1. Under the 21st Century Life and Career Skills, which enables a person to respond to the change of
modernity?
A. Flexibility and Adaptability
B. Social and Cross-Cultural skills
C. Leadership and Responsibility
D. Productivity and Accountability
RATIONALIZATION:
Flexibility and Adaptability in the classroom are two of most important qualities that every teacher must
possess. These two characteristics also go hand-in-hand with one another. Flexibility is the idea that your
plans can change very quickly, sometimes with notice and sometimes without. Receiving criticism (good
and bad) from your advisers is extremely important in terms of flexibility because it will force you to
change up what you are used to doing. Being flexible means incorporating this feedback into your
teaching. Also, on-the-spot changes may also need to me made based on certain situations in the
classroom, often without prior realization. Adaptability is the ability to adapt to change. In general, it is
being able to acclimate yourself to changing roles, job responsibilities, material, and schedules. If you
cannot accommodate for these different aspects of teaching, it will be difficult to give your students the
best learning experience that they could possibly get, and of course that's always the goal!

national and regional) are internalized and practiced together to solve problems and to work towards a
just and free, peaceful and democratic society. Learning to live together involves developing, broadening
or changing perceptions of an attitude toward ourselves and others and consequently, the way we behave

cooperative and collaborative process” by not giving group work to his students. Collaborative learning is
a method of teaching and learning in which students team together to explore a significant question or
create a meaningful project. Cooperative groups work face-to-face and learn to work as a team. In small
groups, students can share strengths and also develop their weaker skills.

RATIONALIZATION:
No one can learn for us in the same way that nobody can eat for us, nor live for us, nor die for us. If it is
my brother who solves my assignment in algebra, then it is my brother not me who will master the skill
of solving problems in algebra. This means that we must actively engage the learners in learning activities
if we want them to learn what we intend to teach. We must give our students opportunities to participate
in classroom activities. This quote serves as a summary of the first principle: “What I hear, I forget. What I
see, I remember. What I do, I understand.”
13. Mr. Sevilla requires his class to conduct research, write a research report and defend the same before a

A. III and IV C. II, III and IV

B. I, III and IV D. I, II, III and IV
RATIONALIZATION:
Marzano and Kendall have given Bloom’s taxonomy a bit of working over. They reframed the three
Domains and instead of categorizing learning activities they describe six levels of processing knowledge
as follows.
 Retrieval – involves the recognition and recall of information and the execution of mental
procedures and psychomotor procedures.
 Comprehension – involves the integration and symbolization of knowledge.
 Analysis – involves matching and classifying activities, analyzing errors, generalizing from
foundational knowledge and specifying logical consequences.
 Knowledge Utilization – involves decision-making, problem-solving, experimenting and
investigating.
 Meta-cognitive System –involves the learner’s specification of learning goals, monitoring of the
learner’s own process, clarity and accuracy of learning. Simply put involves the learner’s
organization of their own learning.
 Self-System – involves the learner’s examination of the Importance of the learning task and their
self-efficacy. It also involves the learner’s emotional response to the learning task and their
motivation regarding it.

to the class before the students began with their task. Based on revised Bloom’s taxonomy, in which level of
cognitive processing are the students?
A. Applying C. Synthesizing
B. Analyzing D. Evaluating
RATIONALIZATION:
Bloom's taxonomy is a set of three hierarchical models used to classify educational learning objectives
into levels of complexity and specificity. The three lists cover the learning objectives in cognitive, affective
and sensory domains. The cognitive domain list has been the primary focus of most traditional education
and is frequently used to structure curriculum learning objectives, assessments and activities.
 Knowledge – involves recognizing or remembering facts, terms, basic concepts, or answers without
necessarily understanding what they mean. Its characteristics may include:
a) Knowledge of specifics—terminology, specific facts
b) Knowledge of ways and means of dealing with specifics—conventions, trends and sequences,
classifications and categories, criteria, methodology
c) Knowledge of the universals and abstractions in a field—principles and generalizations,
theories and structures
 Comprehension – involves demonstrating an understanding of facts and ideas by organizing,
comparing, translating, interpreting, giving descriptions, and stating the main ideas.
 Application – involves using acquired knowledge—solving problems in new situations by applying
acquired knowledge, facts, techniques and rules. Learners should be able to use prior knowledge to
solve problems, identify connections and relationships and how they apply in new situations.
 Analysis – involves examining and breaking information into component parts, determining how
the parts relate to one another, identifying motives or causes, making inferences, and finding
evidence to support generalizations.
 Synthesis – involves building a structure or pattern from diverse elements; it also refers to the act
of putting parts together to form a whole.
 Evaluation – involves presenting and defending opinions by making judgments about information,
the validity of ideas, or quality of work based on a set of criteria.

16. This is the time the teacher actually spends in the classroom giving instruction by various means.
A. Academic learning time
B. Mandated time

RATIONALIZATION:
The clock seems to manage every school day. The daily schedule is based on a variety of factors, such as
state- or district-mandated time periods for a given subject, bus schedules, local school schedules for
special classes, lunch periods, and teacher planning time. Wong and Wong (1998) describe four different
types of school-day time:
 Allocated time. The total time for teacher instruction and student learning.
 Instructional time. Also known as teaching time.The time teachers are actively teaching.
 Engaged time. The time students are involved in a task.

RATIONALIZATION:
Outcomes-Based Education/Outcomes-Based Teaching-Learning (OBE/OBTL) is focused not on what the
teacher intends to teach but rather the emphasis is on what is the outcome from the learner of that
teaching is intended to be. The basic premise of OBTL is that the teaching and learning activities and
assessment methods are constructively aligned with the intended learning outcomes (ILOs) for the
course. In other words, the outcomes determine the curriculum content, the teaching methods and
strategies, and the assessment process. The outcomes also provide a framework for curriculum
evaluation.

C. A summary
D. A short conclusion
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is B. Previewing is important because it allows you to use time more efficiently. It will
help the students better understand the structure and content of the teacher’s lesson.
21. In the instructional process, as the teacher completes the instruction on the lesson, what serves as the basis
of new lesson?
A. New information
B. Instructional tool
C. Appropriate methodology
D. Knowledge base
RATIONALIZATION:
New learning is constructed on prior knowledge. When we present them with problems or new
information, their prior knowledge and experiences influence their thinking. The more we understand
about what students already think, and the more we help them engage their prior understandings, the
more likely they are to learn well – and the less likely they are to misinterpret the material in our courses.
22. In introducing new lesson, what is important to consider by way of lesson continuity?
A. Relate past lesson to new lesson.
B. Prepare the instructional materials
C. Introduce new lesson.
D. Prepare new audio visual
RATIONALIZATION:
A review connects the current lesson with previous lessons by going over points that were taught or
learned previously.
23. Which of the following best implements research - based learning?

A. Power Point
B. Whole class discussion
C. Information data gathering
D. Intensive seat work
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is C, information data gathering. Research-based teaching means that students carry
out research in their courses independently and with an open outcome. This helps to internalize and
practice research conducts and methods, skills such as formulating a precise question and processing and
monitoring a research process.
24. The subject matter is the ASEAN Qualifications Framework (AQRF). The Asian History teacher teams up
with the Economics teacher, the Professional Education teacher for a thorough discussion of AQRF from the
perspective of other disciplines. Which describes the Asian History teacher’s pedagogical approach?
A. Reflective C. Inquiry-Based
B. Integrated D. Constructivist
RATIONALIZATION:
The integrated approach helps pupils get a unified view of reality, and enhances their capability to
acquire real-life skills. It does this by linking learning content between and among subject areas. There is
integration when pupils are able to connect what they are learning in one subject area to a related
content in another subject area. For instance, topics learned in Math or Social Studies may be used by the
pupils with related concepts and skills in Reading and Language. The quality of learning outcomes
improves as pupils are able to integrate information across disciplines instead of acquiring them in
isolation.
25. Teacher Belinda avoids out-of-context drills. Instead she used real world problems for her students to
solve. Doing so makes Teacher Beth in approach.
A. Reflective
B. Constructivist
C. Inquiry-based
D. Developmentally appropriate
RATIONALIZATION:
Inquiry-based learning is an approach to learning that emphasizes the student's role in the learning
process. Rather than the teacher telling students what they need to know, students are encouraged to
explore the material, ask questions, and share ideas. Inquiry-based learning uses different approaches to
learning, including small-group discussion and guided learning. Instead of memorizing facts and material,
students learn by doing. This allows them to build knowledge through exploration, experience, and
discussion.
26. How will you describe activities which involve questions and answers leading to discovery of an answer or
solution?
A. Interdisciplinary
B. Innovative
C. Integrative
D. Interactive
RATIONALIZATION:
Interactive learning is a hands-on approach to helping students become more engaged and retain more
material. With or without a form of technology, interactive learning helps students strengthen problem-
solving and critical thinking skills.
27. Teacher Janus talked all period. He taught the class the steps to undertake in the conduct of an action
research. He also showed a poorly done action research. He explained why it is poorly done and finally
showed a model action research. Which teaching approach describes Teacher Janus’ lesson development?
Was Teacher Janus’ learner-centered?
A. No, he was more subject matter-centered and teacher-centered.
B. No, because his subject matter was highly technical.
C. Yes, he taught for all learners.
D. Yes, he made things easy for the learners.
RATIONALIZATION:
In the teacher-centered teaching approach, the teacher is perceived to be the only reliable source of
information in contrast to the learner-centered approach while in the subject-matter centered approach,
the subject matter gains primacy over that of the learner.
28. For meaningful teaching and learning, it is best to connect the lesson to the life of students by integrating a
relevant value in the lesson. Which principle is applied?
A. Write SMART lesson objectives/intended learning outcomes.
B. Begin with the end in mind.
C. Share lesson objectives/ intended learning outcomes with students.
D. Lesson objectives/intended learning outcomes must integrate 2 or 3 domains – cognitive, skill and
affective or cognitive and affective or skill and affective.
RATIONALIZATION:
Developing and delivering lessons by teachers are integral in the teaching process. It is hence important
for teachers to ensure that the three (3) domains of learning which include cognitive (thinking), affective
(emotions or feeling) and Psychomotor (Physical or kinesthetic) to be achieved. It is imperative to
understand that there are different categories of learners who have varying needs and as such different
methods must be adopted in the planning and delivery of lessons to ensure that such needs are addressed
29. Teacher Dhelia’s lesson was on “what a man can do to arrest climate change.” She made the students do the
talking, arguing and synthesizing. The lecture was made after the students’ lively discussion. To what
approach did Teacher Dada use?
A. Subject-centered approach
B. Teacher-centered approach
C. Student-centered approach
D. School-centered approach
RATIONALIZATION:
Student-centered learning, also known as learner-centered education, broadly encompasses methods of
teaching that shift the focus of instruction from the teacher to the student. In original usage, student-
centered learning aims to develop learner autonomy and independence by putting responsibility for the
learning path in the hands of students by imparting them with skills and basis on how to learn a specific
subject and schemata required to measure up to the specific performance requirement. Student- centered
instruction focuses on skills and practices that enable lifelong learning and independent problem-solving.
Student-centered learning theory and practice are based on the constructivist learning theory that
emphasizes the learner's critical role in constructing meaning from new information and prior
experience.
30. Teacher Vel Marie said: “This is the rule on how to multiply fractions. To illustrate, let’s give examples.”
Then she gave fractions to the class for them to multiply. How did Teacher Vel Marie proceed?
A. Deductively
B. Inductively
C. Deductively then Inductively
D. Inductively then deductively
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is A. Teacher Vel Marie started her lesson on the rule (general) on how to multiply
fractions then proceed with giving examples (specific). Deductive approach involves the learners being
given a general rule, which is then applied to specific language examples and honed through practice
exercises. An inductive approach involves the learners detecting, or noticing, patterns and working out a
'rule' for themselves before they practice the language.
31. During problem solving method, the teacher’s primary role is .

