    Competencies and Attributes of 21stCenturyFilipino Teachers

    The quality of a school system rests on the qualityof its teachers. - McKinsey & Company

    Introduction

    Today, many students can become a teacher but the challenge is that only few

    become effective teachers. To be an effective teacher involves mastering numerouscompetencies, tasks, and roles. It starts from having a good communication skill, a deep

    content knowledge and to a sound classroom management that allow organized

    instructions and providing relevant and fair evaluations. Moreover, an effective teacher is

    duty bound to create a healthy classroom atmosphere to encourage enthusiasm,motivation and meaningful teacherstudent relationship.

    What are the three (! broad domains of teaching"

    Teaching is not a simple undertaking but it is an intricate activity that reuires

    substantial thinking skills and a solid knowledge base. To engage in classroom teaching

    therefore demands teachers to master technical knowledge to become effective inrealizing their calling, task, and commitment. These areas of knowledge are basically

    categorized into three $+% broad domains. They are)

    '% Professional Knowledge5 This domain reuires knowing one6s students and how

    they learn. It also includes mastering the sub7ect content and knowing how to

    teach it. This type of knowledge means a demonstration of the teachers6

    understanding of the sub7ect content, curriculum, and the developmental needs ofthe learners. 8ithout the mastery of professional knowledge, the teachers cannot

    provide relevant and meaningful learning eperiences to their students.

    1ccording to Cochran, *e2uiter and (ing $'99+%, the professional knowledge

    that is essential to be an effective teacher etends well beyond knowledge of

    Teaching Competencies of Filipino Teachers

    What is competency"

    Competency is a pattern and combination of knowledge, skills, and attitudes that

    is needed by teachers to perform their enormous roles. These competencies are usuallyobservable and measurable through defined behaviors.

    What defines the teaching competencies needed by Filipino Teachers"

    The !ational Competency "ased Teacher #tandards $!C"T#% defines the

    professional competencies possessed by :ilipino teachers. It characterizes the ualities of

    2

  • 7/23/2019 Chapter 4 Teaching Competencies in the 21st Century

    3/33

    an effective :ilipino teacher which is standardized or the same to all basic education

    teachers in the country. This professional development guide was made in #eptember,

    &@@? by the *epartment of ducation through the Teacher ducation Council.

    What are the legal bases of )C'T&"

    The crafting of !C"T# is anchored on 2epublic 1ct !o. 9'00 or the "asic

    ducation 1ct and the "asic ducation #ector 2eform 1genda $"#21% as well as 2.1.

    //A4,the law creating the Teacher ducation Council $TC%. ;owever, theimplementation and adoption of !C"T# in all public elementary and secondary schools

    in the country is legitimized by!epd "rder #o $%. s. %'.

    What is the )C'T&"

    The !C"T# is a student centered mode of teaching which is a complete departure

    from the traditional teacher focused teaching and learning. It is an integrated theoretical

    framework that defines the different dimensions $i.e., core competencies, principles, andvalues% of effective teaching. This framework is balanced because it is anchored on the

    different educational theories that govern what makes an effective teaching. Moreover,!C"T# clearly articulates the strategic and indispensable role of the teacher in the

    learning process of the students. The assumption is that the uality of students is 7ust as

    good as the uality of their teachers. This is short to saying, enhance the competencies ofthe teachers and the learning of the students will also improve.

    What does standard mean"

    1 standard may mean criterion, benchmark, model, measure, and paradigm. :rom

    this meaning, the !C"T# as a standard means setting the criteria, benchmark, model,measure, and paradigm for what it takes to be an effective :ilipino Teacher. In short, it

    identifies the key elements of uality teaching.

    What oes Competency*'ased +ean"

    The *epd !C"T#, 1 3rofessional Buide for :ilipino Teachers $&@@?%, definescompetencybased to mean the standards or criteria for characterizing good teaching

    measured in terms of what the teacher is competent to do. Instead of measuring good

    teaching practice in terms of teacher6s credentials,

  • 7/23/2019 Chapter 4 Teaching Competencies in the 21st Century

    4/33

    Why do teachers need )C'T&"

    Teachers need the !C"T# as a guide in carrying out their teaching practices and

    professional development needs. These competencies are the shared definition of the

    principals, supervisors, superintendents, teachers, students and other stakeholders of whatmakes an effective teacher or what they epect from an effective teacher.

    Moreover, :ilipino teachers need the !C"T# because they often get confused

    about what it means to be an effective teacher. :or eample, they may have been taughtthe characteristics of good teaching by teachereducators in their preservice education

    that seem to be different from what their principals and supervisors epect in their

    schools.

