Over the past several years different foreign languages, particularly the English

will be the one who can help the young Filipinos specifically the Grade 1 students to
learn more about the Filipino language, to minimize the Filipino language learning

SITUATION ANALYSIS
recorded and 500 dialects, Philippines has been listed as tenth in the World’s most
numbers of language. Filipinos are also considered as multilingual or can speak one or
more languages. However, in the past several generations different foreign languages are
mainly recognized and used. Based on Ricardo Nolasco’s “The Prospects of Multilingual
Eduardo R. Gullas from his explanatory to House Bill 4701, as a result of the bilingual
policy the learning of the English language suffered a setback. He cited two reasons for
this: one is what he refers to as language interference (i.e. “targeting the learning of two
languages [English and Filipino] is too much for the Filipino learners, especially in the
lower grades.” Two, is the use of Pilipino “which is actually Tagalog” as medium of
instruction as “having limited the exposure of the learner to English, and since exposure

English language is also being prioritized more than our own because of the
Philippines trying to be competitive globally. Based on the case study of Diane Deker
and Stephen Walter (Mother Tongue instruction in Lubuagan: A case study from the
Philippines Nov. 2011) Lilubuagen is being used in all domains except in the church.
Children growing up in Lubuagan speak Lilubuagen solely until they attend school and
begin learning the languages of education, Filipino and English. Those Lubuagens who
have completed their education are quite proud of their ability to speak English. Most
Lubuagens desire that their children learn English in order go out of the area to find
work. English is seen as providing the best access to a better life, while Filipino enables
communication with the prominent group but provides less opportunity for work and is
therefore seen as being less important. A language that is gradually unspoken will be
inadequate for us not only across the country because it has a great impact on our
language enrichment. Language is very important to us because it’s a key which our

study showed how bilinguals know fewer words of any semantic category in comparison
to people that speak fluently only one language – their vocabularies seemed to be
somewhat smaller than those of monolingual speakers. That's not the end of it – this
study found out that bilinguals suffer more from 'tip of the tongue' moments than
monolingual speakers.

ADVERTISING OBJECTIVES
The purpose of the ad campaign is to inform the target market that there is a
deficiency in learning of Filipino language and it’s a serious matter. A language that is
gradually unspoken will be inadequate for us not only across the country because it has a
great impact on our language enrichment. The ad campaign’s motive is also to persuade
the target market to take actions that will help increase the usage of Filipino language and
minimize the deficiency. The ad campaign can be a solution to remind the Filipinos that
the national language needs to be valued and protected because it is a key which our

CHAPTER IV
ADVERTISING STRATEGY
Many Filipinos are not aware that there is a deficiency in learning Filipino
language. Even though the English language was written in the constitution as a way of
communication and instruction, Filipinos should not forget their own language. The
deficiency will not be happened if the Filipinos are more educated and aware. The
researchers think that grade 1 teachers are capable to understand the issue, and chose
them as target market because they are professionals and open-minded. The
conceptualization behind this campaign was to relate to our target market and easily

The logo of WIKAPEDIA has a blue and red color on the letter “W” in “Wika” that
looks like a Philippine flag in vertical position, represents that it is Filipino language that
we are trying to advocate. The “pedia” is derived from an ancient Greek word “paideia”
which means “upbringing” and “paîs” which means “child”. In short, the meaning of
WIKAPEDIA is “to early train a child in learning Filipino Language” which is perfect for
grade 1 teachers.

local TV shows like 24-oras and Kapuso mo, Jessica Soho rather than foreign TV shows.

4.3.1 Objectives
The campaign intents to give awareness and minimize the deficiency in learning
Filipino language. By promoting it to grade 1 teachers, this will lead them to take actions
like speaking Filipino language more often to communicate and sharing the new
knowledge from what they learned to the campaign. The knowledge can be pass on
different generations and the learning deficiency will decrease. Soon, the deficiency will

To recognize the ad campaign and to improve the Filipino language from its
current situation the researchers create a series of 3 print ads, 2 promotional ads and 1
teaser ad to be posted only on newspaper. Fortunately, the chosen elementary school have
their own newspaper publication, this will be easy for us to promote the ad campaign and
to connect with the target market. Aside from print ads, 1 final poster will be launch and
posted around the school to give interest not only to grade 1 teachers but to all educators
inside the campus. We will also launch a 30 seconds TV ad from GMA Network in
primetime since our target market is also a tele viewer. The TV ad can be seen every after
work or every weekend while spending time with their families. A 30 seconds radio ad
will air from RADIO NATIN 106.3FM LAGUNA since the location of our target market

CHAPTER VI
CONCLUSION
Banlic Elementary School. However, the Grade 1 teachers struggle in teaching using the
Filipino language seeing clear effects of having more mistakes in the homework of the
students because they are not familiar to some Filipino words. With this, the Grade 1
teachers give way to the students by using some English words in teaching to make the
subject easier to understand but have increased the deficiency in learning the Filipino
language.
was conducted to all the Grade 1 teachers of Banlic Elementary School which produced
positive results. The Grade 1 teachers are becoming fully aware that exposing the
students with 2 languages will worsen the increase in Filipino language learning
deficiency and will create a huge impact to the Philippine culture. The teachers also
believed that learning the English language has more advantage and easier to learn and
understand but should not be prioritized. They also agreed that they are the right target to
start this campaign to influence and sharpen the Filipino language of the Grade 1 students

increase of the Filipino language learning deficiency by raising awareness that will make
