REFLECT
1. Would you like to teach in the school environment of child and adolescent
development? How does this relate to your knowledge of facilitating learning?
The display board, or what we more commonly refer to as bulletin board, is one of the
most readily and versatile learning resources.

To achieve the intended learning outcomes, work your way through these steps: 1.
Examine for bulletin board displays. Include samples of those found at the entrance, lobby,
hallways and classrooms. 2. Pick one and evaluate the display. 3. Propose enhancements to make
the display more effective.
OBSERVE
As you look around and examine board displays, use the observation guide and forms
provided for you to document your observations.
1. Go around the school and examine the board displays. How many board displays
do you see?
2. Where are the displays boards found? Are they in places where target viewers can
see them?

and colors do you see? How are the pieces of information and images arranged?
4. What materials were used in making the displays? Are borders used?
5. Do you notice some errors? (misspelled words, grammar inconsistencies and the like)
7. Think about what got your attention. Why did it get your attention?
Based on the questions on the observation guide, write your observation report:

Learning Outcome: Determine the characteristics, of a school environment that provides social,
psychological, and physical environment supportive of learning.
Actitvity 3.1 Observing differences among learner’s gender, needs, strengths, interests, and
26
experiences; and differences among learners’ linguistic, cultural, socio-economic, religious
backgrounds, and difficult circumstances.
The learners’ different and the type of interaction they bring surely affect the quality of
teaching and learning. This activity is about observing and gathering data to find out how student
diversity learning.

time, recess, etc.)
Step 2. Describe the characteristics of the learners in terms of age, gender, and social and
cultural diversity.
Step 3. Describe the interaction that transpires inside and outside the classroom.
Step 4. Interview your Resource Teacher about the principles and practices that she uses in
dealing with diversity in the classroom.
Step 5. Analyze the impact of individual differences on learners’ interactions.

1. How much interaction is there in the classroom? Describe how the students interact
with one another and with the teacher. Are the groups that interact more with the
teacher than other.

compete against each other?
4. Who among the students participate actively? Who among them ask for most help?
5. When a student is called and cannot answer the teacher’s question, do the
classmates try to help them? Or do they raise their hands, so that the teacher will
call them instead?
Outside class:
• How do the students group themselves outside class? Homogeneously, by age?
By gender? By racial or ethnic group? By their interests? Or are the students in
mixed social groupings? If so, describe their groupings.
• Notice students who are alone or who are not interacting. Describes their behavior.
Interview the teachers and ask about their experience about learners in difficult
circumstances. Request them to describe these circumstances and how it has affected
the learners. Ask about the strategies they use to help these learners cope.
Ask the teachers about strategies they apply to address the needs of diverse students
due to the following factors:
• Gender, including LGBT
• Language and cultural differences
• Differences in religion
• Socio-economic status

Please note: ensure proper coordination of your college/university to obtain permission from
these schools before you visit.
If an actual visit is not feasible, consider a “virtual visit” through social media. And if
still not feasible consider a “virtual” field study through watching Indigenous Peoples in the
Philippines videos. There are several available at YouTube. You can start with this video by
Dep Ed:
