The Curriculum and Instruction Division (CID) convened yesterday with the Provincial Government Office Digitalization Team to discuss the implementation of Project LEARN SMART in the province of Leyte.

The meeting, led by CID Chief Grace G. Villanueva, marked a significant step toward advancing digital education initiatives in the province.

The collaborative dialogue between the two offices centered on the strategic rollout of Project LEARN SMART, underscoring the shared commitment of both the Department of Education and the provincial government to modernize and enhance the learning experience for students across Leyte.

CID Chief Villanueva emphasized the importance of inter-agency cooperation in ensuring the successful implementation of the project, which aims to leverage technology in support of quality education delivery.

Under the leadership of LR Supervisor Ismael Poison and Division Librarian Bella Alberca, and with the valuable assistance of ALS teachers, the continuous technical processing of regionally sourced Supplementary Learning Resources (SLRs) is being carried out to facilitate their systematic distribution to schools for borrowing, ensuring that learners and teachers have timely access to quality reading materials that support instruction and literacy development.

A landmark training program addresses the growing need for quality Filipino-language instruction in junior and senior high schools.

A comprehensive resource package has been developed and undergone rigorous quality assurance for the training of Junior High School (JHS) and Senior High School (SHS) teachers who are assigned to teach Filipino but are not majors in the subject — a widely recognized gap in the Philippine basic education system.

The initiative, formally titled Pagsasanay para sa G**o ng JHS at SHS na Nagtuturo ng Filipino na Hindi Medyor (Training for JHS and SHS Teachers Who Teach Filipino Who Are Not Majors), aims to equip educators with the foundational content knowledge, pedagogical strategies, and instructional materials necessary to deliver Filipino-language education with confidence and competence.

"This resource package bridges a critical gap — ensuring that every Filipino learner, regardless of who stands before them, receives instruction rooted in genuine competence in the national language."
