FOREWORD

Setting new benchmarks for teacher education is no mean task. This is


so in the instance of Project WRITE (Writing Resources for Innovative
Teacher Education) which we initiated on August 4, 2006 that led to
the production and publication of workbooks and textbooks.
It was a yeoman's task to gather our colleagues from Luzon, Visayas
and Mindanao and motivated them to get involved in a textbook
writing process. The best happened such that we were able to form a
prolific partnership as proven by this WRITE publication.
This Resource Book on Interactive and Innovative Teaching Strategies
is aligned with the National Competency-Based Teacher Standards
(NCBTS), the standards of good teaching in the Philippines.
The NCBTS consist of seven (7) integrated domains, twenty-one (21)
strands and eighty (80) performance indicators of good teaching. The
NCBS are focused on the development of the 21s century teacher
who can respond to the demands of the K to 12 Basic Education
Curriculum which the Department of Education began implementing
in SY 2012-2013. This book is dotted with teaching strategies which
are in keeping with the standards and principles that served as
guideposts in the crafting of the K to 12 Curriculum. These teaching
strategies are also aligned to current trends in education such as
constructivist, integrative, interactive, collaborative, inquiry-based,
brain-based, research-based and reflective teaching. We gratefully
acknowledge the authors, mother and daughter who worked in
tandem, Dr. Milagros L. Borabo and Dr. Heidi Grace L. Borabo.
This Project WRITE publication is one of the latest editions of the
more than 30 publications that are in active circulation throughout
the country. We look forward to more publications that will help
improve teacher performance by enhancing both the pre-service and
in-service phases of teacher education.
Onward to Project WRITE!
