    about the sort of society we will become a generation into the future.

    (Richardson, 1991 p 5). Is this not an explicit declaration of a new approach

    to values education? One which would take place throughout all the

    institutions of the nation. As a result of the policies, universities and

    polytechnics were transformed from communities of scholars into businesses;

    academic leadership and collegiality were replaced by management and

    hierarchy; students with commitment to knowledge and service were

    changed into apprentices for industry, shackled with debt and unable to think

    outside themselves. We were all encouraged to look out for ourselves and

    idealism became a sick joke. The leadership in selfishness was provided by

    our business and community leaders as they sought ever increasing financial

  • 8/7/2019 kimberly u,.\\

    30/63

    rewards for themselves and for those who followed their lead. The education

    community was cynically divided by policies of choice and competition and

    by bulk funding in particular. That divisiveness is still being fosteredjust

    read recent letters to Education Review. So the agenda was announced, it

    was followed slavishly and, if the evidence from the Hillary Commission and

    others is believed it worked! A generation with selfish values was deliberately

    created. It is worth reminding ourselves of a little history. In the 1970s there

    was a strong demand that the schools do more for the moral education of the

    young.

    This plea was supported by the then Department of Education, by

    thoughtful members of the community, and by academics in Education

    departments. Older people here will remember the Ross Report and the

    Johnson Report, both of which suggested a strong values approach to

    education in our schools. They were strongly opposed by many (but not all)

    churches, by business people (such as the Employers Federation) and by

    groups (like the Concerned Parents Association) which claimed to speak for

    parents. In the early 1980s while the Labour Government was beginning the

    economic and social revolution which Ms Richardson was to further, Russell

    Marshall tried again to make the schools more receptive to the values

    dimension. Once again the same sort of groups gathered to oppose it. On the

    face of it, it is

  • 8/7/2019 kimberly u,.\\

    31/63

    quite puzzling to notice that at the end of their social reforms some of

    thevery people who so bitterly opposed values education are now to thefore

    in promoting it. There are, I believe three interconnected explanations for this

    change of heart.

    1. The first is a genuine recognition, though no full acknowledgement,

    that the reforms of the past ten or so years have wrought havoc in the sphere

    of social morality. It is indeed a belated recognition of the other strand in

    Adam Smith. We are familiar with his economic view that each entrepreneur

    acts and must act selfishly but because of the Hidden Hand this in fact

    benefits all. Through each pursuing her or his own ends, all of us are made

    better off. Unnoticed however is Smiths moral position: that this is possible

    and sustainable only against a common background of shared community

    values and mutual trust. Without that, said Smith, wealth might grow but so

    would violence and anti social behaviour. It is clear to all that over the past

    15 years, life in our society has become for many much nastier; the income

    gap has opened faster than in any other developed country; crime,

    delinquency and youth suicide have increased enormously. No one can prove

    any causal connection between social policies and social ills. But in the light

    of Smiths careful analysis, made a long time before our society existed, it is

    highly plausible. The Code of Social Responsibility proposed by the previous

    government and Mr Bolgers rather obscure talk of Social Capital can be

  • 8/7/2019 kimberly u,.\\

    32/63

    taken as a sign that, despite the reforms, they thought that all was not well in

    our society.

    2. The second, and less flattering, interpretation is that among these

    people there is the growing awareness that a revolution cannot be sustained

    unless it is constantly renewed in the hearts of the young. On this account,

    the new support for values education is a call for a politically biased school

    system which will reinforce the revolution. On the face of it values such as

    loyalty, responsibility, duty, obedience and honesty are domesticatingvalues.

    They serve to reinforce the status quo and the power structures which serve

    the interests of the dominant group. We need only reflect for a moment on

    how the values of loyalty and submission and even love have served the

    oppression of women by men while generations of South Africans and African

    Americans were schooled to know their place and be loyal to their exploiters.

    3. The third and most cynical interpretation is that the campaign for

    values education comes from those whose personal and ideological interests

    lie in the denigration of state schools and the promotion of private schools

    which (it is alleged without evidence) do a better job of values education.