A. Director
B. Lecturer
C. Clarifier
D. Judge
RATIONALIZATION:
In a Problem-Based Learning scenario the teacher's traditional role changes, and some teachers may
need some time to adjust. No longer is the teacher and text the source of all knowledge in the classroom.
During problem solving activities, the teacher acts as a clarifier especially when students are in doubt
how to go about the problem.
32. Which of the following provides open environment for discussing opinions without fear of being wrong or
ridiculed for an unpopular opinion?
A. Debate
B. Buzz Session
C. Symposium
D. Committee
RATIONALIZATION:
Buzz sessions are short participative sessions that are deliberately built into a lecture or larger group
exercise in order to stimulate discussion and provide student feedback. In such sessions, small sub-
groups of two to four persons spend a short period (generally no more than five minutes) intensively
discussing a topic or topics suggested by the teacher. Each sub-group then reports back on its
deliberations to the group as a whole, or sometimes combines with another sub-group in order to share
their findings and discuss the implications.
33. The school conducted a general student election for the Supreme Student Council. The election is patterned
after the COMELEC system. The school is using what kind of technique?
A. Symposium C. Panel discussion
B. Simulation D. Dramatization
RATIONALIZATION:
Simulation is an activity that simulates “almost real-life situation”. Other applications of simulation are
the following: simulated flight for aviation students, assigning student to be the mayor of the day.
34. Which of the following would be the best choice if a teacher would like to focus on attitudinal change?
A. Dramatization C. Role play
B. Field study D. Simulation
RATIONALIZATION:
Role playing allows the child to shows his own personal emotions and therefore is a good option when
focusing on attitudinal change.
35. Teacher Vanessa was assigned by her peer teacher to make a power point presentation to a large combined
class for the research paper of the drug use menace in school. The setting patterned that was adopted
effectively was .
A. Horseshoe pattern
B. Rectangular pattern
C. Circular pattern
D. Traditional pattern
RATIONALIZATION:
The traditional lecture setup typically consists of rows of fixed seating. It is ideal for large class
discussions. Students face the instructor with their backs to one another. This classroom seating
arrangement is historically common in colleges and universities, minimizing student-student
communication and largely supporting a “sage on the stage” learning environment. The highest
communication interactions between professors and students typically occurs with students in the first
row or along the middle of the classroom. Students in back rows are more likely to be less engaged.
36. This is my questioning behavior: I ask the question; I pause for a while then call on a student. Which is this
questioning practice?
A. Involving as many as possible
B. Asking non-directed question
C. Asking for non-volunteers
D. Directing a question
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is A. Pausing for a while after asking a question means that you are giving the
students “think time” and you are encouraging as many as possible to become involved in the activity.
37. Outside the acceptable and effective ways with dealing of the disciplines is/are
A. Verbal reinforces
B. Dialogue
C. Additional homework
D. Award merit
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is C. Additional homework is not an acceptable and effective way of dealing with
discipline problems.
38. Eye wink, waving of hands and nodding of head are examples of .
A. Gestures
B. Verbal communication
C. Body language
D. Facial expression
RATIONALIZATION:
A gesture is a movement performed by the body like waving the hands or nodding the head for example.
Body language on the other hand are the signals you communicate due to your posture and gestures. For
example, when people are uncomfortable they tend to cross their arms. Therefore, if you see someone
with their arms crossed you can say their body language shows that they are uncomfortable. In summary,
gestures are the movements themselves and body language is what they convey.
CHILD AND ADOLESCENT DEVELOPMENT
39. It is a type of play in which children watch alongside but not with each other.
A. Solitary Play
B. Onlooker Play
C. Parallel Play
D. Associative Play
RATIONALIZATION:
Onlooker play happens when the child watches others at play but does not engage in it. The child may
engage in forms of social interaction, such as conversation about the play, without actually joining in the
activity. This type of activity is also more common in younger children.
40. “Every Individual is a unique individual,” adheres to what principle:

A. We are born different C. Every person is unique
B. Individual Differences D. Each of us has uniqueness
RATIONALIZATION:
Many of a learner’s personal characteristics can affect how he or she learns. Individual differences are
often explanations for differences in learning and performance among learners. The study of individual
differences among learners’ permits is done with the idea that results can help educators design
instruction that better meets the needs of each learner’s needs.
41. Which statement about student diversity is CORRECT

A. Student diversity is solely due to students varied culture.
B. Teachers should value and accept diversity of students.
C. Teachers should not accept diversity of students.
D. The less diversity the better for the teacher and students.
RATIONALIZATION:
Having a diverse group of students simply means recognizing that all the people are unique in their own
way. Their differences could consist of their reading level, athletic ability, cultural background,
personality, religious beliefs, and the list goes on. There has always been diversity in the classroom, but in
today society it is important to embrace it and make positive use of it. Teachers should value diversity
and they need to model this attitude to their students. When people value diversity, they recognize and
respect the fact that people are different and that these differences is generally a good thing. For example,
when attempting to solve a problem, it is better to assemble a diverse team with many skills and many
different ways of approaching the problem than it is to assemble a team that has all their strength
concentrated in one area.
42. A student was raised by authoritative parents. What will be his attitude in school?
A. Quarrelsome
B. Distant
C. Inferior
D. Independent
RATIONALIZATION:
Kids raised by authoritative parents are more likely to become independent, self-reliant, socially
accepted, academically successful, and well-behaved. They are less likely to report depression and
anxiety, and less likely to engage in antisocial behavior like delinquency and drug use.
43. Along Erickson’s psychosocial theory, which statement is one of autonomy in early childhood?
A. As I do things I fell I made a mistake.
B. I do things without worrying about them.
C. I worry that my parents will find about them.
D. I am apologetic about what I’ve done.
RATIONALIZATION:
If you are a parent or if you have ever interacted with a child between the ages of 18 months and 3 years,
then you have probably witnessed many of the hallmarks of the autonomy versus shame and doubt stage.
According to Erikson, children at this stage are focused on developing a greater sense of self- control. It is
at this point in development that young children begin to express a greater need for independence and
control over themselves and the world around them. The major question to be answered in this stage is
"Can I do things myself or am I reliant on the help of others?"
FACILITATING LEARNING
44. How does a novice learner acquire information?

A. Meaningful information C. Important information
B. Selected information D. All of the information
RATIONALIZATION:
Novice learners are well-intentioned folks who are typically brimming with enthusiasm while lacking
actual knowledge about the subject being taught. They have limited or nonexistent experience with most
of their understanding of the subject based on basic rules. In problem solving, they are satisfied with just
scratching the surface and hurriedly gives a solution to the problem. They employ rigid strategies that
may not be appropriate to the task at hand, attempt to process all the information they receive, and do
not examine the quality of their work nor stop to make revisions.
45. Which level of knowledge is manifested when a learner is able to answer the question, "What was most
confusing to me about the material explored in class today?"
A. Factual knowledge
B. Conceptual knowledge
C. Procedural knowledge
D. Metacognitive knowledge
RATIONALIZATION:
In 1999, Dr. Lorin Anderson, a former learner of Bloom's, and his colleagues published an updated
version of Bloom’s Taxonomy that takes into account a broader range of factors that have an impact on
teaching and learning. This revised taxonomy attempts to correct some of the problems with the original
taxonomy. Unlike the 1956 version, the revised taxonomy differentiates between “knowing what,” the
content of thinking, and “knowing how,” the procedures used in solving problems.
The Knowledge Dimension is the “knowing what.” It has four categories: factual, conceptual, procedural,
and metacognitive. Factual knowledge includes isolated bits of information, such as vocabulary
definitions and knowledge about specific details. Conceptual knowledge consists of systems of
information, such as classifications and categories.
Procedural knowledge includes algorithms, heuristics or rules of thumb, techniques, and methods as well
as knowledge about when to use these procedures. Metacognitive knowledge refers to knowledge of
thinking processes and information about how to manipulate these processes effectively.
46. Who coined the term “scaffolding”?

A. Bruner B. Piaget C. Vygotsky D. Pavlov
RATIONALIZATION:
Instructional scaffolding, also known as “Vygotsky scaffolding” or just “scaffolding,” is a teaching method
that helps students learn more by working with a teacher or a more advanced student to achieve their
learning goals.
The theory behind instructional scaffolding is that, compared to learning independently, students learn
more when collaborating with others who have a wider range of skills and knowledge than the student
currently does. These instructors or peers are the “scaffolding” who help the student expand her learning
boundaries and learn more than she would be able to on her own.
Vygotsky scaffolding is part of the education concept “zone of proximal development” or ZPD. The ZPD is
the set of skills or knowledge a student can’t do on her own but can do with the help or guidance of
someone else. It’s the skill level just above where the student currently is.
47. One cognitive advancement in adolescence is metacognition. What does METACOGNITION mean? A.
Ability to identify one’s own thinking process and strategies
B. Ability to recall and explain
C. Ability to analyze and synthesize
D. Ability to problem solving
RATIONALIZATION:
Metacognition is "thinking about thinking" or "knowing about knowing" and is own ability to have an
awareness of our cognitive processes when we are learning. Paying attention to how you think and how
your thinking affects how you learn enhances both self-awareness and brainpower. This “thinking about
thinking” is called metacognition, and it’s a skill teacher can introduce to students at a very young age.
48. What kind of learning does this Cyril Houle's quotation, "If you teach a person what to learn, you are
preparing that person for the past, if you teach the person how to learn, you are preparing them for the
future" mean?
A. Metacognitive learning
B. Learning with audio-visual
C. Technology with learning
D. Learning with graphs
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is A. The phrase means that teaching the students “how to learn” is better than
teaching them “what to learn”. This pertains to metacognitive learning which include learners being
taught how to plan, monitor and evaluate their own learning.
ASSESSMENT OF LEARNING
49. Assessment of learning is an part of the teaching-learning process.

A. Enrichment
B. Auxiliary
C. Add on
D. Integral
RATIONALIZATION:
Assessment is an integral part of the teaching and learning process. Its purpose is to inform students
regarding their learning progress and teachers regarding ways to adjust the curriculum and instruction
to respond effectively to the learning needs of students. Further, it communicates to the school
community the progress of students in achieving the school’s expectations for student learning as well as
course-specific learning goals. Assessment results must be continually analyzed to improve curriculum
and instruction.
50. As an investigative tool, assessment can help discover various aspects of students learning but these does
not include
A. What students already know
B. what students can do
C. What students expect to learn
D. What learning gaps students have
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is C. The primary purpose of assessment is to improve students’ learning and
teachers’ teaching as both respond to the information it provides. Assessment for learning is an ongoing
process that arises out of the interaction between teaching and learning. It can do more than simply
diagnose and identify students’ learning needs; it can be used to assist improvements across the
education system in a cycle of continuous improvement.
Assessment can help measure what students already know and can do. It can also discover what learning
gaps or difficulties the students have. However, it is not the major puspose of assessment to determine
what the students expect to learn.
51. Identify the characteristic that can make assessment difficult to apply, and therefore should be avoided by
teachers.
A. Applying assessment contextually
B. Provide interactive feedback on student performance
C. Setting definite variables as in rubrics
D. Discussing abstract concepts
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is D. (A) Applying assessment contextually; (B) providing interactive feedback on
student performance; and (C) setting of definite variables e.g. rubrics are all ideal practices in assessment.
On the other, discussing abstract concepts will make assessment difficult to apply as they are also difficult
to measure and evaluate.
52. Compared with evaluation which is subjective, testing students is more objective because it is based on?
A. homework
B. quantifiable data
C. human judgment
D. class work
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is B. When defined within an educational setting, assessment, evaluation, and testing
are all used to measure how much of the assigned materials students are mastering, how well student are
learning the materials, and how well student are meeting the stated goals and objectives.
Here are some definitions:
 A test or quiz is used to examine someone's knowledge of something to determine what he or she
knows or has learned. Testing measures or quantifies the level of skill or knowledge that has been
reached.
 Evaluation is the process of making judgments based on criteria and evidence.
 Assessment is the process of documenting knowledge, skills, attitudes and beliefs, usually in
measurable terms. The goal of assessment is to make improvements, as opposed to simply being
judged. In an educational context, assessment is the process of describing, collecting, recording,
scoring, and interpreting information about learning.
53. The class was taught how to conduct an action research and was required an end-of-the-term written
research report. The class was taught how to do the research report and was shown as an Analytic Scoring
Rubric for them to know how they will be graded. The class took the Scoring Rubric as guide in the making
of their research report. They were all motivated to pass an excellent research report and as a group
checked now and then if they were true to the qualities of an excellent research report as seen in the
scoring rubric. What form of assessment is described?
A. Assessment AS Learning
B. Assessment FOR Learning
C. Assessment OF Learning
D. Assessment FOR and AS Learning
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is D. It involves assessment as learning because they were the ones who monitored
their own progress using a scoring rubric in conducting an action research.
54. Apart from a quantifiable data, what else can be used as basis for grading?
A. Acceptance criterion
B. Performance criterion
C. Values criterion
D. Criterion rubrics
RATIONALIZATION:
Performance Criteria are evaluative statements, which specify what is to be assessed and the required
level of performance. They detail the activities, skills, knowledge and understanding that provide
evidence of competent performance of each element.
55. For real-world application the teacher can apply .

A. Demonstration
B. Performance
C. Simulation
D. Drills
RATIONALIZATION:
In general, a performance-based assessment measures students' ability to apply the skills and knowledge
learned from a unit or units of study. Typically, the task challenges students to use their higher-order
thinking skills to create a product or complete a process (Chun, 2010). Performance-based assessments
share the key characteristic of accurately measuring one or more specific course standards. They are also
complex, authentic, process/product-oriented, open-ended, and time-bound.
56. These are the criteria to reduce error in judging test content, sampling and procedures for tests except
A. Reliability
B. Predictability
C. Validity
D. Usability
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is B. All criteria mentioned (reliability, validity and usability) except for
“predictability” can reduce error in judging test content, sampling and procedures for tests. Reliability
refers to the extent to which assessments are consistent. Validity refers to the accuracy of an assessment
-- whether or not it measures what it is supposed to measure. Usability is the method or process we use
to determine how easy something is to identify, comprehend, and ultimately use.
57. Teacher wants to evaluate the child writing performance at the beginning, middle and after school year.
Which type of portfolio should the teacher use?
A. Evaluation portfolio
B. Development portfolio
C. Showcase portfolio
D. Assessment portfolio
RATIONALIZATION:
A development portfolio is a collection of work over time showing growth and improvement. It shows
how the owner (has) developed and therefore demonstrates growth. This type of portfolio will often also
contain products from various stages of the process, stages in which feedback has been received, and
possibly also products from work still in progress.
58. Teacher Iah wants her pupils to display their work where each one has worked. What type of portfolio is
the Teacher Iah expecting to see?
A. Assessment
B. Development
C. Showcase
D. Evaluation
RATIONALIZATION:
Showcase portfolios are designed to display a learner's best quality of work. This might be to highlight
student success, or to showcase a variety of accomplishments a student has achieved over a period of
time. In showcasing a student’s work, this portfolio allows them to describe and tell their own story.
Designing this type of portfolio requires creativity and individuality.
59. Which rubric CANNOT provide specific feedback for improvement?

