College, High School and Elementary students compete with the English, Filipino and Hiligaynon category.

Our three  High School contestants, namely Alyanna, EJ and Aezel Jade, did their best on the three categories. And Ateneo de Iloilo won the championship on the Filipino category, with Aezel holding our shool flag up high.

Go Ateneo!

Here are some pictures we had:

I.          COURSE TITLE: JAVA PROGRAMMING AND INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY PROJECT MANAGEMENT

II.         COURSE DESCRIPTION

Computer IV deals in the development of the learners’ knowledge in programming skills in terms of doing programming exercises through object-oriented programming. The course also allows them to enhance their logical and analytical skills by immersing into the different facets of computing.

            The subject course has two essential and complementary parts: Java Programming, and I.T. Project Management.  The first part of the course will cover some programming fundamentals that will aide in learning to program using Java language and to equip the students the essential logical and analytical skills that would enable them to create simple programs. The last part of the course will be a sort of culminating their computer subjects from first year to fourth year through an I.T. project.  The I.T. Project Management is a project oriented course that will instill team support and effort as the students will undergo the same procedures of an I.T. Team.
