MERS-CoV – May Epekto ba sa Ekonomiya?
ni: Rosemarie C. Vero
Dalawang kaso na ang naitala na may MERS-coV sa Pilipinas ayon sa Department of Health (DOH). Ayon naman sa World Health Organization (WHO), tinatayang 36% ang naiulat na pasyente na may MERS ang namatay.
Ano nga ba ang kahulugan ng nakababahalang sakit na ito? Ang MERS-CoV o Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus ay isang viral na sakit sa paghinga na maaaring ikamatay ng isa sa loob ng sampung araw o mahigit mula sa pagkahawa sa sakit na ito. Maaari itong itulad sa pinalalang pulmonya. Ang MERS ay unang naiulat sa Saudi Arabia noong 2012. Ang mga bansang nakumpirmang apektado sa MERS-Cov mula pa noong Abril 2012 ay ang mga bansa ng Arabian Peninsula, U.S.A., at mga kalapit na bansa nito kabilang na ang Pilipinas.
Ayon sa DOH sa mga batang kamel nagmumula ang MERS , at ang matatandang kamel naman ay immune na o hindi na tintablan ng virus. Nilinaw ng mga eksperto na kasalukuyan pa itong pinag-aaralan at wala pang matibay na ebidensya na naipapasa nga ng hayop ang MERS sa tao. Ang MERS ay hindi nalalanghap sa hangin sa halip nakukuha sa plema o sipon ng may sakit. Maaring maipasa ang sakit na MERS kung ang isa ay nagkaroon ng close contact sa isang taong apektado nito.
Ang mga taong nahawahan ng MERS ay may sintomas na mataas na lagnat, ubo na maaring humantong sa pulmonya, hirap sa paghinga at pagtatae. Wala pang gamot o bakuna laban sa MERS at patuloy pang nagiimbento ang mga dalubhasa ng vaccine laban sa sakit na ito.
Karamihan sa mga taong napatunayang may MERS ay may malubhang karamdaman sa paghinga. Posibleng kumalat ito sa mga tao at mga bansa. Kaya ibayong pag-iingat para sa mga OFW na nasa Middle East lalo na ang mga nagtatrabaho sa ospital.
Isa ang bansang South Korea na apektado ng MERS at nagkaroon nga ng outbreak dito kamakailan. Ayon sa datos ng WHO, ang bilang ng kumpermadong kaso dito ay 185 at 36 na ang naiulat na namatay. Apektado na ang ekonomiya ng South Korea sa naging outbreak ng MERS. Daan-daang public events ang kinansela at ayon sa mga sinehan, theme parks at shopping malls, bagsak ang kanilang kita simula nang magkaroon ng outbreak. Ang mga supermarkets sa buong South Korea ay walang katao-tao bunsod ng pag-iwas ng mga tao na pumunta sa pampublikong lugar. Dahilan upang bumagsak ang kita ng mga negosyo at establisyemento. Mabilis din ang pagbagsak ng turismo dito sa loob lamang ng dalawang linggo na may outbreak ng nakamamatay na sakit. Bagama't wala pang travel warning na inilalabas ang WHO laban sa South Korea, ang outbreak ng MERS ay nagdudulot ng takot sa mga turistang nais tumungo sa nasabing bansa.
Kapansin-pansin ang epekto ng MERS sa ekonomiya ng South Korea, kaya naman maituturing itong hamon para sa mga taga South Korea pati na rin sa iba pang mga bansang apektado ng naturang sakit gaya ng Pilipinas.
Panahon nang isaisip natin kung ano ang ating magagawa upang makaiwas sa ganitong sitwasyon. Ang ekonomiya ng Pilipinas hindi babagsak kung bukas ang ating isipan, malawak ang ating kamalayan, at tama ang ating kahandaan sa mga napapanahong isyu at lumalaganas na sakit. #

