WHAT DO YOU THINK WILL BE THE PROPOSAL SO THAT THE PHILIPPINES CAN COPE UP WITH ITS NEIGHBORS ON IT EDUCATION?

The Philippine Government must give importance to the education of our children. They have to see first the status of the public schools here in the Philippines. But I guess, the government make themselves blind with the true status of our education. They have to provide additional budget and ask some help from more private institutions for new educational technologies and learning materials for the Filipino students. We must help each other in any way we can to upgrade the level of education here in the Philippines. The teachers also must extend their effort in providing new strategies in teaching for better and easier acceptance of the learners.

HOW DO PHILIPPINE SCHOOLS COMPARE WITH SCHOOLS IN PROGRESSIVE COUNTRIES IN THE ASIA PACIFIC REGION?

Some of the Philippine Schools, mostly private schools, are coping up with schools in progressive countries in the Asia Pacific because of the capacity to provide new technologies and enough materials for learning. Private schools can give their students new teaching aids for a better understanding. But PUBLIC SCHOOLS here in our country can't get into the level of private schools with regards to new teaching materials because of low budget allotted to them, so what more with the schools in progressive countries?. Public schools doesn't have the source to provide new educational technologies for the students. There are only few private institutions that gives importance and lend their little help to public schools by donating some books an the so called netbooks with limited applications. But not all public schools were benefited by these private institutions because there's a lot of public schools scattered here in the Philippines.
