RATIONALE

Course Audit 1 is a subject offered to the BSED

4th year students to provide a comprehensive
review, testing and evaluation on the different
subject areas under Specialization which are
important parts in the Licensure Examination for
Teachers. The subject was conceived to meet the
need for updated literature and materials which are
designed to help teacher education graduates to
pass the board exam and become full-fledged
professionals .

It also provides students with the academic

and hands-on requirements needed to qualify for
the Licensure Examination for Teachers (LET). In
association with this, the 4th year students of BSED
Social Studies conducted a Seminar/Workshop on
Interactive Task-Based Teaching Strategies across
Disciplines. The purpose of the seminar is to equip
future teachers of Bachelor of Secondary Education
(BSED) with different Learner-centered Strategies
and Techniques and Assessment tools in teaching to
respond to the current trends of global Education
and to meet the demands of the ASEAN integration.

Specifically it aims to:

a. orient the participants with the Outcomes-

based Education (OBE) strategies and
assessment tools across disciplines;
b. appreciate entirely the importance of having
the background knowledge on the different
innovative task-based and outcomes-based
education (OBE) strategies and assessment
tools across disciplines; and
 c. employ properly the different strategies and
assessment tools in the Outcomes-based
Education (OBE) activities during the
workshop.

BACKGROUND OF THE SEMINAR

It is the goal of the Department of Education

that every teacher will become not only efficient but
also effective. It is in this mission that today, a lot
of trainings and seminars on new methods and
techniques in teachings, and the likes are being held
in different parts of the country so as to prepare all
the teachers in globalization and to improve and
develop the craft of each mentor in school.

Since Seminar Workshop and training are

useful for teachers the BSED Social Studies manned
a seminar entitled Seminar Workshop on Interactive
Task-based teaching Strategies across Disciplines
with the theme No Teacher is left Behind Go for
Outcomes-based Education.

The purpose of this seminar is to enhance

future teachers of Bachelor of Secondary Education
with the different student-centered strategies and
techniques and assessment tools in teaching to
respond to the current trends of global education
towards recognition of professional qualification,
harmonization, and standardization within ASEAN.

Moreover it is for the reason that the Filipino

Teachers are faced with global, challenges in the
teaching-learning situation.
 It is now a wakeup call to every future teacher
that there is a need for a change as we move on to
the 21st century. Gone are the days that we used
traditional strategies. There is no such best
strategy but there is an effective and appropriate
one in order to meet the needs of the students, to
create a more effective, meaningful and interactive
environment.

Changethere will be no more as days go by.

Teachers must be an active instrument of it so that
the teaching learning environment will improve.
