This quarter, I believe I have learnt from some of the past quarters' blunders that have prevented me from thriving. One thing that I did well, was using my time well in doing my modules. Also, I have found it to be very beneficial that I give myself a time to read the concept notes of the module, I reviewed them before I did the learning task or my homework. Regarding homework, I discovered that using the internet to look things up was quite helpful, especially when no other resources were accessible. ICT class is so interesting and attention grabbing to me. I enjoy ICT class but only when I can totally understand what we're doing and what's going on. So far, I've gained a great understanding about the lessons and skills that I never thought I'd have. I've improved a lot during this quarter, my writing skills and comprehension skills have improved. The topic for this quarter is Community-Based Research, this topic in this quarter was not new to me because we ...

  The COVID-19 pandemic is predicted to continue to wreak havoc on populations and economies around the world, causing massive morbidity and mortality. Government must speed up the development of safe and effective vaccines against COVID-19 as well as working with manufacturers to ensure fair and equitable allocation of the vaccines for all countries. This will necessitate adequate health-care system capability, as well as strategies to improve vaccine confidence and acceptance among those who administer it.  Many possible COVID-19 vaccines are being developed by scientists all over the world. At least seven separate vaccines across three platforms have been carried out in countries as of February 18, 2021. Vaccination is prioritized for vulnerable groups in all countries. Simultaneously, more than 200 additional vaccine candidates are being developed, with more than 60 of them in clinical trials. COVID-19 vaccines that have been given an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) ...

There is no doubt that war is an evil one. It is the greatest catastrophe that can befall human beings. There is no doubt that war is a terrible thing. It is the worst disaster that humanity has ever faced. Like the Fall of Bataan, it brings death and devastation, indiscriminate slaughter and butchery, disease and hunger, poverty and ruin in its wake. Thousands of prisoners died from malnutrition, exhaustion, and diseases before reaching the camp during the trek also known as the Bataan Death March. Despite their defeat, the captured soldiers remained strong and emerged as heroes as a result of the battle. The fall of Corregidor was hastened by the surrender of Bataan. However, if the Japanese had not taken this stance, they might have easily overwhelmed all of the US bases in the Pacific. Bataan forced them to slow down, allowing the allies precious time to prepare for subsequent conflicts including the Battle of the Coral Sea and the Battle of Midway. On February 8, 1945, America...

Every year, the Church gives us six weeks to reflect on our lives to see if our beliefs and goals are in line with God's desires for us. Lent serves as a second chance, or do over, to return to God with our whole heart. Lent is an excellent opportunity to reflect on what it means to be a Christian. It is also an opportunity to repent for our sins and misgivings, as well as intensify our prayer, fasting, almsgiving, religious practice, and accepting others as brothers and sisters in our religious sect. Most Catholics associate Lent with giving up everything they love, doing good, and refraining from consuming meat on Fridays. Some people consider it a waste and despise having to make the sacrifice. But Lent is a special occasion. Between Ash Wednesday and Easter, many Christians observe a 40-day period known as Lent. The Lenten Sundays celebrate significant events in Our Lord's life, such as his Transfiguration and Triumphal Entrance into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday, which starts...

W omen are progressing in the modern world. Women's social and economic status has risen to greater levels, and they are no longer limited within the four walls of their homes. Previously, women were only concerned with caring for the home and children. However, they are now working in fields to explore their inner talents as well as to become self-sufficient and to earn money for their family. They are one of the major factors of the nation's growth, they make huge impact to the world. To remind ourselves of the contributions of women to our culture and society over time International Women's Month is celebrated. The United Nations started celebrating International Women's Day on March 8 in 1975, during International Women's Year. Two years later, in December 1977, the United Nations General Assembly passed a resolution declaring a United Nations Day for Women's Rights and International Peace, to be celebrated by Member States on every day of the year in acco...

  As the third quarter comes to close, it’s an important time to reflect on the quarter and the year as a whole. This quarter I actually had some interest in what we are doing. I’ve gained a lot of knowledge in this quarter, knowledge that I can use in next quarter. The topic for this quarter was new to me and I have not learned much about HTML’s or I haven’t learned anything new from what I’ve already known. In the past two months, I have been able to learn how to describe and compare the two kinds of tags, how to define HTML, how to identify basic tags used in HTML, how to create an HTML file using the basic HTML tags, how to apply basic HTML Formatting Tags, how to apply text formatting and alignment attributes, and lastly learn how to apply the tags in HTML frames and tables. To be honest enjoyed this quarter’s topic.   It was easy but lots of works to do especially in typing and memorizing each HTML tags to be used. It was a little bit hard to understand our lesson but it...

Valentine’s Day is the day of giving joy and offering love to others. Oftentimes we tend to think that this holiday is just for romantic relationships, but that’s not completely true. This holiday gives us an opportunity to show our appreciation and admiration to our loved once. Showing love for others should never be expressed only on this holiday or one day out of a year. Everyone should know that it takes more than just one day to love a person. Love of all kind is beautiful and thus, needs to celebrate. It is very important to celebrate the day of love because it is day which teaches us how we should express our love, care and respect for anyone who is important in our life. It helps us to gain positive vibes and feel happy about our loved once. It shows us the importance of the joy or the happiness we feel when we are aroun...
