School: General Information and Academic Administration


1.1 School Profile
          Pampanga State Agricultural University is a newly-converted university by virtue of Republic Act No. 10605 signed on June 11, 2013 by the President of the Republic of the Philippines, BENIGNO SIMEON COJUANCO AQUINO III, and declared by CHED fully compliant with all the requirements for a university.  Started as  an  institution of higher learning fully chartered in 1974 by virtue of Republic Act No. 4576, “An Act Converting the Pampanga National Agricultural School in Magalang, Pampanga into Pampanga Agricultural College (PAC)”, and complemented by Republic Act No. 8292 also known as the “Higher Education Modernization Act of 1997”, PSAU is mandated to offer agriculture and allied fields. It operates a single campus, which lies at the western slope of the majestic Mt. Arayat in the municipality of Magalang, Pampanga. It is about 15 kilometers east of Angeles City. 
          The University started as an agricultural experiment station known as “Estacion Pecuaria” in 1885, and was later renamed, “La Granja Modelo de Magalang.” Then it became Magalang Farm School, but was closed in 1898 due to revolution. It resumed operations in 1918 with Frank E. Ebbesen as the first American Principal through the efforts of Governor Honorio Ventura and Kilmer O. Moe. In 1921, the school began to offer curricula in both the intermediate and secondary levels. 
          In 1938, the Philippine legislature passed Commonwealth Act 313 renaming Magalang Farm School to PNAS. Again, the school was closed in 1941 on account of the Second World War. It was re-opened in 1945 only to be closed once more (in August 1946) because of the HUK Rebellion. Finally, classes resumed in 1955 when peace had been restored. 
          Although PNAS was converted into PAC in 1965 by virtue of Republic Act No. 4576, the said law was not fully implemented during that year since the school was only offering secondary agriculture curriculum. Similarly, it underwent transition state from 1966-1969 under the supervision of the Bureau of Public School, the period when it actually started offering associate and bachelor programs of technical agriculture. Its final state to becoming a chartered state college was supervised by the Bureau of Vocational Education by virtue of RA 3742 from 1969 to1974.   

MANDATE
          The University shall primarily provide advanced education, higher technological, professional instruction and training in the fields of agriculture arts and sciences, teacher education, industrial technology and engineering, information technology, business management and accountancy, non-traditional courses and other relevant fields of study. It shall also undertake research, extension services and production activities in support of the development of the Province of Pampanga and provide progressive leadership in its areas of specialization (Sec. 2, RA 10605).

Teaching Practice

  1. Procedures of Teaching           First, give apperception and motivation to students about the lessons that I will give so that they attract the attention of students to know more deeply. Then, raise questions so students are more active. They answered and were rewarded. Formed a discussion group and gave students the freedom to ask questions. After that, students can draw conclusions and the teacher takes the results of evaluations from quizzes or exercises. 2. Time Management and Organizing Activities This photo when I explain the general explanation           In 1 week, I have 8 hours to teach. Each meeting has 2 hours of teaching time. I took the first hour to give apperception, motivation and a general description of the material. The next 1 hour I give material that is in the slideshow and give time to students to ask questions and complete the exercise. The discussion process took place when I was displaying a powerpoint and I watched them have something about

Summary and Suggestion

1. Purpose of Practicum           At the end of the lesson, the student should be able to: Define events Types of events Find the probability of the events Define probability of compound events Difference probability of dependent and independent Define conditional probability 2. Procedures of Practicum           When we arrived at school, we attended the flag ceremony and there was a special welcome to us. Then, we meet the President of PSAU, the principal, teachers, staff and students. We are welcomed. Not to forget, we were introduced to our respective cooperating teachers. I will be accompanied by Mam Kreez.           Mam Kreez is a mathematics teacher. Mam Kreez is a very kind teacher. She led me to the class he was going to teach. Introducing me to students. Mam Kreez teaches at high school and university. For high school, he has 3 teaching days in a week, which is Monday in 11th grade STEM A, Wednesday in 11th grade STEM B and Friday in 11th grade STEM A and STEM B

Pedagogical Contents and Teaching Plan

Pedagogical Contents  1. Teaching Methods           Learning methods used in high school are student-centered. The teacher gives questions about learning related to the surrounding environment. Sometimes students don't respond, the teacher must repeat the question and give a little reward for brave students. If students answer correctly, the teacher will answer "absolutely right". The teacher provokes students to ask questions and from the questions, students can describe conclusions from the lesson. 2. Learning Material and Innovation            Providing innovation to students is adjusted to the curriculum and material in the book. The teacher forms a discussion group to answer questions by means of discussion. To attract attention, the teacher displays several slideshows from Powerpoint, pictures, videos and writes light explanations on the board so that students understand more easily. 3. Sources of Learning and Technology           The main sourc
