#Globe DepEd

Globe Telecom has announced that it has donated 1,000 Globe At Home Prepaid WiFi modems to support of DepEd's Distance Learning program. Globe At Home's donation of 1,000 prepaid WiFi modems is part of its WiFi2Teach program to help DepEd equip selected public school teachers with connectivity, enabling them to teach through online platforms despite the current global health crisis. WiFi2Teach is also part of the telco’s ongoing efforts and contribution under the Brigada ng Ayala - Ayala Group of Companies' group-wide participation in the DepEd’s Oplan Balik Eskwela (OBE) and Brigada Eskwela (BE) programs. “The migration to digital learning poses a lot of challenges for us at DepEd and most especially to public schools and teachers who commonly have limited access to the Internet and online learning tools,” shared Abraham Abanil, Director at DepEd. Back in April, Globe has also launched its Globe eLibrary platform with DepEd to give K-to-12 students, educators, and parents around the country free and quick access to hundreds of ebooks and educational videos. Globe and TM users may now access the Department of Education's online learning platform DepEd Commons free of data charges. DepEd Commons is open to teachers and students, containing online review materials and Open Educational Resources (OER) by public school teachers.
