There were also some attempts to use the school as agents of social change, especially in health and sanitation. These attempts were not successful. Schools were, however, successful in their major goal of raising the level of literacy. With an increasing school enrollment, caused by the rapid rate of population increase, the desire and motivation of the Filipino/a youth to be educated for social mobility and economic advancement, the educational system, took on its constitutional responsibility of providing the people with the needed education. However, in the 1960s, there was widespread clamor for and concern about the quality and relevance of the Philippine educational system to national needs social and economic development. A survey made by a presidential commission in 1969, came up with the conclusion that the Philippine educational system was not contributing substantially toward the nation's goal of economic development. The commission also made recommendations to improve the educational system. In response, the education system tried to adopt reforms. This was at the time martial law was declared by President Marcos (21 September 1972), who sought to reform Philippine society into a "New Society." The education system was used as the vehicle for reforms. Considering that social and economic reforms have been specified as major means to attain national development, and that the different government agencies were expected to contribute toward the attainment of this goal, this research therefore presents a documentary analysis in historical perspective, of how the Philippine educational system in particular, played its role in national development efforts during the period of the New Society, from 1972 to 1981. The study concerns itself mainly with development efforts initiated, adopted and implemented by the Philippine educational system during said period. A chapter on the aftermath of these development efforts covers the period after martial law was lifted ( 1981) to the end of the Marcos regime in early 1986.

BEISSINGER Princeton University sing two unusual surveys, this study analyzes participation in the 2004 Orange Revolution in Ukraine, comparing participants with revolution supporters, opponents, counter-revolutionaries, U and the apathetic/inactive. As the analysis shows, most revolutionaries were weakly committed to the revolution’s democratic master narrative, and the revolution’s spectacular mobilizational success was largely due to its mobilization of cultural cleavages and symbolic capital to construct a negative coalition across diverse policy groupings. A contrast is drawn between urban civic revolutions like the Orange Revolution and protracted peasant revolutions. The strategies associated with these revolution- ary models affect the roles of revolutionary organization and selective incentives and the character of revolutionary coalitions. As the comparison suggests, postrevolutionary instability may be built into urban civic revolutions due to their reliance on a rapidly convened negative coalition of hundreds of thousands, distinguished by fractured elites, lack of consensus over fundamental policy issues, and weak commitment to democratic ends. t is widely acknowledged that the character of political freedoms in their immediate wake, though in revolution has

    People Power: The Everyday Politics of Democratic Resistance in Burma and the Philippines Nicholas Henry A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in International Relations Victoria University of Wellington 2011 ii ... the tale he had to tell could not be one of a final victory. It could be only the record of what had had to be done, and what assuredly would have to be done again in the never ending fight against terror and its relentless onslaughts, despite their personal afflictions, by all who, while unable to be saints but refusing to bow down to pestilences, strive their utmost to be healers. Albert Camus, The Plague This thesis is dedicated to all those who, resisting the terror of state violence, continue to do what has to be done. iii Abstract How do Community Based Organisations (CBOs) in Burma and the Philippines participate in the construction of political legitimacy through their engagement in local and international politics? What can this tell us about the agency of non-state actors in international relations? This thesis explores the practices of non-state actors engaged in political resistance in Burma and the Philippines. The everyday dynamics of political legitimacy are examined in relation to popular consent, political violence, and the influence of international actors and norms. The empirical research in this thesis is based on a grounded theory analysis of in-depth semi-structured interviews with a wide cross-section of spokespeople and activists of opposition groups from Burma, and with spokespeople of opposition groups in the Philippines.

