...have students work in teams on industry-contributed “real world” projects. Industry partners contribute projects, mentor students, give a guest lecture, and provide the opportunity for students to present their project at the industry site. Students work on projects in teams and are given milestones and schedules to follow. The milestones include formal requirements, specifications and design, prototype demonstration, test plan, and final project delivery and presentation. The final presentation includes a project demonstration, user documentation, press release, and a poster that is permanently displayed in the department seminar room. The course includes formal lecture and reading assignments on the development process. A midterm exam covers these topics. Soft topics include discussions on working in teams. Our industry partners stress the importance of students being able to work well in teams. We hope that our experience can serve as a guide for other engineering departments considering industry partnering for their capstone design courses. 1.

...THE PERCEPTION OF YS-10 LEARNERS IN THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE K-12 CURRICULUM A research presented to In Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for CAE, Economics and Mathematics 11 CHAPTER I PROBLEM AND ITS SETTING I. Introduction Education is a basic human right and a significant factor in the development of children, communities, and countries. (Herz, B. and Sperling G.B., 2004) It is valued by a lot of Filipinos mainly because it is the start of economic improvement and it is the key to a brighter future. The Philippines was one of only three countries in the world and the only one in Asia that still had 10 years in basic education. This has always been seen as a disadvantage for the learners who are competing in an increasingly global job market and also reason of having a high number of unemployment in the country. The government asserts that with the implementation of K12 program, the problem of unemployment in the country will be resolved. In as much as employment in the Philippines is concerned, the K12 education also responds to the fact that most countries in the world already have the same plan in their educational institutions. With this, the standards of these countries go a notch higher than what the country has, thus, creating an expansion in the global competency. (DepEd, 2010) President Aquino aforementioned that we needed to add two more years of basic education in the country. Those who can afford to pay up to fourteen...
