ENRICHMENT ACTIVITY
Instruction: Research the topic given. Answer the questions. Encode your
answer. * Teacher’s Ethical and Professional Behavior. (50 points)
1. What is expected of a teacher’s behavior? Cite concrete examples.
Good teachers know how to bring out the best in their students, but it’s
not magic and it’s not just about popularity. Here are the behaviors of
teachers use:
Encourage high expectations
Set challenging goals for learning.
Make expectations clear both orally and in writing.
Set consequences for non-completion of work.
Encourage students to write and speak well.
Discuss class progress.
Communicate importance of high academic standards.
Encourage cooperation among students
Ask students to explain difficult concepts to each other.
Inquire into students’ interests and backgrounds.
Encourage students to prepare together for class.
Allow students to critique each other’s work.
Create study groups and project teams.
Emphasize timelines
Expect students to complete assignments promptly.
Estimate and communicate the amount of time to be spent on
tasks.
Encourage rehearsal of oral presentations.
Encourage steady work and sensible time management.
Give prompt feedback
Provide sufficient opportunities for assessment.
Prepare classroom activities that give immediate feedback.
Return graded assignments within one week.
Give detailed evaluations of work starting early in the term.
Give a pre-test at the beginning of the course to assess students’
background in the subject.
Encourage student-instructor contract
Adopt a demeanor that communicate that you are approachable.
Welcome students to drop by your office. Respect diverse talents
and ways of learning.
Encourage student involvement
Use diverse teaching activities. Encourage active learning. Ask
students to present work to the class.
Use simulations and role-playing in class.
Encourage students to challenge course material.
Be sure to make clear that showing disrespect to you or other
students in not appropriate.
2. What does a teacher expect from the community and vice versa?
What is establishing and maintaining community expectations and
agreements about behavior?
Teachers set and maintain community expectations and establish classroom
environments that preserve student’s dignity and autonomy, while allowing
for a productive and safe classroom community. They understand the
difference between the helpful use of boundaries to provide structure and
the oppressive use of power to control. They develop proactive and reactive
systems to establish, maintain, and respond to these expectations and
behaviors in ways that focus on both the community and students’ learning.
Choosing and using expectations and agreements requires discretion
because many common expectations for behavior privilege dominant ways of
being related to race, class, and gender and lead to harmful consequences
for students.
How does establishing and maintaining community expectations and
agreements about behavior advance justice?
Perceptions of students’ behavior, understanding, effort and engagement
occur through the lens of the social identities of teachers and children.
Because of the close relationship between dominant White middle-class
norms and the culture of schooling, the classroom environment and
teacher’s interactions with children often, explicitly or invisibly, limit
opportunities for students who do not share these norms. In contrast, this
practice calls on teachers to manage the classroom environment ways that
keep students in the classroom, make positive, significant differences for
children, and disrupt inequitable patterns that flow.

Task 1. Research on successful school and community partnership in high
performing countries such as Singapore and Canada.
SUCCESSFUL SCHOOL AND COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIP IN SINGAPORE
Project COMPASS (Community and Parents in Support School)
Project TAO Kiddie PAMANA
Parents, students, teachers and policy makers share high positive but
rigorously instrumentalist view of the value of education at the individual
level. Students are generally complaint and classroom orderly.
Singapore’s government had more or less identified the kind of
pedagogical framework it wanted to work towards, and called it “Teach
Less, Learn More”.

Instruction: Perform all the tasks activities given in the Discussion part and
write all your answers on long size writing sheet/s.
The message that I get from the Dean’s Welcome Address is that as
a freshman student, our academic knowledge is insufficient to
fulfill our hungering brains, and we need more. For us who aim to
be teachers, the College of Education can be our home for the four
years of learning. It also means that we must participate in
extracurricular activities that school has organized in order to
practice, employ, and help us grow, develop, and mold ourselves as
future instructors. The college and institution might be a place
where we can transform our ideal future selves and prepare to
work as professional teachers in the future.
3. The Bible says: “You are the salt of the Earth. But if the salt loses its
saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for
anything, except to be thrown and trampled underfoot. You are the light
of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people
light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead, they put it on its stand,
and it gives light to everyone in the house. It the same way, let your light
shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your
Father in heaven.” (Matthew 5:13-16).
Based on this chapter on the teacher as a community leader. How do
these biblical passages apply to the professional teacher?
As a future teacher, how can we be salt and light at work? Jesus said
our light is not necessarily in the witness of our deeds- our “good works”.
In humility and submission to God, we work for right relations, for
merciful actions, and for peace. When we live as people of blessing, we
are salt and light- in the workplace, in our homes, and in our nation.
4. “I don’t hear what you are saying because who you are speaks louder
than what you say.” How does this quote apply to the professional
teacher as a community leader? Discuss.
5. A teacher is fully convinced that her religion is the only true religion, the
only way to salvation. As a result, she proselytes. Can her good intention
of salvation for all justify her proselyting? Why or why not?
LET’S REFLECT
1. The mother of this author was once a public-school teacher. When this
author was in her preschool age, her mother taught in the remote barrios
of the town and so where her mother was assigned the family went along.
This author vividly remembers how her mother was dearly loved by the
community. She was a teacher, counselor and consultant to everyone
who came. She was indeed a missionary. Her transfer to another school
was always an emotional one, a mother crying too. The top it all, the one
most touching etched in my memory was one community leader had a
big rooster. So many wanted to buy that rooster but refused to sell it. On
the eve of our departure, he butchered it for that last evening meal with
them. This author will never forget such act of generosity. In their
poverty these people can give all.

