Angara’s AI research initiative drives DepEd’s shift to data-driven reform
The Department of Education (DepEd) is leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) to tackle challenges in data management, leadership appointments, and resource allocation, prioritizing efficiency without increasing teacher workload.
Education Secretary Sonny Angara highlighted that the Education Center for Artificial Intelligence Research (ECAIR) is instrumental in transforming DepEd into a more efficient and data-driven organization.
Angara noted that AI enables more accurate decision-making, which is crucial for the nation's largest bureaucracy with a substantial budget.
Significant improvements in data quality have been observed within a year of ECAIR's inception, though further enhancements are still needed.
ECAIR was established to oversee the responsible integration of AI in education governance, concentrating on systemic issues rather than fleeting technological trends.