A. Analytic rubric C. Holistic
B. General analytic D. Developmental rubric
RATIONALIZATION:
Creating a holistic rubric takes less time than the others, and grading with one is faster, too. The main
disadvantage of a holistic rubric is that it doesn't provide targeted feedback to students, which means
they're unlikely to learn much from the assignment. Although many holistic rubrics list specific
characteristics for each level, the teacher gives only one score, without breaking it down into separate
qualities.
60. How is content validity best assessed in the assignment to illustrate the law of demand and supply? A.
Illustration of demand and supply flow
B. Diagram of demand and supply trend
C. Correct definitions of demand and supply
D. Instances showing demand supplying demand
RATIONALIZATION:
When you create a test or questionnaire for a particular subject, you want the questions to actually
measure what you want them to. For example, the AP Physics exam should cover all topics actually taught
to students and not unrelated material like English or biology. This matching between test questions and
the content the questions are supposed to measure is called content validity. If some of the test questions
are measuring something else, this can create bias.
61. How can you get a mean of 86 if the total grade of 4 subjects is 85?
A. 83
B. 90
C. 84
D. 85
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is B, 90. If we use 83, 84 and 85 as the grade for the fifth subject, the mean will be
lower than 86. If we use 90 as the grade for the fifth subject, the mean would be equal to 86.
62. Using the standardized test, a school can determine in order to give final grades or certification.
A. End-of-school year achievement
B. Degree of mastery
C. Remedial measures for improvement
D. Long serious problem
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is A. A standardized test is a test that is administered and scored in a consistent, or
"standard", manner. Standardized tests are designed in such a way that the questions, conditions for
administering, scoring procedures, and interpretations are consistent and are administered and scored in
a predetermined, standard manner. In the given question, it was mentioned that the use of standardized
test is to give final grades or certification which means that the closest answer is A, end- of-school
achievement.
63. Which is negatively skewed distribution?

A. More students are underachiever
B. Even from left to right
C. More got low score
D. More got high score
RATIONALIZATION:
A distribution is negatively skewed, or skewed to the left, if the scores fall toward the higher side of the
scale and there are very few low scores. In positively skewed distributions, the mean is usually greater
than the median, which is always greater than the mode.
64. In conducting item analysis, teacher Hazel found out that more on the lower group got item No. 6 correctly.
This means that the item .
A. Has lower validity
B. Is highly reliable
C. Has a positive discriminating power
D. Has a negative discriminating power
RATIONALIZATION:
A negative item discrimination means a higher proportion of people from lower group chose the answer.
This would be expected for an incorrect answer. A negative discrimination on a correct answer may
indicate something is wrong, as the 'good' students are not choosing the correct answer.
65. What does achievement test measure in previous learning?

A. Teaching coverage
B. Attitude and aptitude
C. Motivational level D.
Quality and quantity
RATIONALIZATION:
An achievement test is a test of developed skill or knowledge. It evaluates the information or skills a
student has already learned. This is the sort of testing most students will be familiar with. Instructors use
achievement tests to determine whether or not information was successfully learned and retained. The
most common type of achievement test is a standardized test developed to measure skills and knowledge
learned in a given grade level, usually through planned instruction, such as training or classroom
instruction.
66. Teacher wants to test student’s acquisition of declarative knowledge. Which test is the most appropriate?
A. Short answer
B. Essay
C. Performance test
D. Completion test
RATIONALIZATION:
Declarative Knowledge refers to facts or information stored in the memory, that is considered static in
nature. Declarative Knowledge, also referred to as conceptual, propositional or descriptive knowledge,
describes things, events, or processes, their attributes, and their relation to each other.
Short-answer questions are questions that require students to create an answer. They are commonly
used in examinations to assess the basic knowledge and understanding (low cognitive levels) of a topic
before more in-depth assessment questions are asked on the topic.
67. Which type of test measures students thinking organizing and written communication skills?
A. Short answer
B. Completion type
C. Essay
D. Extemporaneous speech
RATIONALIZATION:
Essay test is a test that requires the student to compose responses, usually lengthy up to several
paragraphs. It can be used to measure higher level thinking skills such as analysis, synthesis, evaluation,
and creativity. It assesses the ability to recall, organize, and integrate ideas, to express oneself in writing,
and to supply information.
68. Which test measure is basic to select and connect ideas?

A. Multiple choice
B. Matching type
C. Mapping
D. Outlining
RATIONALIZATION:
Concept maps, or mind maps are powerful graphic organizers that can be used in so many ways to
illustrate and explore connections. Creating a Concept Map provides students and teachers with an
opportunity to construct and share their understanding of a topic, theme, concept, area of interest – they
can even be used by teachers as a format for planning units or lessons of instruction. Mind mapping, or
concept mapping, can help students illustrate the connections between their ideas, concepts or content in
meaningful ways.
EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGY
69. Which characteristics are necessary to be able to adapt to current demands of teaching using digital tools?
I. Openness to learn
II. Positive attitude
III. Curiosity
IV. Perseverance
A. I only
B. I and II
C. II and IV
D. I, II, III and IV
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is D. All the characteristics mentioned above are necessary for a teacher to be able to
adapt the use of digital tools.
70. The more senses that are involved, the better the learning. What does this imply?
A. Use visual aids.
B. Use audio aids.
C. Use audio-visual aids. D.
Use multi-sensory aids.
RATIONALIZATION:
The more senses that are involved in learning, the more and the better the learning. What is seen and
heard more than what are just seen and just are heard. One research findings confirm this: “Humans are
intensively visual animal. The eyes contain nearly 70 percent of the body’s receptors and send millions of
signals along the optic nerves to the visual processing centers of the brain. We take in more information
visually than through any of the other senses” (Wolfe, 2001). This implies the use of a teaching strategies
that makes use of more visual aids than mere audio aids.
71. Teacher B wants to make use of simulated life condition suitable for animals and plants living on land.
Which does she use?
A. Terrarium
B. Model
C. Aquarium
D. Poster
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is A. Terrarium, also called glass garden, wardian case, or vivarium, enclosure with
glass sides, and sometimes a glass top, arranged for keeping plants or terrestrial or semi-terrestrial
animals indoors. The purpose may be decoration, scientific observation, or plant or animal propagation.
72. What material is best to use if intended material is not available?

A. Supplementary material
B. Audio-visual material
C. Improvised material
D. Digital material
RATIONALIZATION:
Oyediran (2010) defines improvisation as the art of using materials or equipment obtained from local
environment or produced by the teacher, and with the assistance of the local personnel to enhance
instruction. In other to teach by inquiry method or use activity based instructions, improvisation is
required since instructional materials seem not to be adequate (Okebukola, 2002). Bassey (2002) defined
improvisation as the process of making equipment and materials by the students or by engaging the
services of others in the absence of real or manufactured ones. Generally, improvisation of instructional
materials is an attempt to adapt and make use of local resources in the teaching/learning process when
the ready-made materials are not available or are in shortfall or not within the reach of users. The
teacher and the students could produce the improvised instructional materials.
73. Which social service is available in the computer?
A. Google B.
Facebook
C. I-pad
D. Wikipedia
RATIONALIZATION:
Facebook is a social networking site that makes it easy for you to connect and share with family and
friends online. Originally designed for college students, Facebook was created in 2004 by Mark
Zuckerberg while he was enrolled at Harvard University. By 2006, anyone over the age of 13 with a valid
email address could join Facebook. Today, Facebook is the world's largest social network, with more than
1 billion users worldwide.

B. Looks into the characteristics and interests of the learners in order to choose activities that would
match them
C. Learn how to scan picture to include in her presentation
D. Researches further on plasma as another state of matter
RATIONALIZATION:
 Content knowledge (CK) – is teachers’ knowledge about the subject matter to be learned or taught.
The content to be covered in middle school science or history is different from the content to be
covered in an undergraduate course on art appreciation or a graduate seminar on astrophysics.
Knowledge of content is of critical importance for teachers. As Shulman (1986) noted, this
knowledge would include knowledge of concepts, theories, ideas, organizational frameworks,
knowledge of evidence and proof, as well as established practices and approaches toward
developing such knowledge.
 Pedagogical knowledge (PK) – is teachers’ deep knowledge about the processes and practices or
methods of teaching and learning. They encompass, among other things, overall educational
purposes, values, and aims. This generic form of knowledge applies to understanding how students
learn, general classroom management skills, lesson planning, and student assessment. It includes
knowledge about techniques or methods used in the classroom; the nature of the target audience;
and strategies for evaluating student understanding.
 Technological knowledge (TK) is a person’s understanding of the function and operation of
currently available technology and applications on that technology, for example, an understanding
of how to operate a tablet, download an app, and share a screenshot of something made in that app.
77. MOOCs are considered massive because .

A. They can only be provided by big universities.
B. They were designed and created by a big group of experts.
C. They need a big amount of computer storage to be able to avail of a course. D.
They can accommodate a big number of learners.
RATIONALIZATION:
Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) is considered “massive” because it allows access to a very large
number of students, much larger than a face-to-face class, or a traditional online course. In addition, the
course should be prepared to accept changes in the number of students in several orders of magnitude,
for example, going from 1,000 to 100,000 students, without a major problem for operation.
78. Mr. Oliver is evaluating a website for his Literature class. He is making sure that factual pieces of
information found on the site are well documented and pictures and diagrams are properly labeled. He is
also checking that there are no misspelled words nor grammar errors. Which criterion is focusing on?
A. Clarity

D. Motivation
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is C. Accuracy is to be ensuring that the information is correct and without any
mistake.
DEVELOPMENTAL READING
79. What is the special program given to the students who can’t read? A.
Reading program
B. Phonic program
C. Literary program
D. Language program
RATIONALIZATION:
An effective reading program develops reading competence in all students and is based on proven
practices. A core reading program is the primary instructional tool that teachers use to teach children to
learn to read and ensure they reach reading levels that meet or exceed grade-level standards. A core
program should address the instructional needs of the majority of students in a respective school or
district.
80. Which of these does NOT belong to the external factors that affect reading point of reference?
A. Parents
B. Peers
C. Financial reward
D. Enjoyment of reading
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is D. Parents, peers and financial reward are external factors that can affect reading a
learner’s reading ability. Enjoyment of reading is a factor than occurs within the learner.

TEACHING PROFESSION
82. How can you consider a person professional?

A. Graduate of degree/University
B. Having ethical competence
C. Abide by his personal code of ethics
D. Skilled
RATIONALIZATION:
The following are the nine elements of professionalism.
1. Initial Professional Education – Professionals generally begin their professional lives by completing a
university program in their chosen fields – law school, medical school, engineering school, and so on.
2. Accreditation – University programs are accredited by oversight bodies that determine whether the
programs provide adequate education. Accreditation assures that graduates from accredited
programs start their professional lives with the knowledge they need to perform effectively. The
Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) oversees engineering programs.
3. Skills Development – For most professions, education alone is not sufficient to develop full
professional capabilities. Nascent professionals need practice applying their knowledge before they
are prepared to take primary responsibility for performing work in their fields. Physicians have a
three-year residency. Certified public accountants (CPAs) must work one year for a board- approved
organization before receiving their licenses. Professional engineers must have at least four years of
work experience. Requiring some kind of apprenticeship assures that people who enter a profession
have practive performing work at a satisfactory level of competence.
4. Certification – After completion of education and skills development, a professional is required to
pass one or more exams that assure the person has attained a minimum level of knowledge. Doctors
take board exams. Accountants take CPA exams. Professional engineers take a Fundamentals of
Engineering exam at college graduation time and then take an engineering specialty exam about four
years later. Some professions require recertification from time to time.
5. Licensing – Licensing is similar to certification except that it is mandatory instead of voluntary and is
administered by a governmental authority. [Only licensed professionals can be found guilty of
malpractice but following generally accepted practices of your profession can be a defense against
accusations of malpractice. Non-licensed workers are rarely sued for poor work, except in extreme
cases of neglect or intent to harm; usually the company employing the worker is sued if its workers
produce defective products. Dissatisfied customers can sue the licensed professional AS AN
INDIVIDUAL, in addition to suing their employer. Along with licensing comes malpractice insurance,
to allow the licensed professional to practice his or her craft without fear of personal bankruptcy.
6. Professional Development – Many professions are required to keep their professional education
current. Ongoing professional education maintains or improves workers’ knowledge and skills after
they begin professional practice. Professional development requirements tend to be strongest in
professions where a body of technical knowledge is rapidly changing. Medicine is perhaps the most
notable because of the constant improvements in drugs, therapies, medical equipment, and diagnosis
and treatment procedures. After a professional’s initial education and skills development are
complete, this additional education requirement helps to assure a minimum competency throughout
the professional’s career.
7. Professional Societies – Professionals see themselves as part of a community of like-minded
individuals who put their professional standards above the individual self-interest or their
employer’s self-interest. When a professional society is just beginning, it usually promotes the
exchange of knowledge, and over time its function evolves to include defining certification criteria,
managing certification programs, establishing accreditation standards, and defining a code of ethics
and disciplinary action for violations of that code.
8. Code of Ethics – Each profession has a code of ethics to ensure that its practitioners behave
responsibly. The code states not just what its practitioners actually do but what they should do.
Professionals can be ejected from their professional societies or lose their licenses to practice for
violating the code of ethics. Adherence to a recognized code of conduct helps professionals feel they
belong to a well-regarded community, and enforcement of ethics standards helps maintain a
minimum level of conduct.
9. Organizational Certification – In many professions, not only must individuals be certified, their
organizations must be certified. Accounting firms are peer reviewed. Hospitals are accredited, as are
universities. For fields as complex as accounting, education, and medicine, organizational certification
is a response to the reality that individual competence is not sufficient to guarantee adequate levels of
professional service; organizational characteristics can have as much influence as individuals’
characteristics.
83. Based on elements of the profession, can the taxi driver be considered a professional? A.
No, because a driving is not a college/university degree.
B. Yes, because there's such a term professional driver.
C. It depends on the technical and ethical competence of the taxi driver.
D. Yes, if the taxi driver is competent and honest.
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is letter A. A professional is defined as one who earns one’s living from specified
professional activity. A professional is one who had obtained the standards of education and training
necessary in performing one’s specific role within the chosen profession. Professions are subject to strict
code of conduct, which magnifies one’s ethical and moral obligations. Professional standards of practice
and ethics of a particular field are agreed upon by widely recognized professional association. The
Professional Regulation Commission and the Supreme Court are the official organizations mandated by
the Philippine government to regulate the practice of various professionals. A taxi driver, though, may be
skillful in driving—however, did not attend formal education to acquire such skills necessary. In addition,
a taxi driver is granted a professional driver’s license by the Land Transportation Office not by the
Professional Regulation Commission nor the Supreme Court.
84. What is the nursery of the states?

