1. Technology and Livelihood Education (TLE) has four main components: Home Economics, Agriculture and Fishery Arts, Industrial Arts, and Information and Communication Technology. Entrepreneurship is integrated across all areas. 2. TLE has two curriculum streams - one focused on technical-vocational skills and one with an entrepreneurship focus. Schools can choose either stream depending on their resources and facilities. 3. TLE aims to develop students' technological proficiency through acquiring knowledge, skills, work values, and life skills. It equips students for lifelong learning through a hands-on, experiential teaching approach that integrates concepts, skills, and values.

2. DEFINITION
TLE is also referred to as CP-TLE for Career Pathways in Technology and Livelihood
Education.[3]
The 2010 Secondary Education Curriculum allocates 240 minutes per week for CP-
TLE, which is equivalent to 1.2 units. However, CP-TLE is required to include practical work
experience in the community, which may extend beyond its specified school hours.
Two types of curriculum are provided for regular high schools (public and private).
These are: Technical-Vocational Education-based TLE and Entrepreneurship
Education-based TLE. The Technical-Vocational Education-based TLE is focused on
technical skills development in any area
THE COMPONENTS OF TLE
Technology and Livelihood Education (TLE) has 4 components. These
are the following:
1. Home Economics (HE)
2. Agriculture and Fishery Arts (AFA)
3. Industrial Arts (IA)
4. Information and Communication Technology (ICT)
Entrepreneurship is integrated in all areas in TLE and its components.
1. Home Economics (HE)- cooking and other aspects of household
management, especially as taught at school.
2. Agriculture and Fishery Arts (AFA)- designed for hands-on learning and
application of skills that are related to agriculture and aquaculture. You will be
taking various subjects that are connected to other jobs such as food
processing, rubber production, animal production, or landscape installation.
3. Industrial Arts (IA)- an educational program which features fabrication of
objects in wood or metal using a variety of hand, power, or machine tools. It
may include small engine repair and automobile maintenance, and all
programs usually cover technical drawing.
4. Information and Communication Technology (ICT)- refers to
technologies that provide access to information through telecommunications.
It is similar to Information Technology (IT), but focuses primarily on
communication technologies. This includes the Internet, wireless networks,
cell phones, and other communication mediums.

3. Description of Framework
Technology and Livelihood Education encompasses the field of Home
Economics (H.E.); Industrial Arts (IA); Agri-Fishery Arts (AFA); and
Information, Communication. and Technology (ICT). The 24 TLE courses can
be categorized under any of these fields.
TLE as a course has two streams—the TR-based TLE and the Entrepreneur-
based TLE—and every school has a choice as to which stream to offer, with
consideration forfaculty, facilities, and resources. Both streams are based on
the Training Regulations, but the Entrepreneur-based TLE embeds
entrepreneurship concepts in the teaching of the various subjects in HE , IA,
AFA, and ICT.
TLE is geared toward the development of technological proficiency and is
anchored on knowledge and information, entrepreneurial concepts, process
and delivery, work values, and lifeskills. This means that the TLE that works is
one which is built on adequate mastery of knowledge and information, skills
and processes, and the acquisition of right work values and life skills. The
TLE that is functional is one whichequips students with skills for lifelong
learning. TLE that is concerned only with mere definition of terms is
meaningless and shallow. TLE that is focused on mastery of skills and
processes without right work values is anemic and dangerous. An effective
TLE is one that is founded on the cognitive, behavioral, or psychomotor and
affective dimensions of human development. Therefore teaching TLE means
teaching facts, concepts, skills, and values in their entirety.
The diagram likewise shows that entrepreneurial concepts also form part of
the foundation of quality TLE. It is expected that TLE students, after using the
Learning Modules on Entrepreneurship-based TLE, imbibe the
entrepreneurial spirit and consequently set up their own businesses in the
areas of Agri-Fishery Arts, Industrial Arts, Home Economics, and Information
and Communication Technology.
TLE by its nature is dominantly a skill subject; hence the teacher must
engage students in an experiential, contextualized, and authentic teaching-
learning process. It is a subject in whichstudentslearn best by doing. It is
integrative in approach. For instance, it integrates entrepreneurship with all
the areas of TLE. It integrates concepts, skills, and value
