about what makes the method effective.

HE – Travel Services Page 1


Note: The list of teaching strategies below have been chosen for their
application in K-12 classrooms from a larger list of research-based pedagogies on
the site. However, these suggested teaching strategies may vary from teacher-to-
teacher. It is up to the teacher whether to follow the strategies or not and that
depends on the creativity of the teacher.

1. Conducting Science with Students

The following methods take different approaches to assisting educators


in conducting science with students. In some methods, students collect data
and analyze it following a series of guided questions. In another, students are
made aware of how they can conduct science outside the classroom.
Whichever method is used, students learn how scientific knowledge is gained
and learn to interpret data.

a. Indoor Labs - Indoor labs are a staple of K-12 education. This


teaching strategy encourages cooperation in small groups and
participation in doing science.

b. Field Labs- Field labs are engaging to students because they can
experience the science that they have been taught in the classroom.

c. Process of Science- Teaching the process of science means taking


the aspects of how science is conducted and making these ideas
explicit for students, allowing them to discover how scientific
knowledge is gained.

d. Process-Oriented Guided Inquiry Learning - In this approach,


groups of students work together through data and questions to
discover a scientific concept. A similar resource is titled Classroom
Experiments.

e. Guided Discovery Problems - Guided Discovery Problems lead


students through a progression of questions with supporting diagrams
from simple to complex to build student's understanding of a concept
as they discover it themselves.

f. Campus-Based Learning - Campus-based projects can provide


hands-on, real-world projects that can be accomplished without a field
trip budget or transportation by using buildings and grounds as
teaching tools.

HE – Travel Services Page 2


g. Teaching with Data- Data can be observations, raw data, or
processed data and can be collected by or presented to students.

h. Teaching Students to Write Quantitatively - This resource teaches


students how to use and interpret data in their writing. Assignments are
presented that utilize a variety of formats ranging from formal essays to
informal reports and posters.

2. Group Work Methods

Group work is a way of getting students to work together to solve a


problem or learn new information. By using group work, educators teach
students how to learn from one another's ideas. Since scientists do not work
in isolation, using group work in a structured way can teach students skills in
collaboration and accountability, similar to skills scientists must have.

a. Cooperative Learning - Cooperative Learning involves structuring


classes around small groups that work together so that each group
member's success is dependent on the group's success.

b. Jigsaws - In a jigsaw, teams of students prepare separate but related


assignments. A team regroups then teach each other about their prepared
portion of the learning.

c. Gallery Walks - In a Gallery Walk, questions are posted at stations


around the room. Teams of students rotate around the classroom,
composing answers to questions while reflecting upon the answers given
by other groups.

3. Innovative Methods for Application and Analysis

Students’ ability to respond to a higher order of questioning


demonstrates the degree to which they understand a particular topic. In the
following methods, students are required to justify answers, apply information,
or analyze ideas. These methods are very useful for eliciting student's
understanding of what they have been taught and also for identifying any
remaining misconceptions students may hold.

a. Direct Measurement Videos - These short, high-quality videos of real


events that students can use to explore and apply physics concepts. The
videos can be used for labs, homework, assessments, or open-ended
problems. Several of the videos are paired with classroom-ready

HE – Travel Services Page 3


activities that integrate videos into the introductory mechanics curriculum.
What sets these videos apart from others is that students can measure
distances, time, angles, and other variables right from the videos, allowing
for a wide variety of quantitative and theoretical exploration.

b. Documented Problem Solving- This process requires students to record


their thought processes as they solve a problem. Instead of simply
presenting a solution, students must explain their reasoning for arriving at
their solution.

c. Game-Based Learning - In game-based learning, students compete to


learn materials. Included in this resource are tips for making a meaningful
game, making rules fair, and grading.

d. Interactive Lecture Demonstrations- This resource provides formatting


for scaffolding learning from demonstrations. Students predict an outcome,
observe the demonstration and reflect on their previous assumptions of
the outcome.

