IV. PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The project is an effort proposed by Info.Tech. program of ESSU Guiuan campus extension
unit to impact knowledge and skills on “Computer Literacy” to a sector of community.

V. RATIONALE

Extension is a fundamental function of every state university or college, along with

instruction, research and production. Institutions of higher learning in the Philippines are
mandated by the constitution to deliver services to the community based on their capabilities
and their own resources. De Leon (2008) emphasized in his book that in order for an educational
system to give meaningful reality to its membership in the national society and to enrich its civic
participation in program undertaking, they should extend their hands to educationally deprived
communities.

The Eastern Samar State University-Guiuan (ESSU), as an educational system has been
actively involved in the extension and community services for several years now. The institution
has been experiencing positive developments in becoming an active partner of several
government and non-government institutions. Through its extension programs, which are the
integration of all the extension programs and projects of its different colleges and campuses, its
goal of improving and creating positive change in the lives of the members of its extension
partners are realized.

The Information Technology Program, as one of the Programs of Eastern Samar State
University has taken its part in responding to the need of the community according to the
university’s Vision and Mission. The college has been recognized for its aggressive participation
and significant contributions to the different aspects of life. It has developed a comprehensive
extension program to demonstrate to the community the relevance of its academic programs for
the improvement of quality of life of its adopted communities.

The computer literacy programs for the Barangay Official of Mercedes Eastern Samar will
provide the participants seminar/training on basic and advanced computer lessons and
applications. The program consists of a series of trainings aimed to improve the performance of
the participants in doing their work as Barangay Officials. And though the trainings always ended
 successfully, this extension had to be carried out to determine the effectiveness as well as the
weaknesses/shortcomings of the said program. In the end, the knowledge and skills learned by
the participants in the program will help them improve their behavior and in their work.
VI. PROGRAM OBJECTIVES

The objectives of this program are as follows:

1. To create interest to computer based systems among Barangay Officials.
2. To spread computer literacy
3. To motivate Barangay Officials to participate in computer activities.
4. To reduce digital divide to some extent.
