Day 2 of the international learning and benchmarking exchange of Luis Aguado National High School was successfully conducted today at the SEAMEO STEM-Ed Regional Center (South East Asian Ministers of Education Organization โ Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics Education) in Bangkok, Thailand.
The visit aimed to strengthen institutional learning, share best practices, and benchmark innovative approaches in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) education. Through meaningful discussions and immersive engagements, participants gained valuable insights into regional STEM programs, instructional strategies, and educational innovations being implemented across Southeast Asia.
The learning exchange was graciously accepted and hosted by Dr. Kessara Amornvuthivorn, Centre Director of SEAMEO STEM-Ed, whose warm welcome and leadership enriched the learning experience. Dr. Amornvuthivorn shared valuable perspectives on regional STEM initiatives, research-driven practices, and collaborative opportunities among Southeast Asian educational institutions.
The activity was led by DepEd-Cavite Education Program Specialist Dr. Liza Soberano, together with School Principal Luis G. Viรฑegas, and Head Teacher II of the Science Department, Ms. Joan C. Tobilla, reflecting the strong leadership and shared commitment of the delegation to quality and globally responsive education.
The school delegation was composed of dedicated educators representing various learning areas:
โข Danachelle Basco โ Science Teacher
โข Alain Joseph Maglabe โ English Teacher
โข Jonathan Rosario โ English Teacher
โข Via May Sicatin โ Mathematics Teacher
โข Mark Joseph Gallang โ Mathematics Teacher
โข Ana May Maigue โ TLE Teacher
โข Estrella Peren โ TLE Teacher
โข Josephine Gutang โ Filipino Teacher
Following the formal learning sessions, the SEAMEO STEM-Ed team toured the delegation to the Science Center for Education, popularly known as the Bangkok Planetarium. The guided tour provided hands-on exposure to interactive science exhibits, astronomy displays, and innovative learning spaces designed to promote scientific curiosity and public science education.
The visit to the Science Center for Education further enriched the learning exchange by showcasing effective strategies in informal science education, experiential learning, and the integration of technology in STEM instructionโpractices that can be adapted and contextualized in classroom and school-based settings.
This international exposure marks another milestone for Luis Aguado National High School, as it continues to align its programs with global standards and innovative practices. The experiences and insights gained from both the SEAMEO STEM-Ed sessions and the Bangkok Planetarium visit will serve as a strong foundation for enhancing classroom instruction, curriculum planning, and student-centered STEM learning.
Day 2 stands as a testament to the schoolโs dedication to excellence, collaboration, and lifelong learning in an ever-evolving educational landscape.
