    Introduction

    Science education is essential for fostering innovation, critical thinking, and


    technological advancements, shaping the future of any nation. In the Philippines, it plays a vital
    role in developing student’s skills, preparing them for science-related careers, and contributing
    to national growth. This presentation examines the structure of science education in basic and
    tertiary levels, government initiatives, and the role of specialized science schools. By analyzing
    these factors, we can better understand how to build a scientifically literate society and address
    the challenges of an evolving world, paving the way for national progress.

    Objectives
    a) Explore and comprehend the fundamental concepts of science education.
    b) Analyze the role of science education at both basic and tertiary levels.
    c) Investigate government interventions that support and enhance science
    d) Explore science schools in the Philippines.

    Discussion
    Science education emphasizes the interconnectedness between science, technology, and
    society. This approach helps individuals understand how scientific advancements influence daily
    life, technological progress, and societal change. By studying these interactions, learners can
    become critical thinkers and more informed citizens who are aware of how science impacts
    decision-making and policy.

     Science Education – focuses on teaching, learning, and understanding science.


     Teaching Science – involves models which help educators effectively teach scientific
    concepts.
     Learning Science – helping students understand and develop a love for science.
     Understanding Science – build and use science-process skills.

    Science Education in Basic Education: teaching and learning of fundamental scientific concepts,
    skills, and knowledge during primary to lower secondary levels.

    Science Education in Tertiary Education: focuses on the advanced study of scientific principles,
    research methodologies, and specialized knowledge in various scientific fields.

    Government Intervention: actions and policies implemented by government to enhance,


    regulate and support science education at various educational levels. This can include:

     Department of Education (DepEd): responsible for developing the curriculum for basic
    education, including primary to secondary levels.
     Commission on Higher Education (CHED): supports the tertiary education by offering
    scholarships and resources to universities and colleges.
     Department of Science and Technology (DOST): collaborates with educational
    institutions to foster science and innovation.
     K-12 Science Curriculum: prepares students for real-world challenges and fosters a
    greater interest in pursuing careers in STEM fields.
     Commission on Higher Education (CHED): supports the tertiary education and offers
    scholarships and resources to universities and colleges.

    Science Schools in the Philippines: these are the schools recognized as science-focused
    institutions, which aim to foster a strong foundation in scientific principles:

     Manila Science High School: the first science high school in the Philippines.
     Quezon City Regional Science High School: turned into a regional science high school
    for the National Capital Region (NCR) in 1999.
     Philippine Science High School System: a government program for gifted students in
    the Philippines.
     Special Science Elementary Schools Project: began in June 2007.
     Central Visayan Institute Foundation: takes pride in its Research Center for Theoretical
    Physics (RCTP) established in 1992.