    Thus it is a continuation of the privatisation drive for which recent

    governments have been noted. It is important to recognise that in the

    ideology which has ruled our lives since 1984 there is no place for the state in

    education. Roger Douglas and Ruth Richardson, ideological architects of the

  • 8/7/2019 kimberly u,.\\

    33/63

    revolution, both make this clear in their books. Richardson sees the end point

    of the policies: the state will divest itself of all the schools it owns. I ask

    today if some of these extreme views lie beneath the current promotion of

    values education by private schools, the Catholic Education Office, and the

    world of business. What I am arguing is that all programmes of values

    education are dependent on political judgements. The ideas being promoted

    in the 1970s and 1980s presumed an open, democratic, pluralistic society,

    which was to be non racist and non sexist. Those opposed to such a society

    were consistent in opposing the values education which pre-supposed it. For

    them the immediate task was not the creation of communal values; on the

    contrary, schools had to be won over to individualism and selfishness by

    policies which set parents against teachers, schools against schools, teachers

    against teachers and principal against staff. Not for nothing did the

    Employers federation savagely attack the Johnson Report for neglecting the

    real world of work as they put it. Not for nothing were the reforms

    heralded by an attack on the standards of state schools. Not for nothing were

    the Picot safeguards of community participation such as Education Forums

    and the Parents Advocacy Council, cut off in their prime. We meet today in

    an institution in which a huge percentage of staff are alienated from the

    administrators and from the true role of the university. This is not an

    unwelcome side effect; such alienation and destruction of the university ideal

    was fully intended in the reforms themselves.

    6. Learning and carrying out routine classroom and school duties of a

    teacher, as appropriate

    NOTE that normally you will mainly observe and assist in the first few weeks

    of the semester, teach the class for all or part of a period about once a week

    during the middle of the term, and teach whole lessons once a week or more

    often in the final weeks of the term. You should teach your first lesson to the

    class no later than early March. You will normally do most of your teaching in

    one class of your Co-operating Teacher's program, but may also teach

    occasionally in other classes.

    Observations

    38/63

    Your teaching will be observed during the term by a supervisor from Brooklyn

    College, either the course instructor or another faculty member. You will also

    get advice on your teaching from your Co-operating Teacher and perhaps

    from the department head. In the early part of the semester you should

    model your teaching after the routines and procedures of your Co-operating

    Teacher. Later you can try out various methods discussed in the seminar or

    original ideas of your own, with the Co-operating Teacher's approval. Your

    first official observation will mainly be diagnostic and count least toward your

    final evaluation. The last two observations of the term will normally count

    more and will look for progress and attention to recommendations made to

    you after the first observation.

    Co-operating Teachers

    Your Co-operating Teacher, also known as a Mentor Teacher, receives credit

    from the College for working with you. You should regard the C.T. as a

    primary source of information, advice, and guidance as you learn how to

    perform the role of a teacher. The classes in which you may teach are the

    responsibility of the C.T., and so you should defer to the C.T.'s policies with

    regard to the class. If you want to try something different, discuss it in

    advance. Co-operating Teachers know that you are there to learn and to try

    out teaching methods of various kinds and will generally be willing to let you

    use methods presented in the college seminar. Remember that students get

  • 8/7/2019 kimberly u,.\\

    39/63

    used to particular policies and procedures and teaching methods and that

    while they like variety, they may find new approaches confusing at first.

    Accept the guidance of your C.T. in general, but also show some initiative in

    proposing teaching ideas.

    NARRATIVE REPORT

    NARRATIVE REPORT

    Mixed emotions, I felt nervous but at the same time so happy that at

    last Im about to enter the next level of my practice teaching career. It was

    not for me to adjust, since it is not my first time in MHS because Ive already

    took my observation at the same school the difference is that I am not

    handling the second year anymore but the senior year instead. One more

    thing is that all of the people there are approachable and willing to lend you

    some help whenever you need some.

    First week of my practicum, my critic teacher, Mrs. Lily Palisoc, whose

    handling five sections from fourth year level, let me see and feel the

    environment inside her classroom and whenever we get inside each

    classroom I let her introduce me in front of the class. The following days she

    let me handle her class without her giving assistance to me.

  • 8/7/2019 kimberly u,.\\

    43/63

    The following weeks, most of the time we were doing projects, since

    my area is in line with related craft. In doing our projects we are using, most

    of the time, recycled materials like old magazine and alike. We have different

    categories in doing a project so different materials are required to make one.

    Every time I help my students in doing their project, I feel so fulfilled because

    I was able to help them giving my best and in my own way.

    When my last week came, thats the time I felt so sad, in a way that I

    will not be able to help them anymore in making their projects. And I will not

    be their student teacher anymore. But I just take it positively, that it is not

    the end but it was just about the start of my career as a Teacher.

    CURRENT ISSUES IN

    EDUCATION

    CURRENT ISSUES IN EDUCATION

    Key Issues in the Philippine Education

    Literacy rate in the Philippines has improved a lot over the last few

    years- from 72 percent in 1960 to 94 percent in 1990. This is attributed to the

    increase in both the number of schools built and the level of enrollment in

    these schools.

