Reflection
Study the following situations. Choose the best option by putting a check on
the space provided for each choice. Explain your answer.
Situation no. 1
Being a person known for his integrity and credibility, Mr. Elbert R. Tolentino has
been serving as part of the Board of Election Canvassers for the past 10 years.
However, in the coming elections, his mother will be running as barangay captain.
Because of this, he is asked to campaign for her. Is it alright for him to campaign for
his mother’s candidacy? Explain your answer.
-Even the situation changed, a teacher must not indulge her/himself in any political
events.
Situation no. 2
Mr. Mario Ocampo, who has been teaching for the last 25 years, refused to attend
an important conference in Mindanao. Every time he is asked by the principal to
attend such an activity, he always requests a new teacher to attend. As a
professional teacher, is it right to express refusal in attending conferences.
- It depends on the reason of the teacher, but for me, the principal knows the strength
and weaknesses of the teachers within his/her concern, maybe he/she always
requested Mr. Ocampo, because Mr. Ocampo needs this one for his/her improvement
and knowledge.
Situation no. 3
Ms. Rose Q. Reyes posted two-piece swimwear picture of herself in her Facebook
page. She received negative comments from the community and stakeholders. Ms.
Reyes justified that she has the right to post anything on her Facebook account
since it was her personal account. Is it right for Mrs. Reyes to do such?
-Based from the Code of ethics of a Professional teacher, a teacher must uphold at all
cost being a model of the community because he/she holds a great influence in the
community, especially to the young ones. So for me, it is not right, even if it is your
personal account, still, you are an entrusted model of the community, so be it.
Situation no. 4
During barangay fiesta, Mr. Ben Y. Maya was designated as the fiesta directorate
chairman. Because of his talent, he accepted the task willingly even without any
honorarium. He facilitated culture-based activities that made their barangay
fiesta a significant one. Is it alright for Mr. Maya not to receive any compensation
for his services rendered since this will be a precedent for the succeeding activity
coordinator?
-For me, it is the decision of Mr. Maya and the coordinator should tell the
arrangement to Mr. Maya beforehand.
Situation no. 5
Mrs. Dae P. Habalo, of Sibulan National High School refused to admit a
student for not being a resident of the said barangay where the school is
located. Is it right for her to do so?
--The decision of Mrs. Habalo is not right because there is a policy that every school
should not say no to any students who wants to enroll in school whether the student is
not a resident of the barangay.
Situation no. 6
Traditionally, a civic parade is held with school participating during Independence
Day. All teachers and students are required to attend. All of Mrs. Katherine Y.
Sedillo’s students are excited to join the said parade but she did not join them due to
personal reason and only asked the president of the class to check the attendants of
his classmates. Is the decision of Mrs. Sedillo not answerable for any untoward
incident to happen to the student.
-The teacher should not neglect his/her obligations at all times even the situation tells
his/her to. In the situation above, it is alright to Mrs. Sedillo to ask other teacher to look
upon her students, and that teacher should abide to it honestly , not to the class
president.
Situation no. 7
Madam Estelita Ramos, a teacher III at Malunta Elementary School has a take-
home pay of P 7,500.00 every month. She decided to borrow money from
Provincial Savings Bank with a monthly deduction of P3,500. In the same month
she also borrowed money to First Diamond Lending Company with a monthly
deduction of P 3,500.00. In the first 2 months she enjoyed a take home pay of
P7,500.00 because the 2 lending institutions will deduct on the 3 rd month from
the date she borrowed. Is it alright for Mrs. Ramos to borrow the amount
considering that she don’t have enough take home pay when the deduction will
take effect?
-For me, I am not in favor to the way she manage her money because in times of
emergency you don’t have enough money to rely on especially in your everyday needs
like foods, clothing and etc. Be thrifty and wise.
Situation no. 8
Mr. Ricky dela Cruz is one of the youngest teacher in Silab Community High
School. Due to his young age he has lots of friends and barkadas. After school
hours, he is always seen with his friends in an internet café playing Dota, in
gambling dens, and in beerhouses. He also frequently seen in discos during
weekends. Is Mr. Cruz acting as a good model to his students?
-Being friends with students is fine, but too much of it might give you headaches.
For me, he is not acting as good model to them because teachers serve as role
model to his/her students and act as a good example. We have big
responsibilities in nurturing learners so be responsible in every thing you do.
Every move you make has a big impact to them.
