Reflective Paper 1

Josh wrote:A Reflection

The search for the ultimate teaching and evaluation methods ends after the introduction of instructional design course curriculum presented last night by Professor Jesson V. Butcon.

The course addressed the distinct characteristics of the learners and outlined a holistic approach in dealing with the different factors that affect the learning capability of each learner.

The Behavioral-scientific approach is a very useful method in focusing on the needs of a learner/s and will discard the voluminous requirements offered by the orthodox educational system.
This approach also considers the fast-phase and ever-changing environment that greatly affect the learning capabilities of the learners. It adapts to the previous effective method and instructional materials and modified the system that will currently address the educational needs of the learners. This is done by providing learning exercises and experiences with an evaluation tool to test the feasibility of the instructional method.

Furthermore, I also uphold the Socratic Method or the currently known as Constructivist approach. I am a proponent of this method as I adhere to the idea that “no one has the monopoly of knowledge.” This method stimulates the thirst of knowledge of every individual and promotes autonomy in acquiring knowledge.

Thus, I was really delighted with the Instructional course outline and very excited to learn more about the principles and scientific it employs to come up with a need-based instructional design.

Until now, im always taking each subject as a challenge. not primaraily excelling on it but for me to adapt and take new information and share it with others. as sir butcon said, in order for us to learn, we need to share it with others. we go on a process of adapting and learning new things and applying them.

By the knowledge that i gained last night, it adds up sloely to my maturity as a graduate student and to be more effective educator in the future.

patmarban wrote:I agree that having these discussions about curriculum and instruction helped us pinpoint our previous teachers' styles. With these new realizations, we are also motivated to apply the techniques and be able to create effective ways to help others learn.

Kriselda Manzano wrote: Now after our discussion last night, I can clearly pinpoint who among of them used this approach because it is from them that I know I’ve learned a lot. I experienced being an undergrad student and hopefully will soon join the academe workforce. Without a doubt, I will utilize LC approach to provide opportunities for my incoming students to construct and be accountable for their own learning, given the fact that I am there to point the way towards useful resources and ask thought provoking questions. I believe that an ideal teacher should apply LC approach to learn with the students and make them feel that teachers are their partners in the learning process.

Kriselda Anne Moreno wrote:Teaching others, apply it to other people. But like what Sir Gary said it's like "the blind teaching the blind". In nursing education, it may be detrimental.

Thanks.. I must mention that educators should also use new technologies in presenting their lecture to get their students' attention and motivate them to read and learn more.

More knowledge, more exciting
A lot to know about teaching
My cup of knowledge is overflowing
All these need implementing!

evancarlo wrote:yeah i agree "the blind teaching the blind". but after the lecture yesterday i beleive that we can change this perception right? at the same it will be depending on us how do we apply them right? and theres always room for change.. that's the main point of the discussion - to improve our teaching style wihile delivering the quality education of nursing

Kriselda Anne Moreno wrote:Yun nga. But for me, teaching something that you do not have a "mastery" in may be detrimental in nursing profession, especially if your a CI in clinical area. That's my fear. But yeah, there's always room for improvement and additional learnings.
