The said topic was born from the recent issue on Singapore Starbucks for kicking out a group of students who were table-hogging for a group study. The writer's position is that 'Starbucks is wrong for kicking out students even in the midst of table-hogging'. This paper gives strong pieces of evidence to back up the writer's said position.

Secondly, this paper discusses measuring the things that are of value to us-- such as money, Graduate degree (MA and/or PhD), social life, teaching schoolchildren abroad, teaching Filipino children in the Philippines, family, friends, and God. This paper also answers the question 'How exactly do you measure these things?'

Inunawa ang imahe o dalumat ng bayani sa kasalukuyan mula taong 1986, panahon ng pagkilala sa maraming bayani ng martial law, hanggang sa kasalukuyang taong 2012. Napili ang saklaw ng panahon bilang ang mga panahong ito ang pinaka-makabuhuluhan para sa pag-aaral habang siya ring pinakamalapit sa mga kalahok maging sa mananaliksik na nabibilang sa kasalukuyang henerasyon. Inunawa ang kaisipan ng mga kabataang Pilipino ukol sa kabayanihan bilang pagsisiyasat sa salitang bayani sa kasalukuyan. Kaugnay ng pagsisiyasat na ito sa dalumat ng bayani sa kasalukuyan ang mga implikasyon sa kasalukuyang henerasyon ng kabataang Pilipino at lipunang ginagalawan.
Nabuo ng mananaliksik ang pag-aaral ukol sa bayani/pagkabayani/kabayanihan dahil napagtanto ng mananaliksik na higit sa paggigiit ng iisang kahulugan ng naturang dalumat, mas mahalagang gawin muna ang pagmamapa sa isang dalumat na hindi hindi na napagtuunan pa ng pansin – hindi na nasundan at nasuri ang mga pagbabago. Mas makatutulong kung susuriin na muna ang iba-iba at nagbago-bagong kahulugan nito sa kasalukuyang panahon. Mas praktikal ang pagkilala at malalimang pagsusuri sa dalumat vis-à-vis lipunan bago ang paggiit ng nararapat na kahulugan at pamantayan sa likod ng kultural at politikal na dalumat. Bago ang mga pagtatalo ukol sa kung sino at hindi ang bayani, kailangan munang unawain ang ito bilang konsepto.
Tumutulay ang pag-aaral na ito sa dalawang mundo: sa larang ng Sikolohiyang Pilipino at Leksikograpiya. Ang mga pangunahing salitang gumagaya sa pag-aaral ay dalumat ng bayani at kabataan.
The issue that this paper seeks to tackle is what philosophers think to be the greatest moral cha... more The issue that this paper seeks to tackle is what philosophers think to be the greatest moral challenge of our time namely the flawed conception of morality itself. This paper draws out its arguments from the article titled “The Greatest Moral Challenge of Our Time? It’s How We Think about Morality Itself” published by Tim Dean on March 12, 2018. The central concepts that were presented in the said article, which what we will be talking about furthermore in this paper, are morality, dogmatism, diversity, tolerance, and social living. The central value that has been posed by the article is morality not as a black-and-white end to measure the acceptability of a deed, a person/groups of person but as “a set of rules that reduce harm and help us live together effectively”.
This paper poses the main argument that: (1) Morality should be geared towards mutual respect, tolerance and peace despite differences; (2) Divine-inspired moralities should not be taken out of the picture of morality, hence enrich the concept of morality and values; and (3) Christianity as a set of moral standard is a good example of a divine-inspired morality that is not dogmatic and hence gears towards respecting, being tolerant, and being peaceful towards others who does not share the same religion or moral standard -- a proof that divine-inspired moral standards are not all dogmatic and that divine-inspired set of moral standards can also be timely to cure the greatest moral challenge of our time which is dogmatism and lack of respect and unity among different beliefs and people.

