Title Recycling Of Campus Solid Wastes Into A Low- Cost Green Instructional Equipment

Abstract A common problem in some State Universities and Colleges (SUCs) in the Philippines is the accumulation of campus solid wastes. A popular approach to minimizing this problem is the application of 3Rs (Re-use, Recycle, Reduce). These 3Rs are used by Cebu Technological University-Main Campus at Cebu City, Philippines, to foster Green Technology and promote a circular economy. The application of 3Rs is very timely since some classrooms are still traditional with no complete instructional equipment and devices to fortify instructional delivery. Hence, this paper's ultimate intention is to develop low-cost, portable, and green instructional equipment through 3Rs adoption. This paper uses the instructional equipment from reusable campus solid wastes like glass, wooden pallets, tree branches, and swivel wheels. This equipment is fully loaded with the instructional materials and devices needed in the teaching-learning process. With its portability, the teachers can quickly transfer between classrooms with the instructional loads. In functionality assessments, several tests were conducted, like the stress analysis test, drop test, and system quality evaluation. Test results suggest that this instructional equipment is beneficial for instructional delivery in developing SUCs in the Philippines. Moreover, the equipment may not be solely used for classroom instruction during face-to-face classes but also can be usable during online classes.
