Transforming learning and teaching towards humanizing learners' life.

Our Social Impact Challenge

Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA): In 2018, Philippines scored lowest in Reading and second lowest in Mathematics and Science among the 79 participating countries. 
Check out the country report on the Philippines. https://www.oecd.org/pisa/publications/PISA2018_CN_PHL.pdf

What are some of the findings?

 

  • 68% of 15-year-olds took the test
  • Socio-economically advantaged students outperformed disadvantaged students in reading by 88 score points in the Philippines
  • Gender gap in reading in favor of girls (27 score points)
  • 65% of students reported being bullied at least a few times a month
  • Girls expressed greater fear of failure than boys
  • Only 31% of students hold a growth mindset. 

 

How are these findings explained?

Need for text, print, digital materials and internet; need for teacher modeling, shared practice towards independent practice; need to discern the credibility of a text .
Perez (President, Reading Association of the Philippines) 

High literary rate (98%) in the Philippines; BUT low in functional literacy (Reading, Writing, Arithmetic plus low ability to follow written and verbal instructions to accomplish given tasks and solve problems and to proceed to more complex problem-solving.)

Our Social Impact Ambition

Vision

Transforming learning and teaching towards humanizing learners' life.

Mission

Advancing digital capabilities for all Filipino educators and learners.

iLEARN, iCREATE, iSHARE: Digital Capabilities Framework

The iLEARN, iCREATE, iSHARE: a digital capabilities framework for Philippine educators provides the scaffolding for Kaisipan’s learning and teaching (L&T) approach.  Our mission is digital capabilities for all educators. We define digital capabilities as a set of cognitive, technical, and humanizing competencies to use information and communication technologies (ICTs) to iLEARN, iCREATE, iSHARE. 


• Cognitive competencies are mental competencies to acquire, interpret, and extrapolate knowledge, thoughts, and experience. 

• Technical competencies go beyond office productivity to digital skills required of 21st-century teachers, including use of synchronous and asynchronous tools for L&T.

• Humanizing competencies include social-emotional learning (managing emotions, working with others, and achieving goals), developing a digital growth mindset, and integrating values in ICT education. 

Our vision and mission will contribute to:

DEPEd's quality of learning outcomes.
