Rest and Relax

Rest and relax after a long day of Computer and Internet Literacy Course in Don Agustin F. Escaño National High School in Bogo, Tomas Oppus, So. Leyte.

Rest and relax with peanuts on the side

Eating peanuts to let time pass by while waiting for dinner…

The culprit because according to the EENT specialist, i am not supposed to eat peanuts because it triggers my allergic rhinitis.. when my nose is clogged, my ears build up pressure and it hurts.. terribly.

mother in child in Computer and Internet Literacy Course

Simple poem during the CILC in Don Agustin F. Escaño National High School, September 18,19, 2o, 2009

Computer and Internet Literacy Course in DAFENHS, Tomas Oppus, So.Leyte

I wish I could capture into words

the expression on her face

when she was teaching her mother

the basics on the computer lesson.

She is a 10-year old kid

and her mother is in her late thirties

she is in the grade school

while her mother is a high school principal

she is trying to tell her mother to click this

her mother is trying to follow

she is telling her mother to do this

her mother is trying to grasp what she is telling.

This is now the reality on the 21^st education

it is clearly bridging the digital divide.

It is not just the digital divide

but also the age gap.

The teachers are the learners

and the learners are the teachers..

makes sense? I dont think so

although, thats exactly what im trying to do.

Come what may

This is Winston Tabada of Visayas State University got when he tried to calling the principal of Lim-ao National High School (LNHS). Despite the uncertainty, Sir Winston and his team still proceeded to visit the school.

LNHS is one of the recipient schools of the iSchools project of CICT. Per CICT guidelines, each school must be inspected for compliance. Each school must pass the standards of being a computer laboratory.

And so, the team of Sir Winston went to Lim-ao and luckily, Mr. Christopher Elbiña, LNHS principal was around. His cellphone was snatched that is why he can’t be contacted in his cellphone.

And, all is well that ends well. LNHS was inspected, teachers and parents were briefed and computers are finally delivered.

A reason to smile

This is the reason for Don Agustin F. Escano National High School to smile. Computers from the iSchools project of CICT.
