The Results and Findings include the Benefits from 3 perspectives: From MAAP WG member/coordinator (experience and observation); From MAAP officers, faculty, and staff (observation, interview, and questionnaire), and the MAAP students' perspectives (Observation and interviews) . The benefits were analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively. The benefits have been summarized using the acronym IAMU-PAES -P for easy recall.
or challenges as P. The paper ends with concluding remarks and recommendations. References are also cited.
This report forms part of Outcome 1 of the IMPADA project: to ascertain “criteria for measuring adult
education effectiveness on disadvantaged groups”.
The main goal of this research was therefore to explore and recognise what may form the key criteria for
measuring the effectiveness of adult education. These criteria will then be developed into a framework that
can be used by adult education providers to assess their current provision and further embed good practice, to
facilitate increased effectiveness of adult education for disadvantaged groups.
The research focused around two key questions:
1. What does “effectiveness of education” look like?
2. How can this be measured?
Answers to these questions will enable practitioners to better understand the challenges faced by
disadvantaged groups, ensure that interventions are put in place to improve its effectiveness, and ensure that
these are measured.
Staying competitive in the IT field
is a challenge. The use of IT certification programs
involves a number of critical issues and implications
for higher educational institutions (HEIs), educators,
administrators, students, and the IT industry. Hence,
there is a compelling need to gather and share IT
certification program data to chart a comparative
analysis across HEIs that are using certification
programs. This study presents a summary of key
findings among the Bachelor of Science in Computer
Science (BSCS) students in the Lyceum of the
Philippines University Batangas’ performance and
satisfaction level in Computer Networking 1, the
first course in the four-course certification program.It
used the descriptive method of research. Respondents
of the study were the 71 BSCS second year students
who took the course during the Second Semester
of SY 2009-2010. Frequency distribution, Pearson R
and weighted mean were used for data analysis. The
performance and satisfactory level the students gave to learning performance in Computer Networking
1 addresses their learning experiences and was an
evidence of the pedagogical richness of the program
and the contribution of the Computer Networking 1
teacher. In conclusion, the course actively engaged the
students and a clear understanding of the subject were
achieved.

Evaluation
Primary goals of the evaluation
1. In projects, the evaluation has importance because of analysis of the process of implementation which determines the effectiveness of processes, in bulling perspective the results of the percentage of the decline in such events would determine the effectiveness of the program.
2. The evaluation also helps in the determination of the quality of the work done, in bulling, what was the methods which was used to stop bulling, whether they were permanent or temporary?
3. The evaluation provides with the insight of the activities which are going in the program, this helps in enhancing the program and changing the decision made which don’t suit the scenario.
Issues in implementing the programs
1. One major issue in the implementation of the program is that the parents of the children responsible for bullying, don’t accept the fault of their children and blaming the authorities in exchange for torturing their child.
2. The reporting of the events of the bullying is itself the problem, as in most of the cases, the bullying is not reported in the schools, which may result in the ineffectiveness of the anti-bulling programs.
3. There is lack of cooperation from the rest of the student body who may know the realities of the events inside that had happened. The student shows no cooperation to the concerning authorities.
Overcoming the issues effectively
In response to the non-supportive behavior of the parents, the school authorities need to act in the positive manner to get the parents under confidence regarding their child’s behavior. This can be done through the use of the evidences which can prove the wrong behavior of their child in the school. The evidences may be the CCV footage or the eye witness, like other students in the school. This will be helpful in stopping the bulling through the cooperation of the parents.
As another issue is the non-reporting of the bullying events by the victim himself/herself is very problematic as the events of the bulling will not be reported but its effects will prevail on the minds of the victim will be reflecting. Specially in schools the studies of the victim students may decline. The school students should be taught about the benefits what they can provide to other through reporting, as reporting is not just for the only one person but it will be helpful in making the environment friendlier and favorable for education.
The other students who are not reporting the events of bulling may also become the cause of the decrease in the efficiency of the program. The students must be educated on the mass level in the school regarding the responsibility which they have over the sightedness of the event of bulling. They should be taught that it’s the contribution towards the betterment of the ...

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.
