  The second quarter introduced me in the world of HTML tags, transforming my initial understanding into a confident understanding of web page structure.  I progressed from simply recognizing tags to understand their  relationships and the importance of attribute usage.  The practical application of these tags strengthen my understanding, allowing me to build functional web pages.  I have learned how to use tags and when to use them.    While the learning , my biggest challenge were my tags are accurate and correct but whenever I open them to a web browser, there would be something wrong with it.  Identifying the source of errors within intricate HTML code proved frustrating at times, especially when dealing with difficult and many codes. Not knowing where the problem in your coding is very time consuming. Another hurdle was grasping the subtle differences between seemingly similar tags and their appropriate usage contexts. This required big atten...

  The Anti-Violence Against Women and Their Children Act of 2004 (RA 9262) is an instrument to fight against VAW in our country. However, other laws has also a significant role in addressing different problems of this difficult issue.  The RA 7877: The Anti-Sexual Harassment Act of 1995. This law tells a specific form of VAW that often goes unreported and unaddressed: sexual harassment.  RA 7877 defines sexual harassment as "any unwelcome sexual advance, request for sexual favor, or other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature" that creates a hostile or offensive environment. RA 7877 recognizes that sexual harassment can occur in various places, including the workplace, educational institutions, and public spaces. It goes beyond physical assault and acknowledges the psychological and emotional damage caused by unwanted sexual attention. The law has helped raise awareness about sexual harassment and empowered victims to find justice. It provides legal power for vict...

  Elpidio Quirino. The term brings to mind the Philippines during the reconstruction era after the war. But for me, studying his biography opened up for me more than an interesting historical event, it is a tale of fighting spirit and hard work, as well as gratitude that in some way or the other inspires us right now.  My exploration into the life of Quirino started off as uninterested. He is largely lost in the pages of history books given by colourful personalities, and is mentioned only as a side reference in the struggle for freedom for the Filipinos. But the deeper I went into the subject, the more I began to appreciate how completely inappropriate that assessment was. His is a tale worth telling not only for its relevance to history, but for its richness of humanity as well.   His early life, far from being privileged, was marked by a quiet determination. Born in Vigan, Ilocos Sur, in 1890, his family background, though modest, instilled in him a strong work ethic a...

Indigenous Peoples are the ones who are rich of invaluable knowledge, rich cultures, and sustainable practices that have shaped our world especially the nature.  Their contributions to agriculture, food security, and nation-building are often dosregarded, yet they are the one who is starting a significant action for the society.  A month-long celebration dedicated to the contributions is not a fake gesture, it's an important step towards acknowledging their significant role and ensuring their continued prosperity.   The celebration's focus on agriculture and the big contribution of these people.  They have a deep understanding of our environments, applying traditional farming techniques that are often more sustainable, better and resilient than the modern industrial methods.  Their knowledge about planting, and caring for the nature holds the key to addressing food insecurity in keeping the world.  By recognizing and supporting their actions, we can learn v...
