RIDGING TRADITION & INNOVATION: Welcome to Project MED-AI-CINE! π€πΏ
We are thrilled to officially introduce Project MED-AI-CINE: An AI-Powered Herbal Wellness Hub at Felizardo C. Lipana National High School! π«β¨
Adjacent to the School Clinic, this eco-technological sanctuary is not just a gardenβit is a living, breathing 21st-century classroom where nature meets artificial intelligence to promote health, inclusivity, and climate-smart innovation. ππ
π What makes Project MED-AI-CINE truly unique?
π€ High-Tech Botanical Literacy: We have cultivated 24 medicinal plant species, each mapped with custom, interactive QR codes. By utilizing free, no-code machine learning frameworks like Google Teachable Machine, our ICT Student Tech Leaders have trained a dynamic database securing a 90%+ AI image recognition rate! π²π»
π€ Inclusive & Therapeutic Leadership: We believe in education for all. Our Special Needs Education (SNED) learners serve proudly as our morning Therapeutic Garden Custodians, engaging in sensory-rich morning care that supports their motor-skill and cognitive growth. πΈβοΈ
β±οΈ Zero-Disruption to Academic Hours: To preserve regular instructional blocks, our shifts are strictly synchronizedβphysical care happens before classes (6:30 AM - 6:55 AM), while database maintenance is done by our Science and ICT leaders after dismissal (4:00 PM - 4:30 PM). β°βοΈ
β»οΈ Built at Zero Cost to Parents: The entire hub's physical structure is built from 100% upcycled materials (discarded tires, stagnant hollow blocks, and old buckets). We also utilize localized rainwater harvesting traps and natural green waste composting, co-managed by our active weekday PTA volunteers and school janitor! ππ§οΈ
π Closed-Loop Sustainability: In the upcoming school year, our organic harvests will be processed into MED-AI-CINE Soothing Ointments to directly supply our School Clinic! π©Ήπ‘
