e-Learning modules for the out-of-school youth and adults

Drs. David and Leyma Cero are two of the seven instructional designers (IDs) of Cavite State University in the eSkwela Content Development Project of the Commision on Information and Communications Technology (CICT). As IDs, they are tasked to convert the print modules of the Department of Education - Bureau of Alternative Learning System (DepEd-BALS) to digital form for the out-of-school youth and adults in the country. Specifically, the IDs develop the concept/theme that will be applied in the module and write the corresponding storyboards and scripts that will guide the developers (graphic artists, media editors and programmers) of the project.

"The eSkwela Project is envisioned to empower out-of-school youth and adults to be globally competitive through the effective use of ICT in alternative learning. With eSkwela's ICT-enabled environment, Filipino out-of-school youths and adults can attain basic education competence and life skills."

Dr. Camilo A. Polinga is the project manager of CvSU. The University is developing a total of 58 modules. Six outputs were already certified by the DepEd-BALS and CICT.
