INTRODUCTION

Field Study 1 is the first in a series of six sequential studies in the Bachelor of Elementary Education and the Bachelor of Secondary Education Programs (BEED and BSED) offered by the Teacher Education Institutions (TEIs). Field study 1 is linked with a professional education subject. It is the prerogative of the TEI to match with an appropriate subject such as Child and Adolescent Development, Principles of Teaching, or Facilitating Learning. The focus of Field Study 1 is observation of the learners, school structure and the community. Since this is the first time the student teachers have been exposed to the school environment, they are expected to take note of the school and classroom facilities, and the organizational set-up of the school. The PSTs shall observe the behavior of the learners in the actual learning environment. Based on their observations of learners, PSTs shall develop their understanding on feasible approaches to facilitate learning considering the various phases of growth and development. To assist their transition, the students will be paired with a “buddy”. Included in FS 1 is the enhancement of the students’ communication skills with his/her buddy since they are expected to be adequate in the language they will be using during their hands-on teaching in the remaining field studies.

Course Description Field Study 1 will introduce student observers to the learner’s behavior in the different phases of development, school environment and the school community. It offers them opportunities and prospects for career development as they observe the school structure, the classrooms, the school facilities, the teachers, the parents, and the students. This observation course provides them avenues to enhance their communication skills as they exchange ideas with their buddy, with the cooperating teachers, with pupils, and with parents. This observation includes the way teachers interact with each other, with students, with parents, and other stakeholders.

The classroom was nice and tidy the tables are on the proper arrangement in accordance of the comfort the pre-school students....
