REFLECTION

(National Service Training Program)

Some of the students embarking NSTP first impression including me see’s the NSTP as
an extra baggage in our curriculum for which we students is required by law upon the approval
of Republic Act 9163, otherwise known as the NSTP Law of 2001. As such, all incoming
freshmen are required to take up NSTP as a requirement for graduation in the course that we
have enrolled in. Where we are given the option to select one from among the three NSTP
components that they feel would help them build their personality and enhance their sense of
patriotism as required in the NSTP course.

NSTP is important in our curriculum because of the NSTP, I learn so many thing about
the duty of government and the role of the youth in the nation – building. Being a youth , I
learned how to be motivated, trained and organize and develop my physical, moral , and spiritual
intellectual and also my social well-being. I want to contribute in our general welfer to enhance
and preferred the youth to develop the physical moral and spiritual to give a better life for
community and to help to improve the facilities like for health, education , environment ,
recreation and the moral of the citizenry in our community , and when I was read the hand-out in
NSTP . I learn more knowledge about the rules and regulations to serve in the community and
the law of NSTP. It is so very important because we know the guiding principle, the role of the
youth, the used of implementing rules and regulations, the organization of NSTP it helps to the
students like me taking NSTP to know what is our need to follow the regulation of the NSTP to
serve in the community and in the government. It help to train the students to teach literacy and
improve the skills in general welfare to school children, out of school youth and other segments
of society which are considerably in need of their services

One important thing we should always keep in mind is fieldwork ethics. Let us bear in
mind that while getting information we must earn the trust of our sources. We are not in our own
territory, therefore, we must know how to act the right way. As students, we can learn from
CWTS , ROTC, etc, what simple things we can do by starting out with the community. It is also
good to be exposed in a different environment to learn how other people live their lives .
 Therefore, NSTP program is important to the students because it gives benefit such as;
ability to communicate, NSTP help the students to improve their social capability and also this
program teach and train the students regarding civic or military leaders. It means that student is
the one who can call upon by the nation in case of service needed. NSTP also train and teach the
students to acquire different principles that will help them to the development of their lives and
also the development of the community. In short NSTP have benefit to the students as well as to
the community.
