>> Sunday, October 24, 2021
BAGUIO CITY -- The
Dept. of Education- Cordillera regional office reported smooth opening of
School Year 2021 – 2022 saying new programs and projects
are being pushed for better delivery of distance
learning amid the continuing challenges of the Coronavirus disease
pandemic.
DepEd regional director Estela Cariño, in media forum Wednesday, said 2020 was a challenging year for DepEd due to Covid-19 but with Education Sec. Leonor Briones and partnership among teachers, parents, learners and other stakeholders, they were able to surpass challenges and now looking forward for improved delivery of distance learning.
For this academic year, there were a total of 498,382 enrollees all over the region which showed increase of 51,868 or 11.6 percent compared to the 446,514 learners during school year 2020 – 2021.
In preparing for this school year, DepEd rolled out the “Regional Office On Wheels” where Cariño personally led the visitation of the different school divisions in the Cordillera provinces and cities to look into their issues and concerns.
For innovations, DepEd – CAR presented during the forum Project HyTEQ or the hybrid learning using technology with equity and quality which aims to integrate more technologies in teaching and learning.
Cariño said through Project HyTEQ which will use a combination of online and offline learning strategies, they hope to improve the delivery of distant learning and will ease the burden of teachers in printing modules, and which will help the environment with lesser use of papers.
DepEd Cordillera invested P28 million to buy computer tablets for learners for distribution this month in 62 pilot schools in the region.
For the assessment of the region’s learners, DepEd – CAR is also set to implement project SMART (standardized and meaningful assessment of resource-based teaching), a quarterly assessment that can be done online or by paper and pen.
Cariño said the assessment, which will use standard questions on critical thinking aligned with the lessons given, aims to measure development of learners and give teachers a basis if the mode of learning is working or if they need to modify or innovate. -- JDP/CCD-PIA CAR
