Description

In education, significant changes were noted from lectures and memorization in Education 1.0, internet-enabled learning in Education 2.0, knowledge-producing education in Education 3.0, then to innovative-producing education in Education 4.0. With the changes in education, this study is conducted to determine the extent of teachers’ knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, and instructional practices in the context of Education 4.0. A quantitative descriptive research design using survey technique was employed. The participants of this study were the higher education faculty of St. Paul University System. The main instrument that was used to solicit for information is a researcher-made questionnaire consisting of five (5) parts. Mean and Standard Deviation, Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient, and Multiple Linear Regression Analysis were the statistical tools used in this study. The results showed a positive relationship among the knowledge, beliefs, and attitudes towards Education 4.0. It is further revealed that attitude is significantly correlated to instructional practices. Recommendations are hereby given to address the needs and demands of the Fourth Industrial Revolution in Education.
