...tutor, Doña Teodora discovered that her son had a creative and in-depth talent for poetry so she encouraged him to write poems to reduce the monotony of memorizing the ABC’s and to stimulate her son’s imagination. As Rizal grew older, his parents employed private tutors. His first private tutor was Maestro Celestino, followed by Maestro Lucas Padua and later, an old man named Leon Monroy. Monroy lived at the Rizal residence and instructed Jose in Spanish and Latin. Unfortunately, after 5 months of teaching, he passed away. After Monroy’s death, Rizal’s parents decided to send him to a private school in Biñan. Life and Studies in Ateneo (1872-1877) In 1865, college began to function in the Philippines when the Jesuits returned. Jesuits were considered as the best educators in Spain, and perhaps in Europe. So they established an institution called the Ateneo de Municipal. The Instruction of Jesuitical system was considered advanced. Their methods were less mechanical and rigid in discipline. Jesuits introduced physical culture as well as art cultivation, such as music, drawing, and painting. Agriculture, commerce, and mechanics were part of their vocational courses.

...A SWOT ANALYSIS ON RIZAL LAW _____________________________ Presented to Dr. Estimada CAS Faculty In partial fulfilment of the Requirement of the Subject Rizal ______________________________ May 2014 Introduction In school, we students study the life and works of our national hero Jose P. Rizal. Our teachers taught us that the Calamba hero was born as the seventh of the children of Doña Teodora and Don Francisco. We can also remember how he pursued his studies until he was able to travel to different places and encountered different challenges. We can’t as well forget his two of his great works Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo. And the event on how he died in Luneta is still in our memories as we observe Rizal Day on December 30 yearly. We Filipinos are until today educated about Dr. Rizal. One can possibly wonder why we are studying our national hero as a subject itself. It is simply because Rizal Course is mandated by law under Republic Act 1425 or known as Rizal Law. Many may not be familiar with this law. This act was before Senate Bill No. 438 written and sponsored by former Senator Claro M. Recto and then written by former Senator Jose P. Laurel as R.A. 1425. On the 12th day of June 1956, the bill was enacted. Rizal law is made up of six sections that can be conceptualized in the law’s three major provisions. First, it directs educational agencies to include in the curricula of all schools, colleges and universities, public or private, the study of the...

During the American period, the first English translation, An Eagle Flight, based on the first French translation in 1899, was published in 1900. The second English translation, entitled Friars and Filipinos, appeared in 1902, and it was made by Frank Ernest Gannett, then secretary to Jacob Schurman, chair of the First Philippine Commission.

...WEIGHING AGAINST HISTORY: REVOLUTION VERSUS PROPAGANDA Introduction: The Philippine literature that we are using nowadays rooted merely from the revolutionary period during the Spanish colonization. At those times, Revolutionists emerged and wrote independence-based literary works that were brought by the misunderstanding of the aims of the propagandists and revolutionists. The propaganda movement only aimed for equality and reform of the Spanish constitution in the Philippines and not for total independence from Spain’s influence, which later on became the aim of the Revolutionists. In accordance to this, the study aimed to make a comparison: the Philippine Literature and History that that brought independence; and the Philippine Literature and History that never undergo Revolution. The study will detail each of the situation’s benefits and non-benefits to the society and the culture of the Philippines under the Spanish period. I. The Philippine Literature and History that Brought Independence “And so, Farewell, this is our final cry.” The line was taken from the famous literary work of Andres Bonifacio, “The Final Cry of the Filipinas”.

As improvement on CELTECH COLLEGE accelerates, this issue can arise within a year or two of purchase. In some cases, particularly where the technology will continue to perform satisfactorily to their students notwithstanding that it is obsolete, it may be worth retaining.
