The Commission on Information and Communications Technology held an online writing seminar last Nov. 14-16, 2007 at Hillside Resort Puerto Princesa, Palawan with representatives from partner State Colleges and Universities (SUCs) attending.
Anchored on the ischools project of the commission, the seminar is intended to train the partner SUCs in writing news, features, opinion and columns, post pictures and many others online relevant to the progress of the project.
Yvonne Chua, from UP Diliman, and Luz Rimban, from the Philippine Center for Investigative Journalism, were the invited speakers and trainers for the whole duration of the program. They gave inputs on how best to utilize and maximize online technology in journalistic writings which will come in handy especially when the ischool project starts in full swing anytime soon.
As the highlight of the activity, the participants were asked to design their own institutional blogs where all the outputs of the three-day activity will be posted. It was also explained that the blogs of the partner institutions will be used as readily accessible means of keeping tabs on the progress of the projects across the archipelago.
The activity was organized by Prof. Nilo Banlawe of Palawan State University, and the ischools Project Manager in the same institution.
