A pair of students from the De La Salle University will represent the Philippines in the upcoming regional finals of ?Go Green in the City 2017? contest after winning the country finals held on Wednesday, June 7.
Even with a sprawling network of 76 campuses across the country with over 103,000 students, technology-focused educational institution STI continues to expand as it announced that it is building eight new campuses this year in key locations nationwide.
A lawmaker has recognized the University of The Visayas New School, which is based in Mandaue, Cebu for including e-sports and game development in its arts and design track for its Senior High School offering.
The school will offer courses including agro-entrepreneurship and agricultural technology. It will also house state-of-the-art agriculture facilities and equipment.
There are six STI Mobile Schools equipped with state-of-the-art computer laboratory with Internet access, 24 multimedia computers each, LCD monitors, sound system, and other top-of-the-line computer equipment.
Two remote schools in the island of Coron in Palawan recently became the beneficiary of the "School-in-a-Bag" initiative of Smart Communications where a complete set of multimedia learning equipment is packed in a big backpack for use in far-flung schools in the provinces.
Public high schools in the Philippines may soon be able to afford an instrumentation system -- hardware, software, sensors, and experiment modules -- which students can use for their laboratory experiments in various science subjects.
In an effort to widen access to technology in far-flung areas, the Department of Education (DepEd) said it is set to distribute computer packages and solar panels to public schools in areas without available electricity.
