iSchools Project Closeout

The  Regional  Information and  Communications  Technology Center based at the College of Engineering and   Information Technology and managed by Dr. Camilo A. Polinga hosted the iSchools Project Closeout for the Southern Tagalog Cluster on 3-5 November 2011 at the Development Academy of the Philippines Convention Center, Tagaytay City.

The activity aimed to ensure completeness of all required project information, document and evaluate lessons learned and best practices, prepare the recipients for the operation phase, and manage the handholding between the Department of Education ICT coordinators and SUC partners.  Drs. Camilo A. Polinga and Leyma L. Cero served as workshop facilitators during the three-day activity.

The iSchools Project aims to contribute to the efforts of the Philippine government in bridging the digital divide by developing an Educational Digital Network that will provide all public high school teachers and students access to relevant digital content and applications in education that they can use to enhance effective learning. CvSU is one of the partner SUCs commissioned by the then Commission on ICT to implement the iSchools Project in selected provinces of the Southern Tagalog Region.
