❑ Innovation in Education
Operational Definition
The need to institutionalize
The significance
The considerations
The process and types
❑The Innovation Showdown Implementation

3. ❑Crafting and applying something that is new in an organization
❑It is a process of applying new useful and better ideas, and converting it into new
methods, products or services.
❑It is an idea that will provide quality improvement to the organization and will create
a significant change (DepEd Malaybalay City 2018).
❑Innovation is based in the creation (New) or redesign (improved) of products,
processes, or framework for the benefit of an organization.
❑Innovation makes positive changes that will directly benefit a classroom, school,
district, or even an organization’s training and learning practices (DiFranza, 2019)
❑Innovation in education is doing things in a new way to come up with an approach,
process, product or strategy (Northwest Missouri State University, 2021).

4. ❑“We should start teaching innovation in the basic education level”
❑“We have to change the way we teach our learners”
❑“We have to prepare them for a world that is drastically changing”
❑Innovation can raise the quality of the country’s basic education to address the
challenge to change the way learners are taught
❑Innovation can produce new breed of learners, upgrade capacity of teachers, and
improve facilities and equipment
❑Sulong EduKalidad focuses on four aggressive reforms in basic
education:
(1) K to 12 curriculum review and update,
(2) Improving learning environment,
(3) Teachers upskilling and reskilling, and
(4) Engagement of stakeholders for support and collaboration.

6. ❑To respond to the mandate of the regional mantra which underscores that every
child is a champion
❑To showcase innovative implementation of basic education services in the five
categories namely: Curriculum and Instruction; Policy, Planning, Research, and
Governance; Learning Environment; Human Resource Development; and ALS,
SPED, & IPEd as special programs in the schools, districts, and schools division
offices
❑To provide an intellectual activity that will produce champions in diverse areas of
basic education

7. ❑To solve educational issues, improve practices, and set standards
among school institutions
❑To empower program implementers and school leaders in seeking new
perspective of educational practices that will benefit learners to become
lifelong learners
❑To provide better opportunities and are crucial for the learning
development as well as optimizing school operations
❑To promote the culture of innovation and excellence in the region

8. ❑Educators are updated of the processes and approaches in introducing
better practices to produce champions
❑Development of new ideas, goods, services, and practice that address
gaps on access, quality and relevance and governance or management
of education services
❑Teachers and students are exploring, researching and using all the tools
to improve education
❑New and creative way of solving educational problems
❑Utilized research findings and outputs

10. Reiss Medwed of Northeastern University believes that innovation in education includes three key steps:
❑ Examine your current situation. This should include an examination of your experience followed by a
mental exploration of how that experience could be improved upon. Ask yourself three questions to get
this process going, including, “What is the problem?” “How can I address this problem to make it
better?” and “What tools do I have at my disposal to assist in this process?”
(these can be derived from but not limited to research findings/outputs, monitoring and evaluation results, and consultations)
❑ Make Small-Scale Changes. Once you’ve explored the above questions and the answers are
formalized, you should try to make that change on a small-scale
(this can be done by conducting survey, FGD, or action research)
❑ Broaden Your Approach & Accept to Feedback. Analyze the outcomes of that experiment and
identify what further support might be needed to either hone the idea or restructure it all together.
