REFLECTION
The sift of face-face classes from the distance learning has been
difficult to most of the students and teacher also. And I am one of those who
have to make a huge effort in adjusting everything, especially that I have a
son, and my focus becomes divided.
From the very beginning of this lesson, I have been dumbfounded by
the topics laid upon. My mind have had a hard time processing everything
since I become used to the spoon feeding of Google and the teachers during
the modular/online learning. My mind becomes rusty, and well in fact, it
takes me a lot of readings and just repeatedly read the first lesson just to
make it sink in to my brain. It is really hard and too time consuming but I
have been determined to really understand everything because I have guided
by the principle that, I must learn and understand everything that is laid
2.
REFLECTION
In this lesson I have reminded that it is okay to feel lost and be
confused in your study. It is okay to stop working on those school works
and to consider your emotion in studying for somwetime. It’s okay to be
carefree sometimes, just to let your emotion out so that you will not
drown. Letting go of the bad or heavy emotion we have felt benefits us.
As a college student it’s been really a struggle. Pressures are
everywhere, and sometimes I don’t even know what I am doing. I would
sometimes doubt myself if I could do it till the end, till I reach the finish
line and land the job I dreamt about. But I just always tell myself that
after the rain there’s a rainbow. I may feel down today, but tomorrow
3.
REFLECTION
In life, we always encounter criticism, negative feedback that
would sometimes devastate our peaceful mind. But as for me all the
criticism I make it us a motivation to work harder, to show to them
that they are wrong, that they have not known me or my capacity. All
of it pushes me to strive harder and be better as a person as an
individual.
I firmly believe that, in life we need other people’s opinion for
us to perform better. We wouldn’t know if we did the right thing if
there were no colleagues to confirm it or appreciate it. We wouldn’t
know if we were wrong if we have no colleague to criticize it. To
sum it up, we wouldn’t become better or perform better if there were
no other people to judge us.
REFLECTION
Being a fourth year student really is difficult. We are bombarded
with so many activities. From our class immersion, activities and quizzes
from our remaining subjects, to making our thesis and complying all the
necessary forms/ documents, all of this requires great effort.
Most of the time, we feel confused, tired and drained. Our
motivation becomes so low that also affect our interest in doing things. I,
personally, will admit that I get carried away with my emotions and did not
do my best, often times I neglect my study. Due to stress, I mostly spend
my time in socmed, and do my activities only when it’s already due,
studying only when it is time for the quiz, all of this resulted in getting low
5.
REFLECTION
In this lesson, I was able to gain idea in what to do with my
portfolio. Making this portfolio is not easy at all. I don’t know how
to start, how to organize it, especially that the given example
showed only what to do in terms of reflecting the best output. Since
we have barely made output in each lesson I really did not know
what to put or what idea I should include as content in this
portfolio.
Though this lesson give hints, but still organizing my ideas
is hard. So that is why, most of the contents in this portfolio only
shows my realizations, which I am not sure if it’s right or wrong. I
had no idea at all. I just hope I did what I have to and that all I have
done is worth it.

REFLECTION
Just like following rubrics in doing school activities, in
life we followed also guidelines, rules and regulation. To be a
better citizen we must be aware of the laws, so that we can
perform better.
Guidelines allow me to do things in an accurate manner.
It helps me in successfully performing things. It makes me plan
things accordingly. Without guidelines, doing things will be in
chaos. There will be no organization and peace will never be
observed.

REFLECTION
I really thought that, when we evaluate students’ performance and
once we got the results everything is done, but then, it is not. There are
processes to be done in order to make the results valid and authentic.
Just like in life, we may thought that we have done enough and
the right thing but the truth is that we have not. Even sometimes, we have
to find ways to validate our actions, to justify it just to know or just to feel
fulfilled or complete.
In my life, there are a lot of things that I have done and are very
difficult to justify. I always question myself, why I have done it so?
What’s the purpose? Does it really satisfy me?
REFLECTION
At first, I really thought that everything the child does
inside the school only concerns the teachers, but then as we go
forward to this lesson I have realized that even inside the school
parents are involve in everything the child does. That is why,
having the parents come to school for them to be aware of the
progress of their child is an important thing to do.
I also thought that when the teacher ask for parents to
come, it was just all about the fees the parents has to pay because
mostly at my high school years, when there is a PTA meeting in
the school all I hear is the amount of money the parents have to
pay for the classroom projects for the school projects. But then
lately I realized that all those fees are for our own good also.
