BATCH 2021


FOREWORD

Sir Ace Malatag

Have you ever imagined what the journey has been for students who started taking

Humanities and Social Sciences (HUMSS) in Senior High School only to be derailed by the

COVID-19 Pandemic? This photo book gives us a snapshot into their experience and the

key ideas, concepts and principles that they have picked up along the way. They started

their journey in a classroom in the Braga Building, they were able to go on two exposure

trips before the pandemic started. The first for their Introduction to World Religions and

Belief System subject as they visited various temples and religious sites in Metro Manila.

The second exposure trip was attending a social science summit just a few days before the

country went into quarantine. With the quarantine being extended all throughout their

Senior Year, they were forced to continue their journey not in one of the classrooms in the

Braga building but through the google classroom.

They continued to sail, through the harsh seas and wind that they faced, they are now

about to reach their destination. As they go down from their ship they bring with them

precious cargo from their voyage. The knowledge, experience, and memories that they

were able to collect are now part of their treasure. We now have the opportunity to see

what riches they were able to gather. They offer to us photos, art, and lines that they have

captured along the way. Let us appreciate and analyze what is present in this photo book

as it may offer us new perspectives and understandings. There different specialized

subjects and teachers have guided them in their journey as they gather a wealth of knowledge

in the humanities and social sciences. Their voyage had many stops along the way.

With this they have gathered from riches also from their core and applied subjects that

have helped them along their journey.

As they disembark on their HUMSS ship they will now prepare to embark on another journey,

one that is more perilous and uncertain than their previous voyage. As they set sail to

reach new horizons, may this photo book always remind them of where they came from,

what they have accomplished, and what more they can still achieve. May you reach your

destination with all of these in your heart, mind, and soul knowing that there are still

greater things ahead.

Introduction to World Religions and Belief Systems


UNDERWAY FOR PEACE

D HARMONY TOWARDS

OTHER RELIGIONS

As Bosconians of Don Bosco Technical Institute - Makati and students of the Humanities and Social Sciences

Track, we promote mutual understanding and peace among believers of different religions. We are

called to understand and appreciate the uniqueness of each other's faith.

Don Bosco Technical Institute - Makati as a Catholic institution believes in the importance of Ecumenism

and Interfaith Dialogue. With our Catholic Faith and the knowledge of that with the World Religions and

Belief Systems, we strive to develop closer relationships and better understanding with other religions. This

goal can be achieved through humility, openness, and proper education, the result of which is cooperation

and harmony among religions.

We follow Christ’s mission of peace and harmony among the religions as this is our mission as Catholics

and Bosconians of Humanities. To know, to understand and to be enlightened by other faiths is the first step

to the commitment to ecumenism. Jesus has taught us, at the hour of his Passion, 'that they may all be one'

(Jn 17:21).

Mr. Villas and the Imam, went to the Quiapo Muslim Town to observe and to

learn from the marginalized muslims in Quiapo. “Mission Stairs” symbolizes the

and Indigenous Peoples and as

Catholics and young Bosconians,

what better way to understand and

promote Ecumenism and Interfaith

Dialogue is through going out of the

classroom and exploring and understanding

the different religions and

belief systems of the world.

This is why 17 Humanities and Social

Sciences students started their

exposure trip for their specialized

subject in Introduction to World

Religion and Belief Systems in the

Masjid Al-Dahab (Golden Mosque)

in Quiapo, Manila. They are accompanied

by Mr. Asuncion, Mr. Villas

PANAHON

March 7, 2020, we attended the TIPON: Social Science Summit at UP Diliman with the HUMSS

class together with our advisers. On that day we learned a lot, especially the deep meaning of

Social Sciences and also the speakers stated why social science is important. The speakers

who are experts in their field in social sciences were kind enough to share their knowledge in

their fields. We were also called to participate in activities where we got to meet and think

with HUMSS students from different schools. After the summit, we gathered outside to take a

9

group picture because it can serve as a remembrance.

The TIPON summit was packed with many knowledge about social sciences and we got to

hear from the speakers in their respective fields explain why social sciences are important.

