Now, students use computer to encode their research papers,
whatever editing and revisions are needed, they only have to insert
and delete whatever is needed to be changed in the original paper.
No need to use erasers and carbon paper, each copy of the research
paper is original and clean from blemishes. You can highlight
important items in the paper by making a bold print or italicize or
use a particular font style.

What is the government doing to provide employment for the growing

population of unemployed Filipinos? Colleges and universities as well as
television network and newspaper companies sponsor job fairs. Through
these job fairs, young people are encouraged to apply for possible

the four skills in the language: they are proficient in listening, speaking, reading,
and writing. When a Filipino applies in a BPO, there are two kinds of jobs
available for him. The voice job where they work in the call centers, talking to
customers in the different parts of the world; the other job is the non-voice,
where most of the jobs are in front of the computers, reading and writing
communication of business transactions in the different parts of the world. The
qualified and skilled Filipinos have job opportunities.

cable connections that enable a learner to access information of
the different countries in the world with translation in English.
Most schools are equipped with computers with Internet
connections. In some schools, they have an extra room beside the
library which has computers for student’s research use.

Since most families have mobile phones, they do away with the
telephone landline except when they have Internet connection
