LESSON 2: ORGANIZING YOUR LEARNING ACTION CELL (LAC)
ACTIVITY 1. Begin by refreshing your memory on the Learning Action Cell. Read
DepEd Order No. 35 s. 2016 titled “The Learning Action Cell as the K to 12 Basic

following questions. Write your responses and any other ideas and reflections in
your Study Notebook.

 To improve the teaching-learning process to improve learning among
students
 To nurture successful teachers
 To enable teachers to support each other to continuously improve
their content and pedagogical knowledge, practice, skills, and
attitudes

with the current trend of learning process, and diagnosing gaps and
strengths of learners among others.
2. The instruments used are usually complex to be able to measure a set of
skills and abilities. This might give confusion and misperception if not

not more than 15 members each. Get in touch with your designated Coach or LAC

2. During this meeting, decide on your groupings and designate one LAC
Facilitator and one LAC Leader per LAC.
3. Note the following in forming your LACs:
• LACs should be composed of teachers. Discuss your preferred LAC
composition with your assigned Instructional Coach (this will be a district
or division supervisor assigned to your LAC).
• After forming your respective LACs, there should a LAC Leader assigned to
you from among the following school members:
- Master Teachers
- Head Teacher/Department Head
- Senior or seasoned teachers who have shown competence,
potential to lead, or subject expertise to lead the LAC.
