Impact Assessment on the Technology-Based Extension Projects: A Basis for Designing Sustainable Extension Activities

This study aimed to conduct an impact assessment on the technology-based extension projects undertaken by the faculty extensionists from the College of Information and Communications Technology to provide a basis for designing sustainable extension activities. Descriptive research was utilized for this study. The researchers employed a survey instrument via Google Form to gather data from the 25 respondents from the city of Cabanatuan, province of Nueva Ecija. Results show that the college caters to a diverse range of beneficiaries. Beneficiary respondents believed that the projects had contributed to their capacity building, computer literacy, and livelihood. Their participation in the extension project made them productive at work and allowed them to develop new knowledge and skills relevant to contributing to community building. The researchers suggest that the results be utilized to design sustainable extension projects, consider partnerships with other higher learning institutions, and conduct regular evaluations and assessments of different extension projects.
