...achievement and could help the students boost their performance. And having a good facility appear to be an important requirement for student learning, provided that the other conditions are present that support a strong academic program in the school. Also, they ensure the safety of the students by constructing their buildings to satisfy high-level earthquake resistance standards. The buildings are designed to minimize structural damage in the event of an earthquake. So that, the students will not be worried about their safety anymore and they can concentrate their minds in studies. Today, the government of the Philippines was creating new government that aims to focus on the education of their citizens. The Philippines have started to implement a new educational system which is the compulsory K-12 educational system that includes the new curricula for all schools (Wikipedia, March 10, 2014). It aims to fully enhance and develop the students in order for them to be well-prepared especially in emotional and cognitive aspects, and to uplift the quality of education in the Philippines to meet the standards required for professionals (eldevenir-neocoach.blogspot.com, March 10, 2014). But they cannot fully get the result that they want because of lack in the school facilities. The students need book in order to gain new knowledge and the primary source of information which gives a historical or present insight into the life of a reader.

...technology for their operations, controls and processes. This includes remote sensing, SCADA, HMI, micro controller sensors and PLC. They are used for automatic control of lights and switches, and for remotely controlled operation of equipment or machine. These modern technologies save time, costs, and labor. The researcher conceptualized this study about the modern technology using HMI in the school specifically the laboratory room. Laboratory should be conducive to learning so that students are encouraged to study. It is a room where the students have the basic knowledge in theoretical aspects before they ought to gain knowledge outside. So, the study is focus on the development of a modernized laboratory equipped with automatic controls. Before laboratory is just a room with equipment, many lights, and switches. They are using manual switching of the facilities inside a laboratory room which is done manually. The turning on and off the equipment gave waste time and energy. The conceptualization of a modern laboratory gave the students an edge in modern technology as well as application. The common problems encountered in a laboratory room are poor illumination and ventilation. In laboratories and classrooms effectively and efficiently required illumination level and proper...

...language teaching has become very important because of the global status of English and people all over the world are learning this language. English language programs worldwide have become increasingly aware of the needs for curriculum review due to both demographic and situational changes taking place. As students’ populations, societal views, and institutional factors are constantly changing, English language programs need to be implemented routinely to make the changes necessary to facilitate the desired outcome of the program. Determining the needs of students is seen as a direct way to inform the teachers of the possible goals and objectives necessary to create a teaching and learning environment suited to the needs of the students. According to Nunan, 1989, the effectiveness of a language program will be dictated as much by the attitudes and expectations of the learners by the specifications of the official curriculum. It is important to understand how students’ perceived language needs because this will give the language teachers the idea on what to teach to the learners. The needs of a learner represent the gap between what the learner wants to get out of the learning experience and his or her current state of knowledge, skill, and enthusiasm (Noessel, 2003). Each learner is unique, and brings to the learning situation his or her own different learning style, knowledge set, pool of past experiences, and motivation. In learner-centered instruction, it is important for...

...FOREWORD In a span of only five years, the population of the Philippines grew by 7.7 million – from 68.8 million in 1995 to 76.5 million in 2000. During this period, the population growth rate (PGR) was 2.36 percent per year, which means the population doubling time will be within 29 years if the rate does not decline (NSO, 2001). Side by side with rapid population growth is poverty, which still grips about a third of the country's 15.3 million households (NSO, 2001a). This Country Report is timely in that it revisits the link between population/development and poverty, environment, and resources. The Report has two purposes. First, it intends to review the Philippine population/development situation, including issues of reproductive health and gender equity, from the perspective of goals affirmed in the Bali Declaration, the ICPD Program of Action and other related documents. The report's second purpose is to highlight priority population issues in the context of alleviating poverty and improving the quality of life of Filipinos. To reduce poverty significantly within the coming decade, the Philippines must face the challenge of building the capacities of its vast human capital. Only in this way can Filipino families, especially the poor, meaningfully, responsibly, and productively participate in the development process. CONTENTS |FOREWORD ...
