Willing to lend a helping hand

The Knowledge Channel Foundation Inc. (KCFI) is offering to share its video lessons to the millions of learners nationwide, in an effort to support the Department of Education (DepEd) into the shift to distance learning due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

According to KCFI, it should be “given the chance to share with the government its expertise for the sake of the children.”

It can be recalled that Knowledge Channel used to aired over SKYCable, SKYDirect, ABS-CBN TVPlus, and other cable and direct to home satellite TV providers, reaching millions of students.

It can reach as many as 7.6 million students.

The KCFI is one with the DepEd into the belief that learning must continue for all and that no child should be left behind, and that it is prepared to work with the government.

It has, over the years, created and acquired more than a thousand video lessons, all based on the K-12 curriculum of the Department of Education.

The KCFI have also developed and acquired multimedia educational materials that public schools nationwide, especially in remote regions, used to enhance teaching and learning.

These are all ready for use, the KCFI said.

The KCFI has developed into video format 50 percent of the most essential learning competencies (MELC) that DepEd requires to be taught for the school year, and that KCFI can easily develop the remaining 50 percent.

According to data, Knowledge Channel’s method of using TV technology has proven to improve the performance of children in school.
