Last March 16, I
went back to TICC, Tagaytay City to attend the Five-Day Orientation of Chief Trainers for Grade 4 NTOT. I was so
excited and a little anxious on what was in store for us in this orientation. To
be honest, this was my first ever experience to become a trainer in a national
level. I became a division trainer for website development last year, but to become
a chief trainer for a national training, whose participants were the best of
every divisions and regions, really gave me goosebumps.
I was thankful
that this orientation equipped us with all the necessary skills to facilitate
the session effectively as chief trainers. The following were the highlights of
our orientation:
- Undersecretary Dina S. Ocampo gave the updates about the K to 12 BEP curriculum for Grade 4 including instruction and assessment.
- Dr. John Arnold Siena of NEAP equipped the chief trainers with skills to facilitate discussions among teacher-participants the effective implementation of the Grade 4 curriculum.
- There were also sessions about teaching strategies like Differentiated Instruction by Dr. Evelina Vicencio and Localization and Contextualization by Dr. Ma. Theresa De Villa.
- SFX, through the cooperation of Australian Aid, introduced the new social brand of DepEd: “Tayo Para sa Edukasyon.” This is a great communications campaign to sustain reforms in Basic Education. (I will dedicate a post about this social brand, to inspire everyone to take active participation in the current reforms in our basic education).
After this
orientation, I felt so eager to become a chief trainer, I learned a lot and I
wanted all these learnings to be shared with all the other trainers nationwide.
