Weekly Blogs for Technology for Teaching and Learning 1

The Guideline 

"A week has passed and it's a new week again, meaning new things will happen and new learnings can be acquired. "

Last week, I talked about the things that I've learned and things that happened during the first meeting for the TTL 1 (technology for teaching and learning 1) and for today's blog, I'm going to talk about the things that I've learned about the CMO or the Ched Memorandum Order for BTVTED (Bachelor of Technical Teacher Education) and also the things that we've done during the second meeting.

Ched Memorandum Order no.79 series of 2017 

So, what is CMO no. 79 series of 2017? Basically, CMO or Ched Memorandum Order no. 79 series of 2017 is a guideline for the program called the BTVTED (Bachelor of Technical Teacher Education). During the discussion our student teacher talks about the importance of the CMO for BTVTED (Bachelor of Technical Teacher Education). The CMO contains things like course syllabus, curriculum components, the main reason or concern why the BTVTED  program is created, program goals and outcomes for the students that is currently taking up this program like myself and many more. Also, our student teacher said that the CMO is the one that talks about the things that as a teacher must be done and the things that must be avoided at all costs. Moreover, the CMO already projected the outcomes that might happen to the students that is currently taking up this course. 

The things we've done after the discussion for the CMO:

• We had our first quiz and it was all about the CMO (Ched Memorandum Order no.79 series of 2017)

• The sharing of the safety policies and the rules and regulations for local and international universities. The university that we choose for this activity is the University of the Philippines Diliman (local) and the University of Oxford (international). 

• And lastly, we make a ICT safety policy based in the BASD building. 

The thing's I've learned for today's meeting 

For today's meeting I've learned the importance of the CMO to our program that we are currently taking which is the BTVTED (Bachelor of Technical Teacher Education). The CMO no. 79 series of 2017 is really a guideline for the BTVTED program itself and to the students that is currently taking this program. It already included the things like , the subject courses and the outcomes that we may acquired during the 4 years of studying this program.

As we end the day, another experience, learnings and reasons are gained that motivates me to become a professional teacher someday in the future.

  WHAT I LEARNED FROM THE FIRST MEETING

- August 22, 2019 (Thursday)

Have you ever wondered the difference between objectives and outcome? Program and a course?

And finally, between effective teacher and efficient teacher? In your whole life, have you ever encountered a kind of communication wherein you easily and completely understood what you're talking about with other people?

For the first meeting of my class in the TTL 1 (Technology for Teaching and Learning 1) my professor ask us three different questions that is related to the course syllabus.

 The first one was "What's the difference between objectives and outcome?".

The second question is "What's the difference between the program and course?" .

and lastly, "What's the difference between effective teacher and efficient teacher?". 

After asking those three questions, our professor taught us the proper kind of communication wherein you can easily understood what your talking to with other people. As for example, you're talking to a professor and the topic is "education", in order to easily understand this kind of communication, you just need to talk about things that is related to education. That's how proper communication works, it's between yourself and the one your talking with. Then, our professor briefly discussed the CMO (Ched Memorandum Order) about the btvted and our professor told to look and read in the Google the whole file of the said CMO.

THE THINGS THAT I'AM DOING DURING THE DISCUSSION

As for myself, during the time our professor ask us those three questions. In my mind, I was able to construct three different answers from the question given. First, my initial answer for the first question was "the difference between the objectives and outcome is that the objectives is similar to a goal that must be done no matter what, while the outcome is the result which came from the objectives you've accomplished. It's either good or a bad outcome". Secondly, my initial answer to the second question was "the difference between the program and a course is that the program is similar to an event, meaning there is an activities that should be done and the course is a subject." And Finally for the third question, my initial answer was, "The difference between effective teacher and efficient teacher was the effective teacher only leaves an impression to the students but an efficient teacher was able to leave not only impression but also able to make the students learn from his/her lessons and able to ace and pass all the exams". That's what I thought, although I didn't participate in the recitation. As for the CMO or Ched Memorandum Order, I was still reading it due to its many pages.

THE THINGS THAT I'VE LEARNED

Lastly, this will tackle what I've learned in the first meeting of my class in TTL 1 (Technology for Teaching and Learning 1). The first one is that I fully understand the difference between program and course. The program refers to the course like BTVTED, BET, BSIT and etc. While the course refers to the subject, just like what I thought. The other one is about the effective communication, which I think, I've understand how the effective communication works due to the explanation and examples of our professor and I think learning on how to make an effective communication will make you great interacting with other people and will also help you to become a full fledged person or individual. That's all I've learned for today's class and I'm sure it will help me to become a better student and as an individual.
