Youth, the key factor to having a greater future

-

 

The month of November is National Children’s month wherein the month-long celebration aims to give Filipino Children access to healthcare and proper education. The late Dr. Jose Rizal once said that “the youth is the future of the nation, investing in key children is key for the betterment of the next generation. It is true that the youth is the hope for the future because we know that they will be the ones who will rule the nation.

The celebration has an objective and that is to ensure that all children are given proper healthcare, education, and protection. As a Filipino, I know that the aims of celebration are not being achieved due to the fact that there are still report cases of child abuse, improper nutrition of children, child delinquency and high percentage of drop-outs in school. These percentage leaves a one big question, The national children’s month have been celebrated for more than 7 years, but what have we achieved so far?

For now we can start by fixing our system. In order for the youth to feel safe we need to build a country where they feel loved, cared, and protected.


 

The youth is the key to building a better future, however if we don’t educate them nor protect them, I don’t think we can achieve such future. So what we need to do is to close the gaps that stops them from achieving their goal. Because a bright child shows a bright future.

    Indeed, the youth are the key to building a better future.

Additional Knowledge

  During the 1st Quarter Our teacher taught us a lot of lessons mainly the Origin of the Internet. I have also learned the history of Philippine Internet, she also thought us how to write a blog, The importance of Protocool, different kinds of Search Engines and Search Terms.   There can’t be a quarter where there are no problems I encountered. In the 1st Quarter the main problems I encountered are the difficulty in Answering during quizzes, also I have no knowledge in our topic because I am not that good in computer. I have addressed this challenge by putting more effort in this subject and by doing that I can say that I enjoy this subject a lot because It is fun, plus our teacher is fun, and approachable.   Moving on I hope that I can still learn more about computers because this knowledge is helpful in real life. I know I still have more things to learn especially this is still the 1st of the 4 quarters we have in order to finish junior high school.

A quick retrospective on my ICT 10 Q2 Journey

How fast it has been, I feel like it was just yesterday when we started Quarter 2 and now I can’t believe that I am now writing a Q2 journey draft. In Quarter 1 we learned about the history of the Internet and now we have learned about Html Tags. Q2 was a 4-month long journey, on the first week we studied Introduction to Html Tags, these days I have no idea about tags and HTML because I have no knowledge or background in computers, which is why I have a high interest in this subject, I want to learn new things. Forward to the Second Week, on these days I have now little knowledge about HTML and tags and that is when we had a quiz I remember I did not even study and I barely passed, I remember being so sad because of my grades but when I heard my classmate proudly shouted a score a bit lesser than mine, I kept wondering why he is still so happy regardless of his score so I asked him, and he said “I don’t care as long as I pass” and I just laughed at him for being so simple-minded, I bel...

The ones who created professionals

  Teachers, Educators, or To Our Second Parents, the one who teaches us in school. From the lowest to the highest grade level they are the one who educates us, guide us, and also care for us. A world without a teacher is nothing but a uneducated world, because teachers are the one's who created professionals, without teachers there will be no Doctors, engineers, lawyers, and many more. I wanna express my gratitude to all of my teachers, for their unconditional care and support for us, their student. There is a teacher whom what he said, I can never forget "The greatest treasure or wealth a teacher can have is to see their student succeed". That message have made my respect for teachers even higher. Honestly before he said that I only see my teachers as a Instructor or a grade giver, but now I see my teachers as a Second Parent because they guide me and give me lessons that can later be used in life.
