USAID Turned Over 16 Computers and Trained 100 Teachers in Mindanao to Enhance Technology Skills USAID supported the Philippine Department of Education’s strategic plan for ICT-enhanced professional development of teachers and school officials by turning over 16 computers and peripherals to five public elementary schools in Malapatan, Sarangani Province on August 14, 2009. The turnover followed the training by USAID’s Education Quality and Access for Learning and Livelihood Skills (EQuALLS2) Project, in partnership with Microsoft Philippines, of 100 teachers and administrators on basic computer use to improve school and classroom management and instruction. Malapatan is the second of 10 municipalities in Mindanao that will receive computer training and equipment for a total of 1,000 teachers and administrators by 2011. The trained teachers are then expected to mentor at least 2,000 other teachers.
