Premier Apple partner Power Mac Center (PMC)\u00a0<\/strong>provided the technology requirements of the\u00a0Provincial Government of Bataan<\/strong>\u00a0in its bid to accelerate capacity-building for its grade school and high school teachers.<\/p>\n

In a recent\u00a0turnover ceremony<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0led by Governor Jose Enrique \u201cJoet\u201d Garcia III, over 4,000 MacBook devices were distributed to Elementary teachers and School Heads, and schools with computer laboratories across Bataan. The province is accelerating the digital transformation of its classrooms by integrating technology. This initiative aims to enhance teaching and learning experiences through the adoption of digital tools and interactive learning platforms.<\/p>\n

\u201cPower Mac Center is honored to extend our education solutions to the local government of Bataan and its dedicated teachers to empower them amid the increasingly tech-driven education setting. We hope to partner with more local governments and members of the academe in our mission to continuously help Filipino students be globally competitive,\u201d said\u00a0PMC Director for Marketing and Product Management Joey Alvarez.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

As a valued Education partner, the Bataan government enjoys PMC\u2019s special support in overall servicing, from product procurement and priority service and repair to technical training for teachers, school principals, and IT personnel. This covers topics that explore the possibilities of teaching and learning with Mac and foundational resources that will help them innovate in their classroom.<\/p>\n

Such investment is ultimately expected to make students in Bataan more competitive and equip them with the digital skills required in the workplace now and in the future.<\/p>\n

\u201cAlam natin na makakatulong ito sa inyong pagtuturo, paggawa ng inyong mga<\/em>\u00a0lesson plans (We know that this will help you in your teaching, creating your lesson plans),\u201d said\u00a0Bataan Vice Governor Ma. Cristina Garcia.<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0\u201cMakakaasa po kayo at ipinagmamalaki ko sa iba pang mga<\/em>\u00a0Vice Governor\u00a0sa ibang probinsya na talagang ang ating SEF o<\/em>\u00a0special education fund\u00a0ay talaga namang ramdam sa ating lalawigan ng Bataan, at talagang ibinibigay natin yung parte\u00a0para sa ating<\/em>\u00a0education system (Rest assured and I proudly tell Vice Governors in other provinces that our SEF or special education fund is fully harnessed in our province of Bataan, and we are really giving the share for our education system).\u201d<\/p>\n

The event was actually the second installment of device turnovers, following the success of the initial implementation benefiting no less than 2,500 junior and senior high school teachers and Division supervisors in 2023.<\/p>\n
