Undersecretary for Administration Alain Del Pascua, in a statement issued Monday, May 10, said that these initiatives are part of DepEd’s preparation for the PEN where “we will connect all schools, all DepEd offices through various technologies.”
During the EduAksyon sa Norte virtual visit in April, DepEd turned over 2,972 smartphones and 82 laptops to selected learners and teachers from Regions 1, 2, 3, and Cordillera Administrative Region (CAR).
The said donation, DepEd said, was conducted to help the learners, especially the student-leaders, to facilitate and actualize academic and co-curricular activities and student-oriented projects and initiatives online.
The Information and Communications Technology Service (ICTS) also conducted a training workshop for the teachers and ICT coordinators on the e-book development using Kotobee and AppsGeyser.
