Capacity Building of Learning Resource Evaluators (LREs) on Evaluation and Quality Assurance of Microlearning Resource Prototypes
The Capacity Building of Learning Resource Evaluators (LREs) on Evaluation and Quality Assurance of Microlearning Resource Prototypes program aims to strengthen the evaluative skills of participants in assessing and assuring the quality of microlearning resources. This initiative focuses on equipping LREs with practical tools and methodologies for evaluating prototypes based on microlearning principles, including content accuracy, instructional design, accessibility, and relevance. Through a combination of theoretical sessions on microlearning fundamentals and hands-on practice, participants learn to apply advanced evaluation and quality assurance techniques, refining prototypes through structured peer reviews and constructive feedback. The program not only enhances their technical skills in resource evaluation but also empowers them to support the development of high-quality, effective learning materials that meet rigorous educational standards
Workshop on the Development of Microlearning Prototypes
The five-day workshop, held from October 14 to 18, 2024, at the DepEd NEAP Region II facility in Tuguegarao City, aimed to equip participants with the vital skills needed to design and develop micro-learning prototypes. This engaging workshop focused on integrating digital learning tools into concise and targeted lessons, allowing educators to engage students more effectively through bite-sized learning formats.
Each day featured a structured schedule that included theoretical sessions on the first day, where participants gained valuable insights into fundamental concepts, followed by practical, hands-on development work in the second day. Key topics covered during the workshop included the principles of microlearning, effective content curation strategies, proficiency with various digital tools, and the basics of interactive design.
Participants worked collaboratively in teams to create their own microlearning prototypes, applying the knowledge and skills they had acquired throughout the workshop. These prototypes were then reviewed and refined through constructive feedback from both their peers and facilitators. The workshop not only cultivated an atmosphere of innovation and teamwork but also promoted ongoing feedback loops,
ensuring the quality, effectiveness, and relevance of the materials created. This hands-on experience equipped educators with valuable resources they can incorporate into their teaching practices, ultimately enhancing the overall learning experience for their students.
Division Memorandum No. 230, s. 2024 – Inventory of Tablets, Smart TVs, and Other Multimedia Resources
In response to Division Memorandum No. 230, s. 2024, the Schools Division Office (SDO) successfully completed a comprehensive inventory multimedia resource across all schools within the division. This initiative aimed to ensure accurate and up-to-date records of learning materials and devices, such as tablets and Smart TVs, to support equitable resource distribution and effective learning resource management.
Each school was instructed to complete the inventory checklist (Annex A) by providing essential details for each multimedia device, including device type, quantity, brand/model, current user, condition, and any noted issues. By the June 7, 2024, deadline, all schools submitted their checklists, which were reviewed and updated to reflect accurate records of multimedia and other resources. The Learning Resource Management and Development Section (LRMDS) Team also conducted random inspections to verify the reliability of the submissions, thus ensuring that data from all schools is consistent and accurate.
Introduced DepEd LMS and Front learners through Starbooks
Pursuant to Memorandum DM-CT-2024-268, titled “Development and Utilization of the Interim E-Library on the MATATAG Portal Learning Management System,” the Bureau of Learning Resources (BLR) developed the MATATAG e-Library, which served as the official repository of copyrighted digital textbooks and other DepEd learning resources. In line with this, the Learning Resource Management Section (LRMS) team under the Curriculum Implementation Division conducted orientations for each school to ensure the proper utilization of the system
