Educational institutions hurdle constant challenges and changes. However, the challenge brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic was different and difficult—with schools struggling to transition to eLearning.
For Santiago Trillana Academy (STA), the pandemic was a welcome challenge that pushed the school to partner with Globe for their Brightspace Learning Management System (LMS) which is vital for digital education.
Through the partnership, the school secured Brightspace LMS licenses for its students and staff for the school year 2020 to 2021. The platform will serve as a tool for both learners and teachers in the creation and compilation of lessons, as well as resource materials.
Additionally, the LMS tool integrates both synchronous and asynchronous learning through video assignments, virtual classrooms, video notes, and ePortfolio.
“Using various instructional modalities including the digital platform called Brightspace, we are journeying into the greater world of advanced education. Brightspace is being used in leading universities around the world including Harvard University where I graduated in 1995. The beginning, it is said, is uncertain. But the future is certain. And the future is beautiful,” says Dr. Pablo Trillana III, Chairman of STA.
Located in Hangonoy, Bulacan, STA is a private non-sectarian academic institution with the mission of educating the young and helping each individual progress in wholeness. The school offers quality education with an emphasis on the promotion of physical, moral, spiritual, and intellectual development of its students.
STA implements the complete basic education of K-12 Program of the DepEd from Preschool to Senior High School under Academic Strand on ABM, GAS and STEM.
By bridging teachers to information and technology that enable continuous learning, especially during times of crisis, Globe continues to prove itself an invaluable partner in promoting 21st Century Learning and in improving resilience in education.