Pinatutunayan ng Kasaysayan ang siklo at pagpapatuloy ng agawang materyal ng tao, lalo na ang agawan sa kapangyarihan ng naghahari at pinaghaharian. Sumakatwid, pinatutunayan ng Kasaysayan ang likas na kaayusan ng kaapihan sa mundo. Pinatutunayan ng nakaraan at ng kasalukuyan ang likas na kadiliman sa mundo-na siyang pilit na tinatakasan ng mas maraming inaapi't nasusugatan kaysa nang-aapi't nangingnabang sa naturang kadiliman. Sumakatwid, ang ugat ng di-matapos-tapos na digmaan sa Kasasaysayan ay ang pamamayani ng materyalismong siyang nagluluwal ng pang-aapi't kaapihan -na iginuguhit naman ng patuloy na pagpiglas ng tao sa kadiliman, ng patuloy niyang paghahanap sa liwanag at sa Katarungang pinaniniwalaan ng taong siyang nagtataglay ng liwanag na inaasam-asam. Ang katarungan-Justice o Hustisya sa dayuhang konsepto-ay tila nga isang ginintuang piyesa sa di mabuo-buong palaisipan ng Kasaysayan ng tao. Palaging hinahanap ng tao sa Kasaysayan ang Katarungan, isang tuwirang pahiwatig na hindi talaga materyal na bagay ang nais ng tao kung hindi liwanag. Pinatutunayan ito ng pagdalumat ng mga Griyegong pilosopo sa Justice o Hustisya sa sinaunang Gresya, na nagsisimula sa kani-kanilang mga diyos at diyosa, na nanganagahulugan ng paghahanap sa kabuluhan ng kaisipang ito. Pinatutunayan rin sa Bibliyana siyang uminog naman sa sinaunang pamayanan at kasaysayang Ebreo, Palestino, Ehipto, Griyego, at Latino-ang patuloy na paghahanap ng mga tao sa Hustisya o Katarungan. Halimbawa na lamang sa mga ito ang pagdaing ni Job sa Panginoon dahil sa kawalang hustisya, ang pagtatanggol ni David sa Israel sa mapangdigma't mapanlupig na mga Palestino, ang pagpapanatili ni Solomon sa kaayusan at katuwiran sa Israel, ang galit ni Isaiah sa kawalanghustisya sa Israel, ang paglaban ni Esther sa walang-awang pinunong si Haman, at pagkalaban ng mga disipulo ni Kristo sa mga walang-pusong pariseyo. Maging ang 'Panginoon ng Israel' ay makikitang 'nakatuon sa mga makatuwiran at mga mapang-api sa kalupaan', naninibugho sa kawalang-hustisya sa kalupaan, at handang disiplinahin ang kalupaan ng Israel sa pamamagitan ng hustisya. 1 Sa sinaunang pamayanang Pilipino naman, makikita sa 'trial by ordeal' na sistema 1 Pinakaakmang halimbawa dito ang libro ng Isaiah. ng paglilitis noon ang mataas at ganap (absolute) na pagtingin sa Hustiysang si Bathala at/o ang mga anito ang nagbibigay. Panginoon man ng Israel o ang Bathala ng mga Pilipino ay may namumhi sa kawalang-hustisya. Maging ang mga kilalang pilosopo/ teyorista / rebolusyonaryong sina Marx, Engel, Lacan, Foucault, at Mao ay may matinding pagkapoot sa kaapihan at kawalang-hustisya sa lipunan. Maging sila at ang kanilang mga nabuong ideya ukol sa pagkakapantay-pantay at rebolusyon ay nag-uugat sa kagustuhan ng hustisya o Katarungan. Katarungan-tila isa nga itong nawawalang piyesa sa malabo't madilim ng mundo lalo na ng Pilipinas. Mula duplo hanggang balagtasan ay makikita ang pagbubulay-bulay ng mga Pilipino sa Katuwiran, tanda ng pagkauhaw at paghahanap ng mga Pilipino sa Katarungan. 2 Mas maaaninag pa ang paghahanap ng mga Pilipino sa liwanag at Katuwiran sa mga akdang pampanitikan noong panahon ng Rebolusyong 1896 partikular na ang "Liwanag at Dilim" ni Emilio Jacinto. 3 Gayunpaman, ang paghahanap sa liwanag at Katuwiran ay hindi natapos sa Rebolusyong 1896. Mahihinuha ang patuloy na pagkauhaw ng mga Pilipino sa naturang liwanag at Katuwiran sa pagpapatuloy ng mga panitikang tumatalakay sa kaapihan. Lalo pang mapatutunayan ito ng pamamayani ng kaapihan sa lipunan hindi nga lamang sa panitikan kung hindi sa aktuwal na buhay. Kaya nga, ano'ng nangyari? Nasaan ang Katarungan? Ang Katarungang inaasam-asam ng tao mula pa noong sinaunang panahon nga kaya ang sisira sa kaayusan ng kadiliman sa lipunan, o palasak na nga ang dalumat na ito? Ngunit bago ang lahat, ano nga ba ang Katarungan? Katarungan Hinalaw sa salitang Sebuwanong 'Tarong' ang salitang Katarungan ay tumutukoy sa 1) pagkilos nang wasto o pagpapakabait, (2) pagtuwid o pag-ayos, at (3) pagiging matino 4 . Ang Katuwiran namang siya nang ginagamit sa ngayon at binigyang-pakahulugan bilang salita sa Wikang Filipino ay nangangahulugan na ng 'wastong pag-iral ng batas; at pagiral ng karapatdapat na pasiya'. Ang mga katumbas nito ay katuwiran, at hustisya o justice. 5 2 Hinalaw mula sa Rebyu ng Kaugnay na Literatura ng pag-aaral ni Dr. Galileo Zafra ,"Ang dalumat ng katuwiran mulang duplo hanggang balagtasan". 3 Zafra, 2000 4 Bas, 1972 5 Almario, 2001 na nagtatraydor sa bayan. Sila na ang kasabwat ng ibang mapang-aping lahi sa pang-aapi ng mga kalahing Pilipino. Parehong sistema pa rin ng kaapihan ang nangangalaga sa bansa. Marami pa rin ang naghihirap, nagnanakaw, nang-aapi, inaapi, at pinapatay sa bansa. Hungkag ang Kalayaan ng Pilipinas-nakagapos pa rin ito. Kaya nga't ayon kay Jose, hindi na politikal ang problema sa bansa -nasa dimensyong Para sa citation ng papel na ito: Ibarrientos, Ruth N.

