teaching innovation and strategies training 

Recent results from the Trends in the International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) and Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) have shown inadequate learning of Filipino students specifically in the sciences, mathematics and language. Moreover, the rapid adaption of Industry 4.0 poses tidal shifts in the educational landscape in-order to adapt to its ever-evolving opportunities and challenges. The institutionalization of ten (10) innovation laboratories by the Department of Education - Iligan City Division is a sound strategy and a valuable investment in attacking the two challenges posted above. This program seeks to help DepEd Iligan to make the innovation laboratories functional and efficient by training teachers and stakeholders in using properly their facilities. Lastly, the program will create a “hub” where the products/protocols/learnings of the different laboratories can be shared leading to a faster rate of innovation absorbance and creation.

To support the Department of Education - Iligan City Division in harnessing the full potential of their recently instituted 10 Innovation Laboratories.
