Should Distance Learning be Continued even after the Pandemic?
Each one of us has experienced various changes in life, cause by our current situation. And we have to adopt these changes for the safety of ourselves and families. Corona Virus Disease is such a burden to everyone of us. It changed some of our traditions, especially in the feild of education.
When I was still in Junior High, it was so difficult for me to understand the topics of every subjects, even if there was a teacher. Now it becomes more difficult because there is no longer a teacher, explaining and teaching a particular topic. Step by step.
School year 2020-2021 is the most difficult school year for me,because of distance learning. One week is not enough for one module. Also,we have many subject that has lessons that can always squeeze the very last drop of knowledge and creative juices in my brain. That is why distance learning must not continue after the pandemic.
If this way of teaching and learning continues, not everyone can afford or has good gadgets and abundant internet connection. Sometimes it goes into vague misunderstanding in sending a message about a concern or instructions using social media accounts.And it may sound exaggerated but it is draining some of the learners. Not just physically but also mentally and emotionally. Because school and house or family problems are coming at once, that may cause the students to feel they can no longer breathe. We have too many responsibilities in just one place,that we can not enjoy or have fun anymore. And speaking of fun, many learners has lost their appetite for studying. Not because they are being lazy, but because there is no more fun while learning and discovering things alone. Just too much pressure, cause by deadlines and high expectations.
Some still wants to stay on top and learn something new, but self learning is not easy. A close person or not, expectations are everywhere.They think distance learning is easier than face to face. But no, it is not easy and will never be easy. Sometimes because of pressures, learner's will choose not to have a rest just to pass their outputs on time or before the deadlines. In distance learning the modules seem limitless, module after module.
Distance learning will never let some of the students learn, because some of them will only seek answers in the web and not in their own understandings.They will become dependent to it. Also, students only attend school this time because they do not want to waste the year, and they are afraid to be left behind by their batchmates.
Most students prefer traditional classes than online classes because with traditional classes you will not only study and learn through the discussion of the teacher, but you will also learn how to socialize with other people. And you'll have fun while learning.You can also build your confidence in mingling with different kinds of people. You can also do a lot of physical activities, and you can build a great relationship with your classmates, that can be turn into a squad for life. In online classes, socializing with others is limited. That is why distance learning must not continue after the pandemic.

Our Mother is Also Our Father
No matter how many people you may lose, you have no choice but to go on living. No matter how devastating the blows might be."
I was still 2yrs and 5 months old when our "haligi ng tahanan" choose to leave us, forever. I only have one memory of my Dad, but it was the day we brought the remains of his body to his grave. And sadly in that memory, his face is blurred.
That time I am still clueless of what's happening in my surroundings. In my mind it was still a big question "Why was our father put inside a box? I am still confused "Why is everyone around me, was crying? Especially my mother who was carrying me in her arms.
Life is not easy, but its a blessing. I am the youngest of four siblings. After our father passed away, our life was never been easy. Specially to our Mom and to our oldest Sister. Yes, we have relatives that are only one or three blocks away from our so called "home" that time, but instead of helping us to rise again. They choose to drag us down, even more. It's just one of the reasons why I do not believe in the quote that says "blood is thicker than water"
Our Mother, is also our Father. Being a widow did not stop our Mom from being deficient, and raised us properly. She always do everything, to rebuild our little home. Even though she have to become both our "ilaw" and "haligi ng tahanan".
I can not imagine the other things our mother went through, that she didn't say to us, just to provide both our needs and wants. As far as I know, everything she did and sacrificed for us was from her good and legal deeds. And I promise to myself that I will never waste those things she did.
Growing up without a father was never an obstacle for us to go to school and graduate. Not to bragged but also with honors. During this time, my three siblings are now helping our Mother to provide the needs of our family. Because they already graduated and have good jobs.
Having an incomplete family is not an obstacle for us to reach our dreams and slowly achieve our goals. But in my situation, I have never felt that there is something lacking in myself. Because our mother did well in being both a loving and caring mother and a protective and hardworking father to us. She raised us to have trust and fear of our God. That we should always have courage and always be kind to everyone. And forgive those people who don't even ask for forgiveness.
-by the way this is my speech in the task given in one of our subject, oral communication in context. What do you think?