A. Home
B. School
C. Hospital
D. Convents
RATIONALIZATION:
The schools are the nurseries of the future citizens of the state; each teacher is a trustee of the cultural
and educational heritage of the nation and is under obligation to transmit to learners such heritage as
well as to elevate national morality, promote national pride, cultivate love of country, instill allegiance to
the constitution and for all duly constituted authorities, and promote obedience to the laws of the state.
(Article II: The Teacher and the State - Section 1, Code of Ethics for Professional Teachers)
85. Mrs. Soriano was approached by a parent who had a concern about the grade received by her daughter,
Judy, comparing it with the grade of Sally her classmate. Which of these should Mrs. Soriano do?
A. Refuse to show the record notebook since it is her personal property.
B. Show both the record of Judy and her classmate Sally.
C. Refuse to show any record without the written approval of the principal.
D. Show only the record of her daughter Judy.
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is D. Judy’s parents have the right to access the official records of their daughter, but
they are not allowed to be given access to the grades of Sally. Mrs. Soriano must make it sure that Sally’s
record is confidential. It can only be accessed by Sally and her parents.
86. What is the proof that Professional Teachers demonstrate genuine desire for CPD?
A. Do as it is mandated
B. Go through it because everyone else does
C. Go through it for promotion
D. Do it even if it is not required
RATIONALE:
Teachers who show genuine desire for CPD do it even if it is not required. CPD stands for Continuing
Professional Development. It refers to the process of tracking and documenting the skills, knowledge and
experience that you gain both formally and informally as you work, beyond any initial training.
Continuing professional development (CPD) is accepted as an integral part of teacher education because
only a continuing learning and training assures a high level of expertise and enables the teachers to keep
their professional skills and knowledge up-to-date.
87. Which promotes a healthy environment among schools?

I. Canteen selling all kinds of food including junk food
II. Comfort rooms are the same for boys and girls
III. Sanitary drinking fountain
IV. Safe playground
A. III and IV
B. II and III
C. I only
D. I and IV
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is A. A healthy school environment is one which has sanitary drinking fountains and
safe playground for the pupils. The physical environment of school buildings and school grounds is a key
factor in the overall health and safety of students, staff, and visitors. School buildings and grounds must
be designed and maintained to be free of health and safety hazards, and to promote learning. Studies
have shown that student achievement can be affected either positively or negatively by the school
environment. Policies and protocols must be in place to ensure food protection, sanitation, safe water
supply, healthy air quality, good lighting, safe playgrounds, violence prevention, and emergency response,
among other issues that relate to the physical environment of schools.
88. How are institutions of learning encouraged to set higher standards over and above the minimum
requirement for state recognition?
A. Scholastic achievement
B. Faculty development
C. Academic Freedom
D. Voluntary Accreditation
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is letter D. Voluntary accreditation is a process by which institutions or programs
continuously upgrade their educational quality and services through self-evaluation and judgment of
peers. A status is then granted to an educational institution or program which meets commonly accepted
standards of quality or excellence.
89. Which environment provides connecting schools where there’s respect, support and communication
progress?
A. Healthy environment
B. Positive environment
C. Secure environment
D. Safe environment
RATIONALIZATION:
An environment where students do not feel accepted or respected is a distraction from learning. A
positive learning environment means that a student feels comfortable, has a sense of rapport with their
teacher and peers, and believes they can be successful (Elizabeth F. Barkley, 2010. Student Engagement
Techniques) According to Barkley (2010), a positive learning leads to endorphins in the blood which in
turn gives feelings of euphoria and stimulates the frontal lobe. Essentially, learning becomes a
pleasurable experience rather than of one where the student fights or flees.
90. Which instructional activities may serve to reflect the teacher’s philosophy of teaching?
I. Setting of learning outcomes
II. Choice of teaching methods
III. Engaging in routine activities
A. II and III
B. I and III
C. I only
D. I and II
RATIONALIZATION:
The learning outcomes/objectives, approaches, strategies, methods and techniques of teaching and
learning activities and even instructional materials being employed by the teacher all serve to reflect
his/her philosophy of teaching. It does not include routine activities.
91. If you are afraid to be different from the rest even if you are convinced that you are right makes you far
from being a/an
A. Existentialist
B. Utilitarianist
C. Pragmatist
D. Rationalist
RATIONALIZATION:
Existentialism is a philosophy that emphasizes individual existence, freedom and choice. It is the view
that humans define their own meaning in life and try to make rational decisions despite existing in an
irrational universe. Being afraid to make the right decisions, as mentioned makes an individual far from
being an existentialist.
CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT
92. Which of the following processes usually comes first in developing curriculum?
A. Evaluating educational experiences
B. Identifying learning goals and objectives
C. Selection of educational content
D. Organization of learning experiences
RATIONALIZATION:
The first and the most important step in developing a curriculum is to identify the learning goals and
objectives. The objectives will be the basis of the entire curriculum along with the teaching strategies and
methods, activities and assessment tools that need to be employed.
93. When a school believes that curriculum should highly focus on Math, Science and other fundamental
intellectual disciplines, this school believes in the curriculum view of .
A. Arthur Bestor C. Phillip Phenix
B. John Dewey D. Hollins Caswell
RATIONALIZATION:
The Advocates of Curriculum
The following theorists are the advocates of the curriculum concept. Their perspectives helped shape
current understanding of how curriculum is used in meeting educational goals.
 Robert M. Hutchins – Hutchins believes that college education must be grounded on liberal
education while basic education should emphasize the rules of grammar, reading, rhetoric, logic
and mathematics. For him, curriculum is viewed as permanent studies which explain why some
subjects are repeated from elementary to college, such as grammar, reading, and mathematics.
 Arthur Bestor – Bestor is an essentialist who believes that the mission of the school is to train the
intellectual capacity of learners. Hence, subjects to be offered are grammar, literature, writing,
mathematics, science, history and foreign language.
 Joseph Schwab – Schwab views that discipline is the sole source of curriculum, and so, the
curriculum is divided into chunks of knowledge which are called subject areas like English,
mathematics, social studies, science, humanities, languages, and others. As a leading curriculum
theorist, Schwab used the term discipline as the ruling doctrine for curriculum development.
Therefore, curriculum is viewed as a field of study and it should only consist of knowledge that
comes from the disciplines; for example, linguistics, economics, chemistry, among others.
94. Once the grading period is done and all grades are recorded to whom the teacher will present the grades?
A. Principal C. Parent
B. Registrar D. Students
RATIONALE:
Classroom assessment serves to help teachers and parents understand the learners’ progress on
curriculum standards. The results of assessment are reported to the child, the child’s remedial teacher, if
any, and the teacher of the next grade level, as well as to the child’s parents or guardians.
95. Implementation means putting into practice the experiences which has been written in all except
.
A. Syllabi
B. Curriculum guides
C. Course outline
D. Internet resource sites
RATIONALIZATION:
Written Curriculum includes the documents, course of study, or syllabi handed down to the schools,
districts, division, departments, or colleges for implementation. Internet resource sites is not under
written curriculum.
96. The teacher published the following researches, books, materials, manuals and other instructional aid:
A. Planner
B. Writer
C. Innovator
D. Evaluator
RATIONALE:
The correct answer is B, writer. A curriculum writer basically “writes” the curriculum. A classroom
teacher takes record of knowledge concepts, subject matter or content. These need to be written or
preserved. The teacher writes books, modules, laboratory manuals, instructional guides, and reference
materials in paper or electronic media. writer
97. In K to 12, how is the final grade per subject for grades 11 and 12 obtained?
A. Get the average of the grades of all subjects for the 4 semesters B.
Get the average of the grades of all subjects for the 2 semesters
C. Get the average of the grades for the 2 quarters
D. Get the average of the grades for the 4 quarters
RATIONALIZATION:
The K to 12 Basic Education Program uses a standard- and competency-based grading system. Learners
from Grades 11 to 12 are graded on Written Work, Performance Tasks, and Quarterly Assessment every
quarter. These three are given specific percentage weights that vary according to the nature of the
learning area. For Grades 11 and 12, the two quarters determine the Final Grade in a semester.
 The Numerical System of marking is used. Grades are expressed in multiples of one (1).
 Cellar and ceiling grades are 70% and 100% respectively. The passing mark in any given subject is
75%.
 The final conduct grade is the average of all conduct grades from the two quarters for each
semester.
 The final grade is the average of the quarterly grades for each learning area.
 The general average is the average of all the final grades of the different learning areas. All learning
areas have equal weight.
98. A student got a numerical grade of 80. What is his descriptor for his level of proficiency?
A. Very satisfactory
B. Fairly satisfactory
C. Satisfactory
D. Did not meet expectation
RATIONALIZATION:

99. In K-12, does quarterly assessment have equal percentage weight for all tracks in Grade 11 and 12? A.
No
B. No for academic track subjects
C. Yes
D. Yes for academic track subjects
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is A. There are different percentage weights in the quarterly assessment of the
different tracks in Senior High School (Grades 11 & 12). Refer to the table below.
100. The introduction of mother tongue as a subject and as a language of instruction is in support of
.
I. The preservation and promotion of Filipino cultural heritage
II. The learning of English as second language
III. To improve learners’ performance
A. I, II and III
B. II and III
C. I and II
D. I and III
RATIONALIZATION:
In the Philippines, the Department of Education designed the two-track method to be used for the
effective implementation of the MTB-MLE, that is the primer track to focus on accuracy and the story
track to focus on meaning. Learning via the two-track method to gain proficiency in literacy as well as
comprehend academic content and gain curriculum mastery, creative and critical thinking skills for
decisive decision-making. The MTB-MLE provides the following educational components relevant to
the implementation of the K to 12 Curriculum: (K to 12 Curriculum Guide, Department of Education)
1. Literacy – We only learn to read once. Learning to read in the L1 develops skills that transfer to
reading any other languages. Comprehension in reading other languages only occurs after oral
proficiency has developed such that vocabulary of the written L2 text is already part of the learners’
spoken vocabulary.
2. Prior knowledge – Engaging learners in a discussion of what is already familiar to them using the
home language and culture enables better learning of the curriculum through integration and
application of that knowledge into current knowledge schemes.
3. Cognitive development and higher order thinking skills (HOTS – Using the learners’ mother tongue
provides a strong foundation by developing cognitive skills and comprehension of the academic
content from day one. The knowledge, skills, attitudes, and values gained through the mother
tongue better support learning of other languages and learning through other languages later. As
learners articulate their thoughts and expand ideas, both language and critical thinking are
strengthened. MTB-MLE cultivates critical thinking through talking about ideas in the familiar
language. When teaching only in the L2, critical thinking is postponed until L2 is sufficiently
developed to support such analysis.
4. Strong Bridge – MTB-MLE provides a good bridge to listening, speaking, reading, and writing the L2s
(L2, L3) of the classroom using sound educational principles for building fluency and confidence in
using the other languages for lifelong learning. Reading in the L2 is only introduced after basic L1
reading fluency and L2 oral proficiency are developed. Comprehension in reading the L2 occurs
after the development of that spoken L2. Once sufficient oral and written proficiency in the
L2 are developed, a gradual transition to using the L2 as medium of instruction can progress
without the L1 support.
5. Scaffolding – In L2 teaching, the L1 is used to support learning when the L2 is not sufficiently
developed to be used alone. The L1 is used for expression and the teacher facilitates the
development of the L2 to enable learners to adequately express ideas in the L2. In this way,
the L1 strengthens the learning of the L2 by supporting the L2 development for communication. 6.
Teaching for meaning and accuracy. Decoding text requires accuracy, while comprehending texts
requires decoding skills within a meaningful context. Both meaning and accuracy are important,
but in classrooms that teach only L2, there is often primary focus on accuracy until the L2 is
sufficiently learned. This delays actual meaningful learning until the L2 can support that learning.
Apart from helping the students learn English as their second language and improving their performance,
mother tongue is also in support of the preservation of the Filipino cultural heritage. To preserve our
linguistic and cultural diversity, we must encourage the use of mother-tongue as much as possible. We
should always practice, speak and teach our new generation to speak and communicate with each other
in their mother-tongue.

III. Continuing professional development
IV. Adhere to a code of ethics for the professional group
A. I, II and IV
B. I, II and III
C. I, III and IV
D. II, III and IV
RATIONALIZATION:
The following are the nine elements of professionalism.
1. Initial Professional Education – Professionals generally begin their professional lives by completing a

2. Which of the following is true of the teaching profession?
A. Noblest profession
B. Highest paid profession
C. Most lucrative profession
D. Highest level of public service
RATIONALIZATION:
Teaching is the noblest among all the professions since all professionals underwent education with a
teacher. It’s also a process to prepare the next generation of skilled professionals and workers like
politician, engineers, doctors, policemen, priests, educators, legislators and good citizens. Teaching,
therefore, is considered as a means for which God uses a teacher as an instrument to touch lives.
3. Who among these graduates is not qualified to take the Licensure Examination for Teacher (LET)?

