November 28-29, 2024 – JHCSC School of Teacher Education (STE) student researchers participated in the 1st National Educational Technology Congress, hosted by the Academic Scholars Hub (ASH) and held online, with 32 schools from the Philippines and two (2) schools from the US joining the event. The congress, themed “Enhancing Teaching and Learning Through Innovation, Digital Tools, and Emerging AI Technologies,” featured various projects aimed at revolutionizing education using digital tools.
Two of the standout presentations were by Clear Sayre, Diana Lee Calipay, and Cyra Jane Consolacion, who introduced their research study titled “Wave Quest: An Educative Board Game in Teaching Characteristics of Waves in Physics for Grade 7 Learners,” and the EclipSim Augmented Reality (AR) in teaching Astronomy for Grade 7, presented by Dexter Clamohoy and his team. Their projects explored the use of educative supplementary materials to teach the least mastered science topics in Physics and Astronomy to Grade 7 students.
Guided by their research adviser, Ralph Magumpara, MSciEd, the researchers sought to develop a more engaging and interactive learning experience for students, highlighting the potential of explorative learning materials in enhancing understanding in science education. The projects were well-received, showcasing the ability of emerging technologies to transform traditional teaching methods.
Other contributors from the JHCSC team included Rea Mae Ratilla, Dailyn Tagbo, Felmarie Alla, Jecil Mae Jemera, Rhea Mae Dingal, Sheina Benting, Eugine Anthony, Jenevev Dingal, Jezyl Busmeon, and Novie Cañete.
Their work not only contributed to the advancement of educational technology but also underscored the institution’s commitment to fostering innovation in teaching and learning. This accomplishment highlights JHCSC’s role as a leader in promoting technology-driven educational solutions.
