Nazal (far left) together with graduates of the Global Filipino Teachers – Luzon cluster<br /> <br /> The Department of Education has commended Globe Telecom for its Global Filipino Teachers (GFT) program which equips public school teachers nationwide with necessary skills to efficiently integrate information and communications technology (ICT) in their teaching strategies.<br /> <br /> Speaking in behalf of DepEd Assistant Secretary Rey Laguda during the graduation ceremonies for GFT Luzon Cluster at the Mind Museum, DepEd Director III Demi I. Manuel hailed the GFT program for empowering teachers and allowing them to make significant contributions to learning and achievement.<br /> <br /> "Globe Bridging Communities, the corporate social responsibility arm of Globe, plays an important role in recognizing the contributions made right across the education sector towards nation-building and enabling governmental policies in extending the benefits of ICT in the classroom, in curriculum design and development and in every teacher and student in our country," Manuel said.<br /> <br /> Manuel added that experience has shown that a variety of support and enabling mechanisms must be implemented to optimize the use of ICT by the teachers. While traditional teacher leadership skills and practices are still important, she said that they must also have access to relevant, timely, and on-going professional development.<br /> <br /> <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: right; margin-left: 1em; text-align: right;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDXOpyxgBJt3-zskdHacHxBcVpL9Kk7aAZ3FDH-z_MnlDIqhIc39Vu-N7FyWywBk8ml-H2zyW7abex2ebjzdwI9lneAWNyenGf0aJmxUOVkppAwRjYCA9QGByOnAa4_fnltwimaKWosQ-W/s1600/how-to-be-your-own-boss-right-out-of-college-683x1024.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDXOpyxgBJt3-zskdHacHxBcVpL9Kk7aAZ3FDH-z_MnlDIqhIc39Vu-N7FyWywBk8ml-H2zyW7abex2ebjzdwI9lneAWNyenGf0aJmxUOVkppAwRjYCA9QGByOnAa4_fnltwimaKWosQ-W/s320/how-to-be-your-own-boss-right-out-of-college-683x1024.jpg" width="213" /></a></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">ADVERTISEMENT</td></tr> </tbody></table> "We are very happy that the private sector has been very active in helping the education sector in achieving its national as well as global development goals. We also hope that when the GFT graduates go back to their respective schools, they will have new knowledge, new skills, new perspectives and enhanced methods and strategies in ICT integration," Manuel said.<br /> <br /> Sixty-nine mentors from Ilocos Norte, Pangasinan, Bataan, Bulacan, Nueva Ecija, Pampanga, Tarlac, Batangas, Oriental Mindoro, Cavite, and National Capital Region received their diploma from Globe and its implementing partner, Coalition for Better Education (CBE), for having completed a five-day live-in training workshop on how to integrate ICT in their respective subject areas such as Math, Science, English, and Heyograpiya, Kasaysayan at Sibika (HeKaSi). The training is equivalent to three units in a masteral program. GFT, which started in 2009, has trained at least 386 teachers from 374 public schools in various parts of the country.<br /> <br /> Yoly C. Crisanto, Globe Head for Corporate Communications, said that since ICT provides increased teacher motivation and improved student memory retention and comprehension of various subjects, GFT was able to transform computers and the internet from being mere sources of information into instruments of interactive teaching and online collaboration.<br /> <br /> "Globe is committed to be a relevant and innovative leader in maximizing ICT for education in public schools. So we continue to work hand-in-hand with DepEd and our partners as we aspire to help our schools meet 21st century standards in terms of teaching and in giving students access to quality education," she said.<br /> <br /> Jeffrey O. Tarayao, President of the Coalition for Better Education, on the other hand, expressed appreciation to Globe for investing in the public school teachers and ensuring that ICT becomes <br /> really valuable and meaningful to them.<br /> <br /> "CBE is humbled by the fact that we have a partner that truly lives up to the vision of a better education for young Filipinos nationwide. GFT could have been a word, but short of one letter. To be a GFT is to be a GIFT. "I" could mean innovation in teaching. "I" could also mean integrity which every Filipino teacher must protect," he said.<br /> <br /> CBE provides the content of the training modules which include lessons on the proper use of ICT in classroom activities, online assessment, effective and efficient management of class resources, creation of virtual classrooms and moderate discussion boards, preparation of portfolio of classroom project activities, and demo-lecture of the modules prepared by the teachers.<br /> <br /> The teachers are guided on how to efficiently use and navigate through the internet and are given an assessment tool for the adoption of a better grading system. There are also modules focusing on online collaboration as well as on creating projects where they could apply all that they have learned from the training.<br /> <br /> Source: <a href="https://www.globe.com.ph/globebridgecom/iaccess/deped-commends-globe-telecom" target="_blank">GLOBE</a><br /> <br /> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><span style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><a href="http://www.max.com/max/510725/us/en" target="_blank"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEip8Vw9w-Sywaslvv8p1MbmwEBC_6OfkWsBVUexU72oLWLlS_XIjNG3AFAmyeskpA_3FgZ1ZmqL-SJIILGFGAhrBuE6xMR1QitjwOgRNZQu2XDW-A41ImHkrvTB6nWa3CbB6VeKjou5nbLp/s640/webBanner-riboceine_en.jpg" width="640" /></a></span></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.max.com/max/510725/us/en" target="_blank">ADVERTISEMENT</a></td></tr> </tbody></table> <br /></div>

