Will the Duterte administration continue these stalled projects? Getting PPP projects from advertisements to the tarmac seems to take ages. Projects to develop 5 regional airports, build a modern jail facility, and construct the country's first subway were also shelved by their implementing agencies.
I follow trends in education technology for my work. Not only in the Philippines but also in other countries. This led me to this online article.
Large population, thousands of islands, language origin, and about same level of maturity of government. Some Indonesians might disagree given the popularity and clean image of Joko Widodo. But this is my perception and I am talking of government in general. The article piqued my interest because I wanted to know if we can learn anything from PPP in Indonesia.
It laid out the basic problem. This includes facilities for the education sector. Any support from the private sector would be welcome.
Enter Samsung and Quipper. According to the article, for every purchase of Samsung Galaxy Tab, students would get free access to Quipper videos for one year. This reminded me of a similar deal in the Philippines. Public secondary schools received free Internet connection for one year. The company was hoping public schools would pay the monthly subscription after that.
I think most schools wanted to continue the subscription. The problem, at that time, was there was no line item in the school budget to use for Internet. So the principals and the teachers ended up using their own money to pay the unpaid bills.
DepEd resolved the problem eventually because like all humans, we learn from experience.
But the way we approach PPP in edtech remains the same. But the problem begins after a year. The government looks the other way around. And everyone is back to where they began.
I still believe PPP is still the key for edtech to become effective in any country. Singapore provides an example of a mature PPP. Rather than producing all digital contents in-house, the MOE has collaborated with the ICT industry to produce digital learning resources, for example, with Times Media Pte.
To expand students' learning experience, Students have, for instance, captured digital photos and videos, edited them with multimedia authoring tools and developed Web pages to report their learning experiences".Public Private Partnership Center, Quezon City, Philippines.