Hi Everyone! I'll post my 3rd and 4th article soon Hope you'll read and support it 😊 thank you 😙🌹
Hello everyone. I am new to this platform. Hoping to have more virtual friends :)
"The Evolution Technologies"
Just wanna share the essay that I wrote for our "Empowering Technologies". So we are asked to write about us being DIGITAL NATIVES and how technologies helped us today.
This people's generation is called "Digital Natives". Technologies are already very familiar to us because we've grown with them. Technologies are very useful, it makes some of our tasks become easier and makes us become efficient. But it has also bad effects depends on how it is being used. And seems like some people, specially the young ones cannot live without technologies around them.
Instead of writing a letter to bedelivered to a particular person which may take a couple of weeks or months before they can receive it now we open our social media accounts to communicate or do video call to the people we love. And instead of going to library to find a book that has the answer of our homework, we automatically grab our phones or go to internet cafe to search the information we need.
Doing a research is systematic investigation in the field of knowledge and the information that we need is more likely already in the internet. It
is just a matter of how to look for it and how to use information from the most reliable source.
In this lesson I've learned the importance of five online research tips that I must remember and apply to myself.
First, we'll have a question in mind and we must focus in finding the answer of that question. Researching online has so many distractions, specially if we discover new things while searching, that gets our attention even if it is not related to the answer we are searching for, so we must focus in finding the answer.
Second, narrow it down. Search engines like Google, Bing or Yahoo uses several filters to determine the most appropriate result for us. These search engines use our previous search history and geographical location then, send to us the result which is most related to the information we needed.
Third, advanced search. This is the best way to filter information we get from search engines allowing us to filter out information we do not need. Sometimes in doing our research there are some results that are not related that can lead us to misinformation to what we really search for, we must filter those results out.
Four, look for a realible source. We should look for a reliable source because research will be useless if the source we used in acquiring information are incorrect and uncertain.
Five, give credit. If we are going to use the information from a source for educational purposes, give credit to the original author of the page or information, this is to avoid plagiarism issues. Include the link of the website if you are doing a thesis as to where you based your statements. Make sure to input if its based on experiment or facts.
Internet is powerful tool. It gives wonders to us that makes everything way easier. It is used to promote business, gain new friends, and stay in touch. It is also a source of entertainment through games, online communities, and everything in between. Through internet, we can also gain knowledge and discover new things valuable for our day to day life. Be it simple life hacks, home improvement, how-to details and the likes.

"🌹✨MY INTRO✨🌹"
A gorgeous lady is a gorgeous lady. But a gorgeous lady with brain, pure heart and soul is a lethal combination.
Minasan, yoiichinichiwo!
Should I say 🤗GOOD DAY EVERYONE!🤗
I am Deity_Eretria the youngest and jolly sister of @Glez. I am 17 years stunner 😌and in this coming month of September I'll turn 18 🙁 . I am a pure Filipina (binibini).
I love reading wattpad, watching anime and I belong to a fandom of GOT7, called AHGASE💚. I am not good in any online game,but last month I just started playing ML and I could say that it is really fun and thrilling. Also, I am an animal lover because I love my squad 😂😌.
I am a grade 11 STEM (Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics) student but I wanted to all of you to know that even though I'm in this Strand, I am not that "smart" but I'm proud to say that I am a hardworking student. No matter what strand I'll choose, I know that there's no easy strand in Senior High School.
Honestly, I never thought to be in this strand because there are some people who have already told me that this strand is very difficult and, I was suppose to get the GAS (General Academic Studies) strand to become a Teacher. It is the ambition that my heart and our financial capabilities can afford, and I already plan it since I was in my 9th grade.But to become a Pilot is the great ambition that my heart really wants, even if it is very impossible for me to become one.We were not rich, and we even rarely had food on the table but, I have a very supportive family.Both Pilot and Teacher are under in the STEM strand, though I will first take the course of education after my senior high school, so even if I am not that "smart" I took all the risk just to be in this strand.
I believe that the harder the battle, the sweeter the victory. Other than our great Creator, my family give me the strength and confidence to make the impossible things become possible.
I also love to draw random things especially anime. Whenever I felt confident enough I will share those to you. I also had different adventures and shots though I am not a pro but I am excited to also share it.
By the way are you in noise? Do not hesitate to connect with me because I am too a noiser! It is all because of my sister. Dropped the link below:
