ACTIVITY #1 Direction: Read this conversation then, answer the following
question. In a Grade 3 Science class
Teacher: What is the function of the mouth?
Student: To break the food into smaller pieces.
Teacher: Very Good! What about the stomach?
Student: To digest the food.
Teacher: Very good! Perfect! And the small intestines?
Student: To absorb the food nutrients.
Question: What classroom scenario is/ are being depicted by the comic strip and
the teacher-student question and answer? Support your answer.
In the conversation, between the question and answer proceedings conducted
by the teacher, can be observed that it depicts the usual scenario inside the
classroom. The teacher rely the most on asking low-level questions and students
answering them with what they’ve memorized the night before. It is just like, a
teacher will deposit these facts a day before then withdraws them during their
next meeting. It is the kind of banking system of education that Paulo Friere is
very much against as this does not make students reflect and relate whatever
he/she was taught to real life situations. It is not that we neglect facts. But
isolated facts makes no sense and only become meaningful when seen in
relation to other facts. Through further questioning thus connects the fact
which in return may help the learner see its meaning and relevance to his/her
life. Example: Students learned that food is broken down into pieces inside the
mouth, because he chooses the process of critical pedagogy, which utilises
equality between teachersand students, over banking methods which promotes
oppressive relationship between teachers to students.which is digested by the
stomach and is absorbed by the intestines. To further connect these facts,
teacher may ask what& what ifs. In relation to the given scenario above, the
philosophical thoughts on education serves as the supporting framework for
teachers on how he/she may handle his/her lesson, the learner or even the
approach of teaching which will focus on the two areas: What should be
taughtHow learners should be taught
ACTIVITY #2 Direction: Explain in a sentence why each education philosopher

A.JohnLocke- the empiricist because he believes that the learners acquire
knowledge by interacting with concrete experience, comparing, and reflecting
on the same experience.
B.Spencer- the utilitarianist because he developed and evolutionary
utilitarianism ethics in which the principles of ethical living are based on the

them to participate in the society.
D George Counts- Buliding a new social order because he dare the schools and
teachers to change the social order.
E.Theodore Brameld- the Social Reconstructionist because his philosophy
focuses on building a new society by letting the school examine and resolve the
society’s inconsistencies, controversies and conflicts. f. Paolo Freire - Critical

F.Paulo Friere- Critical pedagogy vs. Banking method because he chooses the
process of critical pedagogy, which utilises equality between teachersand
