PROJECT: BASIC COMPUTER LITERACY PROGRAM FOR TEACHERS (BCLPT) I. TITLE

II. DESCRIPTION

:

BASIC COMPUTER LITERACY PROGRAM FOR TEACHERS

:

Basic Computer Literacy Program for Teachers (BCLPT) is an approach to equip the teachers of Atisan Elementary School with the basic skills in data encoding, manipulation and application of computer programs and softwares in implementing computer-assisted instruction across all subjects (English, Mathematics, Science and Health, Filipino and MAKABAYAN). LEAD IMPLEMENTER

Mr. MELVIN A. ALMARIO Elem ent ary School Principal I

III. RATIONALE: The guidelines for the effective implementation of elementary curriculum in the Philippines clearly stated that the use of Information and Communication Technology in instruction will help develop learners to be empowered in a rapid changing world (DepEd, 2009). This directive of the department mandated all the public elementary schools in the country to use learning equipments and materials which includes computer programs that are educational, interactive and experiential. Studies showed that the use of computers and educational softwares in teaching has a significant impact in pupils’ learning outcomes (Fritz, 2009). Pupils were highly motivated and focused in any lesson which involves manipulation of computers and teachers act as facilitators of learning rather than talking all throughout the lesson. THE SITUATION Currently, 2 out of 7 teachers of the Atisan Elementary School have background in basic data encoding and computer operation. Of the 4 intermediate teachers who handle Grades IV-VI classes, 2 do not have any background on computer operations.

1 i

This includes the teacher who handles EPP classes that have basic computer lessons incorporated in the curriculum. THE SOLUTION The BCLPT which was included in the Computer-Assisted Instruction Program (CAIP) of the school will train teachers the fundamentals of computer operations and provide prior skills in integrating computer manipulations in teaching. IV. OBJECTIVES: General Objective

: Improve teachers competencies through school LAC sessions focusing on Basic Computer Literacy.

Specific Objectives

: 1. Train 5 of 7 teachers including the Preschool teacher the basic computer operations using the Microsoft’s eLearning Productivity Programs through school LAC sessions. 2. Update the teachers on new trends in teaching using computer programs and softwares. 3. Revisit EPP PELC focusing on Basic Computer Operations.
