A. Povedan Education, a two-fold Approach
- Philosophy: Pedro Poveda’s pedagogical underpinnings on Knowledge and Virtue and his vision to uphold human dignity for social transformation.
- Methodology: Personalized Education Pedagogy
It values, emphasizes and highlights:
-
- The holistic formation grounded on the school’s Core Values: Christ-centeredness, Excellence, and Commitment
- The principles in the teaching-learning process: creativity, communication and diversity
- The optimal well-being of the students: appreciating the value of each person; sense of belonging – security – purpose; and joy in learning.
B. School Pedagogy – Personalized Education Program (PEP):
Doing the PEP way in homeschooling mode re-creates the home or anywhere the students are where learning takes place as their classroom. This challenges yet equips each student in responsibly managing the learning process: Individual Work (IW) – Encounter Period/ Consultation- Assessment.
-
- Individual Work (IW)
IW is a research-designed age-appropriate work model, taught at every level and ladderized for progressive advancement. Part of the graded tasks in the RISE modules of the five major subjects, are the IW cards. At the start of every module (equivalent to three to four weeks), subject coaches give an orientation on the module and the IW cards for the module. It is advised that students accomplish the IW cards first to give them an overview of the module and provide inputs they will need to learn the concepts on their own with ease.
- Encounter Periods – Homeroom and Consultation
Encounter periods in the RISE Homeschooling Program (RISE) come in the form of homeroom and consultation sessions. Homeroom period is once a week and may be one-on-one or one-on-many depending on the preference of the students. Consultation period can be scheduled by subject as agreed upon by the student and the coach and can be done at least once per module or once a week at the most.
