->WANTED CHANGE!!

          Every people want to change our community right now. Why? because in our society right now has a many problems to solve. Philippines is the name of our country, and I thought that this country has a green and clean but it is not, so I want a change!
          Philippines needs to change.
 
Using models provide a basis for review, analysis, planning, design, implementation, and feedback on the process of rational change. However, the most essential question to ask is “What should the system be doing? How should it be working?” . 
             How? why? what? and when will be our country Philippines will want to change?
             Is the Philippines ready to change? Well I will put it in this way.. The early majority is not ready yet. The laggards well, uh-mm?? they don't wanna think about "change". When we say laggards, means
             
Laggards use friends and neighbors as information sources, dislike change, and accept new things only when forced to.
        And in this situation right now is what we call that in our country needs improvement.

I'm not only the one who want a change in the Philippines, but also we are all want a BIG CHANGE that we want to prove. That's all..

Keeping in Mind, Our Mother Tongue

          Every language spoken in the world represents a special culture, melody, color, and asset and to everyone the mother language is certainly one of the most precious treasures in our lives. It’s a duty and responsibility to preserve it and pass it down from generation to generation. Whether we are urged by necessity or because of other reasons, learning another language brings a lot of advantages in our life. A new language opens a new window in our world view and makes us more aware, open-minded, and respectful to other cultures, lifestyles, customs and beliefs. Moreover, knowing another language has been proven to contribute to helping us understand our mother tongue better. However, much research indicates that most children eventually learn a second, or even more, languages to a native-like fluency level, what immigrant families are not often aware of is that many of their children are at risk of losing their mother tongue. 
          Mother language has a very powerful impact in the formation of the individual. Our first language, the beautiful sounds of which one hears and gets familiar with before being born while in the womb, has such an important role in shaping our thoughts and emotions. 
          A child connects to his parents, family, relatives, culture, history, identity and religion through his mother tongue. Native language links the child with the culture of the society the child comes from and shapes his identity. A lot of children from immigrant families, who don’t know their native language well, are at a crossroads of identity crisis. When a child doesn't know his language well we cannot say that he will be nurtured with his culture properly for the fact that the relationship between language and culture is deeply rooted. Mother tongue is one of the most powerful tools used to preserve and convey culture and cultural ties.

Equal Rights, Equal Opportunity

          Equal rights and opportunities lead to improved health outcomes for women and girls. Discrimination towards women and girls, or what is known as gender-based discrimination, is one of the most pervasive human rights violations. It severely limits the ability of women, girls and the communities they live in to protect and promote their health. The health of women and girls needs legal and political actions.Gender-based discrimination limits the attainment of international health and development goals. 
          Gender-based discrimination is irrevocably connected to negative health outcomes for women and girls. Its associated poor health outcomes are often compounded by other forms of inequality related to socioeconomic status, ethnicity, sexual orientation, religious affiliation or geographical location. Day renews our commitment to denounce violations in human rights and to challenge unequal systems, structures and practices that perpetuate health inequalities across the world. Gender equality is good for health.

responding to climate change

          Climate change A study dealing with variations in climate on many different time scales from decades to millions of years, and the possible causes of such variations. In the most general sense, the term "climate change" encompasses all forms of climatic inconstancy that is, any differences between long-term statistics of the meteorological elements calculated for different periods but relating to the same area regardless of their statistical nature or physical causes.
          Climate change may result from such factors as changes in solar activity, long-period changes in the Earth's orbital elements, natural internal processes of the climate system, or anthropogenic forcing ,for example, increasing atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases.
           The term "climate change" is often used in a more restricted sense, to denote a significant change such as a change having important economic, environmental and social effects in the mean values of a meteorological element in particular temperature or amount of precipitation in the course of a certain period of time, where the means are taken over periods of the order of a decade or longer.

She is also my good friend, a sister and of-course a great mother . Even though, sometimes I hate her but in  the bottom of my heart I really love her. She gave me what i want. She is the one who gave me strength when I'm down, and supports me well. She gives me instruction when I have a fault.

Digital Literacy Through English Proficiency

          Literacy has traditionally been described as the ability to read for knowledge, write coherently and think critically about printed material while Proficiency is the mastery of a specific behavior or skill demonstrated by consistently superior performance, measured against established or popular standards.
        
Digital literacy is the ability to locate, organize, understand, evaluate, and analyze information using digital technology. It involves a working knowledge of current high-technology, and an understanding of how it can be used. Digitally literate people can communicate and work more efficiently, especially with those who possess the same knowledge and skills.
Research around digital literacy is concerned with wider aspects associated with learning how to effectively find, use, summarize, evaluate, create, and communicate information while using digital technologies, not just being literate at using a computer.
Teachers often teach digital literacy skills to students who use computers for research. Such skills include verifying credible sources Online and how to cite Web sites. Google and Wikipedia are used by students "for everyday life research."[5]
Educators are often required to be certified in digital literacy to teach certain software and, more prevalently, to prevent plagiarism amongst students.
Libraries are using games increasingly such as the Digital Literacy Contest to raise awareness about digital literacy.
         And that is what i described the meaning of "Digital Literacy Through English Proficiency"
