WENDEL E. AVISADO SVP & Acting Secretary General Encl. As stated BOY SCOUTS OF THE PHILIPPINES NATIONAL OFFICE MANILA PROPOSED NEW WOOD BADGE COURSE SYLLABUS BASED ON WOSM’S WOOD BADGE FRAMEWORK World Scout Bureau • Education, Research and Development • March 2012 BACKGROUND AND RATIONALE The BSP Training Scheme for Unit Leaders, especially the Advanced Training Course (Wood Badge) shall adopt the Wood Badge Framework as provided in the WOSM’s Wood Badge Framework (WSB, 2012) as viewed by the founder Baden Powell himself “The Wood Badge will make quite certain that when I am gone, the future leaders of Scouting will really understand what it is all about and what my intentions have been”. The purpose of Wood Badge framework is to strengthen the sense of unity within movement through sharing of purpose, principles and method of Scouting and the belonging to a world brotherhood of adults serving young people; it harmonizes training principles covering the eight (8) basic learning areas including (i) Quality Youth Programme; (ii) Fundamentals of Scouting; (iii) Scout Method; (iv) Leadership Excellence; (v) Management Competencies; (vi) Communications and Public Relations; (vii) Wood Badge Training Tradition; and (viii) Course Standard and Training Policy. The framework shall enable BSP Advanced Training Course to calibrate itself to the unified system of Training for Adults in Scouting, specifically the Wood Badge Course, in compliance with the recommendation of the WOSM-GSAT and SGS Audit, thereby including the Adults in Scouting Dimension be at the standard of WOSM Framework including the topics on Safety & Risk Management and Keeping Scouts Safe from Harm. As provided in the WOSM Wood Badge Framework: The “Wood Badge” is the sign of recognition granted to all Adults in Scouting who satisfied the training criteria required on the “Wood Badge” training. This means that this training is not only reserved for leaders in charge of youth, but that any adult in Scouting (with uniform) may apply for such training. Details of the criteria are the responsibility of each National Scout Organization. WOSM’s framework defines the following general guidance: 1. The “Wood Badge” training must be completed within a reasonable period not exceeding three years from the time the adult undertakes in its course and the end of his training. 2. The “Wood Badge” training is an advanced level of the training offered to the adults in Scouting. 3. It assumes that the candidate has satisfactory knowledge and good practice of Scouting experience. The conditions and procedures for the validation of this experience and knowledge must be communicated to all adults. Special attention should be given to factual elements and the time required, avoiding any arbitrary procedure in the process. 4. The “Wood Badge” training is a construction of learning’s based on the combination of theoretical contributions, analyses and experiments related to situations and challenges faced by adults on the field. A practical phase of implementation of the acquired learning’s, with supervision and validation of a qualified person, or a tutor, will complement “Wood Badge” training. 5. The “Wood Badge” training must be adapted to be offered to all adults who wish to be trained. To do this, it must be flexible and sufficiently diverse. All the modalities of its implementation should be explored by the National Scout Organizations, according to their means and their capabilities: “residential training”, “modular training”, “eLearning and face-to-face training”, etc. are a few possibilities that can be combined, others can be also implemented. 6. “Wood Badge” training, whatever the terms for its implementation, will include Educational Elements of the Scout Method, namely: a. Adherence to Scout Oath and Law; b. Learning by doing, learning through play and service; c. Reinforcing personal learning through Team System; d. Exploring “Nature and Environment” as elementary needs for human being; e. Opportunity for Personal Progression through educational activities and objectives; f. Adult Support through privileged relationship with the trainers, as learning process facilitators, g. Finally, to be as specific training the Scouting’s Symbolic Framework in general and the Wood Badge symbolism need to be used. The “Wood Badge” training program should cover all eight learning areas: 1. Youth Programme - is the totality of the learning opportunities in Scouting from which young people can benefit (’What’), deliberately created to achieve the purpose of Scouting (’Why’) and experienced through the Scout Method (’How’); 2. Fundamentals of Scouting, which covers the Aim, Principles and Scout Method, the adaptation of the Method according to sections, organization and structures, etc; 3. Scout Method – is a system of progressive self-education through the following interrelated educational elements: Adherence to the Scout Oath & Law; Learning by Doing; Team System; Symbolic Framework; Personal Progression; Life in Nature and Stimulating Adult Support; 4. Leadership Excellence – this refers to knowledge and capabilities to assume duties and responsibilities and influence other people to produce positive impact within the Movement. 5. Management Competence – this means the knowledge and expertise in program planning, events organizing, controlling and managing units, groups or larger structures. 6. Communications and Public Relations – this is understood in its broadest sense: way to get in touch with the others in the community and to maintain an efficient relationship, to include but are not limited to Scouting Profile, Image Building, Reaching Out, Partnerships, Message, Marketing Scouting and alike; 7. Wood Badge Training Traditions – this covers rich historical significance of the Wood Badge training, its values, norms, customs, practices that promotes World Brotherhood, Humility, Unity and Equality; 8. Course Standard and Training Policy – this refers to adherence to set of rules and regulations adopted in the conduct of Wood Badge training and its course administration.

