REBISCO aids DepEd on continued learning during the pandemic
Keeping the Filipino bayanihan
spirit alive, the Republic Biscuit Corporation (REBISCO) recently launched
new programs to aid the continued education of school children during the
pandemic. As the Department of Education (DepEd) pushes for online learning at
home to curb the spread of the virus, REBISCO has come up with a series of
learning materials in various formats that both educators and students can use.
Supplementary Learning
Kits
Last July, REBISCO began its distribution of supplementary learning
kits to 240 public schools in NCR. The kit contains school materials such as
pencils, crayons, and other basic school supplies. According to Quezon City,
Pasay, and Las Piñas school divisions, REBISCO is the first private stakeholder
to respond to DepEd’s “Bayanihan Para Sa
Paaralan” which seeks for support from private sectors in producing modified
learning materials fit for home education. As the effects of the global
pandemic were utterly unexpected, support from private entities are very
crucial in accomplishing all planned activities for restructuring and
reorganizing the education system to cope with the changes.
Activity Worksheets
Supplementary activity worksheets were also produced by REBISCO and
will be incorporated into the printed modules that the DepEd will distribute to
students once the school year officially starts on October 5. These will reach
351 thousand learners from the early grade.
Instructional Videos For
Teachers, Parents, and Learners
REBISCO is also instrumental in producing instructional videos to
help educators navigate the new technologies to be used in virtual teaching.
The two video materials are for DepEd Commons and DepEd LMS.
The DepEd Commons is an online library portal of learning materials
accessible to public and private school students from Kinder up to Grade 12.
The DepEd LMS is a virtual classroom where educators can facilitate
the class and check
real-time activities, among others.
Instructional Videos
For Students
REBISCO is also leading in the production of branded video
materials that can further reinforce learning among young grade schoolers.
These videos will be made available on DepEd’s website https://commons.deped.gov.ph/ and will include the following
instructional videos for students: REBISCO Hand Eatiquette, Topps
SarapBalikEskwela tips, Frootees’ The Frooteam, and The Hanchies from Hansel
Sandwich.
“For many years, REBISCO has enjoyed the untiring patronage of
Filipino consumers, particularly the parents whose children would often bring
our products to school as their baon.
During this time when kids are forced to stay home and miss out on the learning
opportunities, they can only get from attending school, we felt the need to
help so our children can continue their development. Through these
supplementary materials that we have provided the DepEd, we hope that our
school children will be inspired to continue their quest for learning and education
and be motivated to strive and do well even under challenging circumstances,”
said Rey Delos Reyes, Rebisco’s Senior Vice President for Marketing.
