Updates in 2010

It's been awhile since I updated these pages. September 2009-March 2010 were very busy months for me. First there was the devastating Typhoon Ondoy. It gave me the chance do urgent and dispersed volunteer work because the people, the families that need support were just too many.

Next, I was also part of the DLSU-CCS Technical Team that evaluated and monitored the Automated Election Systems in the Philippines; engaged in training roadshows, and served as one of the resource persons on the side of DLSU. This AES study was initiated by the Lasallian Justice and Peace Commission and by the College of Computer Studies of De La Salle University.

In parallel with the AES activities, I have been doing the preparations for the Touchpoint 2010 International Conference on Technology in Education as Conference Secretariat.

I am no superhero. But I guess the energy and the momentum keep me on my toes to just keep going. I am blessed to have very supportive supervisors like Mr. Oliver Malabanan, Mr. Sherwin Ona, Ms. Chari Cheng and Dr. Rachel Roxas. Along the way I was also blessed (again) with reliable support staff like Ms. Hazel Ventura and Mr. Roger Damo. And I had good working relationship with Mr. Rene Molano, Ms. Stef Ulit, Mr. Glenn Sipin, Ms. Christine Tavera and of course, Ms. Marivic Tangkeko as we accomplish our goals together.

And for school year 2010, several of my projects are focused on community-based disaster risk reduction.
