33. PRESENTS DAYS’ PROBLEM OF TECHNOLOGY EDUCATION.

34. Limited Access to Technology Access to technology and digital infrastructure remains a significant challenge in many parts of the Philippines, particularly in remote and underserved areas. This lack of access hinders students' ability to engage fully in technology education and limits their exposure to digital tools and resources.  

35. Inadequate Resources and Infrastructure Many schools in the Philippines face resource constraints, including limited funding for technology equipment, outdated or insufficient hardware and software, and inadequate internet connectivity. This hampers the implementation of technology education initiatives and limits hands-on learning opportunities for students.  

36. Teacher Training and Professional Development There is a need for comprehensive and ongoing training and professional development programs for teachers to enhance their knowledge and skills in technology education. Many educators may not have received sufficient training on integrating technology into their teaching practices or may not be familiar with the latest advancements in educational technology.  

37. Curriculum Alignment There may be a lack of alignment between the technology education curriculum and the skills needed in the rapidly evolving digital landscape. The curriculum may not adequately cover emerging technologies, such as artificial intelligence, data science, or robotics, which are increasingly important in today's society and job market.    

38. Limited Integration with Other Subjects Integration of technology education with other subject areas, such as science, mathematics, or design, may not be fully realized. Interdisciplinary approaches that leverage technology to enhance learning in multiple domains are not always well-implemented.  

39. Gender Disparity There is a gender disparity in technology education, with fewer girls and women pursuing technology-related fields. Efforts to promote gender equity in technology education and encourage female participation in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) fields are still needed.  

40. Industry Collaboration and Workforce Readiness Collaboration between educational institutions and industry is crucial to bridge the gap between classroom learning and the needs of the job market. Greater partnerships with industry professionals and exposure to real-world applications of technology can better prepare students for future careers. 

41. Inclusion and Equity Ensuring inclusive technology education is vital to address the needs of diverse learners, including students with disabilities or from marginalized communities. Efforts should be made to provide equitable access to technology education and address the digital divide that exists among different groups.  

42. SUPPORTING PROGRAMMES-EXPERIENCES IN THE FIELD OF EDUCATION AND TRAINING.