e. Socratic Questioning - Educators present thoughtful questions for


students to discuss which cause them to think critically about a topic or
issue. The educator then requires students to justify their responses.

f. Experience-based Environmental projects - Experience-based


environmental projects offer a way for students to apply classroom topics
like energy use, global warming, water quality and land use to their own
lives, and to realize that although these issues may be global or regional,
they ultimately have roots at the individual level.

g. Civic Engagement and Service Learning - Connecting students with


community members to conduct science in areas similar to what you are
teaching in the classroom can be a very powerful lesson to students that
what they are learning is relevant and useful to their future careers and
lives as informed citizens.

h. Service Learning - When students link a learning project with community


service, they are conducting service learning. This resource presents
information on why service learning is valuable, tips on how to start a
service learning component in your classroom, and how
to assess students' learning and get students to reflect on their work.

HE – Travel Services Page 4


4. Making Lecture Interactive

a. Interactive Lecture Demonstrations- This resource provides formatting


for scaffolding learning from demonstrations. Students predict an outcome,
observe the demonstration and reflect on their previous assumptions of
the outcome.

b. Lecture Tutorials - This resource offers suggestions and rationale for


creating worksheets for students to complete as they listen to lecture
presentations. These worksheets make lectures more interactive and help
students understand what information is most important from lectures.

5. Teaching in Urban Settings

a. Teaching Urban Students - Urban students may experience the natural


world differently than students from rural backgrounds. Urban students
may also have cultural and ethnic backgrounds that may benefit from
teaching in non-traditional ways. This resource presents methods for
engaging urban students in science classes.

SYNTHESIS

Travel – it allows us to relish the multicolored and flavorful cultures served


before us in the banquet of life. Categorically, we travel to explore strange and
uncharted worlds, and later on, realize that no matter how diverse our orientations
are, still, we are united by our powerful faith in our religion, and by our ceaseless
liking for pleasure. We travel to lose ourselves to the fascinating burst of man’s
precise designs and God’s incomparable art sense – both intertwined to create bliss.
Indeed, we travel, then we explore, appreciate, and finally, realize. But, along our
travel, we breakaway – we acquire new perspectives in life and heave old principles,
and most importantly, we find ourselves once again, in the process of rebuilding
ourselves, We fortify our identity as a Filipino, and we keep a sanctuary of patriotism
in our deepest core.
On the other hand, travel is not solely for personal advantage. In fact, the
Travel-and-Tourism domain is delivering significant economic contribution in the
Philippines today. It opens thousands of job opportunities available for Filipinos
nationwide and even overseas, thus, spurring innovation for inclusive growth, and
transforming the lives of people to the best quality of living there is.
The value of travel and tourism, subjectively and in general is inevitable. This
is the very reason why familiarizing oneself with the functions of the various
personnel involved in this area is primordial. In every traveler’s endeavor in exploring
different parts of the world, there are intermediary channels between commercial
establishments and clienteles such as travel agencies and travel management
companies that can assist them in realizing their travel plans. A traveler should be
well-adept as to the steps undertaken in instituting and setting travel management
business. Moreover, how travel agencies perform their business online using
Computerized Reservation System (CRS) and Global Distribution System (GDS)
should be recognized in order to facilitate comfort and assurance in achieving a

HE – Travel Services Page 146


worthwhile itinerary.

Several factors should be taken into account when dealing with travel and
tourism – the visitors’ length of stay, origination, purpose of visit, distance traveled,
means of transportation, kind of accommodations given to them and other
dimensions. There are also factors that push or distract them from traveling; whether
as part of leisure, business, or both. Other important factors that influence the
visitors upon traveling are their needs, motives, and aspirations, as well as their
preferences that will conform to the travel market and destination.

To close, travel and tourism require one to undergo careful steps, to make
practical decisions, and to deal with service providers in a manner that exhibits
broad-mindedness, respect, and professionalism. It is through bearing these
essentials in travel and tourism that one could actually come across an experience of
a lifetime.