According to Briones, another key focus of the Department of Education (DepEd) is to intensify and expand the Alternative Learning System (ALS).<br /> <br /> Among the issues to be discussed in the summit are:</div> <ul style="background-color: white; font-family: "Open Sans"; font-size: 14px; margin: 1em 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 40px;"> <li>Linkage of education and the economy;</li> <li>Human resource and management issues in education;</li> <li>Understanding the condition and needs of learners to guide intervention;</li> <li>Digital education and use of technology in the knowledge and information age;</li> <li>Higher education as a force of social and cultural transformation;</li> <li>Higher education as accelerator of innovation and inclusive economic prosperity.</li> </ul> <div style="background-color: white; font-family: "Open Sans"; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;"> <br /> The K to 12 Curriculum and its support system, as well as ALS and its equivalencies, will also be taken up.<br /> <br /> “We prepared a comprehensive agenda for this summit to ensure that all issues and challenges are adequately addressed to allow the trifocal education system to really move forward,” Briones explained.<br /> <br /> Aside from Briones, other key personalities who will take center stage in the summit are Cabinet Secretary Leoncio Evasco, Commission on Higher Education (CHED) Chairperson Patricia Licuanan, and Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) Director Guiling Mamondiong.<br /> <br /> The heads of the three education agencies will share their respective agenda for the education sector, taking into consideration the mandates of the constitution, laws and international commitments, and the directions they have set for their respective agencies.<br /> <br /> <span style="border: 0px; color: #595959; font-family: verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;"><span style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">SOURCE: <b style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;"><a href="http://www.deped.gov.ph/press-releases/briones-presents-deped%E2%80%99s-accomplishments-agenda-beyond-first-100-days" style="border: 0px; color: #a0a0a0; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;" target="_blank">DEPED</a></b></span></span></div> </div>

