III. LEARNING EXPERIENCES (Deductive method) Teacher’s Activity Students’ Activity

A. Statement of the Problem
How did we define propositions last meeting? Will you define it for us Grace? We defined propositions last meeting as an expression in words of an act of judgment.
You have a sharp memory, Grace
Proposition are an expression in words of an act of judgment.

B. Statement of Generalization
For today we are going to talk about two classes of proposition. These are Proposition of fact and Proposition of policy.

Have you heard of these? No yet Sir
Okay. Proposition of fact is one that is concerned with the truth or falsity of an act of judgment.
It aims at belief. It settles the question: “Is this assertion true?”
While, Proposition of policy is one that is concerned with the wisdom or unwisdom, the expediency or inexpediency, of a course of action.
It aims at action. It answers the questions: “Should it be done?” “Should this course of action be followed?”

Will you repeat what I have said about the two classes of propositions Emely? Proposition of fact is a class of proposition in which one that is concerned with the truth or falsity of an act of judgment. It aims at belief. It settles the question: “Is this assertion true?”
While, Proposition of policy is a class of proposition in which one that is concerned with the wisdom or unwisdom, the expediency or inexpediency, of a course of action. It aims at action. It answers the questions: “Should it be done?” “Should this course of action be followed?”
Well said Emely, you are really listening

C. Inference
Look at this example on the board.
Please read the first example, Jenny. “Resolved, That elective city mayors are more efficient than appointive ones.”
Thank you, Jenny.

That is an example of the
Proposition of fact.

Why do you think the example is Proposition of fact, Mariel? Because, it aims at belief. It settles the question under proposition of fact.
What is that question under proposition of fact, Nadine? “Is this assertion true?” Sir
Good observation, Nadine.
Do you understand now the Proposition of fact? Yes Sir
Let us move on to the second example.
Will you please read it for the group
Presca? “Resolved, That the Filipino women should be disfranchised.”
And this an example of Proposition of policy.
Why did I say so, Joyce? Because as we said, Proposition of policy is a class of proposition in which one that is concerned with the wisdom or unwisdom, the expediency or inexpediency, of a course of action. It aims at action.
Thanks, Joyce.

D. Verification
Let us try to analyze two other examples showing this class of proposition.

Kindly read example 1, Queenie “Resolved, That the term of office of the President be six years, without reelection.”
Thank you, Queenie! This is called
Proposition of policy.

Kindly read example 2, Jerome “Resolved, That the Chinese are a menace to our national security.”
Thank you, Jerome! This is called
Proposition of fact.

E. Restatement of Generalization
Is the lesson understood now? Yes Sir.

So, will you differentiate again
Proposition of fact and Proposition of policy, Christa. Proposition of fact states that it aims at belief while Proposition of policy aims at action.
Well said, Christa.

F. Evaluation
Let us try these illustrations on the board, identify which one is Proposition of fact and which one is Proposition of policy.
Also give your reasons why you said so.

Write your answer in a ¼ sheet of paper

Example 1
”Resolved, That The Filipino woman of yesterday was better than the Filipino woman of today.”

Example 2
“Resolved, That Capital punishment should be abolished.”

Example 3
“Resolved, That City mayors should be elected by popular vote.”

Okay, time is up. Submit your paper.
