Socio-economic problems of the
Philippine Educational System
Impact
Country’s poor overall performance in standardized tests:
• Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS)
• International Mathematics Olympiad• International Physics Olympiad
Dire state of science and math education in the country:
• CHED Bulletin: in SY 2004-2005, only 18% of NatSci and only 14% of Engineering enrollees graduate from the same courses
• Only around 20% of the Philippines’ engineering graduates meet international quality standards
The DLP Challenge
Socio-economic problems of the Philippine Educational System
Student
To develop each child to his or her fullest potential so that majority of our young people will totally be at par, or even at an intellectual advantage, compared with those of the advanced countries in terms of aptitude in physics and the other sciences and in rigorous mathematical analysis
Philippine Educational System
To improve basic education in the country
Philippines
To improve the quality of lives of Filipinos
Dynamic Learning Program
The Bernidos
• Developed in 2002 by spouses Dr. Christopher Bernido and Dr. Ma. Victoria Carpio-Bernido
• 2010 Ramon Magsaysay Awardees
• Renowned physicists who earned their doctorate degrees in physics from the State University of New York
• In the 1980s they headed the National Institute of Physics at the University of the Philippines and were university awardees for teaching and research excellence
• President and Principal, respectively, of the Central Visayan Institute Foundation in Jagna, Bohol where DLP was first implemented
The Dynamic Learning Program (DLP)
A teaching method, not a curriculum nor a module
Compatible with even special science and math curricula of science schools
A scientific, process-induced approach to learning
Based on modern & classical teaching strategies in real classroom situations
Developed using a mix of traditional methods, individual instruction, distance
education, Montessori philosophy & results in neuroscience
Designed to improve student learning amidst country's socio-economic constraints
Low-budget yet effective
Focuses on independent student learning, fundamentals and mastery of concepts
Non-traditional Learning
Independent Student Learning(no prior lecture, enabling vs teaching)
• Suitable for large classes• Reduces teaching personnel requirements• Less dependent on abilities & personalities
of the teachers• Develops teamwork among teachers• Addresses entire spectrum of students
(slow to brilliant)• Develops critical thinking• Builds confidence & motivation

Non-traditional Learning
Activity-based, multi-domain learning(student copies lesson & answers activities
within school hours, one simple specific attainable concept a day, prepared by
teachers before the start of the school year or quarter or semester)
• Requires less or no textbooks & school supplies only blank paper and pen
• Better retention of concepts• Mastery of concepts• Has built-in modes for teacher self-
evaluation & professional advancement• Develops English language proficiency:
written vs oral• Equalizes learning opportunities: urban &
rural• Builds self-discipline & stamina• Develops accountability & active learning

In-school student portfolio
Non-traditional Learning
Strategic rest and study periods(No homework policy, 4 academic days &
syncing of body rhythm)
• Builds accountability• Allows brain to fully develop: 8.5-9.25 hrs
of sleep needed by teens• Allows more time for rest, relaxation and
the family• Removes 'Monday blues'• Allows brain to re-charge• Allows better absorption: difficult subjects
