PHYSICAL TARGETS AND ACCOMPLISHMENTS (based on the Project LogFrame) as of 29 April 2011 target accomplished slippage Functional customized ICT4E (ALS) Instructional model Enhanced Framework 1 1 0% eModules & corresponding Module Guides (A&E) developedv (to be used for free) 283 207 (148 of which have been certified by BALS) 27% eModules (others: livelihood & CILC) developed (to be used for free) 61 10 84% Mature/Replicable center model eSkwela Franchise Manual 1 (beta version) 40% Roadshows conducted for advocacy 17 27 0% Operational sites (mostly community initiated) 106 90 + 15 15% Trained/qualified implementers on prescribed instructional model and center operations Training Designs 7 7 0% Trained field implementers 1,884 1,718 9% Established management and M&E mechanisms and tools Mechanisms 4 4 0% Automated Systems 2 2 0%

Challenges
Resistance and apprehension to changes in roles and strategies
facilitation of learning
exploration and experimentation must become habitual
Need for stronger advocacy on ALS and ICT in Education (actual utilization instead of mere deployment)
Recognition of maturity models: ICT competence-and-use, pedagogical/andragogical practices, community-building
Focus on A&E Test rather than life skills
Focus on technical skills rather than content (quality) of outputs
Changes take time
always consider maturity models and handholding mechanisms
still a long way to go…

Site Implementers:
less work = less routine admin work, more work = more facilitative
more open to explore and innovate
appreciation of monitoring and handholding interventions; of synergy and community spirit/ support groups
Learners: free educ, learning is FUN , more engaged, creative, excited; blended approach preferred
flexible, better access to choices (LMS), easier implementation of self-paced learning
ICT-supported PBL = real-life application + 21st C skills + additional income-generating skill
A&E Test Performance eSkwela Average National Average Feb 2008 (4 sites) 57% 29% Oct 2008 (5 sites) 65% 23% Oct 2009 (partial: 9 sites) 46% 21% Oct 2010 (partial: 16 sites) 63% 33%
