SKSU Graduating BEED Students undergo Training on Creativity in Teaching with Respect Methodologies

​To diversify the intercultural understanding in education and fulfill explicit basic needs of students, Pasali, once more, launched “Creativity in Teaching with Respect Methodologies Training for K-12 Teachers” last November 4-5, 2016 at Sultan Kudarat State University, Poblacion, Palimbang, Sultan Kudarat. It was participated by 7 Faculty Personnel and 55 Graduating BEED Students of SKSU. 

This two-day training aims for the participants to:

1. Recognize the importance of creativity and critical thinking in education;
   
2. Appreciate the creative techniques and methods that will enrich the learning process in the classroom; and
3. Come up with a sample creative lesson plan in different subjects integrating the Respect methodologies and creative approaches.

​Since the first phase of this training was done last September 2-4, 2016, this time, Pasali spruced up the training by adding topics such as creative lesson plan formulation, elements of artistic expression, integrated Theater Arts such as Creative writing, Creative Sound and Music and even Creative Body movement that supersede the traditional way of teaching. This event was facilitated by Pasali’s Children’s’ Education and Welfare Program Facilitators and co-facilitated by 10 selected previously trained SKSU BEED students (September 2-4, 2016).

Along with this, in view of the fact that the main purpose of this workshop is to embed Respect Education in all aspect of everyday living, a beautifully crafted 45 minute REP’s mobile theatre production co-produced with the expertise of Philippine Educational Theaters Association (PETA) and the Children’s Education and Welfare Program Facilitators was showcased this time entitled “MAGKANAWONG” which showcases actual situations in Mindanao which has been greatly affected by history and has incurred divergence in cultural and tribal views and belief throughout the evolution of generations.  This term was then used to signify ‘equality’ as individuals regardless of the differences. Certainly this workshop transcended on augmenting teachers and soon-to-be teachers’ ingenuity.
