The document discusses contextual learning, which involves experiences outside the classroom that allow students to apply their knowledge to real-world contexts. A primary goal of contextual learning is to prepare students for life after school. It involves facilitating learning activities that connect students' potential and knowledge to real problems and scenarios. Teachers should emulate real life in their lessons and use teaching methods like problem-based learning that involve students reflecting on what they've learned and how it applies.

3. Introduction
Contextual Learning is reality-based, outside-of-the-
classroom experience, within a specific context which
serves as a catalyst for students to utilize their disciplinary
knowledge, and which presents a forum for further
formation of their personal values, faith, and professional
development.

6. Cognitive development was a progressive reorganization of
mental processes as a result of biological maturation and
environmental experience. Children construct an
understanding of the world around them, then experience
discrepancies between what they already know and what they
discover in their environment.
“
Jean Piaget ”

7. How we get there
Building Connection
• Facilitate learning
activities that
stimulate students to
think of their
potential and real-
world knowledge
application.
Integrating real problems
• Integrate real in the
learning contents
with the type of
assessment that
enable them to know
how to apply the
knowledge. Teachers
need to be able to
emulate real life
scenario into
teaching.
Reflections
• Ask the students to
reflect what they
have learnt, what
they feel, and their
impressions on the
learning activities
and content.

8. Exemplification
Methods in teaching
• Problem-based
learning
• Project-based
learning
• Inquiry learning
• Discovery learning
Some real life problems
• Increasing number of
HIV, mental illness
due to porn, social
media, poor attitude,
low achievement,
inflation, etc., new
applied technology
Reflections
• Establishing
connection,
reaffirming
knowledge,
explaining impact,
