Summary
The Department of Education reported significant progress in its use of artificial intelligence under the Education Center for AI Research, based on ECAIR's midyear report. The report highlighted improvements in Project TALINO, which gives real-time visibility of school needs nationwide; Project DUNONG, which automates processing of the National Qualifying Examination for School Heads and has cut outsourcing costs while speeding up and improving the accuracy of results; and Project SALIKSEEK for rapid data retrieval. Education Secretary Sonny Angara said AI has helped the department strengthen transparency by putting a data-driven system in place. The story also flags the pilots that followed in the second semester of 2025 — Project SIGLA for screening stunted and underweight learners and Project SABAY for learners with dyslexia and speech sound disorders — plus Project LIGTAS, a multi-hazard analytics platform for school resilience whose prototype geospatial dashboard was targeted for turnover by end-2025.
