This is where technology, the internet, and education intertwine. Globe myBusiness offers unlimited possibilities to the young filmakers for them to excel and fulfill their dreams. A perfect medium where they can share and express their thoughts and ideas with the whole world. Globe myBusiness conceptualized ProjectEd, a nationwide video competition to all high school students who were asked to answer the question, "How is technology changing how you learn today?" via a three-minute video using only their mobile phone.
Globe received 90 entries, each with its own signature style and creative stamp. In front of an extremely engaged audience of 250 high school students, head teachers, principals, Globe senior officers, and members of the press, the results were announced during the Globe ProjectEd Awards Night, held last Thursday, March 8, 2018 at the Maybank Performing Arts Auditorium.

Moving Forward With Videos
Given how today’s digital landscape is moved by video, it is only right that education makes the most of the video revolution. What Globe’s ProjectEd proved is that students recognize the immense power and potential of hopping aboard the video wagon—and education should definitely follow suit. Globe CTIO Gil Genio and Director of Citizenship of Globe Telecom, Ms. Chelle Gray, both highlight how the inevitable merging of learning and technology is a sign of the present times. Genio further adds that “Globe continues to be committed to advocate for digital learning, and in particular video learning, reinforcing the message that you can learn anytime, anywhere using technology at your disposal.”
