Subject: VIRTUAL PROMOTION OF OFFICIAL PLATFORMS FOR BLENDED LEARNING (DEPED COMMONS, DEPED TV, DEPED LEARNING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM [LMS], DEPED EDTECH COURSES [ETULAY], DEPED TV YOUTUBE CHANNEL, AND DEPED PHILIPPINES AND DEPED TAYO FACEBOOK PAGE)

The Office of the Undersecretary for Administration (OUA) enjoins all Regional Offices (ROs), Schools Division Offices (SDOs) and schools in Visayas and Mindanao to promote the official platforms of the Department of Education (DepEd) related to the blended learning framework.

In this connection, representatives of the Information and Communication Technology Service - Educational Technology (ICTS-EdTech) Unit will virtually introduce and promote the following platforms in coordination with Regional and Division Information Technology Officers:

1. DepEd Commons - https://commons.deped.gov.ph .
2. DepEd TV 
3. DepEd Learning Management System (LMS) -  http://lms.deped.gov.ph/ .
4. DepEd EdTech Courses (ETULAY) - 
5. DepEd TV YouTube Channel –  https://youtube.com/c/DepEdTV .
6. DepEd Philippines Facebook Page-  https://facebook.com/DepartmentOfEducation.PH/ .
7. DepEd Tayo Facebook Page - https://face book.com/depedtayo/ .

There is a need to emphasize that learners and parents/guardians who have opted for Modular Learning (use of printed SLMs) can still watch and access other available platforms to complement and reinforce learning. First, DepEd TV is available for those with televisions, cable TV subscriptions, digital black boxes and satellite TV. Second, they may access DepEd Commons through mobile phones even without credits (load) and internet connection. Third, they may watch DepEd TV episodes through the listed Facebook pages if they have mobile phones. End users may do so without data charges. Lastly, they may access the DepEd TV YouTube Channel if they have internet connection.

DepEd Commons and DepEd TV YouTube channel will enable video on demand 24/7 – learners, teachers, and parents may watch and download these videos at any time and/or repeatedly.

Through everyone’s collaborative effort, the Department can ensure the successful delivery of education to all learners in the new normal.

The ICTS-EdTech Unit, headed by Mr. Mark Anthony C. Sy and represented by Ms. Aprellene B. Marquez (email address: apprellene.marquez001@deped. gov.ph ) will coordinate with concerned offices to set the online meeting schedule and other details for the said promotion of platforms.

For wide dissemination and appropriate action.
ALAIN DEL B. PASCUA
Undersecretary
