FAPE trainers get ready for INSET 2013
The FAPE trainers – a group of 75 private high school teacher-leaders from different regions – met last Feb. 23-25, 2013 for the third and last stage in the series of training-workshops for trainers/writers in preparation for the in-service training in April and May, 2013.
During the three-day training, the trainers familiarized themselves with the training materials – sample learning modules and teacher’s guides in Math, Science, Araling Panlipunan, English, and Filipino. They also explored and practiced demonstrating the use of Level Up!, the online system of the Open High School Program (OHSP). They focused on assessing and monitoring the students’ performance, with the use of the teacher’s guide and the Level Up! learning analytics.
The meeting of trainers was also a time for them to walk through and talk about the training sessions and agree on the presentation of training content and tasks as well as become oriented on the training guidelines.

FAPE modules writers from different private high schools will talk about unpacking the standards in Araling Panlipunan, English, Filipino, Math, and Science.
