Technical Vocational and Livelihood
A track that prepares senior high student to become job-ready, skilled, middle-level worker leading to an appropriate National Certificate from TESDA. Technical Education - learning activities dealing with the development of technical skills, knowledge and attitudes relative to production or service occupations for effective citizenship Vocational Education - specialized education programs or courses intended to prepare students for employement as skilled workers in a particular sector or area, to upgrade the work skills of those who are already employed. (Camarao 1999)
The TVL track can get you employed after senior high school.
During TVL Senior High, you can earn Certificates of Competency (COCs) and National Certifications (NCs) for skills learned according to TESDA training regulations. TVL Track senior high students will also have the opportunity to gain actual hands-on experience through school-industry partnerships for technical-vocational courses.
DepEd has entered into an agreement with business organizations, local and foreign chambers of commerce, and industries to ensure that graduates of K to 12 will be considered for employment.
There will be a matching of competency requirements and standards so that 12-year basic education graduates will have the necessary skills needed to join the workforce and to match the College Readiness Standards for further education and future employment.
Entrepreneurship will also be fostered in the enhanced curriculum, ensuring graduates can venture into other opportunities beyond employment.

This track will equip you with job-ready skills in the future even without college.
According to General Joel Villanueva college or university education is appealing but TVET is more affordable, hands on, and the path to a good job is shorter.
It is affordable because it is offered in public schools as well as in more accessible private schoolss. Such accessible private schools do not offer more than the DepEd Senior High School voucher.
It is hands on because the TVL track teaches practical skills and comes with industry partnerships that will let students gain on- the job experience.
And the path to a good job is shorter because after gaining employable skills, a TVL track senior high graduate can seamlessly transition from school to workplace here or abroad.
The specializations in this Track are Agri-Fishery Arts Strand, Home Economics, Information and Communication Technology, and Industrial Arts.
Under agri-fishery arts you can familiarize yourself with the production industries of horticulture, animal production, slaughtering operations, and pests management. You can also dive deeper in the field of aquaculture and learn about fish production, fish wharf operation, and food processing.
In home economics you will be learning courses on barbering, bartending, beauty care, bread and pastry, caregiving, cookery, dressmaking, food and beverage, housekeeping, tourism, and handicrafts.
Under ICT you can learn writing computer programs such as illustrating and designing websites. You will be also taking up technical drafting, animation and java programming. Other subject in this strand are medical transcription and technical drafting.
Above all industrial arts will provide you with the skills and knowledge on carpentry, automotive servicing, driving, electronics repair, electrical installation, welding, plumbing, and tile setting.

In TVL track can get you employed right after senior high school. After 2 years of senior high TVL you'll have earned employable skills and will this be eligible to work ("The K-12 basic education program). To highlight its worth in the K-12 curriculum, the department of education (DepEd) has formed a Technical Vocational unit in the bureau of secondary education. For them, this unit needs strengthening as one of the three key strands that will prepare high school graduates by aiming them with skill for employment. If the student picks the TVL track as specialty in senior high school or SHS. He/she will continue the TLE course he/she studied in 9th and 10th grades. This will allow him/her to earn NCII that he/she can use as credentials in applying for a job if he/she want to work after SHS graduation. Yet if the student will study further. He/she can pursue the TVL track and earn a bachelor degree in related friend. (Liza Marrero)

"Impact of ICT's on learning and achievement of student. "
It is generally believed that ICTs can empower teachers and learners, promote change and foster the development of ‘21st century skills, but data to support these beliefs are still limited There is widespread belief that ICTs can and will empower teachers and learners, transforming teaching and learning processes from being highly teacher-dominated to student-centered, and that this transformation will result in increased learning gains for students, creating and allowing for opportunities for learners to develop their creativity, problem-solving abilities, informational reasoning skills, communication skills, and other higher-order thinking skills. However, there are currently very limited, unequivocally compelling data to support this belief. The positive impact of ICT use in education has not been proven In general, and despite thousands of impact studies, the impact of ICT use on student achievement remains difficult to measure and open to much reasonable debate. Positive impact more likely when linked to pedagogy It is believed that specific uses of ICT can have positive effects on student achievement when ICTs are used appropriately to complement a teacher’s existing pedagogical philosophies. ICTs motivate teachers and students There appears to be a general consensus that both teachers and students feel ICT use greatly contributes to student motivation for learning.

"Impacts of ICT on achievement on learning of students" > There is wide spread belief that Information and communication Technologies ( ICTs) can and will empower teachers and learners by transforming teaching and learning processes from being teacher- centered to student-centered. This transformation will result in increased learning gains and motivation for students. However, reviews of the research on impacts of ICTs on student achievement yield few conclusive statements, pro or contra, about the impact of ICTs on achievement and motivation. For every study that comes out with significant positive impact, another study finds little or no such positive impact. Many studies that find positive impacts of ICTs on student learning rely on self-reporting. What is still being debated, however, is the precise role ICT should play in education reform and how best to ensure that potential is fulfilled.The present paper tries to highlight some of the issues debated in the present context such as explicitly and clarity of goals while using ICT, Whether ICT used as substitute or complement to teacher’s existing pedagogical approaches,whatever improvement whether real,differential effect on students with or without facility of computer at home, age for student, effect of gender of the learner, Design of the impact study and many more.These issues are required to be sorted out if effectiveness of ICTs is to be maximized.

Positive impact more likely when linked to pedagogy It is believed that specific uses of ICT can have positive effects on student achievement when ICTs are used appropriately to complement a teacher’s existing pedagogical philosophies.
‘Computer Aided Instruction’ has been seen to slightly improve student performance on multiple choice, standardized testing in some areas Computer Aided (or Assisted) Instruction (CAI), which refers generally to student self-study or tutorials on PCs, has been shown to slightly improve student test scores on some reading and math skills, although whether such improvement correlates to real improvement in student learning is debatable.
Need for clear goals ICTs are seen to be less effective (or ineffective) when the goals for their use are not clear. While such a statement would appear to be self-evident, the specific goals for ICT use in education are, in practice, are often only very broadly or rather loosely defined.
There is an important tension between traditional versus 'new' pedagogies and standardized testing Traditional, transmission-type pedagogies are seen as more effective in preparation for standardized testing, which tends to measure the results of such teaching practices, than are more ‘constructivist’ pedagogical styles.
Mismatch between methods used to measure effects and type of learning promoted In many studies, there may be a mismatch between the methods used to measure effects and the nature of the learning promoted by the specific uses of ICT. For example, some studies have looked only for improvements in traditional teaching and learning processes and knowledge mastery instead of looking for new processes and knowledge related to the use of ICTs. It may be that more useful analysis of the impact of ICT can only emerge when the methods used to measure achievement and outcomes are more closely related to the learning activities and processes promoted by the use of ICTs.
ICTs are used differently in different school subjects Uses of ICTs for simulations and modeling in science and math have been shown to be effective, as have word processing and communication software (e-mail) in the development of student language and communication skills.
Access outside of school affects impact The relationships between in-class student computer use, out of class student computer use and student achievement are unclear. However, students in OECD countries reporting the greatest amount of computer use outside school are seen in some studies to have lower than average achievement (the presumption is that high computer use outside of school is disproportionately devoted to computer gaming).
Users believe that ICTs make a positive difference In studies that rely largely on self-reporting, most users feel that using ICTs make them more effective learners.
