The document discusses a study assessing the implementation and performance of the Alternative Learning System (ALS) program in Region XII of the Philippines. The study found that both the Basic Literacy Program and Accreditation and Equivalency System components of ALS were well implemented. While both programs performed excellently in terms of efficiency, the Accreditation and Equivalency System had better performance in terms of access. Additionally, the study determined that funding was insufficient and posed a major challenge to implementation. The document recommends increasing funding and support to strengthen the ALS program.

The purpose of this Programme Exit Survey (PES) was to provide data to gauge perceptions of various aspects of programmes and services offered and to identify areas where improvements may be needed in the Department of Electrical Engineering (JKE), Politeknik Kota Kinabalu (PKK). This PES was conducted on 43 final semester students, graduating from Diploma in Electronic Engineering (Communication) (DEP). They were the first Cohort whose intake was in June 2010. The survey questionnaire had five main sections: respondents’ profile; assessment of overall quality; assessment of skills and knowledge; assessment of Lecturers and Academic Advisor; and assessment of academic resources and facilities. The assessment of the overall quality, attribute for teaching and learning experience was rated 94% with “very good” and “good”. Skills and knowledge section was evaluated by relating the statements with nine items as stated in the Programme Learning Outcomes (PLO). All the PLOs’ were marked at least “adequate” by 99.8% of the students. Assessment on lecturers and academic advisor were rated 46.53% as “very good” and 49.78% as “good”. In terms of academic resources and facilities, the access to Wi-Fi had the highest unsatisfactory concerned from the respondent whereby 30.2% rated the item as “marginal”.

The objective of the study is to examine the faculty members’ perspective (qualification wise) of parameters affecting the quality of education in an affiliated undergraduate engineering institution in Haryana. The research is a descriptive type of research in nature. The data has been collected with the help of Questionnaire Based Survey. The sample size for the study is 110 comprising of the faculty respondents. The sample has been taken on the random (Probability) basis and the questionnaire was filled by the faculty members (teaching B.Tech) chosen on the random basis from an affiliated undergraduate engineering institution in Haryana. For data analysis and conclusion of the results of the survey, statistical tool like f test was performed with the help of high quality software; SPSS. To conclude, the faculty members’ perceptions about the “Selection Process”, “Academic Excellence”, “Infrastructure”, “Personality Development and Industry Exposure” and “Management and Administration”, does not change according to their level of qualification in the affiliated undergraduate engineering institution in Haryana.

For distance learners, continuous official education is very important for improving knowledge and learning experience to meet the career challenges in the modern world. This work studies the success factors which affect the use of LMS and evaluates the ability to apply the proposed model in the field of distance learning (DL) particularly in higher education. The survey was carried out on higher education learners who were included in the DL instructions. This work has utilized a questionnaire that was modified from literature to inspect three measurements, system design, system usage, and system outcome. Utilizing the obtained survey data for students of DL (N=149), the path analysis discovered that the design of the system has a significant effect on the satisfaction of users and intention for using LMS which affects the use of the system. Consequently, the satisfaction of users and the system used has a great impact on the net benefit.

Francesca Gottschalk - How can education support child empowerment.pptxEduSkills OECD
Francesca Gottschalk from the OECD’s Centre for Educational Research and Innovation presents at the Ask an Expert Webinar: How can education support child empowerment?
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
