As founded theory in the field of Education and Psychology, relevant implications and assessment of this theory into the current trends and social structure of education emphasizing teaching and learning process were imperative to examine. In this line, this study described and examined teachers’ perceptions as to the theory and practice of Social Learning theory in innovation and creativity within the teaching and learning process. Thus, the study employed descriptive correlational research through researcher-made survey-questionnaire. Results showed that teachers practically operated and highly utilized Social Learning Theory as practical model in improving teaching and learning process. Findings also showed that teachers who understand the principles and assertion of social learning theory are likely to recognize the importance of establishing focused behavior among their learners.