Political topics were part of the discussion such as the Human rights, RH Bill, Sogie Bill, etc. and

how it affects the people and the administration were discussed. We were asked what our

thoughts were regarding the topics. We also had the chance to meet HUMSS students from

different schools and backgrounds in that summit. This photo was taken while our class

representatives took part and participated in an activity by the facilitators during the TIPON

The timeline of the Philippines’s

political periods was one of our

works to be submitted in our PPG

the different themes and

events that continued through the

periods and it certainly made us

realize the pattern in which the

Philippine society and its political

climate has gone and is continually

going through.

Simple people with their own duty to serve the masses, integrating the social sciences to alleviate

what pains and ails our current society. Simple looking careers, yet in truth, it is noble and daring

to affiliate with aspects such social justice, self efficacy and autonomy, and spreading information

to the people. This section is set to show these careers from our works, that came from appreciation

and understanding towards these as callings to serve. The works which display different

parts of the careers, practicality in action and the values that are essential to people and self.

by us HUMSS students about mental

health is relatively timely until now. It

constantly reminds people to check up

on everyone, even on your friends.

Through this infomercial, it aims to

inform people about this important

issue that is still seen in our society

today.

The class was assigned to

create a two-page project

proposal that explains our

plans through the stages

of social work. Project:

BAON (Bakwit-Aralan

Ahon) is a project proposal

made by Group 3 whose members

are Mr. De Lemos, Ms. De Los

Santos, Mr. Carbon, Mr. Blandura, and Ms. Mendoza. Project BAON is about the

alarming current situation of the lumad students. It aims to support the members

of the Lumad community who fled from their village to continue their education,

specifically, the Lumad students and other members such as volunteer teachers,

volunteer workers, concerned with the continuation of the bakwit schools which

for them, is one of the most important tools in order to protect and to continue

their fight in protecting their land and community.

Disciplines and Ideas in the Social Sciences


Our section is focused on works using approaches aligned with

Jurgen Habermas’ emancipatory domain of human interest. These

are namely marxism and feminism. This section highlights how we

could use marxism and the idea of class conflict to fight back

against the oppressive nature of capitalism, and how we could use

feminism to address sexism and fight back against patriarchal

hegemony.

26


To introduce us to our final Performance Task in the subject Trends, Networks

and Critical Thinking, we were tasked to create a moodboard in regards to

our chosen trend. This moodboard was created by one of our classmates,

Ricardo De Lemos. The specific trend he chose was fashion, showcasing how

it evolved through the years and how it proves that clothing has no gender.

27


Even in the new normal, we persist. The

group presentations for the subject show

the teamwork and enthusiasm students have

for learning even amidst the pandemic. In a

spread of 4-5 weeks, each group presented the topics

around Trends, Networks and Critical Thinking. The different groups

assigned presented their topics through creative ways, for example: through

a format of a vlog or a documentary. This gave us a chance to explore and

strengthen our creativity and skills in technology.

28


In line with our first task in the subject Trends, Networks and Critical Thinking, our

final Performance Task was regarding a trend of our choice. Students were given

time to research and prepare on their chosen trend, creating either a storyboard

or a moodboard as a basis for this Performance Task. We each presented our

insights and predictions of different trends in society through visual aids.

THE IMAGINATION

BETWEEN

THE

DEVIL AND THE

DEEP BLUE SEA

31

MALIKHAING PAGSULAT:


As creative writers we are often at a state of vulnerability when writing,

often bordering on exposing ourselves in matters sensitive to us.

Thus, the nautical term ‘Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea’ is

used by sailors when referring to a spot of the ship they need to plug

and maintain water tight which would require the sailor to stand over

the edge or sometimes be suspended on the side. This theme focuses

on the state of us writers as we express ourselves, the hesitation that

lies before we dive into our deepest thoughts and emotions.

32


Speaking of the devil between the Devil and the deep blue sea, this was our gift to sir

Jaymart as a sign of our appreciation for his work. He taught us to be vulnerable in

writing and how it should reflect our purpose and our outlooks and sometimes our

being as a whole which made us really vulnerable to mistakes which would be our

room for growth in the subject.

33

at dun ko nakuha ang inspirasyon sa paggawa sa mga sumunod na mga piyesa

sa Malikhaing Pagsulat.

