Welcome to MOFTECH 1st SY 2009-2010
Welcome Dear Students of MOFTECH!
We had a smooth start with an overview of the importance of MIS, present global trends in doing business, the internet economy and the need for knowledge management and sharing. We heard the reports on the Computer & Communication Trends and the Roles of the CIO and the IS Executives.
Suddenly we were disturbed by the presence of the N1H1 case in the campus (Bulletin : Influenza A H1N1 Virus http://www.dlsu.edu.ph/offices/mds/bulletin/influenza/)
This does not mean we should discontinue our desire to learn more on the subject matter. So please follow the announcements we are going to have in this blog.
We will also have the online meeting on June 10 (1-3pm for S13) and (3-5pm FOR S14). Note that the original online meeting schedule was June 4.
So please take note, our online meeting is on JUNE 10, 2009 - 1-3pm for S13 and 3-5pm FOR S14, MLA TIME.

New IT Research Projects-3rd term 2008-09
As the new terms starts and with the onset of 2009, I have some new worthwhile projects that hopefully will challenge the students too. I will be presenting these research projects as possible ICT projects of the students too on Jan. 27, 5:00pm at the ISR.
1. As the attempt to work on my first CBMS Data Gathering project jumpstarted last term, another similar project will shape. Following a similar model of creating a web portal to gather CBMS data at the barangay level and utilizing/testing SMS technologies, this time the project will collect data in a Filipino Muslim community.
The Filipino Muslims comprise about 5%-8% of the population and one of the minorities in the country. In Metro Manila and in the nearby Calabarzon, some of them have their own communities already. The project will attempt to gather CBMS data (income, health and education) in one or two of their communities and hopefully, create a model of capturing relevant information that will help lawmakers draw policies on poverty alleviation. If the model works, it can be adapted in other barangays or communities.
Relevant Readings:

The Concept of Communities - http://whymanagetech.blogspot.com/2008/09/concept-of-communities.html
A Proposed Decentralized Approach to Gathering CBMS Data - http://whymanagetech.blogspot.com/2008/09/proposed-decentralized-approach-to.html
2. Disaster Management
"The roles of the Disaster Management Services (DMS) are to provide relief in times of disasters and to carry on measures to minimize the suffering caused by them. Disaster preparedness is also a major component of its program that aims to prepare especially the vulnerable communities in the event of calamities." Extracted from the Phil National REd Cross site~Retrieved from http://www.redcross.org.ph/Site/DMS/Home.aspx
Two major tasks of the Phil National Red Cross in DMS will be disaster preparedness and effective relief provision in times of disaster. In this light that two projects are being conceptualized~~
a. Disaster Management Service System
Main Tasks:
Relief Operation
Deployment of Disaster Response Teams
Organization of Barangay Disaster Action Team
Preposition of Relief Supplies
Others: Community Health and Nursing Services, Social Services, Blood Services + Members and Volunteer Management
b. Learning Management System for PNRC
MAIN TASKS: Plan, manage and facilitate the different training programs
Disaster escalation + SMS capabilities
Some of the training and courses offered:
Disaster Management Course Training of Trainers
Standard Disaster Management Training
Basic Disaster Management Training
Disaster Response Team Training (Disaster Response Training)
Community-Based Disaster Management Training
Modular Training in Disaster Management
**Read all the pages of the PNRC website~~ http://www.redcross.org.ph/
c. For the interest of IST students, a courseware or teachware may also be developed in reference to the training and courses offered by PNRC.
INTERESTED GROUPS MAY APPLY IF:
o They have great interest to help/serve the Filipino society;
o Willing to do the project using any or all of the ff~~PhP, MySQL, XML
o Willing to scout, coordinate and liaise with the concerned communities, entities and other partner institutions
o Willing to commit to the project for at least 6mons or two terms
o Willing to conduct software demonstration during or after development of the project.
