Analyze

1. From the PPSTs, the Southeast Asia Teachers Competency Standards and the TEDx
videos that you viewed, what competencies does a great teacher possess?

A great teacher has the following competencies: they know and understand what
they teach. They also involve the community in their lesson, which instills in the
students the notion that everything is interconnected and that they should value
real-world learning. They also assist students in learning in such a way that they can
exchange best practices and develop a lifelong love of learning. Furthermore, they
possess the qualities of a great teacher, such as being willing to listen to their
students, having communication skills, knowing how to collaborate, adopt, and
be patient. Furthermore, they possess effective teaching characteristics such as
engaging classroom presence, which makes them a better teacher every day.
 2. Are these competencies limited only to professional competencies?

Yes, because Professional competencies are the skills, knowledge, and

characteristics that are specifically valued by professional associations and or
organizations. To put it another way, it would be inappropriate if it was used by non-
professionals. We must keep in mind that these competencies are linked to our future
career.

3. For a teacher to be great, is it enough to possess the professional competencies to

plan a lesson, execute a lesson plan, manage a class, assess learning, compute and
report grades? Explain your answer.

4. For a teacher to be great, which is more important personal qualities or professional

competencies?

Professional and personal qualities are equally important for a teacher, and a
teacher, in my opinion, would be incomplete without either of them. Personal
qualities such as good communication skills are essential for teachers to
understand the needs of their students. Professional qualities or competencies are
also required because it allows you to learn the fundamental methods of
teaching, techniques, and hands-on training to deal with a wide range of
students. Furthermore, a teacher who possesses these two qualities has an
advantage because they will make them a great teacher. To summarize what I've said
thus far, a teacher is a complete package if he or she possesses the two qualities.

5. Who are the teachers that we remember most?

Teachers who are kind to us are the ones we remember the most, in my opinion.
Another thing is the teacher who has left an imprint on us. Furthermore, the
teacher who is capable of developing a positive relationship with us. Also, the teacher
who has the patience to explain things to us. Finally, there is the teacher who is
dedicated to teaching and engaging us in learning.

Reflect

Which personal traits do I possess? Not possess? Where do I need improvement in?

I have the ability to listen, which is one of my personal characteristics. I, too, have a
friendly demeanor. I'm also a patient person with a strong work ethic. I don't have
good communication skills, which is one of my personal flaws. Also, I am still
lacking in the area of preparation, so in order to improve, I must continue to
work on it as long as possible because I know that preparation is the key to becoming
a great teacher in the future.

Which professional competencies am I strongly capable of demonstrating?

To be honest, having a creative problem solving ability is one of the professional

competencies that I am very capable of demonstrating. I'm not saying I'm that good,
but I can assure them that I'm capable of it. I can come up with solutions to
problems. I can say that I am capable of problem solving. To summarize, I can
analyze issues, make decisions, and solve problems.
In which competencies do I need to develop more?

Among the professional competencies, I believe that global perspective is the one on which
I should focus my attention and time. Why am I saying this? So that I can follow the global
trend of teaching. Also, so that in the future, I can apply innovation to my own teaching
styles. Overall, I need to work on broadening my perspective.

Who are the teachers that we remember most?

Teachers who are kind to us are the ones we remember the most, in my opinion. Another
thing is the teacher who has left an imprint on us. Furthermore, the teacher who is
capable of developing a positive relationship with us. Also, the teacher who has the patience
to explain things to us. Finally, there is the teacher who is dedicated to teaching and
engaging us in learning

Write Action Research Prompts

1. OBSERVE In assisting my Resource Teacher, I observed that personal traits such as

being kindness and compassionate and professional competencies like delivering the
performance and communication were least/ not displayed and as a result, it affect
fhe performance of the students.

2. REFLECT The lack of these personal traits and professional competencies

(mentioned in #) may be caused by The lack of these personal traits and professional
competencies mentioned in #1) may be caused by kids' poor performance, which may
have an influence on their development and growth

3. PLAN I would like to address this problem (mentioned in # 2) by conducting an action

research on I would like to address A Paper Discussion Session from the American
Educational Research Association (AERA) presents a mechanism for Improving
Teacher Qualityand Classroom Practice, which I believe will be extremely useful in
adressing this issue.

4. ACT

a) The main objective of my action research is to have a better understanding of what is

going on in a school/classroom and what can be done to help instructors and students
learn more effectively.

b) My specific research questions are: to improve people'scognitive skills, feelings of efficacy,

desire to share and communicate, and attitudes toward change.

c) To answer my specific research questions, I want to establish asimple, repeatable process

of iterative learning,assessment, and improvement for schools and instructorsthat leads to
ever better results.

Work on my Artifacts

Attach your reflections here.

Personal qualities as well as professional competencies were taught to me. Also, I learned
that using professional competency in teaching provides a more encouraging environment
for students and creates a broad horizon of knowledge for them, making them feel secure in
the knowledge they gain from the teacher. Another thing I learned is that as a professional
teacher, you must seek out all of your students' needs in order to provide or give them the
appropriate treatment for their difficulties. I also learned that as future educators, we must
prioritize what is best for our students over all else because it is one of the most important
aspects of being a teacher. Furthermore, it gives me an idea of how these two qualities
help you work toward your goals while also working efficiently with your students. I
realized that if you want to be a great teacher, you must demonstrate certain
competencies in order to meet the standards of a great teacher. I also realized that having
the two qualities would help me become a better teacher in the future. Another thing is that
it would be ideal if I possessed these two qualities because they would be of great assistance
to me since we will be practicing teaching soon. Developing these skills, or qualities,
through the course I'm currently enrolled in will be extremely beneficial to me. I know it
won't be easy, but I'm willing to work hard to improve these skills through the course I'm
currently enrolled in. And so I will do my best to develop all of the competencies because, for
me, each competency requires improvement, and I want to excel in each competency in
order to be a better teacher for my students. Also, I want to have these qualities now that
I'm halfway through my future career. Maybe not right now, but I hope to have
those qualities in the near future. It is simply a matter of willingness and
acceptance to develop such qualities. It might be difficult, but I'm willing to give it a shot
and see what happens.
