We have our first activity. This is activity is called Believe it or Not. I have here
the following statement that shows the Filipino beliefs and convictions. Then, you
say agree or disagree, but let’s make it change. When you say agree, say
hooray. If you say disagree, then say hep hep.
you.
Whether you are agree or not, these statements are called beliefs. There’s
nothing right or wrong answer when it comes beliefs. Why? You will surely find it
later.
2. Presentation
We, Filipinos have different beliefs and convictions that effects on our
daily living.
Be with me class, to learn and understand further the Beliefs and
Convictions.
What is Belief?
- This is something an individual considers as the truth.
- It expresses view points, but it is not based on facts or other pieces of
evidence.
- For example, a person can believe in various things such as cultural or
personal faith, morality, or values.
I have here the short video to present about the Filipino beliefs.
Present the video about Filipino Superstitions and Beliefs I PGAG
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ROdPy4v74mw).
Another example, Aeta tribe have a belief and they believed that Apo/Bapa
Namalyari is their god of creation.
- A belief is also an opinion which is why it cannot serve as the basis for
a formal argument.
What is conviction?
- This is a firm belief on something that are individual is convinced of. To
be convinced you need to obtain all related information like:
o Statistical data – based on analysis of statistics;
o Observational data – based on what the person has observed or
perceived they observed.
o Casual data – based on what fact has caused a particular factual
result.
o Experiential data – based on what experience shows can
inferred from the facts.
Note: The difference between the belief and conviction; a belief changes with time and
experiences, meanwhile a conviction remains the same.

C. Application
Listen carefully to the short conversation. Identify the sentences that state
a belief/conviction and write the expressions used in your lecture notes.
1. Student A: Leya, do you think it is important to preserve local
languages and dialects especially your language which is Ayta Mag-
Indi?
Student B: Yes, I believe that we need to preserve our local language
because we need to maintain our ethnics’ cultural and historical
background.
2. Student A: Hmmm… I see. Can you give me ways on how you can
raise awareness in your community about the language preservation of
Ayta Mag-Indi?
Student B: In my opinion, one way to preserve our language is to
encourage the younger generations to speak the language as they
grow, so they will then teach their children the language as well.
3. Student A: But what will happen if the children who do speak your
language are relocated to another area where it is not spoken? Is there
a possibility of language endangerment or extinction?
Student B: I think so. As far as I am concern, when our language
dies, so does the link to our cultural and historical past. For me,
without the crucial connection to our linguistic and cultural history, the
Aytas might lose their sense of identity and belonging.