 Singapore - With such a high-quality economy, the cost of living is the most expensive in the region.
A small city apartment costs as much as $2,300 per month and a monthly transportation pass runs
around $75. For teachers, this also means a much higher monthly salary than what is available in
other ASEAN nations, with experienced teachers making as much as $4,000 per month. In effect,
those looking for teaching jobs in Singapore will find a higher level of both required qualifications
and job competition.
10. According to the global teacher status index, from what country could have the teachers the greatest
respect from students?
A. China
B. Finland

situations, under varying conditions, and with a wide diversity of groups and individuals. Therefore,
quality teacher preparation is required to produce quality teachers that have content knowledge and
know how to teach that knowledge to young learners.
12. What is the highest career stage of a teacher in the PPST? A.

Distinguished
B. Proficient
C. Highly proficient
D. Most proficient
RATIOANALIZATION:
The description of standards (i.e., in PPST, the indicators) at different career stages provides a
“framework for the teacher development continuum.” (OECD, 2005). Anchored on the principle of lifelong
learning, the PPST recognizes the significance of a standards framework that articulates developmental
progression as teachers develop, refine their practice and respond to the complexities of educational
reforms. The following are the career stages
 Beginning Teachers (Career Stage 1) are those who have gained the qualifications recognized for
entry into the teaching profession. Teachers at this stage are supported to reach Career Stage 2
within two to three years.
 Proficient Teachers (Career Stage 2) are professionally independent in the application of skills vital
to the teaching and learning process. This stage shows the acceptable standards for all teachers,
which should be reached within the first two or three years of teaching.
 Highly Proficient Teachers (Career Stage 3) consistently display a high level of performance in their
teaching practice. They are accomplished practitioners who mentor and work collegially with other
staff. This is the stage that Master Teachers are expected to be at.
 Distinguished Teachers (Career Stage 4) embody the highest standards for teaching grounded in
global best practice. They are recognized as leaders in education, contributors to the profession and
initiators of collaborations and partnerships.

standards, the outcome/s should be in accordance with which level in the Philippine Qualifications
Framework?
A. Level 4 C. Level 6
B. Level 5 D. Level 8
RATIONALIZATION:
The Philippine education system covers both formal and non-formal education. Formal education is a
progression of academic schooling from elementary (grade school) to secondary (high school) and
tertiary levels (TVET and higher education).
The system is tri-focalized by law into basic, technical-vocational and higher education under three
different agencies: the Department of Education (DepED) headed by a Cabinet Secretary for basic
education; the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) headed by a Director
General for technical-vocational education and training; and the Commission on Higher Education
(CHED) under the Office of the Philippine President headed by the Chairperson of a collegial body of five
Commissioners.
It describes the levels of educational qualifications and sets the standards for qualification outcomes. As
defined in RA 10968, qualification refers to a formal certification that a person has successfully achieved
specific learning outcomes relevant to the identified academic, industry or community requirements.

sympathetic attitude, therefore, refrain from disparaging the community.”
17. Which is an exemption in the code of ethics of teachers?

A. Principal
B. Librarian
C. Division Office Superintendent
D. Master Teacher
RATIONALE:
“The Code of Ethics for Professional Teachers covers all public and private school teachers in all
educational institutions at the preschool, primary, elementary, and secondary levels whether academic,
vocational, special, technical, or non-formal. The term “teacher” shall include industrial arts or vocational
teachers and all other persons performing supervisory and/or administrative functions in all schools at
the aforesaid levels, whether on full-time or part-time basis.” – Article 1. Librarians are not included in
the term “teachers.” Hence, they are not covered by the Code of Ethics for Professional Teachers.
Librarians have their own set of ethical standards called “Code of Ethics for Philippine Librarians”.

Learning system parallel to the formal system
B. Lower than the formal system
C. More practical than the formal system
D. Excludes informal learning system
RATIONALIZATION:
The Alternative Learning System is a parallel learning system in the Philippines that provides a practical
option to the existing formal instruction. When one does not have or cannot access formal education in
schools, ALS is an alternate or substitute. ALS includes both the non-formal and informal sources of
knowledge and skills.
Unlike the Formal Education system which is classroom-based and managed by trained formal school
teachers, ALS Non-formal Education happens outside the classroom, community-based, usually
conducted at community learning centers, barangay multi-purpose hall, libraries or at home, managed by
ALS learning facilitators, such as mobile teachers, district ALS Coordinators, instructional managers at an
agreed schedule and venue between the learners and facilitators.
20. According to PRC Revised Guidelines for Continuing Professional Development (Resolution No. 2013774,
every professional teacher is required proof of continuing professional development units for renewal
of professional identification card every three years.
A. 36 B.30 C. 45 D. 48
RATIONALIZATION:
Through the CPD Act of 2016, Professional Teachers were required to gain 45 CPD units for the renewal
of their professional identification card (PIC).
However, new Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR) of the Republic Act 10912 or the Continuing
Professional Development Law of 2016 took effect on March 1, 2019 due to the numerous complaints
from professionals. The document from the Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) was signed by
Chairman Teofilo Pilando Jr., Commissioner Yolanda D. Reyes and Commissioner Jose Y. Cueto Jr. It was
published on February 13 at the Official Gazette and took effect 15 days after.
Under the new provisions, CPD is still a mandatory requirement for the renewal of the PRC ID of all
registered and licensed professionals. Significant decrease in the number of required CPD units for the
renewal of professional license. From 45 units, it’s now down to 15 units every three years. In-house
trainings and capacity-building activities of government agencies and corporations, including local
government units and private employers shall be credited and considered as CPD compliance.
A transition period will be implemented while the PRC is working with CPD councils to fulfill the “pre-
conditions” required from them.
The following will be observed during the transition period:

 Professionals working abroad shall not be covered by the CPD requirement during the period of
their employment abroad
 Newly licensed professionals shall be exempted from CPD requirements for their first renewal
 CPD councils shall reduce the required CPD units to a minimum which shall not be more than 15
CPD units
 All seminars attended by licensed professionals should be recognized as CPD units and shall be
accepted as valid for the renewal of their licenses
Professionals who renewed their PRC ID's by signing an Undertaking shall only comply the required 15
CPD units, in pursuant to the Resolution.
21. When the teacher is convinced that it is better to teach the students the skill to adapt to change since
change is the only thing permanent in this world, he/she subscribe to which philosophy?
A. Existentialism
B. Pragmatism
C. Idealism
D. Realism
RATIONALIZATION:
For pragmatists, only those things that are experienced or observed are real. In this late 19th century
American philosophy, the focus is on the reality of experience. Unlike the Realists and Rationalists,
Pragmatists believe that reality is constantly changing and that we learn best through applying our
experiences and thoughts to problems, as they arise. The universe is dynamic and evolving, a "becoming"
view of the world. There is no absolute and unchanging truth, but rather, truth is what works.
Pragmatism is derived from the teaching of Charles Sanders Peirce (1839-1914), who believed that
thought must produce action, rather than linger in the mind and lead to indecisiveness.
John Dewey (1859-1952) applied pragmatist philosophy in his progressive approaches. He believed that
learners must adapt to each other and to their environment. Schools should emphasize the subject matter
of social experience. All learning is dependent on the context of place, time, and circumstance. Different
cultural and ethnic groups learn to work cooperatively and contribute to a democratic society. The
ultimate purpose is the creation of a new social order. Character development is based on making group
decisions in light of consequences.
For Pragmatists, teaching methods focus on hands-on problem solving, experimenting, and projects, often
having students work in groups. Curriculum should bring the disciplines together to focus on solving
problems in an interdisciplinary way. Rather than passing down organized bodies of knowledge to new
learners, Pragmatists believe that learners should apply their knowledge to real situations through
experimental inquiry. This prepares students for citizenship, daily living, and future careers.
22. Which of the following is the focus of the Japanese education in the Philippines?
A. Democratic ideals and nationalism
B. Love and service to one’s country
C. Religion and love for Asian brothers
D. Vocational and health education

stop the Filipino people from using the English Language.
CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT
23. Which of the following processes usually comes first in developing curriculum?
A. Evaluating educational experiences
B. Identifying learning goals and objectives
C. Selection of educational content
D. Organization of learning experiences
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is B. The first and most important part in the curriculum development process is the
identification of learning goals, objectives and outcomes. It will be the basis of the entire educative
process.
24. When do we need to evaluate the curriculum?

A. When somebody suggests it
B. Whenever necessary
C. Every academic year
D. Every quarter
RATIONALIZATION:
The best answer is B, whenever necessary. Evaluation is the process of collecting data on a program to
determine its value or worth with the aim of deciding whether to adopt, reject, or revise the program. The
developer or planner wants to know how to improve the curriculum product. The public wants to know
whether the curriculum implemented has achieved its aims and objectives Teachers want to know
whether what they are doing in the classroom is effective. Curriculum evaluation should be concerned
with assessing the value of a program of study.
 Worthen and Sanders (1987) define curriculum evaluation as “the formal determination of the
quality, effectiveness, or value of a program, product, project, process, objective, or curriculum”
 Ornstein and Hunkins (1998) define curriculum evaluation as “a process or cluster of processes
that people perform in order to gather data that will enable them to decide whether to accept,
change, or eliminate something- the curriculum in general or an educational textbook in particular”
25. A teacher takes records of knowledge, subject matter, and content that are needed to be written and
preserved:
A. Planner
B. Writer
C. Innovator
D. Implementor
RATIONALIZATION:
 Curriculum writer – A classroom teacher takes record of knowledge concepts, subject matter or
content. These need to be written or preserved. The teacher writes books, modules, laboratory
manuals, instructional guides, and reference materials in paper or electronic media.
 Curriculum planner – It is the role of the teacher to make a yearly, monthly or daily plan of the
curriculum.
The teacher takes into consideration several factors in planning a curriculum. These are: learners,
support material, time, subject matter or content, desired outcomes, context of the learners among
others.
 Curriculum innovator – Creativity and innovation are hallmarks of an excellent teacher. A
curriculum is always dynamic, hence keeps on changing. From the content strategies, ways of
holding, blocks of time, ways of evaluating, kinds of students and skills of teachers, one cannot find
a single eternal curriculum that would perpetually fit.
 Curriculum implementor – The curriculum that remains recommended or written will never serve
its purpose. Somebody has to implement it. Heart of schooling is the curriculum. It is this role where
the teacher becomes the implementor of the curriculum. She is at the height of an engagement with
the learners, with support materials in order to achieve the desired outcome. It is where teaching,
guiding and facilitating skills of the teacher is expected to be the highest level.
26. PAFTE proposed new curriculum for teachers’ education to make graduates globally competitive, what
type of curriculum is this?

RATIONALIZATION:
 Recommended Curriculum – Comes from a national agency like the DepEd, CHED, DOST or any
professional organization that has a stake in education.
 Written Curriculum – Includes documents, course of study, or syllabi handed down to the schools,
districts, division, departments, or colleges for implementation.
 Taught Curriculum – Different planned activities which are put into action in the classroom. Varied
activities that are implemented in order to arrive at the objectives or purposes of the written
curriculum. Used by the learners with the guidance of the teachers. Varies according to the learning
styles of the students and the teaching styles of the teachers.
 Supported Curriculum – Materials which support or help in the implementation of the written
curriculum. Should enable each learner to achieve real and lifelong learning.
 Assessed Curriculum – Tested or evaluated curriculum. A series of evaluations done by the teacher
to determine the extent of teaching or to tell if the students are progressing
 Learned Curriculum – Learning outcomes achieved by the students. Indicated by the results of the
tests and changes in behavior which can either be cognitive, affective or psychomotor
 Hidden Curriculum – Unintended curriculum which is not deliberately planned but may modify
behavior or influence learning outcomes
27. Specialization in TLE under the K-12 Curriculum starts in what grade level?
A. Grade 7 C. Grade 9
B. Grade 8 D. Grade 10
RATIONALIZATION:
The Technical-Vocational Education-based TLE is focused on technical skills development in any area.
Five common competencies, based on the training regulations of the Technical Education and Skills
Development Authority (TESDA), are covered in the exploratory phase (Grades 7 and 8): mensuration
and calculation, technical drafting, use of tools and equipment, maintenance of tools and equipment, and
occupational health and safety. The specialization phase is from Grades 9 to 12.
28. In which grade is mother tongue used as a medium of instruction according to the K-12 Law?
A. K to 1
B. K to Grade 2
C. K only
D. K to Grade 3
RATIONALIZATION:
One of the changes in Basic Education Curriculum brought about by the new K-12 program is the
introduction of Mother Tongue- Based Multilingual Education (MTB-MLE) specifically in Kindergarten,
Grades 1, 2 and 3 to support the goal of “Every Child- A- Reader and A –Writer” by Grade 1.”
MTB-MLE refers to “first-language-first” education that is, schooling which begins in the mother tongue
and transitions to additional languages particularly Filipino and English. It is meant to address the high
functional illiteracy of Filipinos where language plays a significant factor. Since the child’s own language
enables her/ him to express him/herself easily, then, there is no fear of making mistakes. It encourages
active participation by children in the learning process because they understand what is being discussed
and what is being asked of them. They can immediately use their mother tongue to construct and explain
their world, articulate their thoughts and add new concepts to what they already know.
29. Senior high school students in private schools are given .

