To cope with the challenges of the different learning delivery models under the new normal, teachers continue to find innovative ways to engage and support learners minus face-to-face engagement.
With this in mind, Rex strengthened its online bookstore over the course of the last months to cater to the changing needs of learners across the country.
The e-store holds numerous titles published by Rex, including textbooks, children’s books, course materials, and Law books – both as printed copies ready to ship anywhere in the Philippines and e-books ready for download.
The online store has made learning much more available and accessible to every Filipino amid the prevailing community quarantine restrictions.
“Laro, Likha, Linang,” a project-based learning resource book developed in partnership with Miriam College, is the first of its kind today. Aligned with the Department of Education’s Curriculum Performance Standards and Classroom Assessment Guidelines, the book compiles authentic performance-based material based on the learning competencies prescribed in the curriculum guide. It contains readily available activities such as Project Overview, 21st Century Matrix Guide, Rubric, and Task Sheets.
With “Laro, Likha, Linang,” schools can easily implement the DepEd-mandated K-12 Classroom Assessment. Since it integrates all subject areas to complete one product output, students are given more opportunities to demonstrate and integrate their knowledge, understanding, and skills about topics or lessons learned in a specific real-life situation.
“My Career Journey” was developed in partnership with the Philippine Guidance and Counseling Association, Inc. (PGCA). Aligned with the mandate of Republic Act No. 11206 to come up with a career guidance program, it features modules on personal, social, academic, and career learning and development. The modules cover social and emotional learning, understanding and managing one’s self, setting and achieving positive goals, feeling and showing empathy for others, and establishing and maintaining positive relationships to make responsible decisions.
Part of the proceeds of the “My Career Journey” books will go to the PGCA advocacy fund for the welfare of the youth, their families, and communities.
“21C Performance Tasks – An Assessment of 21st Century skills and Literacies” features a compilation of authentic performance-based learning competencies prescribed in the DepEd Curriculum guide. It also contains assessments focused on Performance Tasks for the reference of teachers.
Finally, “My Skill Builder” packs a comprehensive set of practice worksheets that supports the development of scientific and mathematical concepts, skills, and processes under the DepEd’s K to 12 Curriculum. It includes quarterly review tests to prepare students in summative examinations, and also enables teachers to perform tasks other than ideating, developing questions, and formatting tests. Its readily available material can be used as a formative assessment to review and determine if intervention is still needed.