With descriptive design as the main research design that was used by the researcher, this study serves only as an attempt to evaluate assumptions regarding mainstream school teachers’ knowledge and education towards SpEd and learners with special needs. It only aims to come up with an objective understanding of a phenomena or a concept based on actual data and conditions collected from the respondents, which are sources of primary data. Therefore, this research seeks only to reflect partially actual conditions, events or phenomena in the Philippine society -- like how mainstream school teachers (who comprises the majority of teacher population in the Philippines and who might represent the mainstream mindset of Filipino educators towards autism) might perceive the said condition -- and functions as a beginning analysis and attempt to evaluate the readiness of mainstream schools in the Philippines to accommodate children with special needs, as one of the key characteristics of a global classroom.

For the most part of the paper, the writer presented problems through reflection and careful analysis of points backed up with some research. This paper does not create concepts or offer solutions but only presents problems and inquiries to create reflections, realization and inferences that might not have been thought of at these times due to too much familiarization with the current questionable teaching practices and mindset in the country nowadays. To simplify it, the end goal of this paper is to open the reader's mind to issues concerning Philippine Education today and to offer the reader a point of view regarding the issues discussed.

Nabuo ng mananaliksik ang pag-aaral ukol sa bayani/pagkabayani/kabayanihan dahil napagtanto ng mananaliksik na higit sa paggigiit ng iisang kahulugan ng naturang dalumat, mas mahalagang gawin muna ang pagmamapa sa isang dalumat na hindi hindi na napagtuunan pa ng pansin – hindi na nasundan at nasuri ang mga pagbabago.
