ANG SULIRANIN AT ANG KALIGIRAN NITO

Introduksyon

Ang pag-aaral sa lebel tersyaryo ay isang napakakritikal na baitang tungo sa ating paghahanap ng karera sa buhay. Dito matututunan ng mag-aaral ang mga esensyal na karunungang mayroong kinalaman sa nais niyang kuning kurso. Bagama’t lubusan ang naging pagahahanda ng karamihan sa mga naunang lebel ng edukasyon – paaralang primarya at sekundarya – mayroon pa ring iilan sa na hindi pa kayang matugunan ang mga intelektwal na pangangailangan sa kolehiyo. Ang transisyon mula sekundarya patungong tersyaryo ay isang hamon na nakaharap sa mga estudyante sa kanilang unang taon sa tersyaryo, sapagkat ang buhay sa isang mataas na institusyon ay isang malawak na learning environment na sumasaklaw sa kasarinlan na pag-aaral. Sa isang mataas na institusyon kagaya ng Unibersidad ng Liceo de Cagayan, ang mga mag-aaral ay kinakailangang maging marunong sa bagong kultura at mga etnisidad ng kaligiran, at magkaroon ng kamalayan sa mga kahalagahan at saloobin ng Unibersidad, kung saan sa isang de-kalidad na institusyon, inaasahan ang mataas na pamantayan sa pagsunod sa mga akademikong regyulasyon. (Brick, J 2006) Mula sa perspektib ng isang High School Learning System, ang tersyaryo ay may napakalaking kaibahan kung ikukumpara sa sekundarya, kung saan ang mga mag-aaral ay hinihikayat na maipakita ang kanilang kasarinlan sa paglinang pati na rin ang pagkupkop sa isang kapaligiran ng pagtutulungan kasama ang kanyang kapwa mag-aaral upang malampasan ang mga inisyal na suliranin kaakibat ng isang akademikong disposisyon. (Devlin, M 2009)

Maliban sa pang-akademikong kaibahan ng tersyaryo at sekundarya, masasabing malaki ang pagkakaiba sa estratehiya ng pagturo. Isa sa mga mapapansing pagkakaiba ng paaralang tersyaryo mula sa sekundarya at primarya ay ang time schedule. Kung sa sekundarya ay sunod-sunod ang mga klase at walang bakanteng oras na nakalaan bawat araw, naiiba naman ang kolehiyo sapagkat kalat-kalat ang oras ng mga asignatura. Bunga ito ng mahirap na pag-akomoda sa mga time schedule ng mga asignatura. Bagaman at hinihikayat ang mga mag-aaral na pagtuunan ng pansin ang kanilang mga akademikong pangangailangan, hindi lahat ay ginagamit ang kanilang panahon sa gayong layunin. Isang malaking tulong ang palipat-lipat na time iskedyul para sa mga mag-aaral sapagkat maraming gamit ang bakanteng oras tulad ng paggawa ng mga proyekto at aralin o mag—aral / maghanda para sa susunod na mga asignatura, ngunit hindi lahat ay maparaan sa paggamit ng kanilang bakanteng oras. Mayroong iilan na lumalagi sa mga nethaus at internet cafes o hindi kaya’y inuubos ang oras sa mga mall na dapat sana’y naroon sila sa silid-aklatan at nag-aaral. Ayon sa isang sarbey na isinagawa ng Social Weather Station (SWS) noong 1996, maraming elementong nakasagabal sa produktibong paggamit ng mga kabataan sa kanilang oras. Malimit na lamang ang nagbabasa ng mga libro, magasin o pahayagan ang kabataang Pilipino. Hindi na rin masyadong sumasali ang mga kabataan sa isports – isa na lamang sa dalawampung kabataan ang nag-aabala pang sumali sa mga palaro o hindi kaya ay neg-eehersisyo. Isa sa walong kabataan ang sumasali sa mga samahang pampalakasan o recreational organizations at sa mga klab sa simbahan. At sa halip na sumali ang kabataan sa nabanggit na mga aktibidades, kapansin-pansing nalululong ang ilan sa bisyo. Sa tala ng SWS noong Abril ng 1996, humigit-kumulang 20% ng kabataan mula edad 15 hanggang 30 taong gulang ang nalulong sa alak at paninigarilyo. Sa gayong sarbey, 13% ng kabataan ang nakadaan na sa premarital sex. Dahil sa gayong mga hadlang sa produktibong paggamit ng oras, unti-unti na ring bumaba ang kalidad ng edukasyon sa bansa. Kapuna-punang marami nang mga kolehiyo ang puwersahang napasara ng Comission on Higher Education dahil sa napakababang passing rate sa board exam.

