MY ANALYSIS

1. Use the Technology Integration Matrix to analyze the class you observed. In what level of technology integration do you think the teacher operated? Why?  Since the teacher uses Powerpoint presentation, the level of technology integration she operated was entry, because she deliver the content to the learners using technology which exactly help the learners to understand the lesson . 2. Based on the Technology Integration Matrix, what is the characteristic of the learning environment in the class that you observed? Point your observations that justify your answer.  I observed an active characteristics of the learning environment inside the class.They actively engaged in using technology as a very helpful tool rather than ively recieving information from technology that was used by the teacher in discussing the topic.

3. Over-all, were the learning resources used effectively? Why? Why not? Give your suggestions.  Over- all, the learning resources were used effectively. With the used of it, the discussion went smoothly and the lesson was delivered well. And on my observation, it was effective because the learners were actively participating. And through their participation it proves that they have learned something and they show that they are interested on the topic.

MY REFLECTIONS

1. Put yourself in the place of the teacher. What would you do similarly and what would you do differently if you would teach the same lesson to the same group of students? Why? If I put myself in the place of the teacher, I would do similarly the way she discussed. I ire her because she can handle her class and the discussion was great. She catched the attention and interest of the learners. Prove that she professionally knows strategies to handle a class. And the learners participated actively. I think the way she teach is enough for me to do the same thing on the same group of students. The way she taught the lesson, its like she was knew exactly the characteristics of her class therefore she knows how to handle them in some matter.
