What is a Daily Lesson Log (DLL)?
A Daily Lesson Log (DLL) is a structured guide that helps teachers organize and deliver their lessons effectively. It outlines the objectives, instructional strategies, resources and evaluation methods for a specific day. A well-prepared DLL ensures that learning remains student-centered and dynamic, catering to diverse needs and learning styles. See Kindergarten Quarter 3 Matatag Daily Lesson Log (DLL).
Lesson planning is a critical part of teaching because it structures the curriculum into meaningful and manageable segments. The third dimension of the curriculum, which focuses on modes of learning offers valuable insights into designing effective lesson plans. According to Wragg’s model, learning modes such as theoretical, concrete, reflective and active learning must be integrated into lesson planning. By doing so, teachers can create a balanced approach that addresses different aspects of student development.
For instance, theoretical learning in a DLL might involve abstract conceptualization like explaining the principles behind Newton’s laws in physics. This method appeals to students who prefer systematic thinking. Concrete learning, on the other hand could include hands-on activities such as science experiments or field trips allowing students to experience concepts directly. Reflective learning encourages students to analyze and interpret their experiences such as writing journal entries about what they learned in a lesson. Lastly, active learning fosters engagement through tasks like group projects or role-playing, enabling students to apply their knowledge in practical situations.
Incorporating these modes of learning into a DLL ensures that all channels in the curriculum model are addressed. This approach not only meets educational goals but also nurtures critical thinking and problem-solving skills. It aligns with David Kolb’s experiential learning theory which advocates a holistic cycle of learning. By thoughtfully integrating these strategies, teachers can maximize student engagement and ensure meaningful learning experiences.
A DLL is more than a schedule. It is a tool for crafting an inclusive and dynamic classroom environment. With effective planning, it bridges the gap between curriculum goals and student learning, creating a foundation for lifelong education.
