Began in 1999,it aims to cooperate with the Department of Education (DepEd), formerly Department of Education, Culture and Sports (DECS), in its continuing commitment to and concern for enhancing and enriching the conceptualization and content of the basic curricula in education for effective citizenship. The first phase was a review of content and method of the DECS-approved textbooks by a panel of experts representing the concerned disciplines. The multidisciplinal findings and reactions were presented and discussed in multidisciplinal and multisectoral roundtable and panel discussions, and dialogues with DECS officials. In view of the findings and recommendations from phase one, a body of proposed curricula-enhancing and enriching topics, themes, and approaches was formulated by another multidisciplinal panel. The main focus this time was toward a curriculum which transcends the perceived instrumentalizing and somewhat narrow nationalistic bias of the social studies and civics textbooks. This third phase attempts to provide more specific conceptual/thematic and topical items proposed to be included in reconceptualizing and writing the new enriched textbooks that will provide effectively interdisciplinary pedagogical convergence. The resulting textbooks, it is hoped, will contribute to the social and civic education of citizens, who are not only effective agents of national concerns, butare also primarily effective and fulfilled human persons who are members of a national community and citizens of a country which aspires to a dynamic membership in a progressively interactive and convergent international, or global community. Serious and sincere as the intentions and vision of the proponents of this project are, this work claims no finality and exhaustive definitiveness. It is an invitation to enrichment as well as a call for sustained cooperation with the DepEd and all sectors concerned with the effective education of the nation's young citizens and future leaders. It affirms moreover, a very sincere and urgent desire to emphasize the historic importance, in social studies pedagogy in the Philippines, of knowing the self as an organic member of a larger local and global community-a contributing rather than a mere depending member; and ifa person of power, a statesperson rather than a mere politician. This is what "individual and societal mutual well­ being" is all about. We desire a truly liberating education-a liberation from the many prohibitive and oppressive circumstances and situations of contemporary national and international society. And not only to be free, but also to be free for; not merely to be citizen of, but also empowered citizen for. FLORENTINO H. HORNEDO, Ph.D. April 2002 FOREWORD IX INTRODUCTION THE SOCIAL AND HUMAN Sciences Committee (the Committee) of UNESCO National Commission of the Philippines (UNACOM) has undertaken the task of improving Social Studies in the BasicCurriculum. Specifically, the UNACOM aims to align the content, pedagogy, and attitudinal formation of Araling Panlipunan with UNESCO conventions and programs to which the Philippines is a party. The Department of Education (DepEd) has been an active participant in UNESCO's Education for All program. In fact, the Committee's initiatives are a response to requests and observations made during the terms of Education Secretary Andrew Gonzalez and Education Undersecretary Isagani Cruz. When in 2002,DECS transformed into DepEd, the task of cultural education for the nation transferred from DECS to National Commission for Culture and the Arts. NCCA defines its scope of work to include formal, nonformal and informal cultural education. DepEd, however, continues to enhance and mature its curriculum for social studies using its institutionalized in-house system and planners while NCCA is just addressing its recent mandate. The Committee recognizes that DepEd and NCCA provide essential communication methods for disseminating a common understanding of culture as a dynamic process in which every person is both a creator and a participant. The concepts in this publication can aid all cultural agencies and cultural educators in using the social and human sciences to enrich basic education and cultural awareness. Three Needed Major Improvements There are three major improvements that need to be undertaken in social studies for basic education: In order to intensify holism (showing how the pieces-subject areas-fit together in real life by using one overall learning goal for all the existing DepEd learning, goals in Araling Panlipunan): 1. Define culture beyond what is commonly considered

Located across the Pasig River from the walled city of Intramuros, Binondo was formally established in 1594, and is believed to be the oldest Chinatown in the world. It is the center of commerce and trade for all types of businesses run by Filipino-Chinese merchants, and given the historic reach of Chinese trading in the Pacific, it has been a hub of Chinese commerce in the Philippines since before the first Spanish colonizers arrived in the Philippines in 1521. Before World War II, Binondo was the center of the banking and financial community in the Philippines, housing insurance companies, commercial banks and other financial institutions from Britain and the United States. These banks were located mostly along Escólta, which used to be called the "Wall Street of the Philippines". Binondo remains a center of commerce and trade for all types of businesses run by Filipino- Chinese merchants and is famous for its diverse offerings of Chinese cuisine. Enjoy walking around the streets of Binondo, taking in Tsinoy (Chinese-Filipino) history through various Chinese specialties from its small and cozy restaurants.

But as Filipino Christians with endless faith in our God, we are duty-bound to ask, despite the hopelessness around us, the following questions: z Can something still be done? z Are we doomed as a nation? z Has God abandoned this country? z Does the Word of God to the prophet Jeremiah still apply to the Philippines today? “For I know the plans I have for you” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” (Jeremiah 29:11) 32 1 I. The Destiny of the Philippines Notes C. Three basic attitudes needed as we study our nation’s A. God created each nation with a purpose history z Everything that God created has a purpose, even nations. As we seek to understand God’s purpose for our nation through God created each nation with a purpose. In general, God’s our history, we need to ask God to give us a humble, thankful purpose for every nation is to contribute something positive and repentant heart. to humanity (sangkatauhan), to be a blessing to other nations. But each nation has a particular way in which God z A Humble Heart – We need a prayerful dependence upon wants it to be a blessing to other nations.