    What are the three*fold purposes of )C'T&"

    1s gleaned from the periential

    5/33

    1ccording to the !C"T#T#!1 Drientation Manual Buide for Trainers and

    Implementers and Toolkit, teachers can use the !C"T# in many ways as follows)

    '. /s a guide to reflect on their current teaching practices5 !C"T# allows teachers

    to be contemplative on their actions and fleible in what they do. This isparticularly true in the use of technical knowledge like strategies and activities so

    as to guarantee best learning outcomes. The focus of teachers is what the students

    have to learn successfully as well as what they can show from what they havelearned. In this framework, the focus of their teaching practices must shift from

    what to teach and how to teach the sub7ect to what the students are able to

    demonstrate as knowledge, skills, and attitude.

    &. /s a framewor) for creating new teaching practices 5 !C"T# provides the

    structure to which teachers are able to generate new ways, approaches, and

    strategies to facilitate or help students achieve optimal learning. It is !C"T# that

    cues teachers to continuously think and further improve their teaching so as tobecome better teachers for the students.

    +. /s a guidepost for planning professional de*elopment goals 5 !C"T# is the

    roadmap $through teacher development map% that leads teachers to think on how

    they will continue to improve from their previous best as they are being chargedto become facilitators of students6 learning. It is this integrated framework that

    sets the professional development goals of teachers from preservice training, in

    service training, and continuing professional development program. #ignificantly,

    the professional development of teachers under the !C"T# is transformational,contetual, and eperiential. It is not informational or merely providing new and

    updated technical knowledge for teachers. 1s this is the case, teachers are no

    longer passive receivers of technical knowledge and professional development.They are rather active and reflective processors and constructors of their own

    development.

    4. /s a common language for discussing teaching practices with other teachers 5

    !C"T# allows teachers to have a common vocabulary for discussing their

    teaching practices. It is 7ust like teachers singing the same song with the same

    tune in the practice of teaching. In discussing teaching uality with colleagues andsupervisors, they can share their best practices as well as their most innovative

    means and ways to improve their teaching. This is because of the concept that all

    best practices along uality teaching are aligned with the domains, strands, andindicators set in the !C"T#. #ignificantly, it is in performing these domains,

    strands, and indicators that constitutes the ideal :ilipino teacher.

    0. /s guide for thin)ing critically aout whether the teacher+s current practices are

    helping students attain the learning goals in the curriculum5 Considering that

    !C"T# is the *epd6s new paradigm for uality teaching and a new common

    framework for understanding teaching uality, teachers are able to recognize thattheir knowledge approaches and style are not applicable to varied learners and

    contet. Thus, they are empowered to make educational decisions in the education

    process and to be held accountable whether or not students are able to attain thelearning goals as defined in the curriculum.

    What is meant by domain"

    1 domain is a distinctive sphere of the teachinglearning process and is also a

    welldefined arena for demonstrating positive teacher practices. The domains are the

    areas to which all teachers must develop professionally. There are seven $/% domainsunder the !C"T#. ach domain is defined in terms of a principle of ideal teaching

    learning. In performing their role, they have to become eperts in two domains

    namely) domains on the )nowledge and s)ills for facilitating learning or good

    teaching strategies$domains + to 0% and domains called teaching practices thatattempt to situate or at least lin) the teaching-learning process to appropriate

    nder each domain, there are strands. #trands refer to more specific dimensions

    of positive teacher practices under the broad conceptual domain. There are twenty three$&+% strands under the !C"T#.

    What is meant by indicators"

    nder each strand, specific indicators are defined. Indicators are concrete,

    observable, and measurable teacher behaviors, actions, habits, actions, routines, and

    practices. They are known to create, facilitate, and support enhanced student learning.They are also at the lowest level of the hierarchical organization. There are eighty $A@%

    workers in society.

    &. Collaoration5 it means working together to reach a goal. It also means putting

    talent, epertise, and smarts to work. #tudents who have been used to collaborate

    tend to become effective team players in their future social and professionalactivities. They show cooperation in all undertakings and offer collective

    decisions and solutions instead of a very individualistic and uncooperativebehavior.

    +. Critical thin)ing5 it means looking at problems in a new way and linkinglearning across sub7ects and disciplines. #tudents who show critical thinking are

    able to identify the root of a problem and apply multiple solutions learned from

    Attributes of a # to 12 Teacher

    3reparing teachers for the ( to '& educational reform reuires a change of

    professional attributes. There is a need to shift the teachers6 perspective from thetraditional way of looking at teaching and learning process to a more dynamic and

    studentcentered perspective. The reason for this is clear and simple. The students they

    teach and the environment to which these students live are far different from the contetto which they have been taught and lived. To make education responsive and relevant to

    the &'stcentury landscape, teachers need to reinvent themselves. They have to determinethe attributes they need to possess in order to become effective teachers responding to the

    &'stcentury students, &'stcentury environment, and &'stcentury challenges.