Paglalahad ng Layunin at Suliranin Pangunahing layunin ng papel na ito ang malaman kung maparaan o epektibo sa pag-aaral ang paggamit ng mga Licean sa kanilang free time o bakanteng oras. Upang magawa ito, pinagsikapang sagutin ang mga sumusunod na katanungan: 1. Anong mga aktibidades ang pinag-aabalahan ng mga Licean tuwing mayroon silang bakanteng oras? 2. Saan pumupunta ang mga Liceans kapag mayroon silang bakanteng oras? 3. Ano-ano ang mga paktors o impluwensiya na nagdudulot sa mga Licean na lumabas o manalagi sa loob ng kampus 4. Sino ang madalas na kasama ng mg Licean tuwing bakante ang kanilang iskedyul?

Saklaw at Delimitasyon Saklaw lamang ng pag-aaral na ito ang pagsusuri sa mga estratehiya ng mga mag-aaral ng Unibersidad ng Liceo de Cagayan sa kanilang paggamit ng bakanteng oras hinggil sa kanilang pag-aaral. Hindi tinatalakay ng papel na ito ang sosyal, emosyonal, pisikal, mental o ispiritwal na debelopment ng mga mag-aaral tuwing ginagamit nila ang kanilang bakanteng oras. Sinakop lamang ng pag-aaral ang isandaang estudyante mula sa piling limang kolehiyo ng Unibersidad – Physical Therapy, Radiologic Technology, Psychology, Accountancy at Medical Technology – kung saan bawat kolehiyo ay mayroong 20 respondents na kumakatawan, mula sa iba-ibang antas na taon.

Metodolohiya a) Riserts Lokal Ang pag-aaral na ito ay isinagawa sa Unibersidad ng Liceo de Cagayan, isang pribadong non-sectarian na Unibersidad na naitatag noong 1955 sa pangunguna nina Atty. Rodolfo Neri Pelaez at Elsa Pelaez Pelaez. Ito ay binubuo ng 11 na mga kolehiyo at 5 departamento. Ang Unibersidad ay mayroong dalawang kampus, kung saan ang kasalukuyang presidente ay si Dr. Mariano M. Lerin.

b) Disenyo Deskriptibong pamaraan sa uring sarbey ang ginamit sa riserts na ito. Tinalakay ang pagsusuri sa mga nakalap na datos mula sa mga impormante.

c) Mga Respondent Isandaang mag-aaral na respondents mula sa limang piling kolehiyo ng Unibersidad - Physical Therapy, Radiologic Technology, Psychology, Accountancy at Medical Technology – ang pinagkunan ng datos na pinag-aralan, kung saan ang bawat napiling kolehiyo ay kinakatawan ng 20 respondents. Sa pagpili ng mga impormante, binigyang konsiderasyon ang pagiging magkaibigan ng mga mananaliksik at impormante. Sa kondisyong iyon, mas napadali ang pagkalap ng mga datos. Dahil sa kapalagayang-loob ang ginawang mga impormante, naging maluwag ang pagkuha ng mga impormasyon sa paraang pasulat at pasalita

d) Pangangalap ng Datos at Instrumento Sa pamamagitan ng sarbey kwestyoner, kinalap ang mga datos sa unang bahagi ng Marso 2010. Personal na ginawa ng mga risertser ang pamimigay ng mga sarbey kwestyoner.

