It explores the philosophical, ethical, and accountabilities of teachers in the practice of their profession within the context of national and global standards. Moreover, this book is responsive to Outcomes-Based Education (OBE) because of the provision of performance tasks and rubric evaluation in every chapter. It also presents the paradigm shift in teaching competency among Filipino teachers to Philippine Professional Standards for Teachers (PPST). Furthermore, it discusses the most recent educational reforms, issues, and policies in Philippine education that are essential updates to prepare pre-service teachers to the demands of teaching and learning in the 21st century landscape."--Back cover
