Abstract

This study investigates the significance of Digital “Baybayin”  and cultural narratives in Philippine higher education, focusing on its role in preserving Filipino cultural heritage amidst post-pandemic challenges. Employing qualitative methods and guided by theoretical frameworks on Cultural Identity Theory,  Technology Acceptance Model, and Community of Inquiry Framework, the research examines how traditional cultural narratives encoded in “Baybayin”  scripts are transmitted and interpreted through digital tools, revitalizing them in modern contexts. Thematic analysis identifies significant themes: Identity Formation, as Digital “Baybayin”  enhances cultural identity and pride among students and educators; Digital Literacy, fostering competence in utilizing digital tools for cultural preservation; Interdisciplinary Approaches, highlighting collaborative efforts across disciplines to integrate “Baybayin”  into curricula; and Future Directions, emphasizing ongoing research into digital pedagogies and community engagement for sustainable cultural revitalization. Further, findings underscore the transformative impact of integrating “Baybayin” into higher education curricula, enhancing cultural literacy and identity. Recommendations advocate for enhancing digital literacy, fostering community engagement, and promoting transdisciplinary approaches to deepen understanding of “Baybayin” and cultural narratives in educational settings. Theoretical insights and practical considerations advance future research directions, emphasizing the integration of “Baybayin” into curricula and exploring digital pedagogies to strengthen cultural connections in the post-pandemic college techscape.