Sa bawat paglalakbay natin sa biyahe ng ating buhay hindi mawawala ang mga panibagong pagsubok o hindi sinasadyang pangyayari na ating kahaharapin. Ito ang dahilan ng pag mulat ng bawat isa sa kanilang musmos na kaisipan tungo sa isang magandang kinabukasan.
Sa ating lipunan pinaghahandaan na ng sangkatauhan ang mga sakuna na siyang maaring kumitil sa buhay ng ilang mamamayanan. Mayroon ng mga lugar at paaralan ang hinahanda ang kanilang sarili sa “bagyo, lindol, baha at sunog.” Upang masugpo nila ang ganoong klase ng kapahamakan na ating maaring kaharapin
Tulad na lamang ng paaralan na hindi lamang kilala sa pag uwi ng mga karangalan tuwing may paligsahan ngunit kilala din na mayroong isa sa pinaka maraming numero ng mga estudyante ito ang Munoz National high School, na nagsasagawa nang ilang paghahanda sa iba’t ibang klase ng sakuna sa tulong ng mga taong may higit na kaalaman dito.
Ilan sa mga itinuro ng mga taong may katungkulan at kaalaman dito ay ang tamang paraan ng mga gagawin sa oras na atin itong maranasan. Ibinibigay din nila ang kanilang numero upang matawagan sila sa oras ng pangangailangan. Nag iiwan din sila ng mga makabuluhang salita na siyang makapagwa wasto sa mali nating kaalaman patungkol sa mga ganoong uri ng kapahamakan.
Lahat ng mga mag - aaral ay ginabayan nila upang matuto sa mga paghahandang isinasagawa. Isina puso’t isip ng lahat ng estudyante ang lahat ng kanilang itinuro na magagamit nila sa pag dating ng mga kapahamakan o sakuna na maibabahagi nila sa kanilang pamilya.
Kaya’t isang malaking tulong ang sapat na kaalaman natin na makakatulong upang buksan ang kaisipan ng bawat mamamayan sa isang makabuluhan at makakatulong na paraan upang ating makamit ang ating magandang pangarap #

CB-PAST Appraisal for Teachers Performance
By: JULIETA C. GARCILLAN-TII
CATALANACAN ES
Education is the surest way to progress. However, this progression of education must be accompanied and intensified by quality personnel in an education system. In the Philippines setting, basic education is given priority by the department of education aiming for quality education for our young minds. One of the goals of the department is to ensure that each citizen of the country should be sent in the school in free and quality education. The department of education caters basic education program that envisioned literate graduate. This aim of education will be confidently achieved through qualified education implementers and highly-competent teachers. However, the system requires relevant screening for qualified and competent teachers in the field to make sure that pupils will be properly- guided and learned the fundamentals.
Teachers are the most vital component of the educational system for the pupils to learn. In line with these provisions, the department of education has set standardized appraisal system for teachers every year to assess the competence level of teachers. The framework of this evaluation is based on the specific domains/ elements the teacher should religiously- followed. Teachers are evaluated in order to improve the teacher own practices by identifying the strength and weaknesses for further professional development and to make sure that teachers perform at their best to enhance student learning.
In Science City of Munoz, The CB-PAST ( Competency-based appraisal system for Teachers) was formally used to assess teachers performance. CB-PAST is a comprehensive appraisal system which addresses one of the mandates of the Department as embodied in the RA-9155.In practice, teachers frequently used the instrument yearly by a self-perceived assessment ,in other words, they are given the privilege to rate themselves in accord to the criteria in the specific elements or domains of the instrument. The results of their assessments were verified and properly-documented by their respective school head. In addition, this will serve as the basis for the teachers’ promotion.
However, in general practice, teachers commonly rated the instrument in a descriptive rating of “proficient” which is parallel to satisfactory rating and very few among the teachers had rated “highly proficient” or its equivalent “outstanding” which is preferably the most recommended ratings the teacher should possess. The problem behind these perceived statements strictly referring to teachers’ appraisal is to how these domains reflected in the instrument should be properly-employed by the teachers in a knowledgeable way. Thus, there are numerous perceptions and practices on the validity of the assessment for the competence of teachers. These specific problems had led the researcher to examine the prevailing status of the teachers’ performance, the assessment practices and perceived assessment of teachers and principal of the teachers’ appraisal system and its impact to the pupils learning achievement.

Creating a Balance of Priorities at Home and at Work...

