One of the best strategy to deepen and grow educational practices is to build and enhance New Literacy. Education is extremely important in everyone's life, which is why classrooms serve as students' second homes, and teachers serve as their second parents, by this teachers must give better learning opportunities for students.

Since we are now in the 21st century, it is necessary for us to adapt the changes and to aim for development of the school and learning, in order to cope up with the changes happening in our society and to improve more in terms of studies and work. Being a person who cares about the future of education, it is a must that we enhance our skills in New Literacy, because what we learn for today is what we teach in the future, if we don't have the knowledge and skills about New Literacy then how our students can be a better learners. Aside from this, New Literacy help the students to be more competent and enjoy learning, not just to be literate in the form that they only know how to read, write and count; but to improve themselves more. In classroom setting, through adapting New Literacy, teachers can enhance their teaching strategies in order to achieve a more effective learning. Not just to think inside the box or don't have any mission to help the students to get out from their shell.

For example the union of Media Literacy and Technology Literacy, as a netizen I know the major purposes of these are to make life/work easier and to serve as a medium in our communication. But then, I realized that technology having media as a platform which is the frontliner in spreading awareness, just like what my father said while watching news about Covid-19, "how much more if there is no news, no media to spread awareness. Imagine what will happened to us now". Since the Globalization took place, we now have the privilege to communicate and be part of the world's development. Using new literacy, particularly media, we can now easily assess and access information, that we can use in many purposes. As I have said that realized more the importance of new literacy that we are now facing this Pandemic, although Philippines is not that advance in technology, yet it became an advantage that students and teachers are already using some gadgets before and other medium for teaching, now it helps the education not to get pending.

Another one is the Critical Literacy, it focuses on the critical thinking, how a person analyze or interpret ideas, topics or issue. This is more useful in literature giving some critique to a particular story or piece. Although this is more complicated than simply reading and writing, yet this exercises the student's understanding, to enhance their vocabulary, and to learn more approaches.

We also have the Artistic Literacy, from the word itself "Artistic", it focuses on art; from it's history, practices, forms, finished product/piece. This literacy focuses on the creativity of every individual/students, and to appreciate art just because of it's beauty but to understand what is more behind it. For example in paintings, we have some artists who get inspiration base on their emotions and societies current situation. Dancing and singing is also a form of arr, where we can understand culture's history and beliefs. Remember that art is not only those things that we see but especially those what we feel.


I do believe that "Education is the Key of Success", this may not applicable for everyone as there are successful people who haven't finish their education but still successful through their hardwork. Yet, in most cases, education help every individual to be successful, once an individual aimed his success then it will help the community, and once the community is productive it will help the whole country.

Yes education is the key and it is very important that we are educated with our success , correct there are some successful who aren't furnished their sturdy, but there this person I know, he is successful yet his not happy, why? He's success doesn't define him, because it was given by his parents.

I agree with you my friend that education is the key to success. what happens if we don't educate at school and at home maybe we will be like someone who doesn't understand everything. this is a rational thought that everyone should follow education so that he is able to understand and understand everything and as a basis for achieving goals in various aspects of work according to expertise.

I believe in education and fully accept that education is the key to the development of human society.

But, the fearmongering news of the COVID pandemic by the mainstream media did harm more than help. It drastically reduced the resilience and immunity among global citizens.

Hello my dear friend, I am very happy to be able to read one of your interesting articles again. I completely agree with you my friend, the educational system is very important in raising the level of students' knowledge. And how great it is that technology and the Internet have come to the aid of the education system these days, and have made the education system less affected by what is happening in the world. And how great it is to be working on students 'creativity these days, and to try to increase students' creative intelligence.

Education is necessary for character building , for learning manners and also for getting the degree😁, Even though some people are getting successful without education but it's rarely happened so we should try to make the education our first priority and also advise this thing to others
