On September 26, 2026, AI and Physical Computing for Educators came to Hua Siong College of Iloilo: a hands-on space where teachers could learn, experiment, build, and imagine new possibilities for their classrooms.
Thank you to the organizers, partners, and supporters who made this workshop free for every educator.
Organized by DEVCON Iloilo, DEVCON Kids, Tech For All, Hua Siong College of Iloilo, Global Shapers Iloilo, and DOST Western Visayas
In partnership with BDO and the Schools Division of Iloilo City
With support from Winston and Pam Damarillo, the Iloilo City Government, and the Province of Iloilo (3rd District)
Every educator trained a real AI model with Google Teachable Machine, then brought ideas to life with the BBC micro:bit, coding in Microsoft MakeCode. By the end of the day, all 95 had built a working physical computing prototype of their own.
When we equip educators with the knowledge, confidence, and tools to explore technology, the impact extends far beyond a single workshop, into classrooms, schools, and communities.
To all 95 educators who showed up ready to learn, experiment, and build: thank you. Your willingness to embrace new technologies is a powerful step toward more innovative, future-ready learning for our students.
Speakers, mentors, 15 lead learners, volunteers, and organizers from DEVCON Iloilo and DEVCON Kids made the day happen, with every partner working behind the scenes. Thank you for making this experience possible.
Help scale AI and Physical Computing for Educators nationally, across 13 locations and beyond the capital.
