  • History of Quezon City Public Library
    HISTORY OF QUEZON CITY PUBLIC LIBRARY The Quezon City Public Library started as a small unit, a joint venture of the National Library and Quezon City government during the incumbency of the late Mayor Ponciano Bernardo and the first City Superintendent of Libraries, Atty. Felicidad Peralta by virtue of Public Law No. 1935 which provided for the “consolidation of all libraries belonging to any branch of the Philippine Government for the creation of the Philippine Library”, and for the maintenance of the same. Mayor Ponciano Bernardo 1946-1949 June 19, 1949, Republic Act No. 411 otherwise known as the Municipal Libraries Law, authored by then Senator Geronimo T. Pecson, which is an act to “provide for the establishment, operation and Maintenance of Municipal Libraries throughout the Philippines” was approved. Mrs. Felicidad A. Peralta 1948-1978 First City Librarian Side by side with the physical and economic development of Quezon City officials particularly the late Mayor Bernardo envisioned the needs of the people. Realizing that the achievements of the goals of a democratic society depends greatly on enlightened and educated citizenry, the Quezon City Public Library, was formally organized and was inaugurated on August 16, 1948, with Aurora Quezon, as a guest of Honor and who cut the ceremonial ribbon. The Library started with 4, 000 volumes of books donated by the National Library, with only four employees to serve the public. The library was housed next to the Post Office in a one-storey building near of the old City Hall in Edsa. Even at the start, this unit depended on the civic spirited members of the community who donated books, bookshelves and other reading material.

  • CHAPTER 1: the Envisioned City of Quezon
    CHAPTER 1: The Envisioned City of Quezon 1.1 THE ENVISIONED CITY OF QUEZON Quezon City was conceived in a vision of a man incomparable - the late President Manuel Luis Quezon – who dreamt of a central place that will house the country’s highest governing body and will provide low-cost and decent housing for the less privileged sector of the society. He envisioned the growth and development of a city where the common man can live with dignity “I dream of a capital city that, politically shall be the seat of the national government; aesthetically the showplace of the nation--- a place that thousands of people will come and visit as the epitome of culture and spirit of the country; socially a dignified concentration of human life, aspirations and endeavors and achievements; and economically as a productive, self-contained community.” --- President Manuel L. Quezon Equally inspired by this noble quest for a new metropolis, the National Assembly moved for the creation of this new city. The first bill was filed by Assemblyman Ramon P. Mitra with the new city proposed to be named as “Balintawak City”. The proposed name was later amended on the motion of Assemblymen Narciso Ramos and Eugenio Perez, both of Pangasinan to “Quezon City”. 1.2 THE CREATION OF QUEZON CITY On September 28, 1939 the National Assembly approved Bill No. 1206 as Commonwealth Act No. 502, otherwise known as the Charter of Quezon City. Signed by President Quezon on October 12, 1939, the law defined the boundaries of the city and gave it an area of 7,000 hectares carved out of the towns of Caloocan, San Juan, Marikina, Pasig, and Mandaluyong, all in Rizal Province.

  • The Galaxy of Archipelago
    THE GALAXY OF ARCHIPELAGO THE LAND OF GOD First, the Land of God, in the center of the galaxy of Archipelago, the one worshipped. Katalonan say it emanates a life-giving energy that gives the Galaxy of Archipelago the ability for life, but this is simply rumors and cryptic religious ramblings. This is also where, they say, that God lives. If you try to seek out the Land, you will simply become lost. THE ARCHIPELAGO The ARCHIPELAGO is the galaxy wherein all live in. It is wide, violent, and home to millions of star systems and planets. The Archipelago is usually split into three concentric sectors, although sometimes 4: ​Upstream, Downstream, and Shore. ​Sometimes they include the ​Horizon ​is included since there are some systems and planets that Humanity lives in there as well. The ​Upstream ​is the sector that surrounds the Land of God, closest to the center of the Galaxy. Here you will find the rich, palace planets of the Maginoo and Datu, as well as the Capital Planet of the whole Lakanate. The ​Downstream ​is the sector after the Upstream, surrounding it. Most work is done here, as well as trade, since it is the nexus of the Shore and Horizon Rims and the Upstream. This sector houses most of the planets and the population of Humanity. The ​Shore ​is the furthest from the Land of God, and the closest to the Horizon. This is where most of the vagrants and untouchables of the setting live, and most planets here are also usually uncharted or unrecorded. There is still much natural resources here, thus why most of the rich exploit this sector and its people.

  • The Case of Project Citizen in the Philippines: Examining The
    THE CASE OF PROJECT CITIZEN IN THE PHILIPPINES: EXAMINING THE IMPLEMENTATION OF A GRASSROOTS CIVIC EDUCATION PROGRAM by TANYA REKOW WALKER (Under the Direction of Dr. Kathleen deMarrais) ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to examine how and why a small non-governmental organization called the Philippine Center for Civic Education and Democracy (PCCED) chose to implement the Project Citizen curriculum, a project-based civic education program promoting civic knowledge, skills, and dispositions, in the Philippine schools. Attention was given to how Project Citizen was adapted for, and implemented in, the Philippine context. The origins of PCCED, its objectives, and how stakeholders perceived program effectiveness were explored. By examining how the PCCED implemented Project Citizen in Manila schools, I investigated how democratic education is maintained in a developing nation faced with the marginalization of civic education in the national curriculum. This qualitative case study relied on interviews, observations, and documents as the main data sources. A comparative education theoretical framework served as my interpretive perspective, and more specifically, I applied Phillips and Ochs’s (2004) policy borrowing and lending model to test its utility with a grassroots case of policy adoption. The data analysis process was guided by Vavrus and Bartlett’s (2014) vertical case study method which relies equally on three different dimensions of comparison: the horizontal, the vertical, and the transversal. The findings of this research indicated that Project Citizen’s growth in its reach and membership since its adoption was the result of several interconnected factors. First, seeking to prevent further marginalization of civic education in the national curriculum, the PCCED offered Project Citizen as an extracurricular participatory citizenship program to engage students, solve community problems, and promote political efficacy.