A. Scholarships
B. Low tuition fee
C. Voucher
D. Discount in tuition fee
RATIONALIZATION:
Republic Act No. 10533 (RA 10533), otherwise known as the Enhanced Basic Education Act of 2013,
lengthens Philippine basic education from 10 years to 13 years with the addition of Kindergarten and
Grades 11 and 12 in Senior High School (SHS). Grade 11 was introduced in School Year (SY) 2016-17 and
Grade 12 will be introduced in SY 2017-2018.
RA 10533 explicitly expands Government Assistance to Students and Teachers in Private Education (E-
GASTPE or RA 8545) to include Grades 11 and 12. RA 10533 further mandates the Department of
Education (DepEd) to formulate programs to enact the abovementioned provision based on the
principles of public-private partnership. In this regard, DepEd Order No. 11, series of 2015 (DO 11 s.
2015) introduced the Senior High School Voucher Program (SHS VP) as a mechanism to provide financial
support to qualified students in SHS.
30. Which is the main objective of the Educational Service Contracting Scheme, or ESC?

own tuition fees
C. To fill up the private schools with students or else go bankrupt and close.
D. To enter into an agreement with parents to send their children to school or else they get penalized.
RATIONALIZATION:
The Education Service Contracting (ESC) scheme is a partnership program by the Department of
Education (DepEd) with certified private schools aimed at decongesting overcrowded public schools.
Republic Act No. 8545, otherwise known as the Expanded Government Assistance to Students and
Teachers in Private Education (GASTPE), provides the legal basis for the ESC. The ESC bestows grants to
“poor but deserving” elementary graduates to attend private secondary schools subcontracted by the
government. The Fund for Assistance for Private Education (FAPE) has been designated by the DepEd to
manage the ESC program on its behalf.

as the Expanded GASTPE (E-GASTPE) Act. E-GASTPE was further expanded by RA 10533 or the Enhanced
Basic Education Act of 2013 to cover senior high school.
What are the GASTPE Programs currently provided by the DepEd?
 Education Service Contracting (ESC)
 Teachers’ Salary Subsidy (TSS)

 In-Service Training (INSET)
 Research
32. What agency formulated the standards of the various learning areas in the Senior High School?
A. PRC
B. CHED
C. TESDA
D. DepEd
RATIONALIZATION:
The contents of the various learning areas in SHS are based on the College Readiness Standards of the
Commission on Higher Education (CHED); they will be equivalent to the courses offered under the
General Education Curriculum of higher education. The core subjects are English, Filipino, Mathematics,
and Science. Contents of the Mathematics and Language curriculum in Grade 12 will depend on the
specialization of the student. Contemporary issues on politics and governance, society and culture in the
country and around the world are the Araling Panlipunan subjects in the SHS. Subjects of the General
Education Curriculum such as Literature of the Philippines, Literature of the World, and Philosophy of the

33. Which is TRUE of Kindergarten grades?

A. There are numerical grades with descriptions.
B. Grades are compared like the grades in Grade 1.
C. Remarks like Passed and Failed are used. D.
There are no numerical grades.
RATIONALIZATION:
For Kindergarten, checklists and anecdotal records are used instead of numerical grades. These are based
on learning standards found in the Kindergarten curriculum guide. It is important for teachers to keep a
portfolio, which is a record or compilation of the learner’s output, such as writing samples, accomplished
activity sheets, and artwork. The portfolio can provide concrete evidence of how much or how well the
learner is able to accomplish the skills and competencies. Through checklists, the teacher will be able to
indicate whether or not the child is able to demonstrate knowledge and/or perform the tasks expected of
Kindergarten learners. Through anecdotal records or narrative reports, teachers will be able to describe
learners’ behavior, attitude, and effort in school work.
34. Which is the percentage contribution of quarterly assessment to the grade of the student from Grades 1 to
10?
A. 30% C. 20%
B. 25% D. 15%

.
A. As shown in the general average
B. In 2 learning areas
C. In three or more learning areas
D. In four learning areas
RATIONALIZATION:
Under the K-12 Grading System, students who failed in 3 or more subjects in Grades 1 to 10 are retained
in the same grade level. Those who failed in 1 or 2 subjects are required to take and pass remedial
classes.
36. In the new K-12 Grading System, which is described as "Did not meet expectations"?
A. Below 72%
B. Below 74%
C. Below 76%
D. Below 75%
RATIONALIZATION:
CHILD AND ADOLESCENT DEVELOPMENT
37. If a child was raised by authoritative parents, how will most likely will he/she behave in class?
A. Relates well to classmates
B. Quarrels often with classmates
C. Is suspicious of others
D. Has low level if independence
RATIONALIZATION:
Authoritative parenting is a parenting style characterized by high responsiveness and high demands.
Authoritative parents are responsive to the child's emotional needs while having high standards. They set
limits and are very consistent in enforcing boundaries. Kids raised by authoritative parents are more
likely to become independent, self-reliant, socially accepted, academically successful, and well- behaved.
They are less likely to report depression and anxiety, and less likely to engage in antisocial behavior like
delinquency and drug use.
38. Every person strives to satisfy physical needs. He/she progressed materially if he/she increases the
capacity to meet those needs and lives in material comfort, in addition, he also seeks social acceptance,
prestige, status or superiority over other people. How does this point about human?
I. Psychological growth and spiritual program only begin when a person rises above the mere
satisfaction for physical and social needs
II. Life is more than material satisfaction
III. One should belong to church to satisfy those needs
A. I and III
B. II only
C. I and II
D. I, II and III
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is letter C. Abraham Maslow’s hierarchy of needs suggests that a person needs to
satisfy his/her physiological needs, such as food, water, sleep, and warmth. He believes that when one of
the lower-level needs have been met, one can move on to the next level of needs, which are for safety and
security. As people progress up the pyramid, one’s needs become increasingly psychological and social.
Social acceptance falls under an individual’s social needs. Social needs include friendships, romantic
attachments, family, social groups, community groups, churches and religious organizations. However,
reading through Abraham Maslow’s biography would tell that he is an atheist. He found it difficult to
accept religious as valid. With this, we could say that only statements I and II are true.
39. Science Teacher Iah showed her class a glass of water with an egg in it. She asked the class: “What happens
to the egg if I add three tablespoon salt to the glass of water?” This is hypothesis formulation. What can you
infer about the cognitive developmental stage of Teacher Rita’s class?
A. Pre-operational stage
B. Concrete operational stage
C. Formal operational stage
D. Between concrete and formal operational stage
RATIONALIZATION:
The formal operational stage is the fourth and final stage of Jean Piaget's theory of cognitive
development. It begins at approximately age 12 and lasts into adulthood. At this point in development,
thinking becomes much more sophisticated and advanced. Kids can think about abstract and theoretical
concepts and use logic to come up with creative solutions to problems. Skills such as logical thought,
deductive reasoning, and systematic planning also emerge during this stage.
40. When a child says that the sun is sleeping at night, the child is in the pre-operational stage, particularly
.
A. Animism B. Egocentrism C. Centration D. Reversibility
RATIONALIZATION:
Animism is the belief that inanimate objects (such as toys and teddy bears) have human feelings and
intentions. By animism Piaget (1929) meant that for the pre-operational child the world of nature is alive,
conscious and has a purpose.
41. When the daughter is competing with the mother for the father’s attention, the daughter is said to be
experiencing .
A. Electra complex
B. Identity crisis
C. Oedipus complex
D. Sexual deviation
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is letter A. The Electra complex is a psychoanalytic term used to describe a girl's
sense of competition with her mother for the affections of her father. It is comparable to the male
Oedipus complex. Resolving the Electra complex ultimately leads to identification with the same-sex
parent.
42. In Sigmund Freud’s personality component, which is first to emerge in process of child development? A.
Id
B. Ego
C. Superego
D. Both ego and id
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is A. The id is the primitive and instinctive component of personality. It consists of all
the inherited (i.e., biological) components of personality present at birth, including the sex (life) instinct –
Eros (which contains the libido), and the aggressive (death) instinct - Thanatos.
The id is the impulsive (and unconscious) part of our psyche which responds directly and immediately to
the instincts. The personality of the newborn child is all id and only later does it develop an ego and
super-ego.
43. A student follows his teacher and receives star as reward. According to Kohlberg, to what level of moral
development does the student belong to?
A. Post-conventional
B. Conventional
C. Between preconventional and conventional
D. Preconventional
RATIONALIZATION:
Kohlberg identified three levels of moral reasoning: pre-conventional, conventional, and post-
conventional. Each level is associated with increasingly complex stages of moral development.
 Level 1: Preconventional – Throughout the preconventional level, a child’s sense of morality is
externally controlled. Children accept and believe the rules of authority figures, such as parents and
teachers. A child with pre-conventional morality has not yet adopted or internalized society’s
conventions regarding what is right or wrong, but instead focuses largely on external consequences
that certain actions may bring.
 Level 2: Conventional – Throughout the conventional level, a child’s sense of morality is tied to
personal and societal relationships. Children continue to accept the rules of authority figures, but
this is now due to their belief that this is necessary to ensure positive relationships and societal
order. Adherence to rules and conventions is somewhat rigid during these stages, and a rule’s
appropriateness or fairness is seldom questioned.
 Level 3: Postconventional
 Throughout the postconventional level, a person’s sense of morality is defined in terms of more
abstract principles and values. People now believe that some laws are unjust and should be changed
or eliminated. This level is marked by a growing realization that individuals are separate entities
from society and that individuals may disobey rules inconsistent with their own principles. Post-
conventional moralists live by their own ethical principles—principles that typically include such
basic human rights as life, liberty, and justice—and view rules as useful but changeable
mechanisms, rather than absolute dictates that must be obeyed without question. Because post-
conventional individuals elevate their own moral evaluation of a situation over social conventions,
their behavior, especially at stage six, can sometimes be confused with that of those at the pre-
conventional level. Some theorists have speculated that many people may never reach this level of
abstract moral reasoning.
44. Which is an example of a child's mesosystem that does NOT work favorably for the child?
A. The child is not in good terms with his peers.
B. There is so much hostility at home.
C. The child's parent and teacher are at odds.
D. The child is sickly.
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is C. Mesosystem refers to the interaction between two microsystems. A child’s
parent and teacher that are both part of his microsystem (immediate environment like family, school,
neighboorhood, and peers). The mesosystem is a component of the ecological systems theory developed
by Urie Bronfenbrenner in the 1970s. It proposes that children don't develop only by influence
from their close familial environment - surrounding environments are influential on the development of
the child as well.
FACILITATING LEARNING
45. In Gardner’s’ multiple intelligences, naturalists can best .

A. Use hands to fix and create, body interpretations B.
Analyze ecological and natural situations and data
C. Meditate, reflect, maintain composure
D. Work with others
RATIONALIZATION:
Theory of Multiple Intelligences
This theory suggests that traditional psychometric views of intelligence are too limited. Gardner first
outlined his theory in his 1983 book "Frames of Mind: The Theory of Multiple Intelligences," where he
suggested that all people have different kinds of "intelligences." Gardner proposed that there are eight
intelligences, and has suggested the possible addition of a ninth known as "existentialist intelligence."
Naturalistic is the most recent addition to Gardner’s theory and has been met with more resistance than
his original seven intelligences. According to Gardner, individuals who are high in this type of intelligence
are more in tune with nature and are often interested in nurturing, exploring the environment, and
learning about other species. These individuals are said to be highly aware of even subtle changes to their
environments.
Characteristics of naturalistic intelligence include:
 Interested in subjects such as botany, biology, and zoology
 Good at categorizing and cataloging information easily
 May enjoy camping, gardening, hiking, and exploring the outdoors
 Doesn’t enjoy learning unfamiliar topics that have no connection to nature
46. In Bruner's three-tiered learning, which is action-based?

