Materials
and Other Learning Sources
For
the materials, the teachers in CLSU Science High School that used English but
still mixed with the Tagalog Language. To provide a learning process in the
classroom, teacher use course syllabus, internet (Book Online) and textbook,
lecture notes/ handout, and PowerPoint presentation. My cooperating teacher
(Sir Marius) always give a handout to the student at the end of the topic, so the
student can learn more at the home because the teacher will give a quiz before they
are moved to the next topics.
