(Module in Arts)

Preface The start of 2020 shocked us with series of unexpected events, for one, this pandemic happened.

This situation has turned our lives upside down and is restricting us on doing things that we normally

do. The world then gave birth to what we call now “The New Normal”.

Education system is not exempted to this. Because we care, the Philippine School Doha decided

to shift from traditional classroom to flexible learning method. Online lessons with the teacher and

self-learning modules will be provided to ensure that you will still get the education that you need. I

know art, for sure, makes you wonder if it is possible to be taught effectively on this method. Do not

worry. As your art teacher, I will still make you gain the most essential learning competencies required

for you as a Grade 8 student of Art Education.

In this set of modules that I have prepared, you will be learning about Asian Arts. You will discover

the different art forms of the different countries in Asia – sculpture, architecture, traditional

attire, arts and crafts, festivals and theater. Also, you will be introduced to famous arts and will be able

to analyze them in terms of their characteristics, visual elements and principles, processes and

concepts, and how factors like culture, religion, geography and biodiversity affect the development

of their arts. You will also have the opportunity to try different art activities to help you understand

the lessons better, showcase your talent, and see art as a possible career opportunity.

Every quarter, you will be receiving one module that you need to study and accomplish on your

own flexible schedule, within the given time frame. Each module consists of (a) learning objectives,

that state what competencies you will be gaining for the whole quarter; (b) learning through, that

discusses the lessons; (c) learning engagement, that will test your learned knowledge on the lesson;

(d) reinforcement, that will strengthen what you have learned by answering textbook activities; (e)

learning output, that will let you apply your understanding on the lesson; and (f) learning outcome,

that will serve as the final art activity which will define what you’ll become after each module.

It will be a lot of adjustments. But with our cooperation, the support of your parents and your

willingness to learn, nothing is impossible. Let us embrace this “new normal” with a positive

mindset. Just like how, at first, some of you thought art is impossible – but you made possible as

seen in the artworks you created in art classes for several years – online learning is also possible! No

prior expertise is required, just passion!

The Role of Parents The School-Home or Parent-Teacher partnership is very vital in the students’

academic achievement and success in education. Parents play an important role in

their children’s attitudes about learning and support learning at home. This

partnership is an important factor to help students reach their maximum potential. As

we shift to a new paradigm of the online teaching-learning process, we believe that

educating students cannot be achieved by teachers’ efforts alone. Parents’

involvement in the education of their children is essential. Thus, parents are

encouraged to play the following roles to supplement that of the teachers’.

• Setting up parental controls for a safe and worry-free screen time of their

children

• Providing physical and technical support in setting up the children’s learning

station at home, checking internet connection and any laptop malfunction

• Providing a conducive place for their children to work during live lessons, with

good lighting, quiet and comfortable venue for learning

• Providing necessary school materials/equipment needed as required by the

subject teachers for their children’s project/ output/ performances/ activities

• Making sure that their children are dressed appropriately (school uniform) while

participating in live lessons

• Establishing routines/ schedule and house rules in online (synchronous) and

offline learning (asynchronous)

• Monitoring the conduct of proper behavior of their children during live

lessons(synchronous)

• Ensuring that the child is on task within the given schedule

• Monitoring the children’s work constantly by browsing the module or logging

on to the PSD e-desk /learning portal

• Monitoring their children’s progress in school regularly, by constantly

checking their work through browsing the module and logging on to the PSD

e-desk portal and making sure that the homework/ assigned activities are done

• Motivating their children to do their best in everything that they do by giving

commendations on their achievements and encouraging them to work

independently

• Maintaining harmonious parent-teacher relationship and attending scheduled

parent-teacher conferences and other important school meetings

• Reading communication sent by the school and accomplishing the required

response for each letter

• Answering the school’s online survey and correspondence as honestly and

promptly as possible

• Communicating clarifications or issues with the teacher within the official work

hours



5

• Keeping in touch with the teachers to keep themselves up-to-date with their

children’s progress

• Raising issues and concerns through the proper forum

• Complying with the school policies on discipline and integrity

• Following protocols set by the various school offices in transacting academic

concerns, payments, and other school-related matters

• Maintaining a happy disposition to create a safe space for their children where

they can lay out all their issues or concerns that are bothering them to treat

their parents as their friends

• Coaching/ helping students to build good habits and develop skills in good

time management

• Looking for ways to inspire their children to avoid stress and discomfort of

performing the task

to a task and will do it accordingly. A member who is not participating can be reported to the teacher and

he/she will make his/her own learning output separately.

your origami outputs will be utilized as props for the Learning Outcome (see next page). You

may google for origami patterns that you think you can do. Decide on the types of pattern

(animals, flowers, stars, etc.) that your group will focus on. Each of the members will make one

origami output.

2. Make your origami. Each member will work on his/her own origami, in accordance to the

group’s decided concept. Any kinds of paper can be used: colored papers, magazines, origami

papers, etc. Just make sure that it will work on your pattern. Submit in E-desk an Art Folio

layout, with Critique Box (refer to the example below), of all the members’ works. Wait

for further instruction.

group’s concept. You should plan on how to present it, prepare visual aids and assign people to do it. You may use PowerPoint, Canva or any other presentation tool that you are familiar with.

Show your work and introduce who made each part. All groups will present in one meeting (to

be scheduled by the teacher) so make the presentation very short but creative 3-4 minutes will

do.

Virtual Classroom Policies To ensure a positive and productive learning environment, all students must adhere to

Synchronous Learning

1. Students must be well prepared in going to the online class. They must be in

the school-provided online learning platform on time or 5 minutes before the

scheduled class.

2. Login credentials must not be shared. Sharing of login information violates

other students' and teachers' rights to confidentiality and could allow class

participation by unauthorized persons and/or lead to disruptive behaviors that

detract from a productive and positive learning environment. Students must not

share their personally identifiable information (class link, link given by the

teachers, downloaded activities) to other people.

3. Students must make sure that their computer’s audio, video, and internet

connectivity are working before the start of classes.

4. Students must immediately notify the teacher in case untoward incidents

happen (power failure, laptop malfunction, connectivity problem, etc.)

5. Students are required to have an appropriate place (good lighting, quiet, with

sessions to ensure a constant connection with the teacher and classmates.
