The Benitez Hall inside the Teachers Camp Baguio City was filled with Cheers of delegates from the delegates from Sarangani Division as they bagged several recognitions at the DepEd EdTech Awards 2022, June 22.





DepEd Sarangani took home the honor as the Most Outstanding Division Office for DepEd TV due to the support it provided in the production and dissemination of DepEd TV episodes in various teaching modalities.

"We will use this recognition to continue to strive to provide high-quality education through technology to Sarangan students, especially those in last mile schools," said Curriculum Implementation Division Chief Donna S. Panes in receiving the award.

The Sarangani division's contribution to DepEd TV was noted due to its innovation LRonWHEeLS or Learning Resources on WiFi Hub for Expanded e-Learning in Sarangani, where DepEd TV episodes are used as learning tools, making them even more interactive with the help of H5P technology.

LRonWHEeLS was also recognized as Best EdTech Innovation along with two other projects from Region XII.




The brains behind LRonWHEeLS Division Information Technology Officer Roy J. Detoyato was also honored as one of the Most Outstanding IT Officers nationwide.




Meanwhile, Glan School of Arts and Trades (GSAT) was named Best School for DepEd TV as most of the members of the DepEd TV Sarangani remote team are from GSAT and the school supported the DepEd TV team by providing a studio that the team used for the production of DepEd TV episodes.




Because of their contribution to DepEd TV, DepEd TV Sarangani Remote Team was recognized as one of the Best Remote Teams nationwide.




Cotabato Division, which also has a DepEd TV Remote Team is also among the Most Outstanding Divisions for DepEd TV.




These are the reasons why SOCCSKSARGEN was also recognized as one of the Most Outstanding Regional Offices for DepEd TV.
