Mother Tongue-Based Multilingual Education (MTB-MLE)

Mother Tongue-Based Multilingual Education (MTB-MLE)
The English Language has been a big part in history since the American
regime. Americans introduced education and English has been a part of the
classroom experience since then. But considering the many different cultural
minorities and languages we have nationwide, it has been a proposal by the
educators to use the child’s first language and have a basic experience with it
that would provide them a firm foundation for an education in Filipino and
English which are the two major languages of education in the Philippines.
The use of the mother tongue language can attract the pupils to listen to
the discussion, especially orally, for most young school children can’t understand
and comprehend the foreign or English language used for teaching at their
young age. Because the percentage in our population of pupils who are using the
English Language as their form of conversation is minimal, teachers need to use
the native tongue first as a medium of instruction among younger learners.
It is vital that children begin their education in a language they

understand. In the video presentation we watched during the BEC class, studies
were conducted in different countries in Asia and showed that the use of
mother tongue as medium of instruction is the most effective tool to use in
order to reach the maximum learning competencies of the pupils. The main
purpose of Mother Tongue Based Multilingual Education (MTB-MLE) is that
children must be able to speak local languages before learning a foreign
language so that learning can be simple, easier, and effective. It is believed
that children learn better if they understand the language the teacher is using
in the class for they can learn better in this way, so I agree to educators who
are on the side of MTB-MLE.
Research - Based Teaching and Learning in the 21st
Century
Research-based Teaching means that the learners, teachers and the

curriculum apply research- based approach in the learning- teaching process with
an open outcome. The demands of the 21st century are solving problems flexibly,
thinking critically and creatively, using knowledge and skills in new situations,
collaboration and communication skills and technology literacy.
In this topic I have learned the nine categories of instructional strategies
namely: setting objectives and providing feedback which provide students with a
direction for learning and information about how well they are performing relative
to a particular learning objective so they can improve their
performance; reinforcing effort and providing recognition where it enhance
students’ understanding of the relationship between effort and achievement by
addressing students’ attitudes and beliefs about learning and provide students with
abstract tokens of recognition or praise for their accomplishments related to the
attainment of a goal; cooperative learning that provides students with
opportunities to interact with one another in ways that enable their learning; cues,
questions and advance organizers enhance students’ ability to retrieve, use and
organize what they already know about the topic; non-linguistic representation
that Enhance student’s ability to represent and elaborate on knowledge using
mental images; summarizing and note taking enhance students ability to synthesize
information and organize it in a way that captures the main idea and supporting
details; assigning homework and providing practice that extend the learning
opportunities for students to practice, review and apply knowledge and enhance
student’s ability to reach the expected level of proficiency for a skill or
process; identifying similarities and difference thatenhance students’
understanding of and ability to use knowledge by engaging them in a mental
processes that involve identifying ways in which items are alike and
objectives; generating and testing hypotheses wherein it enhance students’
understanding of and ability to use knowledge by engaging them in a mental
processes that involve making and testing hypotheses.
I will apply this by using the nine instructional strategies and as a future
teacher I ensure mastery by seeing to it that he/she creates a positive learning
atmosphere develops through understanding of the lesson not only memory or
recall and that I will give opportunities to students to extend and apply their
learning to help students learn for mastery.
Outcome-Based Education
OBE is the clarity of the lesson which the teacher should possess. I’ve
learned that Outcomes-Based Education focusing and organizing everything in
an educational system around what is essential for all students to be able to do
successfully at the end of their learning experiences. This means starting with
a clear picture of what is important for students to be able to do, then
organizing the curriculum, instruction and assessment to make sure this learning
ultimately happens (Spady, 1994). I’ve also learned that OBE assess the
student’s growth and competency in relation to these outcomes.
OBE moves from subject-specific outcomes and cross discipline outcomes
to long-term, cross-curricular outcomes that are directly related to students’
future life roles. Performance assessment brings testing methods more in line
with instruction. Assessment should approximate closely what it is students
should know and be able to do. OBE emphasizes the performance assessment it
should assess higher level cognitive skills rather than narrow and lower level
discreet skills. Learning OBE is enhancing every teacher/students to think
critically, and perform due to their capacity. OBE enhances the curriculum it
serves as the guide to every teacher, it is an education that is anchored and
focus on outcomes.
This lesson, gives us an overview about on how to deal with the
Curriculums goals and aims, I also learned that in OBE it helps you to decides on
what are your strategies and methodologies in order to achieve that possible
outcome.
We can apply Outcomes-Based Education (OBE) trough teaching in
different curriculum, it can help us future teacher to achieve our goals, aims
and objectives. We can apply OBE to real life situation that can help us
enhanced our learning process. We can now appertain Outcomes-based
Education in the process of designing program curriculum, the outcomes of the
learning are emphasized and pre- determined. OBE is expected from the
learning after the students have graduated in order to equip them with the
necessary skills and capabilities before they enter the work place. Then go
backward with: curriculum design, program outcomes and course outcomes,
development of instructions, delivery modes appropriate assessments
methodologies.
Learning and applying OBE enrich our capabilities to attain our goals and
aims. I learned that OBE is one factor that supports every curriculum to be
implemented to obtain the main objectives. Applying it, refers to the real world
scenario, it serves as the backbone of our objectives to achieve our goal.
