The Department of Education
District of Malay is making preparations for the “Text2Teach” project for the
eight (8) public elementary schools at the town of Malay.
According to Malay District Supervisor, Jessie S.
Flores, there is a resolution which establishes that the Municipal Mayor can
enter into a Memorandum of Agreement, together with the DepEd Division of Aklan,
and Ayala Foundation related to the implementation of the project “Text2Teach.”
Flores said that the “Text2Teach” is a program which brings educational
content to public schools in the elementary using videos which can be
downloadable by means of Short Messaging System (SMS).
He added that the program had been proven effective with
students because of students’ good performance especially in Mathematics and
Science.
Every school that has a “Text2Teach” program will receive a
packet containing one (1) mobile phone, one (1) prepaid SIM card, and one (1)
29-inch colored television.
Currently, the DepEd Malay is waiting for the start of the
program.
