SELF-MASTERY THROUGH WHOLE-BRAIN DEVELOPMENT
RATIONALE
Education envisions an integrated, highly functioning individual capable of managing self, others, and the world in varied, changing situations of life.
Total person development requires self-mastery in the basic functions of navigating life through whole-brain thinking, learning, and doing.
For education to achieve this goal, teachers need to develop the self-mastery skills and whole-brain understanding and capability that we seek students to acquire and develop.
Course Description
This training program equips teachers with knowledge and tools towards transformative whole-brain learning and the development of the 7 self-mastery skills of highly functioning individuals.The 5-day module is an experiential journey into the different parts and functions of the brain and the requirements that would promote: Learning to Think Learning to Do Learning to Feel Learning to Communicate Learning to Intuit Learning to Lead Learning to Be
The HBDI developed by Hermann yielded a brain dominance profile

FORMULATING THE THE EMERGENT THEORY
“Beyond Teaching”
Beyond teaching, becoming an outstanding academic is responding to a sense of higher purpose that cultivates habits of heart and mind that define Personhood and drive the educative Process to the highest degree of effectiveness and proficiency.
Beyond teaching, becoming an outstanding academic is developing students to become their very best selves through mentoring, modeling, and employing the best pedagogical methods in the interdisciplinary fields of Science, Art, and Spirituality to ensure learning effectiveness towards expansion of the mind and the elevation of heart and soul.
(Con’t.)
Becoming an outstanding academic suggests a developmental process way before one becomes a teacher in the early cultivation of a child’s imaginational, intellectual, and language capacities and the development of inner sensibilities through the arts and the humanities.
In young adulthood, it suggests further personality development and confidence building through extra-curricular activities, academic achievement and campus leadership.
At the career level, outstanding academics are characterized by innovation and creation of new knowledge and devote time in furthering the industry through educational leadership and community service.
“Beyond Teaching”
Incident #86.
“After intensive training inside our studio and on "living sets", they're ready and excited to join the professional work force of the motion picture industries. They've been taught to be collaborative; to negotiate rather than compromise; to discern the sheep from the wolves; to protect each other from exploiters and temptations of greed and ambition; to make a difference for the good; to point the camera where their hearts beat; and to respect and love their audiences. Even better, they're eager to share with their audiences, not just what they've learned, but, more importantly, what they've experienced, both good and "bad". For me, it's been a humbling privilege to be a part of their development as storytellers onscreen. We are one another's teachers and students for life!”
Excerpts from interview of a Master Teacher that embody the propositions of Purpose, Personhood, and Practice in the emergent theory “Beyond Teaching:
Implications for Philippine Higher Education
1) Curricular review and reforms in teacher education.
2) Professional in-service training at various levels of teaching proficiency.
3) Admissions criteria for entry level teachers.
4) Evaluation standards for assessing teacher performance and teaching quality
