PHILOSOPHICAL REFLECTION PAPER

 


Education has been a part of our lives. We learn from school, but also from our family, friends, people we meet, things happening around us, and life itself. Talking of "quality education," to me it is bringing lifelong skills and knowledge into the learner, enabling them to improve and be prepared for the future. This includes lifelong learning that they can use to help make the world a better place. Sometimes I even questioned myself over the issues that I was to learn at a particular discipline, and you'd wonder yourself, "Why should I learn this?" or "How does it even relate with my future or course that I'm enrolled in?" All those now make perfect sense because I'm in senior high,everything now makes sense in the concept of quality education.


The educators and the learners face critical problems in the educational industry. For the educators, they face problems balancing work and life-time management of their students' time and their time for self-directed learning and keeping abreast with the learners. I heard that this is a challenge because a teacher confided in me how scared she was that the learner may not like her or would not be interested to the topic. They read and know what is to be taught exactly like the students. The challenges that the learners suffer from are ,poor management of time, academic pressure, mental health challenges. These factor touch the life of the teacher and the learner each from within, affecting their day-to-day lives and their physical and mental health as it involves basic personal needs.


Quality education contributes to the empowerment and economic growth, environmental literacy, and social equality in the development of our society. One illustration is the Philippines K-12 Education system introduced around 2012-2013. The system has established a more proficient and dynamic workforce through offering students specialized tracks. Now, the K-12 system has been replaced with the Matatag curriculum, a reformed and enhanced K-12 Education.


Recent past Rapid technological advance has significantly affected the quality of education. Technology aided both the educator and the learner in completing tasks, research, and access resources that have made self-directed learning easier and quite achievable. Among these are the facilitation of easy tasks and research, ease in the facilitation of resources for use in different aspects of life, and easy facilitation for self-directed learning. The downside could include too much reliance by students on technology.

How to get a good score for a quiz

                       Its really important to study for quizzes, especially if the upcoming quiz matter as much as your grades. I wanted to share some tips on studying, especially now that we are back to "Face to Face classes" . Some people have a hard time studying or adjusting without the use of google. TIP #1: TIME MANAGEMENT   Time management in studying is very important because not all the time we'll have the freedom to study. Because we all have some other things to do other than studying.        TIP #2 ORGANIZE YOUR THOUGHTS Sometimes when studying, we seem to not understand what we are studying about. Another tip is to focus on a specific part of your study that you don't much understand, by doing this it'll be easier to understand the overall topic of your study. TIP #3: TAKE NOTES!! When studying we go directly to google for some information. But taking notes in class works like a charm...

MY INTRAMS JOURNAL

Image
 Starting off, the preliminaries wasn't really a good start for me because of my health. First day of preliminaries I fainted while playing basketball, it was because of the weather and I had just gotten better recently from having a fever the week before prelims. To me, intramurals was very challenging and ofcourse the games are all about teamwork. And honestly me and my team, that's what we lacked. But after that we talked about how we could be a better team and play as one. And after a few tries we did it. Though we had so many loses, we still managed to be contented, and we knew that we tried our best in every game we played, over all we had fun and didn't see it as something negative. Also because of intrams, I got to meet new people. Got to know people that I see around the campus alot but didn't get to know or talk to fully. For me thats what make a good team, a team is formed through friendships. Even if you don't know them making a team will still work. I w...

Ang Mansaka ay isang tribo sa timog na bahagi sa Pilipinas, partikular na matatagpoan sa Davao Del Norte o Compostella Valley. Ang Mansaka ay kilala sa pag pamamahala ng kanilang mga gawaing pangkabuhayan lalo na sa pagsasaka, sila din ang nakapamamayani na grupo sa Compostela Valley. Sila ay nakatira dito mula pa noong panahong nilikha sila ng "Magbabaya". Kalahati sa Mansaka tribe ay sumusunod ng "Muslim faith", at ang isang kalahating naman ay pinanatili ang kanilang traditional na pananapampalataya. Ang pangalan na "Mansaka" ay nakukuha sa salita na "man'' tapos ang "saka" naman ay "ascend" sa tagalog pa ay umakyat. Kaya ang ibig sabihin ng "Mansaka" ay, ang pinaka una na mga tao na umakyat sa mga bundok o umkyat sa mga batis. Ayon ni Datu Onlos. ang Mansaka , Mandaya, at kalagan o kagan tribe.
