ASU conducts website development training

By Nenette D. Repayo

Aklan State University through its Information and Communication Center conducted training on website development from October 9-13.

This training involved the English teachers from two of the seven iSchools beneficiaries in Aklan assigned to ASU as implementer. These are the Aguinaldo T. Repiedad Sr Integrated School, Banga, and the Ibajay National High School, Ibajay. Likewise, the ASU Laboratory High School sent participants to the training.

iSchools is a banner project of the Commission on Information and Communications Technology which is in its second phase of implementation. Its main objective is to support the Government and the Department of Education in its effort to strengthen classroom learning and instruction by incorporating information and communication technology. The project provides beneficiary schools with 21 computers, one-year Internet connectivity, and relevant educators’ training in the effective use of ICT in the education process.

The 5-day activity which focused on the creation of web form, web page design, and web scripts ended with the presentation of the trainees outputs.