    The number of schools grew rapidly in all three levels - elementary,

    secondary, and tertiary. From the mid-1960s up to the early 1990, there was

    an increase of 58 percent in the elementary schools and 362 percent in the

    tertiary schools. For the same period, enrollment in all three levels also rose

    by 120 percent. More than 90 percent of the elementary schools and 60

  • 8/7/2019 kimberly u,.\\

    45/63

    percent of the secondary schools are publicly owned. However, only 28

    percent of the tertiary schools are publicly owned.

    A big percentage of tertiary-level students enroll in and finish

    commerce and business management courses. Table 1 shows the distribution

    of courses taken, based on School Year 1990-1991. Note that the difference

    between the number of enrollees in the commerce and business courses and

    in the engineering and technology courses may be small - 29.2 percent for

    commerce and business and 20.3 percent for engineering and technology.

    However, the gap widens in terms of the number of graduates for the said

    courses.

    On gender distribution, female students have very high representation

    in all three levels. At the elementary level, male and female students are

    almost equally represented. But female enrollment exceeds that of the male

    at the secondary and tertiary levels . Also, boys have higher rates of failures,

    dropouts, and repetition in both elementary and secondary levels.

    Aside from the numbers presented above, which are impressive, there

    is also a need to look closely and resolve the following important issues:

    1) quality of education 2) affordability of education 3) goverment budget for

    education; and4) education mismatch.

  • 8/7/2019 kimberly u,.\\

    46/63

    1. Quality - There was a decline in the quality of the Philippine

    education, especially at the elementary and secondary levels. For

    example, the results of standard tests conducted among elementary

    and high school students, as well as in the National College of Entrance

    Examination for college students, were way below the target mean

    score.

    2. Affordability - There is also a big disparity in educational

    achievements across social groups. For example, the

    socioeconomically disadvantaged students have higher dropout rates,

    especially in the elementary level. And most of the freshmen students

    at the tertiary level come from relatively well-off families.

    3. Budget - The Philippine Constitution has mandated the goverment to

    allocate the highest proportion of its budget to education. However,

    the Philippines still has one of the lowest budget allocations to

    education among the ASEAN countries.

    4. Mismatch - There is a large proportion of "mismatch" between

    training and actual jobs. This is the major problem at the tertiary level

    and it is also the cause of the existence of a large group of educated

    unemployed or underemployed.

    The following are some of the reforms proposed:

    The Learning Objective

    by Melissa Kelly

    When a teacher takes the time to determine what he wants his

    students to learn from a lesson, he is creating a learning objective. These

    objectives help shape the curriculum and daily lessons of the course. Often,

    the learning objectives for a course are mandated by your district or state.

    The federal government publishes guidelines, which some schools ask their

    teachers to follow. Further, outside forces such as high-stakes testing can

    affect the learning objectives of classroom teachers. Overall, it is important

    for you as a teacher to combine these elements and add your own personal

    vision to create an effective learning environment.

    State and National Standards

    Each state has its own system for developing standards, and methods

    vary from district to district. While there are some national curriculum

    standards developed by different councils and groups, there are no official

    national standards that all teachers and schools must follow. Today, there are

    arguments both for and against the creation of national standards.

    By allowing states to define their own standards and not mandating

    national standards, the federal government lets states determine what to

  • 8/7/2019 kimberly u,.\\

    49/63

    teach. For example, Texas social studies standards deal more specifically

    with state history than Florida social studies standards do. If the national

    government created standards, this type of individual focus would be

    impossible to maintain.

    On the flip side, if national standards were mandated, proponents

    claim that curricula would be standardized across the nation. It would

    become much more likely that the information learned in American history

    class would not vary from state to state. This issue of state versus national

    standards will continue to be debated for quite some time.

    High-Stakes Testing

    Teachers across the nation are increasingly faced with the need to

    prepare their students for high-stakes testing. For example, at this time all

    students in Florida must pass the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test

    (FCAT) in order to graduate from high school. Further, funding and school

    grades are based in part on the results of this test.

    The goal of tests such as the FCAT is to ensure that students meet

    minimum levels of achievement at different grades throughout their school

    careers. There is also a desire to create educational accountability. In a

    perfect world, teachers would not have to change what they were teaching in

    order to fully prepare students for tests like the FCAT. However, many times

  • 8/7/2019 kimberly u,.\\

  • 8/7/2019 kimberly u,.\\

    51/63

    spend an inordinate part of your lesson on something that you feel is not that

    important for your students to learn, you are wasting precious educational

    time.
