In his presentation, he emphasized the need to align
all aspects of the K to 12 educational system of frameworks
to the articulated goals for student learning. These
include curriculum, instruction, assessment, and teacher
professional development. Moreover, in alignment with the
NISMED’s thrusts on curriculum materials development, he
stressed the importance of age-appropriateness, research
on student learning, and commonly held student ideas.
NISMED served as the host institution of Dr. Molina
from 1 October 2013 to 14 November 2013 (first visit) and
19 January to 4 March 2014 (second visit).
The Balik Scientist Program (BSP) was established
in 1975 to encourage overseas Filipino scientists,
professionals, and technicians to return or reside in the
Philippines, and share their expertise in order to accelerate
the scientific, agro-industrial, and economic development
of the country.
