Pre-spanish Philippines

We have Our own culture and traditions before Spaniards came, in terms of scientific knowledge we
already know how to observe and plants crops for food, the process of domestication and food
production. In terms of technology we have the knowledge in building house and irrigations houses and
developing tools, we know how to trade with nearby counties like China, Indonesia and Japan.

Spanish Colonizers

They brought their own culture and practices, they establish schools for boys and girls, the beginning of
the formal science and technology known as the school of science and technology. A life became
modernized because we adopt the western technology. They initiate the galleon trading, one of the
important influence is the catholic doctrines and practices.

 inculturation or mix culture because of the different colonizers


 limited schools for girls
 pinatayo nila ang UST at Ateneo Municipal de Manila

American Colonizers

They influence the development of science and technology in the Philippines, they establish public
education system, improve the engineering works and help conditions of the people by putting up public
hospitals. They also improve the transportation and communication system, they put up both public and
private schools-thomasides professor.

 Pinatayo nila ang University of the Philippines, they encourage modern research in this
university.
 Protestant church mission religion, they have missions in different places in the country.

Internal influences – different scientific ways, using utilizing technology, simple machines for the sake of:

 Survival
 Culture
 Economic Activities

External influences – common information and knowledge

 Foreign Colonizers
 Trades with Foreign Countries
 International Economic Demands

-development of science and technology in the Philippines.

Government policies
The NRCP clustered these policies into four

1. Social Sciences, Humanities, Education, International Policies and Governance - to integrate


ASEAN awareness in basic education without adding the curriculum.
2. Physics, Engineering and Industrial Research, Earth and Space Sciences, and Mathematics
3. Medical, Chemical and Pharmaceutical Sciences
4. Biological Sciences, Agriculture and Foresty

Projects from DOST

 Providing funds for basic research and patents related to science and technology.
 Providing scholarships for undergraduate and graduate studies of students in the field of science
and technology
 Establishing more branches of the Philippine Science High School System for training young
Filipinos in the field of science and technology
 Creating science and technology parks to encourage academe and industry partnerships
 Balik Scientist Program to encourage Filipino scientists abroad to come home and work in the
Philippines
 Developing science and technology parks in academic campuses to encourage academe and
industry partnerships
 The establish of the National Science Complex and National Engineering Complex within the
University of the Philippines campus in Diliman.

Various research and projects that the country is looking forward to are the

 Use of alternative and safe energy


 Harnessing mineral resources
 Finding cure for various disease and illness
 Climate change global warming
 Increasing food production
 Preservation of natural disasters and calamities
 Infrastructure development
 The Philippine Congress has also created various laws related to science and technology
 These laws serve as a legal framework for science and technology in the country
 Theses laws vary to different themes such as: conversation, health-related, technology-building
and supporting basic research
 Some laws and policies are in line with international treaties such as the United Nations (UN),
United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), Association of
Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and other international agencies

Science education – focuses on teaching, learning and understanding science.

- developing ways on how to effectively teach science, use theories to explore these
different theories and models, to help teacher teach scientific concept and process effectively

Science education in basic and tertiary education

in basic education science help students learn important concepts that are related to everyday life
including important skills such as process skills critical thinking skills and life skills that are needed in
coping up with daily life activities.

Develop strong foundation in studying science and for considering science related careers in the future