    The following discussions present the attributes reuired from the ( to '&

    teachers inasmuch as this educational reform was crafted by the 3hilippine government toprepare the :ilipino youngsters to live healthily and meaningfully in the &'stcentury.

    What are the attributes of a # to 12 Teacher"

    The goal of the ( to '& education reform is to upgrade the country6s education

    system and align it to the reuirements of the &'st century. To realize this goal, it isreuired that ( to '& teachers have to develop essential knowledge, skills, and attitudesthat will enable students to cope with these changes. It is imperative that they know the

    Teachers)

    Multi-literate 5 ( to '& education recognizes that information and

    communications technologies $ICTs% have penetrated the classrooms at a veryrapid pace. Teachers are now faced with the growing challenge to teach the &' st

    century learners who are Ewired6 and who are becoming more and more

    EwirelessF in the use of technology. Teaching and living in the &'st centurytherefore reuires the development of new types of literacies. Teachers have to be

    knowledgeable with the use of various technologies and this demands them to

    have media literacy, digital literacy, information literacy, and technological

    literacy, among others. amples of these literacies are creating and editing audio-using social networking sites to connect with colleagues and grow professionally-

    and compiling a digital eportfolio for professional development. Dthers include

    detecting plagiarized works in students assignment, using digital assessment tools

    to create uizzes, using blogs and wikis to create online platforms for students,eploiting digital images for classroom use, using video content to engage

    students, and using infographics to visually stimulate students,

    Multi-specialist5 8ith the central goal of ( to '& education to develop holistic

    learners, it is a basic attribute of teachers to be multispecialist. They must not only

    be epert in a single sub7ect area but they have to epand their knowledge in otherdisciplines so as to make a good integration of all students6 learning and

    eperiences. ;olistic development is ensured once students are taught to see the

    connection of their learning and eperiences in science, math, social studies, etc.

    The ( to '& curriculum reuires that after separately teaching students with Math,

    #cience, #3, #ocial #tudies, and the like, they are capable of synthesizing allwhat they have learned in one unified and integrated concept. This is to show that

    life is not composed of bits and pieces of things and neither is it a fragmentedlearning and eperiences.

    compels teachers to adapt to diverse learning styles and needs of the students. 1

    classroom made up of 4@ students reuires 4@ different methods and strategies ofaddressing their uniue learning needs and styles. There is no best strategy or

    single approach that fits all students. "eing a fleible teacher is also important

    because the classroom is never a static environment. It is rather a dynamicenvironment that changes depending on the lesson, type of learning activity,

    interest, and motivation of the students.

    Creati*e prolem sol*er 5 1chieving uality education reuires that ( to '&

    teachers have to show competence in creative problem solving. It starts from

    being able to accurately identify the problem to generating ideas and offering

    solutions to the problems using innovative ideas. 1 good teacher is one whoprovides creative solutions to the problems and challenges of his life, profession

    and society.

    Critical thin)er Critical thinking is a fundamental reuirement of ( to '&education. It is the ability of teachers to improve the uality of their thinking

    through reasoned 7udgement, reflective thoughts, selfcorrective, and self

    disciplined manner. This attribute is very important considering that one of thegoals of ( to '& education is to develop ;igher Drder Thinking #kills $;DT#%

    among students. They must scaffold their students to reach the highest levels of

    cognition which are evaluating and creating.

    Eas passion for e0cellent teaching5 ( to '& teachers must have the desire and

    appetite to teach with ecellence and uality. They have to show that there is thrill

    and pleasure in acuiring knowledge and skills. This passion must contaminate

    the students to learn and succeed in life. The passion to teach for ecellenceallows teachers to 7ourney from being merely good to great in their teaching. This

    passion for ecellent teaching cannot be faked because it is something that is seen

    over a sustained period of time. i.e from entrance to retirement in the profession.

    Eigh motional @uotient B@5 "eing a ( to '& teacher does not solely depend

    on intelligence uotient but it also relies heavily on one6s emotional uotient.There are numerous teachers who are intelligent but they become ineffective

    because they are incapable of controlling their own feelings and emotions which

    is imperative to guide them in their thinking and actions inside the classroom. (to '& teachers who have high emotional uotient have the heart for teaching
