All of us wants to work in a good company. Most of of the companies requires their applicants to have those requirements. From the requirements itself, it is obvious that companies wants to hire applicants who are graduates. This is what education could give to each one of us. Better education would bring us to a good job that we deserve.

who to blame for quality of educaton?

"The problem is the low quality of the teaching. And that is at the heart of the problem on the technical side. There aren’t enough teachers and the ones there are poorly trained. No, I’m in no way denigrating the teachers. The ones I’ve met are dedicated, hardworking and very well- intentioned. It’s not their fault they’ve not been given all the teaching skills they need."

There are lots of children who wants to have education, but the problem is, there are few teachers who are willing to teach children. A teacher must put his/her heart in teaching to give a quality education to the students. Some teachers go to school just to earn salary, that's the reason why the quality if education becomes lower.

Transformative Learning

Transformative learning is:

Transformative Learning (what it is) Transformative learning is a form of adult education involving experiences that result in a deep, structural shift in thoughts and feelings, which then inform one's actions. This shift in consciousness can be very subtle or quite extraordinary. Often, it alters our way of making meaning and being in the world. Such a deep-seated shift involves our understanding and our relationships with other people, the natural world, and ourselves.
Transformative Learning In Practice Whether transformative learning is approached through a conscious rational process or a more intuitive, imaginative or spiritual one, it fosters and develops capacities that invite people to live more meaningfully. It can also provide ways to invite the power of the intellect to join the wisdom of the heart. Expanding and evolving human consciousness supports social transformation that embodies joy, peace and equity for all people.

I honestly thik that transformative learning is not working for our school today or maybe just me... Seriously im having a hard time with that kind of teaching style.

DLSU Education

Im just wondering, how are you guys doing in our school today? Are you contented with the DLSU sytem of teaching? How about the transformative learning we have now? I'd like to hear from you guys!

"Sipag at Tiyaga" really works

"Manny Villar was a working student at the University of the Philippines, the premier institution of higher learning in the country, where he obtained his undergraduate and master’s degree in business administration and accountancy. By then, he was also putting in long hours as a fish and shrimp trader, where the action starts at the ungodly hours of the morning when the catch lands in the market."

Even thou Manny Villar was not blessed to have rich family, he worked hard and study hard to be successful. Still, education is a key to success. Filipinos must be insipired to do what Manny Villar did before he became the senate president.Family status is not a hindrance to have a good education, thus it must serve as a motivation to be eager to be successful.

Filipino Education

Have you guys ever gotten the saying "anak edukasyon lang maipamamana ko sa iyo"? I have gotten that every time I get to fail in my exams. But I really agree with what my parents told me because Filipinos, naturaly, value their education so much and this has really been one of the major things that helped some of our countrymen to help themselves out of poverty. Do you guys agree that Filipinos value their education?

EDUCATION IN THE PHILIPPINES

i remember when i would visit the states, my relatives would ask me and my parents about the education system we have here in the Philippines. they would always try to sales talk me to studying abroad and living with them in the states. i honestly dont believe and rely everything on education. i know its importance on every individual but there are other factors to look into besides education that shapes ones future like culture which is disregarded when we study abroad. the "filipino touch" or vibe is different when we study here. i researched on our system and found this with regards our local education system.....

Education in the Philippines has a similar system to that of the United States. Filipino children enter public school at about age four, starting from Nursery up to Kindergarten. At about seven years of age, children enter a 'primary school' (6 to 7 years). This is followed by secondary school (4 years). Students then sit for the College Entrance Examinations (CEE), after which they enter collegiate school (3 to 5 years). Other types of schools do exist, such as Private schoolsPreparatory schoolsInternational schoolsLaboratory High Schools and Science High Schools. Also, several nationalities, such as theChineseBritishAmericans, and the Japanese also have their own schools.

The school year in the Philippines starts in June of one year and ends in March of the next, with a two-month summer break for April and May, one week of semestral break (the last week of October), and a week or two of Christmas break.

In 2005, the Philippines spent only about US$138 per pupil compared to US$1,582 in SingaporeUS$3,728 in Japan, and US$852 in Thailand.[1]
