To provide a new normal platform of innovation to the stakeholders of BJNHS through teaching,
learning, and organizational transformations
by: Adrian C. Hernandez, Head Teacher, Ilaya Barangka Integrated School
Data collection of SDO-Mandaluyong is going virtual.
In line with the efforts of the Curriculum Implementation Division (CID), headed by Dr. Alyn G. Mendoza, to consolidate data efficiently for better and effective decision-making, SDO-Mandaluyong launched CIDigital: Digitalization of Curriculum Implementation last February 18, 2019 at The Legend Villas. It is a first of its kind initiative program of CID that will virtualize the curriculum implementation in the division.
Aside from efficient consolidation of data, this program also aims to minimize bureaucracy and eliminate redundancy in data collection. In addition, this program plans to create consistent location of resources across the division.
To achieve these, the CID tapped Mr. John Darryll S. Mercado, Information Technology Officer I, to create Teachers’ Resources Portal, an online site powered by Google Suite for Education.
In this portal, all public school teachers in Mandaluyong can encode information needed by the CID. For now, initial available dashboards include Teacher’s Profile, Training Attended, Self-Assessment Tool (SAT), Classroom Observation Tool and LAC Sessions. Teachers can expect additional comprehensive dashboards in the portal as the site is being developed. It will also become a learning resource portal where teachers can easily download resources and LRDMS-approved instructional materials created by Mandaluyong teachers.
CIDigital is a great extensive tool that will benefit not only the Curriculum Implementation Division but also the different sections and units of SDO-Mandaluyong in creating meaningful programs to better serve the teachers and to provide quality education to all Mandaleño students.
The Right Resources for Education
The Learning Resources Management and Development System (LRMDS) is designed to support increased distribution and access to learning, teaching and professional development resources at the Region, Division and School/Cluster levels of DepED.
The LRMDS provides access to quality resources from the Regions, Divisions, Cluster/School level: including,
information on quantity and quality and location of textbooks and supplementary materials, and cultural expertise,
access to learning, teaching and professional development resources in digital format and locates resources in print format and hard copy,
standards, specifications and guidelines for assessing & evaluating, acquiring & harvesting, modification, development and production of resources
It is also a quality assurance system providing support to DepED Regions, Divisions and Schools in the selection and acquisition of quality digital and non-digital resources in response to identified local educational needs.
What is the E-Saliksik Research Portal?
The E-Saliksik Research Portal is the central repository for education research in the Department of Education. The Portal was developed with the purpose of making education research more accessible to aid evidence-based actions and encourage the conduct and use of research from school to the national level through the sharing of knowledge.
Why do we need to archive research?
Archiving research will aid in preserving significant data, promoting knowledge sharing, ensuring research continuity, and providing transparency of findings.
What content can I find on the Portal?
The Portal mostly contains education research. This research includes projects funded by DepEd and those completed by DepEd offices, personnel, and partners. The Portal also hosts research bulletins, which are short reports on research projects produced for broader public consumption.
How does research get archived in the Portal?

How can I be sure about the quality of the research featured on the Portal?
The Department has established a quality control process for completed research defining the minimum standards of a quality research and adopting a tool to assess quality of completed research.
I am not a DepEd-based researcher. Can I request that my research be archived in the Portal?
Yes. DepEd will host education research by non-DepEd/external researchers which are consistent with its research priorities. DepEd will call for external research submissions, which will be archived in the Portal upon passing the quality control process.
Who owns or holds the copyright for studies uploaded in the Portal?
Copyright/ownership remains with the researchers/authors, unless stated otherwise in the report. DepEd-funded studies are co-owned by the Department of Education and the fund grantees or report authors.
