With the suspension of classes during the Enhanced Community Quarantine, the city government of Taguig launched the project in a bid to arm teachers with skills for Web-based learning.
In partnership with Taguig City LGU, Informatics provides teachers with the opportunity to learn and develop online teaching methods and strategies, IT literacy, presentation, and communication skills over the Internet. Teachers were taught on how to leverage digital and technology in enhancing their students’ learning experience. The full training program by Informatics called TEACHnology, will equip public school teachers with the tools to connect and engage better with the tech-savvy Generation Zs in the classroom. It is currently offered across Informatics campuses.
Through the Taguig Teachers Training Program or Cyber Schooling for Taguig Teachers, the city is providing teachers with the opportunity to develop online teaching methods, IT literacy, presentation, and communication skills over the Internet. With over 41,000 online resources including 9,000 plus courses, Through the Intelligent e-Learning Platform, Informatics makes learning more accessible to many users from all knowledge levels.
Teachers may take the courses using their personal laptops, tablets, or smart phones. Those who have no means to go online through their personal devices may use desktop computers at Taguig public schools’ CyberLabs.
