GLOBE Telecom and the National Teachers College have teamed up for the Globe IT Academy program this school year, which aims to better equip teachers in the delivery of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics education, or STEM.
To get things running, Globe and NTC carried out in August a “train-the-trainers” certification workshop on progressive approaches to STEM delivery in the classroom. As main participant for the pilot launch, the college selected educators who will be specializing in math and science for both K-12 and college levels.
“While there are [many highly-skilled and committed teachers in the country, their upskilling] to take on the modalities of learning should be addressed,” said Yoly Crisanto, Globe’s chief sustainability and corporate communications officer. “With today’s digital environment, students must be encouraged to be creative and engaged. This can be done if teachers are empowered with more technical teaching resources.
The recent workshop covered lessons on futures-thinking, an approach to strategic planning and design, and the use of socioemotional learning as a teaching and learning tool to nurture critical thinking, better self-awareness, and building on many other interpersonal skills.