A. Enactive learning
B. Inactive learning
C. Iconic learning
D. Symbolic learning
RATIONALIZATION:
Enactive learning appears first. It involves encoding action-based information and storing it in our
memory. For example, in the form of movement as a muscle memory, a baby might remember the action
of shaking a rattle.
47. A recent study of a group of LET results reveals that those who took the Licensure Exams for Teachers right
after year of graduation had higher chances of passing than those who postponed taking the LET after year
of graduation. Which of Thorndike's laws explains this?
A. Exercise
B. Recency
C. Frequency
D. Contiguity
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is B. The situation emphasizes the Law of Recency being applied in taking the LET.
According to this law, things most recently learned are best remembered, while the things learned some
time ago are remembered with more difficulty.
48. Who perceive learners not as passive recipients of information, but as constructors of knowledge as they
interact with the environment and as they reorganize their mental structures?
A. Metacognitivists
B. Constructivists
C. Behaviorists
D. Cognitivists
RATIONALIZATION:
Constructivism is basically a theory -- based on observation and scientific study -- about how people
learn. It says that people construct their own understanding and knowledge of the world, through
experiencing things and reflecting on those experiences.
49. According to Piaget's cognitive concept, what is the learning experience structure during infancy and early
years?
A. Accommodation
B. Assimilation
C. Schema
D. Equilibrium
RATIONALIZATION:
The Correct Answer is letter B. In assimilation, the child takes in new information or experiences and
incorporates them into existing ideas. Assimilation plays an important role in how we learn about the
world around us. In early childhood, children are constantly assimilating new information and
experiences into their existing knowledge about the world. For example, a 2-year-old child sees a man
who is bald on top of his head and has long frizzy hair on the sides. To his father’s horror, the toddler
shouts “Clown, clown” (Siegler et al., 2003)
50. Rey is always fearful of freely roaming dogs but does not mind dogs in a pen or on a leash. What feature of
classical condition is exhibited?
A. Discrimination
B. Extinction
C. Generalization
D. Practice
RATIONALIZATION:
In classical conditioning, discrimination is the ability to differentiate between a conditioned stimulus and
other stimuli that have not been paired with an unconditioned stimulus. For example, if a bell tone were
the conditioned stimulus, discrimination would involve being able to tell the difference between the bell
sound and other similar sounds.
51. Teacher Iah begins a lesson on basic dance position by demonstrating the arms and feet position in slow
motion and physically guiding her students through correct movements. As her students become more
skillful, she just gives verbal instruction. With Vygotsky's theory in mind, what does Teacher Iah do?
A. Guided participation
B. Peer Interaction
C. Apprenticeship
D. Scaffolding
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is D. Scaffolding consists of the activities provided by the educator, or more
competent peer, to support the student as he or she is led through the zone of proximal development.
Support is tapered off (i.e. withdrawn) as it becomes unnecessary, much as a scaffold is removed from a
building during construction. The student will then be able to complete the task again on his own.
PRINCIPLES OF TEACHING
52. In providing valid learning experiences, the primary factor to consider is/are .
A. Objectives and aims of the lesson
B. Nature of the learner
C. Competence of the teachers
D. Material resources
53. You are required to formulate your own philosophy of education in the course the teaching profession. In
Bloom's revised taxonomy, which cognitive processing are you?
A. Applying
B. Evaluating
C. Creating
D. Analyzing
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is C. “Formulating” your own philosophy of education is under the Synthesis Level of
Cognitive learning in Bloom’s Taxonomy and under Creating Level in the Revised Cognitive Taxonomy of
Anderson. Synthesis was placed on the fifth level of the Bloom's taxonomy pyramid and 6 th level of the
Anderson’s Revised taxonomy as it requires students to infer relationships among sources. The high-level
thinking of synthesis is evident when students put the parts or information they have reviewed as a
whole in order to create new meaning or a new structure.
54. Sir Johdel sees to it that his class sees the importance of the grammar lessons in English and so gets
intrinsically motivated to learn. In which level of processing is the class expected to act?
A. Metacognitive system
B. Cognitive
C. Between cognitive and metacognitive system
D. Self-system
RATIONALIZATION:
 Metacognitive System: involves monitoring accuracy, clarity, process, specifying goals, and
examining motivation
 Self-System: involves examining emotions, efficacy, and importance
 Knowledge Utilization: involves decision-making, problem-solving, experimenting, and
investigating
 Retrieval: involves recognizing, recalling, and executing
55. In the 4a´s approach to facilitating learning, the students learn best to relate ideas to real life through
.
A. Activity
B. Abstraction
C. Analysis D.
Application
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is D, application. Application means using learned material in a new or unprompted
use of an abstraction and relating what was learned in real-life situations.
56. This is the time the teacher actually spends in the classroom giving instruction by various means.
A. Academic learning time C. Allocated time
B. Mandated time D. Teaching time
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer D. Instructional time, also referred to as teaching time is the portion of classroom
time spent teaching the students particular knowledge, concepts, and skills pertaining to school subjects.
It excludes routine procedural matters, transitions, and discipline.
57. It is less interactive and requires relatively shorter period of time to cover content. What type of method is
this?
A. Both inductive and deductive
B. Inductive
C. Both but more deductive
D. Deductive
RATIONALIZATION:
Deductive approach involves the learners being given a general rule, which is then applied to specific
ideas and examples and honed through practice exercises. It does not require much student interaction
but can be executed by the teacher with less time for preparation.
58. In a classroom situation where students are discussing whether government efforts to establish peace in
Mindanao will be beneficial to the whole country or not, which is the most appropriate strategy?
A. Debate
B. Consensus taking
C. Visualization exercise
D. Conflict resolution
RATIONALIZATION:
A debate is a discussion or structured contest about an issue or a resolution. A formal debate involves two
sides: one supporting a resolution and one opposing it. Such a debate is bound by rules previously agreed
upon. Debates may be judged in order to declare a winning side. Debates are a great way for students to
get involved in class. Students have to research topics, prepare for the debate with their team, and think
on their feet as they practice public speaking. Learning how to debate does more than improve speaking
skills; it also makes for better listeners.
59. I wasn’t satisfied with Student B’s yes as an answer and so I asked her to explain why? Which did I do?
A. Prompting C. Probing
B. Asking non-directed question D. Rephrasing
RATIONALIZATION:
Probing is asking follow-up questions when we do not fully understand a response, when answers are
vague or ambiguous or when we want to obtain more specific or in-depth information.
60. A question is raised by one student. You don’t answer it but throw back the question to the class. Which is
this reacting behavior?
A. Soliciting students’ questions
B. Redirecting questions to other pupils
C. Providing corrective feedback
D. Asking follow up question
RATIONALIZATION:
Redirecting Questions. These questions are simply asking a question in response to the question just
asked. Basically, these questions are meant to help guide students to the answer by prodding them to
perhaps think about why the question was asked and to try to understand their instructor's thinking.
61. Teacher Karen delegates some of her responsibilities to the whole class assigns separate students monitor
for attendance, classroom cleaning and distribution of learning materials. In what aspect is she good?
A. Instructional Material
B. Values development
C. Classroom management
D. Classroom teaching
RATIONALIZATION:
Classroom management is a term that teachers use to describe the process of ensuring that classroom
lessons run smoothly without disruptive behavior from students compromising the delivery of
instruction. The term also applies to the prevention of disruptive behavior preemptively, as well as
effectively responding to it after it happens. It can be explained as the actions and directions that teachers
use to create a successful learning environment; indeed, having a positive impact on students achieving
given learning requirements and goals.
62. Among mistaken goals in the Acceptance Approach to discipline, what happens when students seek to hurt
others to make up for being hurt or rejected?
A. Revenge seeking
B. Power seeking
C. Withdrawal
D. Attention getting
RATIONALIZATION:
The goal of revenge is closely related to the goal of power. Some students feel they should be allowed to
do whatever they like and should consider anyone who tries to stop them as an enemy. These students
are very difficult to deal with because they do not care about consequences – consequences only give
them justification for revenge. Dreikurs suggests that these students feel the need to hurt others because
they have been hurt themselves. What they need most is understanding and acceptance. According to
Dreikurs, teachers can best provide this by calling on the class to support and encourage these students
and sometimes this is best accomplished by selecting a student with high self-esteem to befriend the
troublemaker and help him or her develop constructive behavior. The teacher also may be able to set up
situations that allow revengeful students to exhibit talents or strengths, helping to persuade these
students that they can behave in ways that bring acceptance and status. This is a very difficult thing to ask
of a class, and students who seek revenge at first reject efforts made by others. It takes persistence and
patience on everyone’s part to change such a situation.
63. Many researchers have identified important components of classroom management, including beginning
the school year with a positive emphasis on management; arranging the room in a way conducive to
effective management; and identifying and implementing rules and operating procedures. How may these
components of classroom management be described?
I. Reactive
II. Preventive
III. Proactive
A. II and III B. I only C. I, II and III D. II only

RATIONALIZATION:
It's essential for good developers to switch between reactive and proactive modes. The definition of
reactive and proactive is as follows: Reactive: Reacting to the past rather than anticipating the future.
Proactive: Acting before a situation becomes a source of confrontation or crisis.
64. A child who is having difficulty containing himself is asked to do an errand. By the time he comes back, the
rest of the class has calmed down. Which classroom management technique was employed?
A. Proximity control
B. Antiseptic bouncing
C. Signal interference
D. Walking around
RATIONALIZATION:
This technique is used to prevent behavior from escalating. You remove the student from the classroom
setting when you notice that the student is becoming frustrated or agitated, before inappropriate
behavior occurs. The technique allows the student to calm down, move, avoid embarrassment, and, upon
return to the work area, begin to work again. Many teachers accomplish the "bounce" by having the
student go on an errand, perhaps taking a note to a colleague or returning material to the library. Color
coding the note can signal a colleague that the student needed a "change of pace" and that the note does
not need a response.
65. Continuously scanning the classroom even when Teacher is working with small groups illustrates
Kounin's .
A. With-it-ness
B. Diligence
C. Aggressiveness
D. Sensitiveness
RATIONALIZATION:
"Withitness" is a term created by Kounin to describe the teacher's awareness of what is going on in all
parts of the classroom at all times. We commonly refer to this as "having eyes in the back of the head."
DEVELOPMENTAL READING
66. In acquiring language competence, what is the process of attaching meaning to words?
A. Phonology
B. Syntax
C. Semantics
D. Morphology
RATIONALIZATION:
Semantics is the study of meaning in language. The term is taken from the Greek “seme”, meaning sign.
The word meaning can be defined in many ways, but the definition most pertinent to linguistics and the
one we will use is that meaning is "the function of signs in language."
67. Which is the correct order of reading skills in Goodell’s Reading Skills ladder?
I. Finding the main idea
II. Basic sight words
III. Vocabulary building
IV. Using contextual clues
V. Using structural analysis
VI. Using phonetic analysis
A. II, V, IV, I, III, VI C. II, I, IV, III, V, VI

B. II, VI, V, IV, III, I D. II, III, VI, IV, V, I
RATIONALIZATION:
Grace Goodell’s Reading Skills Ladder
1. Basic sight words
2. Using phonetic analysis
3. Using structural analysis
4. Using contextual clues
5. Vocabulary building
6. Finding the main idea
7. Finding the supporting details
8. Interfering meanings, drawing conclusions
9. Classifying and organizing facts
10. Using parts of the book
11. Using the dictionary
12. Using the encyclopedias and other reference books
13. Borrowing library books for research and enjoyment
14. Starting your private library collection
15. Exposure to reading from mass media
16. Reading from the Internet
68. Among models of reading strategies, what did student Janus adopt when he reads back and forth, attending
to both what is in his mind and what’s on the page?
A. Bottoms-up
B. Interactive
C. Down-top
D. Top-down
RATIONALIZATION:
The reading process involves the text, the reader, and the interaction between the two. Theorists have
proposed three basic models of how reading occurs: bottom-up, top-down, and interactive.
 Interactive Models - Reading is a process of constructing meaning from text through the use of both
bottom-up and top-down processes, strategies, and skills (focus on the interaction). Both bottom-up
and top-down processes occur simultaneously for the reader to comprehend the meaning of the
text.
Two levels of interaction:
- the interaction between the reader and the text.
- the interaction between two kinds of cognitive skills: identification and interpretation.
 Bottom-up Models - Reading is a decoding process (focus on the text).
 Top-Down Models - Reading is a psycholinguistic guessing game (focus on the reader). The reader
receives input from the text, makes predictions (based on conceptual abilities, background
knowledge, and language processing skills), tests and confirms or revises those prediction.
69. Edna is reading a book and he needs to know the meaning of the word “obliterate”. However, the passage
does not give enough cues for him to figure out what the word means. He decided to use his pocket
dictionary, so he would know what the word means. Which of the following strategies should she use so
that she would know the meaning of the unfamiliar word?
A. Scanning
B. Skimming
C. Close reading
D. Careful slow reading
RATIONALIZATION:
Skimming and scanning are reading techniques that use rapid eye movement and keywords to move
quickly through text for slightly different purposes. Skimming is reading rapidly in order to get a general
overview of the material. Scanning is reading rapidly in order to find specific facts. While skimming tells
you what general information is within a section, scanning helps you locate a particular fact. Skimming is
like snorkeling, and scanning is more like pearl diving.
Use skimming in previewing (reading before you read), reviewing (reading after you read), determining
the main idea from a long selection you don't wish to read, or when trying to find source material for a
research paper.
Use scanning in research to find particular facts, to study fact-heavy topics, and to answer questions
requiring factual support.
SOCIAL DIMENSIONS OF EDUCATION
70. The International Commission of Education for the 21st Century advocates Four Pillars. Which of the 4
Pillars should be given emphasis in teaching if there are peace and cultural diversity issues?
A. Learning to know
B. Learning to be
C. Learning to live together
D. Learning to do
RATIONALIZATION:
Learning to live together implies that the teacher should help the students develop an understanding of
other people and appreciation of interdependence since we live in a closely connected world.
71. Education in the human rights starts with what?
A. Loving others
B. Respect towards the others
C. Liking others
D. Caring others
RATIONALIZATION:
The mandate for human rights education is unequivocal: you have a human right to know your rights.
The Preamble to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) exhorts "every individual and every
organ of society" to "strive by teaching and education to promote respect for these rights and freedoms."
Article 30 of the UDHR declares that one goal of education should be "the strengthening of respect for
human rights and fundamental freedoms." According to the International Covenant on Civil and Political
Rights (ICCPR), a government "may not stand in the way of people's learning about [their rights]."
72. For a positive learning environment, it is good to make clear that an individual's beliefs and activities
should be understood by others in terms of that individual's own culture. Which concept is explained?
A. Ethical relativism
B. Cultural relativism
C. Individual differences
D. Cultural sensitivity
RATIONALIZATION:
Cultural relativism is the idea that a person's beliefs, values, and practices should be understood based on
that person's own culture, rather than be judged against the criteria of another. Cultural relativism refers
to not judging a culture to our own standards of what is right or wrong, strange or normal. Instead, we
should try to understand cultural practices of other groups in its own cultural context.
73. Which is a progressive approach in transforming education that holistically critiques current shortcomings,
failures, and discriminatory practices in education?
A. Transformative education
B. Peace Education
C. Multicultural education
D. Values education
RATIONALIZATION:
Multicultural education refers to any form of education or teaching that incorporates the histories, texts,
values, beliefs, and perspectives of people from different cultural backgrounds. At the classroom level, for
example, teachers may modify or incorporate lessons to reflect the cultural diversity of the students in a
particular class. In many cases, “culture” is defined in the broadest possible sense, encompassing race,
ethnicity, nationality, language, religion, class, gender, sexual orientation, and “exceptionality”— a term
applied to students with specialized needs or disabilities.
74. Which statement thinking/behavior indicates that he/she values diversity?

