About NISMED

The National Institute for Science and Mathematics Education Development is an extension arm of the University of the Philippines whose goal is to raise the level of science and mathematics education in the Philippines at the basic and teacher education levels.

Philosophy

Learners learn most effectively from experiences that are engaging, meaningful, challenging and relevant, and from teachers who facilitate construction of knowledge from such experiences.

Ganap na natututo ang mga mag-aaral sa pamamagitan ng mga gawaing makabuluhan, may hamon sa kakayahan at nakatutugon sa pang-araw-araw na buhay. Ito ay sa pamamagitan ng mga gurong gumagabay sa kanila upang makabuo ng karunungan mula sa ganitong mga karanasan.

Functions

UP NISMED has three major functions: curriculum development, teacher training and research. It also performs extension work as a natural outgrowth of these three major functions.
