Yes, I observed passive learners. For this reason, some of them are reluctant or hesitant to share their
ideas about the topic. There are some students who are not raising their hands to recite, especially
when the teacher wants someone to read the text in the presentation and share their insights. They
just tend to listen to their active classmates and participate in the discussion.

4 If you are the teacher, what possible learning principle(s) and strategy(ies) would you apply to elicit meaningful
learning?
If I were the teacher, the possible learning principle/s or strategy/ies that I would apply to 7
elicit meaningful learning are first, enhancing the atmosphere of cooperation and
collaboration so that the learners could collectively share their insights and learn from their
peers. Second, providing activities that considers the individual differences of the learners
according to their learning styles and multiple intelligences. Lastly, making strategies that
can increase the motivation of the learners by making clear of my objectives; engaging my
students in self-assessment; practicing criterion-referenced assessment rather than norm-
referenced assessment; inspiring my students to have mastery focus rather than
performance focus; and encouraging them to have “growth mindset”
Reflect
1. Among the principles of learning, which one is the most important for you? Substantiate your answer.
For me to become an effective teacher you need all these principles of learning to serve
total knowledge and be able to give the best learning experience for my student. That’s why
I need all the and not just one principle. For each principle we must incorporate necessary
teaching techniques to ensure active participation, collaboration and lastly the learning
environment that is appropriate for the learners.
2. What insight did you learn from the class activities that you have observed?
I’ve learned that I should maintain a positive approach in learning. Keep learners engaged in
every activity and make sure that all your learners can actively participate in and gain
knowledge. We must consider the relevance of the activity to your topic or lesson. I must
also contemplate our learner’s diversity when it comes to their learning capabilities.