A. He/she emphasizes on the differences among people and disregards their commonalities
B. He/she regards his culture as inferior to other’s culture
C. He/she regards his culture as superior to other’s culture
D. He/she accepts the fact that all people are unique in their own.
RATIONALIZATION:
The concept of diversity encompasses acceptance and respect. It means understanding that each
individual is unique, and recognizing our individual differences. These can be along the dimensions of
race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, socio-economic status, age, physical abilities, religious beliefs,
political beliefs, or other ideologies. It is the exploration of these differences in a safe, positive, and
nurturing environment. It is about understanding each other and moving beyond simple tolerance to
embracing and celebrating the rich dimensions of diversity contained within each individual.
75. There is a gap between words and deeds, and so the teacher needs to exemplify certain characteristics, the
most personal of which is
A. To monitor one's own behavior
B. To be tolerant of others
C. To keep an open mind
D. To engage in socio-civic projects
RATIONALIZATION:
Self-monitoring is a concept introduced during the 1970s by Mark Snyder, that shows how much people
monitor their self-presentations, expressive behavior, and nonverbal affective displays. It is the act of
observing and regulating one's own behavior in a social context. It is defined as a personality trait that
refers to an ability to regulate behavior to accommodate social situations. People concerned with their
expressive self-presentation (see impression management) tend to closely monitor their audience in
order to ensure appropriate or desired public appearances. Self-monitors try to understand how
individuals and groups will perceive their actions. Some personality types commonly act spontaneously
(low self-monitors) and others are more apt to purposely control and consciously adjust their behavior
(high self-monitors).
76. Among important characteristics of successful teaching, which connotes dress, physique, freedom from
personal defects, personal magnetism, neatness, cleanliness, posture, and personal charm.
A. Dominance
B. Buoyancy
C. Attractiveness
D. Drive
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is C. Attractiveness connotes dress, physique, freedom from personal defects,
personal magnetism, neatness, cleanliness, posture, and personal charm. Physical attractiveness is the
degree to which a person's physical features are considered aesthetically pleasing or beautiful. Physical
attraction itself includes universal perceptions common to all human cultures, as well as aspects that are
culturally and socially dependent, along with individual subjective preferences.
77. Among the important successful teaching which of the following shows fairness, impartiality, open
mindedness, free from prejudice and sense of awareness?
A. Buoyancy
B. Objectivity
C. Emotional Stability
D. Considerateness
RATIONALIZATION:
Objectivity is a noun that means a lack of bias, judgment, or prejudice. Maintaining one's objectivity is the
most important job of a judge.
78. What set of core values that Filipino Teacher possess to be a global teacher?
A. Cultural and historical rootedness and nationalism
B. Economic excellence and materialism
C. Inclusiveness and self-perseverance
D. Boundless thinking and interconnectivity
RATIONALIZATION:
A global teacher is a competent teacher who is armed with enough skills, appropriate attitude and
universal values to teach students with both time-tested as well as modern technologies in education in
any place in the world. He or she is someone who thinks and acts both locally and globally with
worldwide perspectives, right in the communities where he or she is situated. Patience, care, and kind
personality are characteristics related to being a compassionate person and having a sensitivity to
student differences, particularly with learners, was the second most frequently reported quality.
RESEARCH
79. In doing research, what will support a conclusion of a study so that it can be valid and true?
A. Hypothesis
B. Assumptions
C. Factual evidence
D. Implications
RATIONALIZATION:
Evidence is the facts, examples, or sources used to support a claim. In the sciences, this might be data
retrieved from an experiment or a scientific journal article. In the humanities, it may be a quotation from
the text, published information from academic critics, or a theory that supports your claims.
80. What type of research will be applied if you will group the students according to Grade 3,4,5 and 6?
A. Longitudinal
B. Experimental
C. Cross sectional
D. Strata
RATIONALIZATION:
Strata. Stratified random sampling refers to a sampling method in which the total population is divided
into non-overlapping subgroups. Each of the subgroups is called a stratum, and two or more subgroups
are called strata.
‘Strata’ is a characteristic of stratified sampling method in which the entire population is divided into
several homogeneous groups and a simple random sampling technique is applied on each of these
groups. Such homogeneous groups are called as Strata.
The population of each and every stratum is identical and significantly differs in its characteristics from
those of others. A stratum enables selection of no. of samples in accordance with the proportion of
sample population in the entire population. In this way, strata reduce the chances of under or over
representation of any particular type of population in sampling and provide proportionate
representation to all.
81. You want to examine specific-subpopulations such as those who played a part in the EDSA revolution with
focus on how their attitudes have changed, which study will you do?
A. Longitudinal study
B. Trend study
C. Cohort study
D. Cross-sectional study
ASSESSMENT OF LEARNING
82. The most appropriate focus for assessment of learning is determining .
A. Congruence of intended objectives and outcome
B. Effective teacher instruction and feedback
C. Efficiency of class management and discipline
D. Relevance of curriculum content and lesson content
RATIONALIZATION:
The most important aspect to consider in assessment of learning is the achievement of the lesson
objectives/outcomes. The results of assessment should be able to improve students’ learning and teacher’
teaching as both respond to the information it provides. Assessment is an ongoing process that arises out
of the interaction between teaching and learning.
83. After teaching them the process of experimenting, Teacher Vanessa wanted her students to be able set up
an experiment to find an answer to a scientific problem. Which will she ask her students to do?
A. Research on the answers to this scientific problem: Can aerial plans survive when transferred in soil?
B. Can be aerial plants also live on land? Research on experiments already conducted.
C. Observe if aerial plants can survive when planted in soil. Note your observations and present them in
class.
D. Set up and experiment to find out if aerial plants can also live on land.
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is D. It is considered as authentic form of assessment. Authentic assessment is the
measurement of "intellectual accomplishments that are worthwhile, significant, and meaningful," as
contrasted to multiple choice standardized tests. Authentic assessment can be devised by the teacher, or
in collaboration with the student by engaging student voice.
84. Teacher Prince sees to it that he checks for understanding as he teaches to ensure that every student can
follow the lesson. With what for/s of assessment is Teacher Prince occupied with?
A. Assessment AS Learning B.
Assessment FOR Learning
C. Assessment OF Learning
D. Assessment FOR and AS Learning
RATIONALIZATION:
Assessment for learning is ongoing assessment that allows teachers to monitor students on a day-today
basis and modify their teaching based on what the students need to be successful. This assessment
provides students with the timely, specific feedback that they need to make adjustments to their learning.
85. Teacher Merta is doing an assessment of learning. Which of the following questions would he likely
consider?
A. Have the students already achieved the intended outcomes?
B. Do the students have the prerequisite skills?
C. Which tasks are students handling satisfactorily?
D. What grade should I assign to each student?
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is D. The purpose of assessment OF learning is usually summative and is mostly done
at the end of a task, unit of work etc. “It is designed to provide evidence of achievement to parents, other
educators, the students themselves and sometimes to outside groups (e.g., employers, other educational
institutions).”
86. Which of the following is an example of diagnostic?

A. Journal writing and discussion
B. Student achievement test
C. 10-item test to contract difficulty of student
D. Quiz after unit lesson
RATIONALIZATION:
A diagnostic test is a form of pre-assessment that is used to determine students’ specific areas of
weakness and strength prior to instruction. It is primarily used to diagnose students difficulties and to
guide lesson and curriculum planning.
87. How can a teacher establish the reliability test?

I. Repeat the same test
II. Administer a parallel test
III. Split the test
IV. Vary the number of items
A. I, II, and III

B. I, II, and IV
C. I and IV only
D. II and III
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is letter A. Reliability refers to the consistency of a measure. The following are the
methods to establish reliability:

Showcase portfolios are created by a learner to showcase or display their best quality of work. A portfolio
a student submits to a teacher would include a representation of course of work or projects, while a
portfolio for a job interview would highlight skills and qualifications. Since in applying for a job you
basically want to impress the employer to hire you, you would need to highlight your best achievements,
which can be done through showcase portfolio.

A. Holistic
rubric B.
Analytical
C. Holistic only
D. Both Holistic and analytical

achievements based on multiple criteria using a single rubric. You can assign different weights (value) to
different criteria and include overall achievement by totaling the criteria. Because it can include many
criteria, it can assess an individual’s strengths and weaknesses. As such, it is more effective for self-
directed learning.
91. In this type assessment, the score of the student in a test is related to other students.
A. Criterion-referenced
B. Norm-referenced
C. Formative
D. Diagnostic
RATIONALIZATION:
Norm-referenced test reports whether test takers performed worse or better than a hypothetically
average student, which is determined by comparing scores against the performance results of a
statistically selected group of test takers, typically of the same age or grade level, who have already taken
the exam.
92. Which test is subjective and less reliable for scoring and grading?
A. Completion
B. True or false
C. Matching
D. Essay
RATIONALIZATION:
A subjective test is evaluated by giving an opinion. It can be compared with an objective test, which has
right or wrong answers and so can be marked objectively. Subjective tests are more challenging and
expensive to prepare, administer and evaluate correctly, but they can be more valid.
Tests of writing ability like essays are often subjective because they require an examiner to give an
opinion on the level of the writing.
93. Which does NOT belong to the group?

A. Completion test
B. Matching type
C. Multiple choice
D. Alternate response
RATIONALIZATION:

answer to show mastery of knowledge or skills. Matching type, multiple choice, and alternate response
belong to selection type of test assessments in which students select a response from provided
alternatives (options).
94. Miss Eugenio would like to cover a wide variety of objectives in the quarterly examination in her English
class lesson on subject-verb agreement. Which of the following types of test is the most appropriate?
A. True-False B. Matching C. Multiple Choice D. Essay

The correct answer is C. Among the given options, multiple choice can cover the widest scope of
objectives because of its nature. For example, a single 150-item licensure examination for teachers, which
is considered as multiple-choice type, can measure wide set of competencies in different subjects in
Professional Education.
95. What can be said of student performance in a negatively skewed class score distribution? A.
Most students performed well.
B. All students have average performance.
C. Few students performed well.
D. Most students performed poorly.
RATIONALIZATION:
A class’ score distribution is negatively skewed, or skewed to the left, if the scores fall toward the higher
side of the scale and there are very few low scores since most of the students got high scores.
96. A negative discrimination index means that:

A. The test item has low reliability.
B. The test item could not discriminate between the lower and upper groups.
C. More from the lower group answered the test item correctly.
D. More from the upper group got the item correctly.
RATIONALIZATION:
Discrimination Index refers to how well an assessment differentiates between high and low scorers. In
other words, you should be able to expect that the high-performing students would select the correct
answer for each question more often than the low-performing students. If this is true, then the
assessment is said to have a positive discrimination index (between 0 and 1) -- indicating that students
who received a high total score chose the correct answer for a specific item more often than the students
who had a lower overall score. If, however, you find that more of the low-performing students got a
specific item correct, then the item has a negative discrimination index (between -1 and 0).
EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGY
97. Performance experiment is an example of .

A. Demonstration
B. Direct purposeful experience
C. Contrived experience
D. Dramatized experience
RATIONALIZATION:
Direct purposeful experiences are our concrete and first hand experiences that make up the foundation of
our learning. These are the rich experiences that our senses bring from which we construct the ideas, the
concepts, the generalizations that give meaning and order to our lives (Dale, 1969). They are the sensory
experiences.
Example of Direct Purposeful Activities
1. Preparing meals or snacks
2. Making a piece of furniture
3. Performing a laboratory experiment
4. Delivering a speech
98. The more senses that are involved, the more and the better the learning. Which practice is aligned with
this principle?
A. Employ cooperative learning.

C. Bring students to field trips with the consent of school and parents.
D. Invite parents as resource speakers in class.
RATIONALIZATION:
The correct answer is A. Cooperative learning is considered as a direct purposeful activity and first-hand
experience which means that it involves more senses than the other options given.
99. “What I hear, I forget. What I see, I remember. What I do, I understand.” This means that pupils learn
best when they .
A. Watch TV
B. Take active part in the teaching-learning process
C. Work independently
D. Work with groups
RATIONALIZATION:
The Chinese sentence above literally translates to "Not hearing is not as good as hearing, hearing is not as
good as seeing, seeing is not as good as mentally knowing, mentally knowing is not as good as acting;
true learning continues up to the point that action comes forth (or, only when a thing produces action
can it be said to have been truly learned)." It means that learning by doing is better than hearing and
seeing.
100. Teacher Dada demonstrates how to work with a Math Application that provides
practice in adding mixed fractions. The students then work independently with the app to provide them
sufficient practice in adding mixed fraction. This level of technology integration is called:
A. Entry-active
B. Adoption-active
C. Infusion-active
D. Transformation-active
RATIONALIZATION:
Active Learning Adoption Level – conventional or procedural use of tools
Students: Students are using technology in conventional ways and the locus of
control is on the teacher.
Teacher: The teacher controls the type of technology and how it is used. The
teacher may be pacing the students through a project, making sure that they
complete each step in the same sequence with the same tool. Although the students
are more active than students at the Entry level in their use of technology, the
teacher strongly regulates activities.
Setting: Setting is arranged for direct instruction and individual seat work. The
students may have very limited and regulated access to the technology resources.
