University Vision : A premier multidisciplinary-technological university.

University Mission: The University shall primarily provide advanced professional and technical instruction for special purposes
advanced studies in industrial trade, agriculture, fishery, forestry aeronautics and land-based program, arts and sciences, health
sciences, information technology and other relevant fields of study. It shall also undertake research and extension services, and
provide progressive leadership in its areas of specialization.

University Goals: The University shall produce scientifically and technologically oriented human capital equipped with appropriate
knowledge, skills, and attitudes. It shall likewise pursue relevant research, strengthen linkages with the industry, community and
other institutions and maintain sustainable technology for the preservation of the environment
University Outcomes: 1. Transformed visionary leadership in innovation to accelerate regional and national development in the context of the modern
industrial evolution;
2. Increased access by economically challenged but deserving student to relevant, quality, and world-class tertiary education with
learning integration of practical experiences to achieve inclusive and sustainable growth;
3. Developed research-intensive and multi-disciplinary university culture that strengthens higher education research,
leading to economic productivity and innovation;
4. Instituted innovative systems resulting in effective, efficient, sustainable and equitable resource general, mobilization, and
management, including optimal utilization of resources provided by the government and expansion of the other revenue and
funding streams for financial sustainability;
5. Heightened sustainable community and stakeholder engagements, with harmonized institutional, financial,administrative, and policy
frameworks that attain the highest academic, research, extension and resource generation excellence standards;
6. Forged strategic local and international linkages, partnerships, and initiatives leading to heightened regional and global role in the
modern industrial and human and intellectual capital for sustained economic development.

Core Values : Commitment, Transparency, Unity, Patriotism, Integrity, Excellence, Spirituality (CTU PIES)

Program Outcomes: The BSED program aims to develop secondary teachers who can:
1. Participate in the generation of new knowledge or projects in research and development projects
2. Articulate and discuss the latest developments in the specific field of practice. (PQF level 6 descriptor)
3. Communicate effectively through oral and in written forms using both English and Filipino
4. Work effectively and independently in multi-disciplinary and multi-cultural teams. (PQF level 6 descriptor)
5. Act in recognition of professional, social, and ethical responsibility
6. Preserve and promote “Filipino historical and cultural heritage” (based on RA 7722
7. Apply the basic and higher level literacy, communication, numeracy, critical thinking, learning skills needed for higher learning
8. Exhibit a deep and principled understanding of the learning process and the role of the teacher in facilitating these processes in
their students
 9. Demonstrate a deep and principled understanding of how educational processes relate to larger historical, social, cultural
and political processes;
10. Illustrate a meaningful and comprehensive knowledge of the subject matter they will teach
11. Apply a wide range of teaching process skills (including curriculum development, lesson planning, materials development
educational assessment, teaching approaches
12. Demonstrate a direct experience in the field/classroom (e.g., classroom observations, teaching assistance, practice teaching);
13. Demonstrate and practice the professional and ethical requirements of the teaching professions;
14. Facilitate learning of the diverse types of learners, in diverse types of learning environments, using a wide range of teaching knowledge
15. Reflect on the relationships among the teaching process skills, the learning processing in the students, the nature of the
contents/subject matter, and the broader social forces encumbering the school educational processes in order to constantly
improve their knowledge, skills and practices;
16. Create and innovate in teaching of alternative teaching approaches, take informed risks in trying out these innovative
approaches and evaluate the effectiveness of such approaches in improving student learning; and
17. Continue learning in order to better fulfill their mission as teachers.

Course Description : This course deals with the concept, laws and foundation of the study of lights and its interaction with matter-the field of optics.
Practical application of these Laws in optical devices as well as explanation of natural phenomena are also covered.

Course Learning Outcomes: At the end of the course, the students can:

1. Apply the concepts, law and basic mathematical operations in the field of optics to daily life.
2. Utilize the concepts and laws of optics to the construction of political devices.
3. Recognize the importance of physics to science and technology.
