About a week ago I was invited to a one-of-a-kind learning experience which will be utilized by ETON International School come June of this year, in time to open the school year. This is one of its definitive ways to improve teaching and learning for their students which is called 3D technology. We were able to meet Ms. Jacqueline Marzan-Tolentino, Ph.D, President/Founder of ETON International here in the Philippines and some of their high-caliber instructors who incessantly engage with us for us to have a brief yet concise experience of the technology they have just acquired through Microdata Systems. It was just unimaginable that three-dimensional materials which are primarily used in doing special effects in most of the movies we watch nowadays will be incorporated as a medium in teaching. We are speaking high-tech and we have just experienced it.
Here at the audio-visual room, along with my co-bloggers Ms. Joy and Mr. Vince, we were able to experience the state-of-the-art 3D technology that has been marveling us that morning. We expect it to be something really incredible that we wish all schools in the Philippines be equipped with this kind of technology. However, Eton International School will be the very first school in the country to use the laudable e-learning software called Eureka. The term or exclamation attributed to Archimedes, who is said to have cried out "Eureka! eureka!" which means I have found it! I have found it!. Perhaps Microsystems Data has found the cure for improving our education in the Philippines. As a matter of fact the said 3D software is an essential part of Eton's K-12 education particularly in the fields of Science and Math, in which it covers over 1000 topics of 3D simulations and videos in Chemistry, Biology, Physics and in different areas of Math. With this kind of climate, surely all the students will never stop learning.
