Tangali Integrated School receives 170 tablets from DepEd XII

Learners at Tangali Integrated School in North Malungon district will soon experience digital learning as the Department of Education Region XII turned over 170 tablets that they could use in their classes.

As part of DepEd's basic education learning continuity plan, DepEd XII procured tablets to be distributed to identified schools in the region, with a preference for schools in far-flung areas, whose learners are usually deprived of learning opportunities enjoyed by learners in more accessible schools.

The tablets contain digitized self-learning modules and stories that are intended to support the development of the learners' reading skills and address the unavailability of books and other reading materials.

The Schools Division of Sarangani has committed to enhancing the learners' use of said tablets by adding interactive learning materials such as automated quizzes and videos that are currently being developed.




Assistant Regional Director Rebonfamil R. Baguio, Schools Division Superintendent Gildo G. Mosqueda, and Malungon Mayor Atty. Ma. Teresa Constantino led the distribution of tablets during the turnover program yesterday, January 10.

ARD Baguio told the crowd that the tablets are intended to help the learners and that DepEd Region XII always has the learners in mind.

"I always tell teachers this: Whenever you are at a crossroads and you need to make a decision -- do not make a decision for the Regional Director, do not make a decision for the Superintendent, do not make a decision for your principal -- do it for the learner," he said.

Fresh from winning in the National Literacy Awards, Mayor Constantino is thankful that schools in the municipality have been chosen as recipients of the BE-LCP tablets and reminded the parents to also do their part in their children's education.

Ascer Abellon, school head of Tangali Integrated School, said that he will ensure maximum use of technology in classroom instruction by monitoring the usage of said tablets according to their purpose.

In addition to the tablets, ARD Baguio and the Curriculum and Learning Management Division also distributed gifts to the learners, while the Education Support Service Division gave the learners dental care kits and conducted a medical checkup for the parents.

LIGTAS DAPAT: SCHOOL NURSES SA SARANGANI BUMISITA SA MGA PAARALAN SA UNANG ARAW NG PASUKAN

Sa gitna ng pananabik ng mga kabataan at magulang sa muling pagbubukas ng mga paaralan ngayong unang araw ng SY 2022-2023, paalala ng School Health and Nutrition Section ng DepEd Sarangani na unahin dapat ang kaligtasan ng lahat. Ayon kay Mary Rose Wenna Ea, Nurse II, napag-alaman na sa kanilang paglilibot, may ilang mga mag-aaral na pumasok pa rin kahit mayroong lagnat. Sa entrance pa lamang ay sinusukat na ang temperatura ng lahat na pumapasok sa paaralan at agad na dinadala sa isolation area at pinapasundo sa magulang o guardian. Pinapayuhan naman ang mga magulang na huwag munang hayaang makihalubilo sa iba ang mga batang may lagnat at huwag na munang papasukin sa klase. “Kailangang mapangalagaan natin ang bawat isa -- lalo na ang mga kabataan -- dahil magkakasama na sa isang silid ang mga bakunado at hindi bakunado,” paliwanag ng nars. Dagdag pa niya na mahalagang mapanatili ang maayos na bentilasyon sa mga silid-aralan at kailangan laging nakasuot ng mask. Sa kanilang ...
