The Philippine STEAM Education through the Lens of TPACK framework
Synopsis
The Philippine effort towards the Fourth Industrial Revolution era (FIRe) foresees STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Agri-Fisheries/Arts, Mathematics) professionals to be at the forefront. This IR4.0 phenomenon created a disruptive transition towards Education 4.0 to improve country metrics such as global innovation index (GII), research and development, and low quality of tertiary education leading to skills-job mismatch (Licuanan, 2017). However, a minority of data and studies focus on STEAM education in the country from which to source information for policies and programs that will alleviate the Philippine STEAM Education, Thus, this brief reports the pursuit to view, and model the Philippine STEAM Education through the lens of TPACK (Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge) framework.