Calabalabaan Elem. School
Handling on administrative task on one hand and a family on the other ,I knows quite well that conflicts and challenges can break out from everywhere."I've been through trials and challenges but I don't allow problems to interfere with my work . Happiness is an attitude . How can my presence be a blessings if I don't manifest the energy of enthusiasm that encourage and inspire the people under my influence?" Stress is synonymous to administrative job , a line of work permeating all levels of community.Spending a quality time with my daughter is a form of relaxation.Quality time doesn't mean spending 24 hours with them .It's making the best use of whatever available time there is .It is spent when there is a communication.Such as updating yourself about what is happening in school because for "children in school, little things matter."Commitment are time dividers. Being a mother and administrator requires different time segments. It should achieves a firm balance of priorities in the home and in academic work.Informing your children helps us so much in assuming our responsibilities.And give them the assurance of your love and presence. Make them feel that they are still your priority even if your busy,...And Let us credits those vibrant outlook in life to a spiritual nourishment that comes fro "God".with prayer ,one will have that glow and faith ...We wouldn't survive without prayers...
21st Century Learners

CATALANACAN ES
For educational , social and career success in the twenty-first century, students will require effective work habits, and the ability to make sound decisions, solve problems, plan effectively, work independently, communicate well, research, evaluate themselves realistically, and explore new education program, beginning in the elementary grades and continuing through secondary school, will help students acquire these skills.
Students must learn and develop skills at school that will help them become more independent and responsible individuals. They must be able to apply what they learn in school to other areas of their lives. They must learn to work cooperatively and productively with wide range of people to set and career goals, to evaluate their achievement of these goals, to evaluate their achievement of these goals and assume their roles as responsible citizens.
And since we are after for the welfare of our learners in the 21st century of learnings we must considered guidance as necessary to help the pupil with specific problems like lack of relationship between ability and achievement, deficiency in one or several school subjects, faulty study habits, defective methods of learning and poor motivation. Because the purposes of guidance and counseling services for school children are to improve academic achievement, foster positive attitudes toward school, learning , and work, increase acquisitions and application of conflict resolution skills and decrease dropouts.
And one thing more a comprehensive guidance counseling program should cover the educational, career, personal and social development of the students. Besides, prevention and remedial program are also important in helping to prevent social ills in the schools.

THE INDIVIDUAL EDUCATION IN SOCIETY
BY: DIVINA M. CAPINPIN
The normal life of an individual is interwoven with the life of society. life in society is manifested in the life of man. The life and EDUCATION of an individual taken place in the presence of human beings. No individual could ever come to be himself apart from his social contacts with other individuals. only in the presence of other human beings are meaning and purpose of human existence disclosed. Since the theory of education is an integral part of a larger theory of society, a working conception of the social process is necessary to understand the place of education in the context of a larger society.
The INDIVIDUALISTIC VIEW is based on the assumption that society is composed of isolated individuals who are independent and unconnected, except in a mechanical way. Individuals are conceived as real units, while society is viewed as a secondary unit. As a counterpart of nominalism and atomism, this view insist that only the particular is real, and that the individual is an original and indestructible entity, and that society is merely an effect.
The weakness of the theory is seen the question is asked: How do such atomic individuals come together to form a society? The support for this view is the notion that individuals, in order to ensure their co-called natural rights contract themselves, into freedom and equality. This theory of individualism helps in establishing the moral value of the individual personality, which is essential for human progress and freedom.
The SOCIALISTIC VIEW regards society as having existed in some way prior to the individual. It tends to make the individual subordinate his own welfare to society. In the same veign, society is more important than the individual.
The MECHANIC VIEW posits the reality of both individual and society; it maintain that in certain spheres action, the individual is supreme, but in others, society is supreme. The everyday practical person appears to subscribe to this conception; most persons, perhaps, accept this view. one can argue against pure individualism or pure socialism, but in much of the thinking at present, the individual is recognized as an independent reality who, in interacting with other individuals, enters into life of society, conforms to its laws, and becomes socialite in certain occasions.
The ORGANIC VIEW attempts to bridge the three views, in a way that makes it more comfortable to the facts. Its conception proceeds on the assumption that society is essentially a physical organization that in the constitution of human nature is found the factor which enables one individual to adapt to another in a manner that becomes the basis for UNITY among the various forms of human interests and activity.
It postulates that (1) there is an interest between the individual and society, and (2) that possibility of the development of the individual, as well as that of HIS EDUCATION, lies in acquiring consciousness and in participating in social activities. The principle of congruence of the individual and the social good occupies an important place in the areas of MORALS and EDUCATION.