34


SA IMAHINASYON NG LAHAT

Despite the pandemic, we, writers, persevered. As we were taught the mechanics

of a short story, our ideas for new and exciting stories flourished through our

fingers and into the keyboards. It didn’t matter then in the start of the pandemic,

and it didn’t matter now. What truly mattered, was that we were able to show and

hone our talents as the new breed of writers through the workshops Sir Jaymart

set up for us. Through those workshops, we came in as amateurs, but came out as

journeymen, excited for our road to being masters of our craft.

To be a creative one must be

beliefs on the nature of many

things. That is for us to tap into

the world unknown that reflects

the society we know. We have

done just that where we show a

piece of our life that preceeds

the actual experience to the

sublime life; that reveals the

senses that intensify the feeling.

It is a sense of sonder; that

revels to worship the complex

part of the lives of others. This

is creative nonfiction in action

that embodies the moments

that show underlying meaning

to life of us humans.

organized an event about

in paticular relates to the

subject, publishing books and

dialects. One could remeber the

experience as being nostalgic.

This is where we see that we are

so priviledged with so many

things that were given to us, the

gift of writing and the gift of

reading. At some point we also

took advantage of being able to

go outside. But, nonetheless we

where able to bide and enjoy

our time taking pictures of our

experience.

WHAT WAS YOUR MOST MEMORABLE EXPEREINCE IN HUMSS?

The most memorable

experience would be getting a chance to go on a exposure trip to

meet different people to explore World Religions and to go to the

TIPON Summit held last year before the lockdowns were imposed, it

was an opportunity that only happened twice which made it more

special. The exchange of ideas during our face to face HUMSS subjects

classes up to the last day of our

face classes was truly memorable.

face to

My most memorable

experience as a HUMSS student would be when every class for a

day was free period. Not a single teacher showed up except ma'am

Charo for one subject. That was when we actually bonded as HUMSS and

there were just good vibes all around

My memorable

moment was when we went

to the Muslim community where I

think was at Quiapo, and also we

went to the Sikh temple. It was

memorable to me because it was the

first exposure trip that we experienced

together as a class.

My most

memorable experience

as a HUMSS student is

when we as a class went to Quiapo as part of the

World Religions exposure trip. This trip made me realize

that we Catholics also have brothers and sisters in

other faiths. This trip helped me to see the beauty of

other religions while still practicing my own faith.

F r o m

our Exposure Trips to Quiapo and UP,

up to our games and banters in the classroom,

every day and every moment that I

had spent my time as a HUMSS Student

was memorable. It may have been cut

short by the COVID-19 Pandemic, but my

experience by far was memorable and

surely I will treasure this forever in my

heart.

We

volunteered for the PWD Christmas Party event in

2019. It was my first time to encounter people with

special needs and it was a unique experience for

me to be with them. They are welcoming and

indeed special people who deserve more appreciation

and love.

WHAT ARE THE LESSONS YOU HAVE LEARNED AS A HUMSS STUDENT?

Teamwork and

family, I learned that people

have also their capabilities to

help other people. I should let myself

be helped by the people I trust

most.

By becoming

a HUMSS student,

I learned that I discovered things about myself that I did not

expect that I can do before. It helped me build my confidence

and to know and work on my strengths and weaknesses which

is essential to help me to be better. I learned that when there is

an opportunity to learn or to participate, grab the

op-

portunity.

The world is

not exactly black and white and this is

why Humanities helps us to see the grey

in the world. We become more human by

having an open mind. Having this kind

of mindset can help humanity as a

whole to become more humane.

Belief Systems and Trends, Networks, as well as

Critical Thinking in the 21st Century Culture. Everyone is

inherently unique in their own ways. Understanding and

embracing it is one step closer towards achieving harmonic

coexistence with one another.

T h e

lesson that I learned

as a HUMSS student is that the

Humanities and Social Sciences helps

us understand how the world works

with perspectives that are there to

guide

us.

One of the

biggest lesson as

a HUMSS student is to be able to communicate, to

be able to convey your ideas as much as possible, as

long as it is related to the class. Without anyone

expressing themselves there would no be development

with the discussion of the class.

The lesson I

have learned is how

to proper debate, text book reading, speeches I

had to memorize, and performance practices. All of

these have taught me some of the most important

lessons in life.