DepEd campaigns for better AD/HD awareness

Increased public awareness on the effects of the characteristics and social issues faced by people with AD/HD may result in increased protection of children from neglect and abuse.</span><br /> <br /> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "open sans"; font-size: 14px;">Teaching students with special needs requires deeper understanding of their real condition. Learners with AD/HD tend to experience disorganization, impulsivity, and hyperactivity. While they may want to overcome these, it is not as simple as others may think.</span><br /> <br /> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "open sans"; font-size: 14px;">Teacher Marinil Juan of Pasay City SPED Center, who has been teaching learners with AD/HD for 11 years, shared how she’s handling students with these certain exceptionalities.</span><br /> <br /> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "open sans"; font-size: 14px;">Acknowledging that people with AD/HD suffer from inattentiveness, Teacher Marinil said, “I give frequent, small breaks, and I also make sure to give them verbal instructions which are not more than 10 minutes each.”</span><br /> <br /> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "open sans"; font-size: 14px;">Teacher Marinil also makes sure that she shares common interests with her students. Based on her experience, this makes her students listen more to her.</span><br /> <br /> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "open sans"; font-size: 14px;">“There should be a balance in dealing with these learners. We must be strict and firm, yet loving and approachable,” she added.</span><br /> <br /> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "open sans"; font-size: 14px;">Teacher Russell Agcaoili of La Union SPED Center believes that the best way to handle learners with AD/HD is to be thoroughly informed about their condition. She often reads articles and research about AD/HD to further understand the condition of her students.</span><br /> <br /> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "open sans"; font-size: 14px;">“I design effective and appropriate educational materials for my students by collaborating with a developmental pediatrician and parents, as well as observing my learners’ behavior,” she added.</span><br /> <br /> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "open sans"; font-size: 14px;">People with AD/HD often suffer from negative stereotypes from the public, which the DepEd, AD/HD Society of the Philippines, and other agencies and organizations aim to correct through the celebration of the National AD/HD Awareness Week.</span><br /> <br /> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "open sans"; font-size: 14px;">“People would think that kids with AD/HD are unaware of their behavior or actions. But my students come to me and say ‘Ma’am, I can’t stop moving’ and ‘</span><em style="background-color: white; font-family: "Open Sans"; font-size: 14px;">Di ko kayang pigilan ang pagtakbo, Teacher’</em><span style="background-color: white; font-family: "open sans"; font-size: 14px;">,” Teacher Marinil shared.</span><br /> <br /> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "open sans"; font-size: 14px;">She added that these kids are trapped in a body they have no control of, and that these kids need all the understanding and acceptance they can get.</span><br /> <br /> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "open sans"; font-size: 14px;">Teacher Russell added, “Persons with AD/HD need to be accepted in the society, and must be given equal opportunities to grow as individuals.”</span><br /> <br /> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "open sans"; font-size: 14px;">Reflecting the same passion in handling learners with special needs, SPED Teacher Nora Pablo of Villamor Airbase Elementary School said, “With proper handling, coupled with a passionate heart, students with AD/HD can learn too—in their own way, style and pace.”</span><br /> <br /> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "open sans"; font-size: 14px;">Many of the people with AD/HD have above-average intelligence, are highly creative, and have the ability to multi-task. With proper management and support, people with AD/HD can live a productive life, and can contribute to the nation’s moral, financial and spiritual recovery.</span><br /> <br /> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "open sans"; font-size: 14px;">The DepEd calls for the participation of all schools, especially those schools offering program for children with AD/HD as well as the Special Education (SPED) Centers.</span><br /> <br /> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "open sans"; font-size: 14px;">Some of the efforts and activities to be conducted in schools are hanging of streamers, art workshops for children and youth with AD/HD, exhibit on educational services offered to children with AD/HD, community and parents’ forum on understanding and possible employment of people with AD/HD, among others.</span><br /> <br /> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "open sans"; font-size: 14px;">The annual celebration of the National AD/HD Awareness Week on the third week of October is pursuant to Presidential Proclamation No. 472, s. 2003 signed by then President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo.</span><br /> <br /> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "open sans"; font-size: 14px;">These efforts are pursuant to the DepEd Memorandum No. 167, series 2016 or the 2016 National Attention Deficit/Hyperactive Disorder (AD/HD) Awareness Week which is available online at </span><a href="http://www.deped.gov.ph/memos/dm-167-s-2016" style="background-color: white; color: #04508c; font-family: "Open Sans"; font-size: 14px; text-decoration: none;">http://www.deped.gov.ph/memos/dm-167-s-2016</a><span style="background-color: white; font-family: "open sans"; font-size: 14px;">.</span><br /> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "open sans"; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "open sans"; font-size: 14px;">Source: <a href="http://www.deped.gov.ph/press-releases/deped-campaigns-better-adhd-awareness" target="_blank">DepED</a></span><br /> <br /> <br /></div> <a href="http://intercaretrainingschool.com/the-program/bartending-nc-ii/" target="_blank"><img alt="InterCare Bartending NC II" border="0" src="http://i67.tinypic.com/4lq5i8.jpg" /></a> </div>

Gender and development component of school curricula, especially in relation to sex education and teenage pregnancy, and environmental awareness and disaster preparedness, are being reinforced.</span><br style="position: relative; word-wrap: break-word;" /><span style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;"> </span><br style="position: relative; word-wrap: break-word;" /><span style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">Aside from enhancing drug education, expanding the reach of ALS is another DepEd program that has President Duterte’s expressed support.</span><br style="position: relative; word-wrap: break-word;" /><span style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;"> </span><br style="position: relative; word-wrap: break-word;" /><span style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">DepEd is working double-time to revive and expand the coverage of ALS.

To support the curriculum needs, provision of additional basic resources is underway: P15.5 billion will be allotted to hiring 53,831 teachers, P3 billion for 55.8 million learning materials, P4.5 billion 8,833 science and math equipment packages, and P7.3 billion for 7,260 TechVoc tools and equipment packages.</span><br style="position: relative; word-wrap: break-word;" /><span style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;"> </span><br style="position: relative; word-wrap: break-word;" /><span style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">On October 19, the House of Representatives approved on third and final reading the 2017 General Appropriations Act (GAA) that will provide P3.35 trillion national budget to finance government operations in 2017.

DepEd identified procurement and management system as major roadblocks. To address these, DepEd introduced greater leadership supervision over Finance and Administration: two Undersecretaries for Finance were appointed–one in charge of the expenditure to make sure money flows and is accounted for, and another to manage budget utilization.</span><br style="position: relative; word-wrap: break-word;" /><span style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;"> </span><br style="position: relative; word-wrap: break-word;" /><span style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">2.

In a move to support the campaign against the proliferation of illegal drug use, DepEd convened with the Department of Justice (DOJ) to form a Working Group that will forge a common legal position on drug testing for students and personnel among DepEd, the Commission on Higher Education (CHEd) and Technicial Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA), and implement the comprehensive drug testing initiative in partnership with the Department of Health (DOH).</span><br style="position: relative; word-wrap: break-word;" /><span style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;"> </span><br style="position: relative; word-wrap: break-word;" /><span style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">5. One education intervention to help keep schoolchildren in school until completion of basic education is the continuation of school-based feeding programs.

Briones stressed that to be part of DepEd, excellent education credentials are but the minimum qualification. Employees should strive to be more capacitated and informed on the state of education and the needs of the country.
