Mark your calendars, teachers! As part of the continuous professional development for educators in the Philippines, Khan Academy is hosting two exciting events to kick off 2025. These initiatives aim to empower educators and enhance their teaching strategies through the use of innovative tools and platforms.
Getting Ready with Khan Academy
On January 4, 2025, from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, educators from Regions 8 and 1 will gather at the Madison Hotel (Region 8) and NEAP, La Union (Region 1). This in-person event is exclusively for verified implementers from selected schools. The orientation is scheduled on a weekend to ensure no disruption to class schedules. Participants will be introduced to the effective use of Khan Academy's resources to support classroom instruction and student learning outcomes.
Khanmigo AI Training via Facebook Live
For those unable to attend in person, there’s an exciting online event on January 5, 2025, from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM. Through a live session on the official Khan Academy Philippines Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/khanacademyphilippines), educators from both public and private schools will be introduced to Khanmigo, Khan Academy’s AI-powered teaching assistant. This session will showcase how AI can be leveraged to make learning more engaging and personalized for students.
Diagnostic Testing for English, Science, and Math Teachers
Additionally, as part of this initiative, English, Science, and Math teachers will undergo a diagnostic test. This assessment is designed to identify strengths and areas for improvement in their respective fields. The results will guide teachers in tailoring their professional development and maximizing the use of Khan Academy’s resources for their subjects.

These events offer an excellent opportunity for educators to:
Familiarize themselves with the latest tools and methodologies in teaching.
Enhance their subject expertise through diagnostic testing.
