All the teachers in this school has the natural propensity and well trained to have good classroom

having the best managing technique teachers .


VISION

adequate and advanced resources with a child-friendly learning environment, producer of globally

Core values

Equality , stewardship and quality of life


Instructions are vividly instructed among the child with special conditions/needs . They are instructed in

a very special way , I cant understand but a little they all clearly interpreted . Instruction s rely through

sign language and symbols that they can only understand .

LEARNERS BEHAVIOR

The very unique behavior of students among the school visited . Various individuals having special

condition are schooling here in different level They are behaving in an peculiar manner .


Best school practice is treating and helping student with impaired hearing and visual ability. They are

helping them restore particularly impaired with hearing ability through what they call auditory

operation and according to them it costs 2 million and two of them are existing in their school, that is

actually a part of their practice. The school is actually shouldering the expenses of the said transplant of

ears and ear parts , They have special gadgets and tools good to cater learners with special capability .


I really love their administration they are doing their best to cater us in order for us to know their ways

and programs about. They are welcoming us with joy and overwhelming approach to us . They even

demonstrate some of their common practice inside the special school . They accept us to have a visit of

their school . Their administration is supportive and I consider the bets in accommodating us . I am

impressed since the heads of the school is actually the one who introduce their school instead of the

teachers . I love them the most .

OTHERS

Again the other best feature in this is the primal; use of sign language , and of being proficient to it .

Connectivity to their learners . Their operation hearing to those having auditory impairment. With best

facilities good or even the best program that aims to cater special child and even help to have a normal

lifestyle as possible .

20/23

Generally one of the best school I commend practicing the best ways and tools used are here . They

have the best program that cater the child that has a unique conditions employed and good

psychological association to their special kids .

Kukusai Daigako Mindanao International College

Areas observed



Facilities are at good condition functioning and still can cater the needs of learners . The facilities are

built /installed with good quality that can be rest assured . They are having such technology that came

obviously more on Japan . they are as well using technology in most of their presentation


They are actually having mini garden despite of the lenient space . And a clean building with wide sky

dome at the top of their structure . It is quite good to visit here since learning institution still conducive

for learning and even it is quite small but tall building still the assurance to learn things out from thepractice f most Filipinos can be learned


They are truly and for sure particular to discipline so I can assure , Japanese school is more on etiquette

whether it is academic o personal . They are good on managing the classroom as well as abiding rules, in

most of the Japanese are particular to such since the field of discipline is what they are usually

accentuating aside from teaching academic concept .


PHILOSOPHY

The college which provides holistic, excellent and quality education to students so they become useful

talent for happy life of the citizens of both countries, and practice and research on Mutual

Supplementary Activity, which admits and helps weak points each other between two countries. The

college gives priority to social service and Japanese Language Education, facilitates exchange between

Philippine and Japan in education, welfare, culture, and information, and cooperates with new activities

of Philippine Nikkei-Jin Kai


21/23


22/23

OTHERS

Other feature is their single building but a compact structure with a very fascinating sky dome of the

international school I realy love the way they used to amalgamate the context of Japanese of the

Philippine curricular practice .

GENERAL IMPRESSION

All In all they have a good Japanese practice of their curriculum here in the Philippines which includes

their administrator and school academic structure . It is another unique school I ever visited during the

Educational tour .

Reflection

Educational tour Adventure

Educational tour is for me an opportunity that opens me to widen my experience, horizon , and

understanding about curricular and institutional standards of other schools that they are implementing

in their respective academic system . The Educational tour brings me a holistic understanding and

realization , how everything is to be followed and understood . Even for just a lenient time trip for me ,I

observe beyond what I expected to see and perceive regarding to the tour conducted. I have learnt a lot

of valuable things from ethical, facility, administration, behavior , program design , system , technology

and other measures and standards that they kept on using . This learning experience of mine is greatly

consider as a portal that opens my eyes to new way of teaching , teaching aspirations and othermechanism that puts learners into advance learning ways , such as their frequent engagement to

technology and highly scientific tools for their learning in order for it to be more advance ,

comprehensive and standardized towards to their prior learning to this contemporary learning system .

It welcomes me to various possibilities that good classroom set up affect the learning psychology

and acquisition of the learners . I realized that each learning institution has technology that they rely on

upon the learning of their students/pupils . I have observed that technology amalgamated to learning

enormously affect them as an academic learner and a lifelong learner as well . It really inspires me and

make me and make me pursue that teaching-learning outcome is merely depending to some

interdependent factors which are the learning tools , materials , interest teaching ways and motivation

etc. such factors aforementioned grow themselves as a learners and as an individual . In different

schools I am actually amazed about their marvelous equipment that directs learning of their

stakeholders . It make me feel at ease to rely instructions and conduct lesson presentations with such

material as a part of my medium of instruction . From that I can say they are truly that advance . Many

things are what I have learned just like our acquaintance to special children whom giving me the

idealism that even themselves have the right to go to school and have proper educations n the

curriculum . Now I can barely conclude that education is for all , that no one should be rejected and

omitted of attaining educational pursuit . Not even in the midst of their disabilities whether physical,

mental, emotional, social etc. I really admire some schools that have been systematized and


23/23

technologized their system that even to the security purpose is being applied to their respective

campuses.

Educational tour gives me a lot of experiences as a teacher to be and as an individual that keeps on

learning , that through a mere observation many thing comes to realization . I have learned as well that

schooling in a city is so hard . It is quite better for me to live and school here in Mati. Teaching according

to one of the teacher in Ateneo Elementary should not be taken as for money /living . You should take it

with full heart and dedication. It really touches my soul towards teaching . I learned new ways on

teaching how instructions are to be conducted . . I feel honored and grateful that such schools

welcome and overwhelm us despite of their being badly busy . I have acquainted various batch mates

and other davaowenyos . It is actually a nice valuable trip that dazzle me to enjoy living in hotel for 2

nights .

From trip It satisfies my learning , experience and acquaintance to various places and people as well as

living Davao proper Many funny and controversial moments were occurring during the educational tour

. In spite of the very systematized mechanism that has been established still there re little trouble occur

I have experienced . Truly educational tour is a great experience for me to hone my knowledge about

the system of other schools , the standards , medium of instructions , facilities , standard on buildingstructures , curricular goals , mission vision and core value s. My skills as well on how to manipulate

things and other things that should be observed in teaching .