  • Does It Matter Who Scouts?
    Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics 30(2):250-267 Copyright 2005 Western Agricultural Economics Association Does It Matter who Scouts? Erik Lichtenberg and Ayesha Velderman Berlind Scouting is the most widely used integrated pest management technique adopted by U.S. growers. This study applies an implicit demand formulation of the Lichtenberg- Zilberman damage abatement model to data &om a survey of Maryland field crop growers to examine differences in pesticide demand between growers using scouts trained and supervised by extension and those using chemical dealer employees or scouting themselves. The results give partial support to those skeptical of the quality of scouting by farmers themselves and by consultants working for chemical dealers. Soybean growers using extension-trained scouts had significantly lower pesticide demand than those using chemical dealer employees or scouting themselves. How- ever, no significant differences were found in the pesticide demands for alfalfa, corn, and small grains. Key words: crop loss, damage abatement, extension, integrated pest management, pesticide demand, pesticides, scouting Introduction Integrated pest management (IPM) is an approach that combines the use of chemical pesticides with nonchemical methods to limit the damage caused by such pests as insects, weeds, diseases, and rodents. Among the nonchemical techniques used in IPM strategies are protection of natural pest enemies, cultivation practices that limit pest overwintering or diffusion, and crop rotation [for a review, see Kogan (1998)l. The most widely used nonchemical method is scouting-i.e., monitoring fields to determine actual pest infestation levels. In scouting-based IPM strategies, chemical pesticides are applied only when the pest infestation level exceeds the economic threshold, usually defined as the level at which the value of crop losses will exceed the costs of pesticide application [see Pedigo, Hutchins, and Higley (1986) for a standard exposition].

  • How Rovering Was Born and What Is Rovering
    Basic Course for Rover Scout Leaders Self Learning Module No. 1 How Rovering was Born and What is Rovering Rover Scouting is the final stage in that system of training in the principles and practice of citizenship in which Cubbing and Scouting each in turn plays its part; all three sections of the Scout Movement sharing one common aim: the development of good citizenship among boys on the basis of the Scout Promise and Scout Law. Though Scouting was born in 1907, Rovering came very much later, in 1918. Objectives At the end of this Module, you should be able to: 1. Narrate the history of Scouting. 2. Describe the birth of Rovering. 3. Explain what is Rovering. Thought for Reflection Rover Scouting is a preparation of life, and also a pursuit for life. - Baden-Powell Birth of Scouting Scouting‘s history commences with a British Army Officer, Robert Stephenson Smyth Baden-Powell. It is not merely one act or initiative of Baden-Powell that led to formation of Scouting but a number of events, prevailing conditions in England at that point of time, and influences which attracted the attention of Baden- Powell to draw up a plan to be of service to society, particularly the young boys. We shall explore them one by one. These influences are not presented in a sequential order. Influence 1: While stationed in Lucknow, India as an Army Officer in 1876, Baden-Powell (B.-P.) found that his men did not know basic first aid or outdoor survival skills. They were not able to follow a trail, tell directions, read danger signs, or find food and water.

  • 2012 Annual Report
    THE COVER “You do not get what you wish for, unless it can be known to the source of your desire.” What we see are Scouting related picturesque that says: - skills - friendship - outdoor life - commune with nature - a vision to fulfill - a flag to honor, and - a dignity to live... as a Scout! All these are commitment to fulfill and imbued through the Scout Oath and Law.

With increase in membership and more colorful and relevant activities reflected in this annual report, we are very confident that the Boy Scouts of the Philippines will continue to walk the path of goodwill to ensure that all its energies are properly sustained, its program implemented and its Mission and Vision well cascaded to its members and stakeholders. As we triumphed amid challenges last year, we proved once more that teamwork and conviction can be potent tools to ensure success in our programs. However, we cannot do this without the help of our volunteers from all over who came to offer their services in building this nation through the youth. By joining us in our effort to bring Scouting closer to the hearth of everyone, our volunteers become our heroes, faceless and nameless heroes who betray indifference to touch human lives.

  • OCR – Rover Scouting Program Guidebook
    Rover Scouting Program Guide Book Rover Scouting is the fifth and final phase of the youth development program of the Boy Scouts of the Philippines. It is, according to Baden Powell, a “jolly Brotherhood of the open-air and service.” Rover Scouting and, therefore, this Guidebook is for young men and women between the ages of 16 and 25, or those who are at least tertiary level students. Foreword This Program Guidebook in Rover Scouting is the result of the painstaking review and research made by members of the Rover Program Review Task Group. Efforts were made to adopt Filipino culture and tradition in the activities and ceremonies while keeping with internationally accepted practices of Rovering. Changes in members of the Task Group, however, lengthened the period of the review. But the untiring support and dedication of the Task Group has resulted in this Revised Edition of the Program Guidebook in Rover Scouting. For their tremendous time and effort, and patience in the lengthy review and research work, we salute the following members of the Task Group: VICTOR C. CAHAPAY, Chairman; ROGELIO R. VICENClO, Vice Chairman; Members: FLORENCIO B. ANTONIO, JOHN D. DE GUZMAN, EUFRONIO G. LEE, LAMBERTO B. LINABAN, ESTELITO A. LUALHATI, NICOMEDES C. PENALA, MANUEL S. SALUMBIDES, RODOLFO B.
