QUEZON CITY, Philippines — SEAMEO INNOTECH continued to support the application of STEM education innovations in schools through monitoring visits to Quezon City Science High School and Ramon Magsaysay Cubao High School on 29 September 2026, highlighting how school leaders and teachers are translating their training into initiatives and classroom activities on climate change education.
The visits were conducted under the Innovators SEAL: STEM Education Leadership for Change Program, implemented in collaboration with the SEAMEO Regional Centre for STEM Education (SEAMEO STEM-ED), with funding from Chevron. Both schools participated in the program’s May 2026 training, which introduced digital STEM tools and the Claim-Evidence-Reasoning (CER) framework to support climate change education.
At Quezon City Science High School, school leaders and teachers presented ongoing climate initiatives, including Meatless Monday and the Carbon Footprint Challenge. These initiatives provided opportunities to discuss how digital STEM tools and the CER framework could help students measure, analyze, and communicate their impact.
Meanwhile, at Ramon Magsaysay Cubao High School, teachers facilitated a classroom demonstration where students used CODAP to examine climate change and its effects on ASEAN countries. Applying the CER framework, students developed claims supported by evidence and reasoning, demonstrating how the approaches introduced during the training are being applied in classroom learning.
Joining the SEAMEO INNOTECH team were Dr. Sheryl Lyn Monterola, Director of the University of the Philippines National Institute for Science and Mathematics Education Development (UP NISMED), and Dr. Ricky Magno, Dean of the College of Education at West Visayas State University, who shared their expertise during the visits.
Through these monitoring visits, SEAMEO INNOTECH continued to support participating schools in implementing STEM education innovations, connecting leadership development and teacher training with practical approaches to climate change education.
