Due to COVID-19 pandemic, institutions are establishing a new normal in education, shifting from face-to-face instruction to use of cloud-based educational systems. As schools are slowly moving to online learning, San Pablo Colleges, Inc. partnered with Globe for the use of an innovative platform known as Brightspace Learning Management System (LMS).
The school secured Brightspace (LMS) licenses and integrated it with the Alternative Home/Hybrid Education and Asynchronous Distance Learning (AHEAD) platform. With AHEAD, students can continue with their education anytime and anywhere while still ably guided by their teachers.
“We’ve partnered with Globe for almost four years now, and, so far, it has been a good partnership. What had started as direct Wi-Fi for the school has evolved into acquiring additional products such as subscriptions for Zoom which has been helpful for staff meetings and classes, Globe Amber Auto SMS, training for G Suite, and the Brightspace LMS,” shares Prof. Carmela Maria Cielito Eala, Vice President for Administrative Affairs and Human Resource Director of San Pablo Colleges, Inc.
Prof. Eala adds that with the help of Globe’s reliable team, the school has acquired the technology needed to step up and deliver quality online education in the new normal. The partnership has transitioned from providing simple connectivity to offering a trusted and reliable means of communication within the institution.
