aricel answers the manager with the four steps. Table 1 shows the duty schedule on the wall of the store in Tarlac City, Tarlac. Table 1. Duty schedule WorkerShift startShift endAileen6:00 AM2:00 PMBoy2:00 PM10:00 PMRosa10:00 PM6:00 AM
Can we further improve this example? Since the question asks, “What time does Boy start today?”, the duty schedule should include the relevant dates or days, in addition to the shift start and end times. This will provide a clear basis for determining which schedule applies to “today.”

The four steps
I added some suggestions, but please feel free to refine them further. The four-step process is helpful because it provides clear guidance on how scanning can be done. However, the steps may still be enhanced to make them more general and applicable to different types of texts, document formats, and contexts.

Read straight across. The fact sits beside the word, in the same row.
Can we make this more general and encompassing? Because not all the time the fact sits beside the word in the same row.
-
Find the word. Move your eyes down the page until you see the matching word.
Suggested improvement for consideration:
Find the word or Look for a clue. Scan for a matching name, word, heading, label, or symbol.
-
Know the word you are looking for. Listen to the question. Is the fact a name, a time, a date, or a peso (₱) amount?
Suggested improvement for consideration:
Identify the information being requested. Listen to the question. Decide whether you need a name, date, time, place, or amount.
-
Finding one fact fast
Would it be more appropriate and inclusive to use the term “information” instead of “fact” throughout the material? Although the competency is titled Locate a Single Fact in a Document, the objective refers to locating one piece of named information.
This terminology also aligns more closely with the LPF core skill: selects relevant information from a single, familiar source.
For consideration please.

It is called scanning — moving your eyes quickly over a document to look for one thing. You do not read every word. You look only for the word that matches what you need
This statement is too absolute and may confuse learners by suggesting that scanning only involves looking for an exact matching word. In many cases, learners may need to look for related clues, such as a heading, label, name, date, symbol, or nearby information, rather than an identical word.

That near-miss on Aileen's row is the most common slip on any table. Eyes drift one row up or down when reading is rusty — that is rust, not inability. Your finger keeps the row straight.
same in my previous comment about "rusty"

A sign on the shop door
Provide different sets of examples for the video to reinforce understanding.

Q1. A sign shows a red circle with a red line across a lit cigarette. What does it tell you?
Provide different sets of examples for the content and quick practice activities to reinforce understanding. Same comment applies to other quick practice

A common trap is to read a "do not" sign as a "you may" sign. If your reading is rusty, that mix-up is normal — check the red line first. A red line across a picture always means the action is not allowed.
The phrase “if your reading is rusty” may sound judgmental or demeaning because it suggests that the learner’s reading ability has deteriorated. It may also embarrass learners with literacy difficulties.

Rosario cooks at a carinderia (a small eatery) in Pagadian City. Her time card records her shift. Table 2 shows the card after she fills it in. Table 2. Rosario's time card FieldEntryNameRosario BelarminoDateJune 5Time in8:00 AMTime out5:00 PMHours worked8 Here is how Rosario fills it in: She starts cooking at 8:00 in the morning. "Time in" means the start time, so 8:00 AM goes there.She leaves at 5:00 in the afternoon. "Time out" means the leaving time, so 5:00 PM goes there."Hours worked" asks for a count of hours, not a clock time. From 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM is 9 hours. She takes a 1-hour meal break, so she writes 8.
The scenarios we use should reflect actual or closely comparable workplace practices. “Time in” is typically recorded when the worker arrives and logs in through the attendance system or logbook, not when the worker begins cooking or performing assigned tasks. Improve the sample scenarios to avoid inaccurate or misleading representations of workplace procedures.

Signs and labels that warn you Many signs and labels warn you about danger. Each one carries one clear message. Table 2 shows three warnings you will see often. Table 2. Common warning signs and labels Sign or labelWhat it meansWET FLOORThe floor is slippery. Walk with care.NO ENTRYDo not go in.FLAMMABLEThis can catch fire. Keep it away from fire and heat.
Present the content through images or illustrations rather than text alone. Include more than three examples, where applicable, to provide learners with a wider range of samples.

Recommended Delivery
While it was explained that there are limitations on the types of tests or assessments that can be administered, it is important that the following skills are still demonstrated through appropriate exercises. If there are creative ways to use multiple-choice questions or other available assessment formats to assess these skills, these would be highly appreciated: * L5 — performing or sequencing written procedures; * L6 — completing a task using written materials; * L7 — completing workplace forms; * L8 — writing a short note; * L10 — organizing information from different sections of a document; * L11 — checking and correcting completed work; * L12 — asking for clarification through a simulated dialogue or role-play; and * L13 — producing a workplace message or notice.

Fact vs. opinion: a short workplace note that mixes factual statements (times, counts, item names that can be checked against a source)
L11 addresses accuracy, correctness, relevance, and the difference between fact and opinion. However, the module does not sufficiently teach learners how to determine whether a source is credible.
The module should include simple source-checking criteria, such as: who issued the information; whether the source is official or authorized; whether the information is current; whether it applies to the learner’s task or workplace; and whether it is consistent with another authorized workplace document.