e) Interpretasyon ng mga Datos Ginawan ng tabyular na presentasyon ang mga nakalap na datos na sinundan ng tekstwal na analisis at interpretasyon. Bilang istatistikal na instrumento, ginamit ang frequency count na may formula na P = Dalas ng Bilang / N x 100

...writing. In fact, the three universities that I have attended in the past have all required me to use the APA style of writing. As I recall my high school years, the APA style of writing also seemed to be a favorite amongst my high school teachers. They all required that term papers be written in APA style as well. This type of writing actually does not differ much from the ones included in the text reading. The text mentioned the APA style of writing several times. In my opinion, it appears to be the most popular style of writing, especially amongst college students. Based on the results of the quizzes, my grammar skills were actually a little better than average. I actually had expected to do better, but I guess my grammar skills are not as good as I thought they were. In any event I feel very confident when it comes to spelling, as I have always been a great speller. Even in grade school, I was a good speller. I learned at a very young age to challenge myself when it comes to spelling. Challenging my-self in that area really paid off as I became older, as I’ve never had a problem with spelling. However, I feel that I need more help with run on sentences and with thought patterns. Though I proof read my paper several times, it’s hard for me to see that I have several run on sentences until after I get my grade back. In general, I feel that my writing is just mediocre. However, I also believe that when it comes to writing, I am my own worst critic. Reason being, I am never...

How to Write a Good Academic Paper?

Cig Rolling

...Joe Polce English 015 Mrs. Wickman How To Roll Your Own Cigarette Is anyone in your life a cigarette smoker? Do you often notice that they are always complaining about their ever-rising price? According to the U.S Census Bureau, out of the 6.7 billion people in the world, 2 billion are smokers of cigarettes or some other form of tobacco. Almost 75% of these 2 billion spend between $1000 - $1500 yearly on their favorite packs and cartons that they just cannot resist. We know its a habit, right? Its also an expensive habit. I am going to show you a quick and easy way to not only cut the cost of cigarettes in half, but also save you hundred of dollars. A select few smokers of the modern world have been fortunate enough to find the solution to the climbing prices of cigarettes. This solution is actually very simple. Why don’t we, instead of spending the $6 plus on an already produced pack of Marlboro Lights, make and produce our own pack of very similar cigarettes? Herein lies the solution; roll your own cigarettes. Most people shy away from such an idea claiming that they would never know where to start, or have no idea where they would buy the equipment, but on contrary the first steps to this new lifestyle are very easy, and the tools needed are readily available.

Reflection Instructions

...Reflection Paper Assignments Due Dates: March 20, April 3, May 1 Overview These reflection papers are the chance for you to review your recent journal entries (or the sum total, if that helps) and to synthesize some thread of thinking or learning that you find in there. You might build on a single entry or on something bridging multiple entries, but the point is to capture something that you are learning. We expect the paper to have some over-arching, coherent argument so that it is not simply a string of thoughts. A string of thoughts is fine for your journal entries, but here we do want some synthesis. You should not spend time summarizing your activities, unless that is essential for your argument. Grading Criteria The criteria we will use to evaluate the papers are listed below. Note that you do not have to address all of these criteria in one paper. We want you to address all of them over the course of the semester, but any single paper can focus on only one or two of these. Regardless of what you choose to write your reflection synthesis on, your paper must demonstrate clear, coherent argumentation. 1. Expression of Learning 2. Discussion and/or synthesis of course readings 3. Reflection on assumptions and cultural frames of reference 4. Connection to proposal process Word Count The reflection papers, except for the final one, should be at least 500 words, but not a lot longer than that. The final paper should be around...
