ANTIPOLO CITY, Rizal – Earlier, DOST Rizal Provincial S&T Director, Mr. Fernando E. Ablaza, accompanied by Ms. Niña Sherylle S. Giron, Supervising SRS, and Mr. Raphael San Antonio, Science Research Specialist I, made a courtesy call to the Antipolo Schools Division Superintendent, Dr. Lerma L. Flandez. Also in attendance were Mr. Darwin D. Bargo, Education Program Supervisor of SDO Antipolo, and Ms. Rosanna A. Ortiz, School Principal of Antipolo City National Science and Technology High School (ANSCI).
During the meeting, PD Ablaza and his team presented a briefer about the 21st Century Learning Environment Model (21st CLEM) Project Proposal for ANSCI. The 21st CLEM, a project spearheaded by the DOST Science Education Institute (DOST-SEI), is designed to be a learning environment of education, information and communications technology resources and innovations that will serve as a support system to both the K-12 Curriculum and Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) education.
The ANSCI has been identified as one of the target schools for deployment of the 21st CLEM in response to the request for S&T intervention by the Office of Congressman Romeo M. Acop, Representative of 2nd District, Antipolo City.
DOST PSTO Rizal will then be coordinating with the Local Government Unit of Antipolo, alongside existing project collaborators to finalize pre- and implementation activities of the 21st CLEM.
In addition to 21st CLEM updates, PD Ablaza also shared about DOST ASTI’s Resilient Education Information Infrastructure for the New Normal (REIINN) Project, DOST’s scholarship initiatives, and deployment of DOST-STII’s Science and Technology Academic and Research-Based Openly-Operated KioskS (STARBOOKS). Interested parties and individuals are advised to submit a letter of intent addressed to the Provincial S&T Director.|