Chua Pamantasang De La Salle Maynila Maikling Paglalarawan ng Paksa ng Modyul-Gabay: Nakaugalian nang ilahad ang kasaysayan ng kolonyalismo sa pananaw ng mga opisyal na dokumento ng mga dayuhan at mga kolonyalistang sanaysay na nagpatibay ng kolonyal na mentalidad ng Pilipino na ang Kanluran ay laging daluyan ng ginhawa. Liban pa sa nawalan na ng saysay ang nakaraang ito sa maraming Pilipino dahil hindi nito talaga nasalamin ang kanilang kamalayan. Ang Nasyunalistang Kasaysayan ni Agoncillo, na lalong pinaunlad at pinagpapatuloy ng Pantayong Pananaw, ang nagbukas ng daan na lalong maintindihan ang kasaysayan sa pananaw ng mga Pilipino sa nakalipas na mga taon. Ayon kay Zeus A. Salazar at sa iba pang tagapagtaguyod ng Pantayog Pananaw, ang Kasaysayan ay “salaysay na may saysay para sa sinasalaysayang grupo ng tao.” Sa paglalahad ng kwento mula sa pananaw ng mga lider tungo sa pananaw ng mga namumuhay ng kalinangan—ang mga mamamayan, nais ng module na ito na ipakita ang pag-unlad ng kapuluan mula sa iba’t ibang bayan tungo sa pagiging isang bansa. Ang karanasan ng Conquista at pakikibaka ang nagbuo sa bayan tungo sa kamalayang pambansa, na ang magiging katuparan ay ang Himagsikang Pilipino ng 1896. Sa kasamaang palad, dahil sa Dambuhalang Pagkakahating Pangkalinangan, nagkaroon din ng tunggalian sa loob ng bansa, kaya naman hindi pa rin natatapos ang gawain ng pagbubuo nito tungo sa tunay na kaginhawaan ng mga Pilipino.

    Nytårsrejsen Til Filippinerne – 2014

    Nytårsrejsen til Filippinerne – 2014. Martins Dagbog Dorte og Michael kørte os til Kastrup, og det lykkedes os at få en opgradering til business class - et gammelt tilgodebevis fra lidt lægearbejde på et Singapore Airlines fly. Vi fik hilst på vore 16 glade gamle rejsevenner ved gaten. Karin fik lov at sidde på business class, mens jeg sad på det sidste sæde i økonomiklassen. Vi fik julemad i flyet - flæskesteg med rødkål efterfulgt af ris á la mande. Serveringen var ganske god, og underholdningen var også fin - jeg så filmen "The Hundred Foot Journey", som handlede om en indisk familie, der åbner en restaurant lige overfor en Michelin-restaurant i en mindre fransk by - meget stemningsfuld og sympatisk. Den var instrueret af Lasse Hallström. Det tog 12 timer at flyve til Singapore, og flyet var helt fuldt. Flytiden mellem Singapore og Manila var 3 timer. Vi havde kun 30 kg bagage med tilsammen (12 kg håndbagage og 18 kg i en indchecket kuffert). Jeg sad ved siden af en australsk student, der skulle hjem til Perth efter et halvt år i Bergen. Hans fly fra Lufthansa var blevet aflyst, så han havde måttet vente 16 timer i Københavns lufthavn uden kompensation. Et fly fra Air Asia på vej mod Singapore forulykkede med 162 personer pga. dårligt vejr. Miriams kuffert var ikke med til Manilla, så der måtte skrives anmeldelse - hun fik 2200 pesos til akutte fornødenheder. Vi vekslede penge som en samlet gruppe for at spare tid og gebyr - en $ var ca. 45 pesos. Vi kom i 3 minibusser ind til Manila Hotel, hvor det tog 1,5 time at checke os ind på 8 værelser.

Bagama’t mas maliit at hindi ganoong kapopular ang isa pang likhang sining na ito ni Luna noong 1892, hindi ito pahuhuli sa kontrobersiya nang bilhin ito ng Paseguruhan ng mga Naglilingkod sa Pamahalaan (GSIS) sa Christie’s sa Hongkong noong 2002 sa halagang Php 46 Milyon.

We usher in our lives (being evangelized) and proclaim (as evangelizers) the reign of God as Priests, Prophets and Kings, and in so doing, we celebrate our discipleship in Christ Jesus. We extol “being Church” through the formation of Small Faith Communities as a way of life in being priests, prophets and kings; thus, we become economically stable and self-reliant as we give special attention and solicitude to our youth and the needy. “They were faithful to the teaching of the apostles, the common life of sharing, the breaking of bread and the prayers.” (Acts 2:42) A message from Fr.

Diane Barnes, Thesis Advisor Date Dr. David Simonelli, Committee Member Date Dr. Helene Sinnreich, Committee Member Date Dr. Salvatore A. Sanders, Dean of Graduate Studies Date ABSTRACT Filipino culture was founded through the amalgamation of many ethnic and cultural influences, such as centuries of Spanish colonization and the immigration of surrounding Asiatic groups as well as the long nineteenth century’s Race of Nations. However, the events of 1898 to 1914 brought a sense of national unity throughout the seven thousand islands that made the Philippine archipelago. The Philippine-American War followed by United States occupation, with the massive domestic support on the ideals of Manifest Destiny, introduced the notion of distinct racial ethnicities and cemented the birth of one national Philippine identity. The exploration on the Philippine American War and United States occupation resulted in distinguishing the three different analyses of identity each influenced by events from 1898 to 1914: 1) The identity of Filipinos through the eyes of U.S., an orientalist study of the “us” versus “them” heavily influenced by U.S.