1. Based on this lesson and by means of an acrostic, give qualities or
specific behaviors of good leaders.
4. Two of your teachers are doing very well. Four strongly resist
continuing Professional Development. Two are about to retire and are
simply waiting to retire. To make your school perform, as a school
head, what moves will you take? Explain.
As the School Head, the first thing I would do is fire you as my
Consultant for Educational Improvement. You use loaded and
stereotypical language that implies indifference, incompetence, and
defiance on the part of certain teachers, and a bias on your part.
You fail to provide information relating to age, experience and
tenure status and competence as a teacher, so I will make some
assumptions:
Doing well: No problem here—depending on what “doing well”
means.
Model the way. Set the example 1. Find your voice by clarifying your
personal values.
2. Set the example by aligning
actions with shared values.
Share your vision. Enlist others. 3. Envision the future by imagining
exciting and ennobling activities.
4. Enlist others in a common vision
by appealing to shared aspirations.
Challenge the process. Look for ways 5. Search for opportunities by
to grow. seeking innovative ways to change,
grow and improve.
6. Experiment and take risks by
constantly generating small wins and
learning from mistakes.
Enable others to act. Empower 7. Foster collaboration by promoting
others. cooperative goals and building trust.
8. Strengthen others by sharing
power and discretion.
Encourage the heart. Give positive 9. Recognize contributions by

Abstract
Purpose
Building upon Patterson's servant leadership theory, this study aims to present
an instrument to measure the constructs of this working theory (identified as
agapao love, humanity, altruism, vision, trust, service, and empowerment).
Design/methodology/approach
Specifically, the seven component concepts, as defined by Patterson, were used
to build items for a servant leadership instrument. This study used DeVellis'
“Guidelines in Scale Development” to develop an instrument for Patterson's
new theory of servant leadership. The participants for the study consisted of a
stratified sample taken from the study response data base. The surveys were
created, and administered, using an online survey using surveysuite.
Findings
Three separate data collections were used for the development of this
instrument reducing the 71‐item scale to 42 items yielding five factors:
empowerment, love, humility, trust, and vision.
Research limitations/implications
Recommend that future research include surveys at companies and
organizations that advocate servant leadership concepts. Future research
should include how each gender influences some of these items.
Practical implications
It is the intention that this instrument has the ability to predict or give
measurement to the concepts of Patterson's theory of servant leadership so
that a servant leader can measure his or her effectiveness as a servant leader.
Originality/value
According to the review of the literature, this is the first instrument to measure
five factors on servant leadership.
LET’S REFLECT
What kind of leader am I? What should I do to become an effective leader?

ANALYSIS- LET’S ANALYZE
Share your answers with your group.
1. What problems did Mabuhay Elementary School have?
The problems that Mabuhay Elementary School have is pupil tardiness,
absences, as well as truancy. These are the reasons why they had a very low
Mean Percentage Score (MPS).
2. What did Ms. Ligaya, the school head, do to address the problem?
To address the problem, Ms. Ligaya called on the parents, teachers and leaders
of the community. She asked for their suggestions on how to eradicate or solve
the problem that the school are facing.
3. Could it have been better if she addressed the problem by herself? What
could possibly happen if she did it alone?
In my own opinion, it would not be better if she had addressed the problem
alone because as a school head, she still needs the suggestions or opinions of
others in making a decision specially with regards about the problem of the
school. For whatever actions she will do, it would not only affect her but it
would also have an impact to the teachers, students, parents as well as to the
community.
4. What was the advantage of involving others in addressing the problems?
The advantage of involving others in addressing the problems is that there will
be a greater possibility or chance that the problem will be solved and also it
can create a good relationship between the school and the community.
Knowing that you have the support of the majority, you can be confident that
you will be able to achieve your desired outcome.
5. Wasn’t a directive from the affairs of the Superintendent or Regional
Director the fastest solution to the problems? Why or Why not?
The directive from the affairs of the Superintendent or Regional Director was
not the fastest solution to the problems. I believe that the school heads’
decisions or actions is still the fastest solution for they know what is lacking in
the school and that they know how to cater its needs by proposing solutions to
it and asks the help of the people around them.
