“There is nothing permanent except change.”
-Heraclitus
The challenges brought about by pandemic COVID-19 seem to be an instance of
humid dusk, seeing twilight as if in movies with little hope of survival. Though little, what
is significant is hope. Hope that sparks. Hope that persists. Hope that succeeds.
In the education arena, we astonishingly enjoined ourselves to adapt change.
Within a short period, we were obliged to learn anew, to undergo a series of unlearning,
learning, and relearning. At the tuned spread of infection, we were at home, participating
innumerable webinars, trainings, and workshops. We regarded ourselves as learners
who starve for learning. But what is left? Did they leave us something to ponder?
As common to all of our endeavors, regardless of the number of lectures we
listen to and in spite of the mammoth amount of information we take, we cannot
appreciate them unless we apply them. Thus, in the Learning Delivery Modality Course,
we saw them coming. The LDM allowed us to understand what are comprehensively
contained in the Basic Education Learning Continuity Plan (BELCP). We were able to
differentiate learning modalities that are already existing in the field of alternative,
informal, and non-formal education yet vague. To mention, we knew that modular
learning can occur in either digital or print; that digital modular learning is different from
online distance learning; that television and radio can be used as means of learning.
In order to exemplify the circumstances and activities that provided opportunities
for continuing development, this LDM Practicum Portfolio has been made. Crafted with
honest touch and passionate heart, the contents of this portfolio are carefully selected
and arranged to put important regard to the interim but important system of education, in
this light of pandemic. Para sa Bata, Para sa Bayan! Sulong EduKALIDAD!

Annotation
Using his Bibliographic output as my reference, he found it hard to arrange the
information in coming up with Chicago Manual of Style bibliography. Hence, I
decided to include in my intervention class on citations. I allowed them to undergo
three intervention processes or sessions. After three formative assessments, he
attained the required mastery level.

Individual Learning Monitoring Plans
3.1 - Learners’ gender, needs, strengths, interests and experiences
Annotation
The learner had a difficulty in distinguishing different visual-verbal illustrations as
well as in analyzing and interpreting the data presented. Hence, I gave him
intervention opportunities. Though he did not meet the required level of mastery, I
saw significant progress that is needed to perform in the next set of tasks.

Individual Learning Monitoring Plans
3.1 - Learners’ gender, needs, strengths, interests and experiences
Annotation
The learner was not performing the tasks and was not keen in submitting requirements. I
immediately communicated with her mother to formulate plausible actions. The latter made us
into consensus as to specific alternative intervention activities I would apply. The identified
activities were helpful but not substantive enough to help the learner, ergo, she just attained
significant progress but below the level of mastery.

3.4 - Learners in difficult circumstances
Annotation
In the lesson on visual-verbal relationships, I conformed to most essential learning
competency in formulating specific lesson objectives. Though I was thinking of
creative ways in lesson presentation, I made sure that those were simple and
understandable for the learners across different walks of life, intelligences, and
learning styles.

3.4 - Learners in difficult circumstances
Annotation
In spite of the length of the original subject matter which also required much
analytical skills from the learners, I devised activities which were simplified and
shortened. I chose texts which were usually excerpted. Whilst doing these, the
most essential learning competency was taken into account.

Annotation
As a consolidator of weekly home learning plans in grade 8, I always looked at
both the curriculum guide and the most essential learning competencies before
filling-in the document for circulation. In addition, the activities were uniformly
patterned to strengthen the stimulus-response bond among the learners.

Codes Decrypted: Learning as Reflected in this Craft
When I was in college, I can still recall that we were taught about the different
principles of learning. What was striking to my ears are the principles, learning is a
painful process and learning is a continuous process. I took them significant starting then
since I thought that once I would graduate and land a decent job, I will no longer study.
But I was proven wrong.
Today, I can attest to the relevance of the two principles that I stated. With no
sugarcoated words, learning nowadays should be continuous yet painful. In order to put a
bridge that will somehow link the gap, the Learning Delivery Modality Course has been
put into practice in the field.
This year has been very tough for me due to the physical restrictions such as
meeting my learners or holding face-to-face Parent-Teachers’ conferences. Despite
these, my lethargic soul saw a glimpse of zeal since I experienced things that I
considered rare opportunities.
The craft that I exemplified in this work are honest proof of God’s power over me.
The prowess and efforts that I effortfully exerted influenced diverse products and
supported learning outcomes. Although it is a fact that some learners have just acquired
shallow concepts and skills due to unabridged and modified curriculum, others also have
significantly helped themselves grow and thrive with my aid as their facilitator.
On the other hand, I can proudly say that my learners have been working hard in
their subjects since I can constantly check on them through different modes and media.
What was good in the class that I handled is their responsiveness and promptness.

Their parents were also constantly checking on their performance and progress through sending
short messages. Others who physically submit their children’s outputs also often asked me about
progress and milestones their children have made.
Moreover, the means of verifications that I utilized were carefully chosen from among the
set of MOVs I have at present. I know that the education system is both outcomes and evidence-
based, hence, it is always imperative to have our undertakings documented. Perhaps, some
would say that it is too much to ask, but it is not a boast and form of conceit. It is a form of
modelling to others, our way of service to the marginalized, undeserved, and those who need
equitable education the most.
At some points, I may feel the normal burnout as if a candle losing its fuel. In spite of this, I
once again revitalized and given a sense of zest for God, for the country, and for the children. To
conclude, this work is not just a portfolio, it is a magnum opus. #
