Photo op with the inspiring School Research Coordinators of Bacarat National High School, Sikap Elem Schl ,Bito Elementary School, Tomarumun Primary School, Timbangalan Elem.School and Sultan Conding Elementary School whose presence implies their obedience to directives from duly delegated authorities and their support to the research activities/initiatives of our division. Thanks also to Lake Lanao National High School, Marawi City National High School, and Angoyao National High School for previously sending their School Research Coordinators. Kudos to their School Heads and District Supervisors for the support.
Research may be the least prioritized program but its significance to education or to any field can never be discounted. Sound policies and programs are products of evidence-based studies,...of RESEARCH! 😍

We're supposed to have our reorganization of the School Research Coordinators Association which aims for collaboration to promote the culture of research among teachers and students. However, others did not show up so the acitvity was rescheduled for next week.
We had brainstorming of challenges instead. Listened to their ideas on how these challenges may be addressed.

Aiming to make EVERY CHILD A RESEARCHER! However,to have this realized, we have to make EVERY TEACHER A RESEARCHER first!

Whatcha think?😁

Conversation about research matters with Sir Mahid Romato, Senior High School Research teacher of Marawi City High School (MCNHS) who's an asset to MCNHS and the entire CSDM. In fact, he was awarded as Paramanis Excellent Senior High School Teacher last August of this year by the Division PRAISE Committee.

Casual conversation with Nashria M. Dimapunung, Research Coordinator of Lake Lanao National High School (LLNHS). Conversation revolves around the possible activities that may be held in LLNHS and the persons to be engaged for the realization of the activities in order to help develop the Culture of Research in schools. Ma'am Nashria is such a brilliant teacher full of bright ideas which is not suprising being a Ph.D.student of MSU-ISEd.
Thanks Principal Dr.Rohanida Mutin for the support.😍
