The ASCOT-School of Education (SOED) and the Center for Educational Research and Resource Development Services (CERRDS) continue their commitment to fostering a culture of academic rigor and scholarly engagement. In a dynamic collaboration with the Comparative Education and Student Critical Leadership Society (CESCLS) and Lakbay Pananaliksik, SOED and CERRDS hosted an international research session titled "Systematic Review Methodology: A Rigorous Approach to Evidence Synthesis".

This initiative was designed to strengthen the research capabilities of graduate students, faculty members, and young scholars from various State Universities and Colleges (SUCs) and DepEd schools across the Philippines. Among the around 135 participants are other research experts and young scholars from around the globe.

The session featured international expert Prof. Mohammad Nasim Tahsildar, PhD, an associate professor from Herat University, Afghanistan, who provided participants with a comprehensive understanding of evidence synthesis. Participants were given insights about the practical application of PICO model for formulating focused research questions, utilizing advanced literature search techniques, and the use of PRISMA checklist for the transparent reporting of systematic review findings.

This collaborative effort, spearheaded by CERRDS Director Alfredo C. Padios and supported by ASCOT’s leadership, including SOED Dean, Dr. Rowel G. Olila, and Vice-President for Academic Affairs, Dr. Mayreen V. Amazona, directly contributes to SDG 4: Quality Education and SDG 17: Partnerships for the Goals.

Initiatives like this aimed to successfully build a community of educators, young scholars, and learners who practice and value systematic inquiry and continuous professional development in the evolving landscape of education worldwide.

On March 24, 2026, the School of Education (SoEd) successfully conducted Mulat na Botante, Matatag na Bayan: Voters’ Education and Civic Responsibility Training at Barangay Dibut, San Luis, Aurora as part of the Learning and Empowerment for All People (LEAP) Extension Program. This initiative aimed to empower community voters by strengthening their understanding of their rights, duties, and responsibilities as citizens in a democratic society.

Anchored in SDG 16 – Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions and SDG 5 – Gender Equality, the activity addressed pressing electoral issues such as misinformation, vote-buying, and civic apathy, while promoting informed and ethical participation in elections and inclusive democratic engagement.

The activity featured insightful discussions from distinguished speakers, including Dr. Noriel T. Barangan, who emphasized the importance of voting and how individual participation shapes collective outcomes in a democratic society; Charles R. Velasco, who highlighted the role and voice of women in the electoral process and democratic governance; and Mr. Jefferson T. Bautista, who discussed key election issues such as vote buying and the spread of misinformation, two major challenges that undermine the integrity of elections.

The training also included a hands-on workshop on evaluating candidates, in which participants were encouraged to critically assess candidates based on their platforms, track records, and qualifications rather than on partisan loyalty or incentives.

Through collaborative learning and community engagement, this initiative reaffirmed the vital role of education in building informed voters and strengthening democratic institutions.

Together, we move toward a more empowered citizenry and a stronger nation.

In celebration of National Women’s Month this March, the School of Education proudly held the 3rd installment of the GAD Quiz Bee last March 24, 2026, at the Bulwagang Sen. Edgardo Juan C. Angara.

The GAD Quiz Bee supports the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 4 on Quality Education by promoting meaningful learning experiences, SDG 5 on Gender Equality by strengthening awareness and advocacy for inclusive practices, and SDG 10 on Reduced Inequalities by fostering a more equitable and informed academic community.