  • A Dirty Affair Political Melodramas of Democratization
    6 A Dirty Affair Political Melodramas of Democratization Ferdinand Marcos was ousted from the presidency and exiled to Hawaii in late February 1986,Confidential during a four-day Property event of Universitycalled the “peopleof California power” Press revolution. The event was not, as the name might suggest, an armed uprising. It was, instead, a peaceful assembly of thousands of civilians who sought to protect the leaders of an aborted military coup from reprisal by***** the autocratic state. Many of those who gathered also sought to pressure Marcos into stepping down for stealing the presi- dential election held in December,Not for Reproduction not to mention or Distribution other atrocities he had commit- ted in the previous two decades. Lino Brocka had every reason to be optimistic about the country’s future after the dictatorship. The filmmaker campaigned for the newly installed leader, Cora- zon “Cory” Aquino, the widow of slain opposition leader Ninoy Aquino. Despite Brocka’s reluctance to serve in government, President Aquino appointed him to the commission tasked with drafting a new constitution. Unfortunately, the expe- rience left him disillusioned with realpolitik and the new government. He later recounted that his fellow delegates “really diluted” the policies relating to agrarian reform. He also spoke bitterly of colleagues “connected with multinationals” who backed provisions inimical to what he called “economic democracy.”1 Brocka quit the commission within four months. His most significant achievement was intro- ducing the phrase “freedom of expression” into the constitution’s bill of rights and thereby extending free speech protections to the arts.

  • School of Education & Human Sciences Student Teaching Handbook
    School of Education & Human Sciences Student Teaching Handbook Handbook for Teacher Education Candidates, Clinical Supervisors and University Supervisors. Revised July 2018 --Forward-- The capstone learning experience and opportunity for continued professional growth occurs during this important phase of teacher preparation. To ensure that these experiences are effective in the leadership development of our future educators, each teacher candidate needs the assistance of three key individuals – the Clinical Supervisor (also termed cooperating teacher) in the schools, the University Supervisor, and the Director of Student Teaching/Internship. The Clinical Supervisors in the schools provide critical modeling and mentoring for our students. The clinical experience blends the research basis of education theories into daily practice within the context of the classroom. Clinical Supervisors’ roles and responsibilities are, in part, to assist our candidates in learning how to create a classroom culture for learning, be responsive to individual students’ needs, manage student behaviors, and plan for and deliver instruction that is appropriate for all students. In addition, Clinical Supervisors nurture our candidates to help them grow and develop as professionals in an environment of respect and rapport. They help our candidates understand how schools are organized and how to work with parents, the community, and other school colleagues and staff. The University Supervisor is an extension of the program advisor. This individual represents the School of Education & Human Sciences and ensures that each teacher candidate is making significant progress in becoming a competent educator and leader. The University Supervisor schedules regular visits to classrooms, observes the instruction implemented by the teacher education candidate, and provides timely and constructive feedback.

  • School of Education Conceptual Framework PREPARING EFFECTIVE TEACHERS for DIVERSE LEARNERS
    School of Education Conceptual Framework PREPARING EFFECTIVE TEACHERS FOR DIVERSE LEARNERS The conceptual framework of Dalton State College’s School of Education (hereinafter referred to as the “unit”) consists of its vision, mission, philosophy, and commitment to the preparation of effective teachers for diverse learners. The unit’s framework serves as a blueprint for the development of future teachers, providing the foundation for the knowledge, skills, and dispositions which we believe are integral to the achievement of our mission and outcomes. The Dalton State College faculty, along with public school partners, work collaboratively to prepare teachers to effectively teach students from diverse populations. HISTORY A partnership was initiated in 1983 between West Georgia College (now the University of West Georgia) and Dalton Junior College (now Dalton State College) to offer a teacher education program in Early Childhood Education designated as the Dalton External Degree Program. In September 1998, Dalton State College was authorized to begin developing its first bachelor’s degrees, and in November the institution’s name was changed to Dalton State College. The conceptual framework model that was adopted and implemented in fall 1998 for both the University of West Georgia in Carrollton and the Dalton program was reviewed by the Education faculty. In order to adjust to the difference in governance, the Education faculty refined the conceptual framework. In 2006, recognizing that the framework guides the assessment system, the faculty reviewed assessments to ensure alignment with the framework and agreed to modification and refinement in the design of the assessment system. The faculty continually evaluates and assesses the conceptual framework and the assessment system.
