How should I facilitate my learning session?
Before the arrival of my trainees, I prepared the appropriate training facilities
and resources based on the session requirements. I also prepared and set up the nine learning areas—PWA, LRA, Institutional Assessment Area, Contextual Learning Area, QCA, Trainers Resource Area, Distance Learning Area, Computer Laboratory, and Support Service Area—according to learning activities. I also prepared and set up the tools and equipment—a laptop and projector—according to the learning act. I prepared my pre-assessment instruments (attendance sheet, pre- training tools in accordance with the number of trainees, TRB, Training Activity Matrix, Progress Chart, Achievement Chart, Competency Assessment Tools, CBLM, and the materials needed), as well as the facilities and materials needed to administer RPL Orientation and explain the roles of the trainer and trainee. I verified the trainee’s attendance when they arrived. I introduce myself to the trainees and start the orientation, during which I covered competency-based training (10 principles of CBT, CBT process flow, roles of the trainees and the trainer, an overview of the qualifications, CBLM and its sections, and the evaluation system). I also gave them the pre-assessment tools to recognize their prior learning. Trainees with RPL will proceed to the institutional assessment area, and those without RPL will proceed to the learning resource area to read the CBLM. Then proceed to the practical work area to demonstrate the task or activity sheet from the CBLM and have it evaluated using the performance criteria checklist. They will then be provided with a certificate of achievement. The lesson is student-centered because we are using the CBT approach, which emphasizes what the learners can actually do. It focuses on the outcome rather than the learning process within a specified time frame. In facilitating my session, I always consider the adult learning principle because learning is made easier by using a variety of training methods and techniques. It is very important that I always consider the appropriate training methods and techniques because, if we have 25 trainees, there are 25 different learning styles, needs, and interests. One of the assessment tools I used was the RPL tools, which are the data gathering tool for the trainee’s characteristics, the self-assessment checklist, and the pretest. I always consider improving my methods because there is a need for improvement if the TESDA suddenly changes the curriculum and delivery of the training. In providing feedback, it is very important to me to give positive feedback first. It is very important that when providing negative feedback, I ask the trainees first how they felt during the training and let them explain why they failed to perform a particular task before reinforcing the negative feedback. Further, it is very important to ask them to evaluate the training session as well as me as their trainer. For the purpose of improvements and revisions, we need to let the trainees give us feedback on their trainer. For the purpose of improvements and revisions, we need to let the trainees give us feedback. This will somehow help the training center and the trainer improve their weaknesses and increase their strengths.
