An Experience

            Learning amidst pandemic is really hard for every student like me since we are not ready for this school year, but DepEd still pushes it because they said that they will not let the children nothing to learn within this pandemic. For the first time in my whole life, I got to experience this kind of education where you can also learn a lesson.

            All throughout this 1st Quarter in ICT, I learned how to write blogs which trains me to broaden my knowledge in giving opinions, ideas and thoughts about a certain topic. To critique a blog in a manner way that enabled me to connect to other people

             In learning, students will inevitably encounter a problem. As I experienced, this new normal type of education is really stressful and hard. Being in a classroom helps me to concentrate than modular learning, I find it more difficult to understand the lesson. There were times when I have to skip meals and to sleep late at night just to finish all the given tasks. During the first week, I am having a difficulty in managing my time, but as time goes by, I finally able to adapt by making a daily schedule.

            There is no challenge that we cannot survive. I will take all the lessons with me throughout my life for it taught me how to stand on my own and be the better version of myself.

Awareness towards Nature Contemporary Issues

            Climate Change and Global Warming are one of the concurrent issues in Philippines that people and the government should take it solemnly and which should be given a solution. Global warming refers to the spike in global temperatures due largely to the rising atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases. While Climate Change is the rising changes, including precipitation, temperature and wind patterns, in climate observations over a long period of time.

            Rising of sea levels, floods, and frequent storms are just some of the effects of this. It also becomes a problem for farmers because it will result to a shortage of water supply that their plant (rice) needed. Drought affects the height of the rice, the number of grains, and the content of the grains. But how to deal with this problem if we—people ourselves are one of the reasons why the climate is changing? If people are unaware that through their own personal lifestyle choices is slowly affecting the nature? 

            If awareness only exists, we will be able to overcome the challenges of Climate Change and Global Warming.  As a student, for me to raise awareness is to use social media platform ‘cause I know that when you use social media to raise awareness, it will have a good impact and get people’s attention. I will post contents that are related to the issue to inform and educate youths of today about what is happening here in the Philippines and also for them to know what they can do to help solve the problem.

            Saving the earth is a global concern and should be treated as one. We must continue to spread awareness and be active in participating any activity related to protecting the nature to ensure that future generations have a better world to live in.
