Unfolding the academic endeavor of first year students in speaking English language
No full textSpeaking is a useful language ability that allows speakers and listeners to engage in oral communication to transfer and share information and develop long- term relationships. English is one of those languages that have a global demand for learners from varied L1 origins at all levels of communication. However, ESL students' developing speaking skills are always regarded as complex and challenging, requiring a great deal of effort to maintain.
Speaking is the active use of language to convey meaning, and for young language learners, speaking is the primary way that new languages are encountered, comprehended, used, and learned. The spoken form serves as the primary means of language acquisition in the classroom for young learners rather than being just one part of language acquisition. Speaking issues, however, can pose significant obstacles to effective foreign language learning and communication. No matter how much they know about the English language, English as foreign language (EFL) learners still struggle with speaking. Numerous studies have shown that oral language development has been largely neglected in the classroom, and most of the time, oral language in the classroom is used more by teachers than by students. However, even when used by the teacher, oral language rarely serves as a platform for pupils to learn new information and explore concepts

Walang sa'yo Nicole : a look at feminism in female TV lead roles
No full textIn Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Arts in CommunicationFeminism is the social, economic, and political belief that all genders and sexes deserve equal treatment. In Philippine TV, the cases of how feminism is represented in a different light is an issue that needs to be scrutinized nowadays. The main objective of this study is to investigate how false feminist representations on Philippine TV radically affected how the public perceived the true essence of feminism. Moreover, through creative works, the researchers produced a documentary film. The proponents investigated why this is prevalent in the industry and if these representations influence the viewer's perception. The study encompassed the residents of Davao City. To further understand this research, the researchers gathered information from different sources from local media practitioners, filmmakers, and feminism advocates, all from other gender sectors, to ensure that there is no gender bias. This explains the factors that cause these representations to be relevant in today's teleseryes. In addition, the implication of this creative research highlights one of the most prevalent societal issues that must be addressed, particularly in the Media, which affects gender equality and societal norms. Upon thorough investigation and insights gathered from related literature and conducting interviews, the researchers discovered several reasons why these false feminist portrayals continue to thrive. One factor is people's general fascination with pop culture and media references, in which these tropes are used as examples. Another factor preventing these stories from being produced is a need for more options on free television. This relates to another factor that contributes to the airing of these shows, which is the ratings of these teleseryes. Companies that create this content assume that this is what the audience wants, but there are few options for the viewers

No full textIn Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science in Environmental ScienceUrbanization is a large-scale population shift from rural to urban areas and the ensuing physical changes to urban areas. The condition of land use and land cover of an area reflects the socioeconomic and natural resources present and how they are utilized over time and space. A significant effect is the extent and types of land use and land cover disturbances such as the conversion of grasslands to urban areas, wetlands to agriculture, orchards from cropland and agricultural land, and forestland have been replaced with residential land use. Davao City is currently rapidly urbanizing, and several changes to the watersheds land cover are possible. This research was carried out to analyze the degree of Built-Up expansion based on the land cover change in the Talomo-Lipadas watershed from 2010 – 2020 using Geographic Information System (GIS). The results show that the spatiotemporal change of the Talomo-Lipadas land cover from the years 2010, 2015, and 2020 is noticeable based on each land cover area and percent change in where urban land from 7.29% to 10.91% or 28.53 km2 to 43 km2, forest from 12.1% to 17.76% or 47.36 km2 to 70 km2, barren land from 0-0.25% or 0 to 1 km2, and water from 0.35% % to 0.76% or 1.39 km2 to 3 km2 exhibit an increase in terms of area and percent change while cropland from 76.48% to 67.28% or 299.15 km2 to 269 km2 and grassland from 3.33% to 2.03% or 13.03 km2 to 8 km2 show a decrease.
