Classroom Activities/Learning
Experiences
The teacher just presented a
short video about the world
and how it works.
The teacher gave us a
problem or scenario and will
ask how it will be solved and
make a best decision of it.
Students should understand
scientific information and
communicate it using
appropriate scientific
language in a variety of
communication modes.

Your Feelings and Insights
I'm interested of knowing
what's happening around the
world 'cause it is very
important for us in academic,
career and safety aspects.
Although it does not directly
affect our daily life, it
inevitably influence our life in
a long-term aspect.
I felt nervous because I was
thinking about how I would
solve it. And we need an
intelligently making a
decisions on what to do, and
this skills to develop situations
to everyday problems.
I had a hard time of doing this
and it is a choices about what
scientific evidence to
communicate when, how, and
to whom can be a reflection.
Yes this is just a title but it is
very difficult to choose
because you will think
carefully if it will really help

5. Appreciate the benefits and
limitations of science and its
applications.
6. Understand the
international nature of
science and the
interdependence of science,
technology, and society.
8. Demonstrate attitudes and
develop values of honesty,
responsibility, and respect for
oneself, for others, and for
the environment.
C. Abstract
Domains of Teaching Science
Studied science and
technology as essential tools
for mitigation and prevention
of natural environment.
Students are encouraged to
engage in issues pertaining to
the impact of science on
everyday life and make
responsible decisions about
how to address such issues.
Encourages behaviors and
attitudes that will contribute
to the development of
students as caring and
responsible individuals and
members of society.
Definition/Examples
Scientific Knowledge refers to
the knowledge that is based
on scientific methods.
Examples:
people's lives.
It has been said that the
challenge of our generation is
the environment.
This is an outlook on science
education that emphasizes
the teaching of scientific and
technological developments
in their cultural, economic,
social and political contexts.
Taking responsibility for our
own learning prepares us for
the unexpected, and for our
future.

The Balik Scientist Program or BSP, is a
program that aims to strengthen the
scientific and technological human
resources of academia, the public, and
private institutions, including local
registered businesses to accelerate the flow
of new technologies in the country.
Project NOAH is the government's basic
disaster prevention and mitigation program
that aims to create a disaster-free
Philippines by providing the tools and
information to mitigate or prevent disasters
caused by natural disasters.
Aghambayan is the first event where DOST
and UP celebrate the combined talents of
their scientists and researchers. The event
aims to raise public awareness of the
contribution of science and technology in
improving the quality of daily life of ordinary
Filipinos.
Diwata-1 also known as PHL-Microsat-1 is a
Philippine microsatellite launched at the
International Space Station (ISS) on March
23, 2016, and transferred to orbit from the
ISS on April 27, 2016. This is the first
microsatellite of the Philippines and the first
satellite built and designed by Filipinos. This

Lesson Synthesis:

1. What defines the quality of science education in the Philippines?

 It consists of six years of elementary education and four years of secondary
education. Science is introduced in Grade 3 through the topic 'Science and Health'. It
continues until Grade 6. At the secondary level science is taught as separate
subjects, a discipline for each level of the year.
2. What are the opportunities and challenges in teaching science in the Philippines?
 It consists of students' scientific questioning skills, values and behaviors, such as
objectivity, curiosity, and honesty and temperament including critical thinking. All of
this is beneficial to the individual student for his or her own personal development,
future career, and life in general. But there are many barriers to science education in
Philippine schools like lack of qualified science teachers, lack of quality books,
inadequate equipment, large classes, lack of support from administrators, and much
more .
