monitoring and evaluation is also motivates to the technological strategies to be done by the
professor in the tertiary education. Its approach is just the same as the K-12 curriculum.
The learners in public schools in the Philippines in terms of innovation are drastically the
problem itself due to its defective material of computers and lack of technological mastery of the
teachers. In contrast, the learners in private schools in the Philippines are fully prepared to the
advances in technology. But when the implementation of K-12 System was approved, the
innovation has been started as the Digital Age continues to revolve in this century. Here are the
characteristics of the learning in the 21st Century (modern) and the comparison to the traditional
age that has an impact to the learners.
