11 - Media literacy


Media Literacy is a 21st century approach education. It provides a framework to access, analyze, evaluate, create and participate with messages in a variety of forms from printing to video of internet

Literacy is referred to the ability to read and write. Nowadays people are more on technology because now we are living in a technology world. Media Literacy uses television, radio, internet, newspaper, books, billboard, video games, music and other from of media. Some people discovered that media literacy is one way to learn easily and effectively. Media literacy engage ways to apply critical thinking skills to a wide range of issues.

Media literacy skills can help youth and adults:
-Develop critical thinking skills
-Understand how media messages shape our culture and society
-Recognize bias, spin, misinformation, and lies
-Being independent


But there are disadvantages of media literacy. Here are some:
-Being dependent
-Sometimes you don't know if the statement is truth or wrong
-Less use book materials (such as bible, encyclopedia, dictionary etc.)
-Illiterate in using libraries
-Being spoon-fed of informations 

10 - Plagiarism


According to wikipedia
Plagiarism is the "wrongful appropriation" and "stealing and publication" of another author's language, thoughts, ideas, or expressions and the representation of them as one's own original work. The idea remains problematic with unclear definitions and unclear rules.

For me plagiarism is an act of presenting another's work or your idea and may look it like your own idea. Plagiarism is an act of stealing of someone's works. Stealing is a crime and a crime is against the law. When you are caught stealing you will be penalized or will be in jail for a certain day/week/year. So I can say that you should stop and avoid plagiarism to avoid those incidence.

7 - SoM Week

Heeeeeeeeeeellooooooooo there ^_^

This is my last blog for Midterm :)
Enjoy :)

This is all about SoM week. This is the best part as for now in being a student and the best part of my college life.

The most memorable part of the SoM week is the Mr. and Ms. SoM pageant.

To tell you this. I'm one of the candidates of Mr. and Ms. SoM 2015
At first I was hesitant to join this pageant because I lack confidence and I have stage fright. But my classmates and the president of JPIA want me to join in the pageant because they told me that "You have potential", "You are handsome" and "We will support you" that is the time when I've decided to join the pageant. Then I told my parents about the news they told me that "Kaya mo yan. Gawin mo para makilala ka sa school nyo" and that is how I've made my final decision to join.

First the photo shoot of all the wears for the competition. Beauty shot, Casual Wear, Formal wear and Theme wear. At first I had a hard time to be a model because I had no experience on this kind of thing. This is my first time to join in a pageant and I don't know who am I competing with, who is my partner, who is the one that is putting make up on me and what is this all about.

But as the time goes by I 've get along with the contestants and the make up artist. We are comfortable in each other and as the time goes by we are getting close to each other.

This is us candidates for our theme wear










and this my theme wear costume.








Now my casual costume.








and in my casual wear I was awarded as best in Casual Wear.









This is us candidates in our formal wear









and after all those things there should be a winner. I was feeling nervous that time because it is the time to know you will be in the top 3 finalist. In that time the unexpected happened I was one of the Top 3 finalist. I was so shock that time and that time I didn't answer the question right. That's why I've been placed in 2nd runner up which isn't bad for a first timer. 2nd runner up, People's Choice award and Best in Casual Wear isn't bad for a first timer. That is the best part of my SoM week. Whoaaaaaaaaaa!

There are so much thing I've learned and overcome in joining this pageant. I've overcome my stage fright and boosting my confidence. For sure I will be known in our school after the pageant (hopefully).



After all those things the best award the we've got candidates is the gift of friendship. The friendship that we receive before and after the pageant. It is the greatest gift/award the we had in this competition.

Before to end my blog I just want to thank all the candidates for having a memorable day/week/hour/minute/seconds that we had, and to the people that supported me. My friends, block mates and family. Thank you for supporting me till the end. Thanks bbe :*
