TITLE: The Philippines’ Beauty (START OF VTI)

Directions: The students will read an excerpt from a poem entitled

Philippines is a Blessed Nation, and an abstract of a research
study entitled Cultural and Economic Benefits of Festivals to
Community Residents of Batangas, Philippines.

Philippines is a Blessed Nation by Ramon Amancio Estanque

'Philippines is a country
Blessed with beauties of nature,
A country that has
Their own unique culture.

Though we may think Philippines

Is corrupted and poor,
But with all the problems it faced,
It was still able to endure.

Natural resources are also rich in this land,

With farmers who work hard, hand in hand.
They plow the field and harvest grains,
 For our sake, they work in pain.

Philippines has a very interesting history

It will certainly take time to uncover its
mystery
And when all of these we’ll be able to study,
We’ll now understand its secrets and beauty.

Cultural and Economic Benefits of Festivals to Community

Residents of Batangas, Philippines by Vanessa D. Gonzales

This study determined the cultural and economic benefits of

conducting festivals in the cities and municipalities of Batangas
Province, Philippines. A descriptive type of research was utilized
in the study. The respondents are the 250 local residents based in
ten cities and municipalities forming the top 10 Batangas
Festivals. Results showed that the community respondents
strongly agreed that festival helps in the preservation of local
culture and traditions. Those who belong to the high and average
class, have a more positive response compared to those in the
lower class.

Festivals can help recreate the image of the town to get on the
tourism map which helps the tourism industry of a specific area
like Batangas by extending the tourism season. Every
development that happens in the province gives them the
opportunity for life improvement. Festivals provide identity to the
people that nourish the Filipino culture and strengthen the
economic benefits through hard work and perseverance of the
Batanguenos to be known their festivals worldwide.

Literary Writing and Academic Writing by NOEL SEBASTIAN
CALISO on Prezi Next
● What is the difference between literary writing from
academic writing?

1. Literary Writing
 ● The language used in literary writing is creative and
imaginative. It also uses a lot of figures of speech and
literary techniques such as hyperboles, personification,
similes, and metaphors.
● In literary writing, the point of view is usually in first or
third-person POV.
● And its audience is the general population. It is suitable for
everyone
● Its sentence and paragraph structures are complex. It may
follow a certain length and rhythm, especially with poems.
● The purpose of literary writing is to entertain, amuse, and
appeal to our emotions.
● Its examples are novels, poems, short stories, and
dramas. In our country, we also have folktales, myths,
legends, and epics.

2. Academic writing
● Also known as technical writing. This type of literature is
usually used for non-fiction.
● The language used in this writing is direct, factual, and
straightforward. It is written in a clear and concise manner,
and with a formal tone.
● The point of view in academic writing is usually in the third
person or second person POV.
● Its audiences are typically those who are experts in that
specific field, or within a particular group of people
● Its sentence structure is usually simple and in an objective
tone
● The purpose of academic writing is to state factual
information about a certain topic, subject, or area of study.
● It appeals to the mind.
● Its examples are research articles, academic essays,
academic journals, reports, thesis, dissertations, and
annotated bibliographies.

3. Difference between Literary writing from Academic Writing

● The main difference between literary writing vs academic
writing is that Literary writing is used in fiction and creative
storytelling.
● Literary writing tells a story, is read for pleasure, and is
written in a more creative manner. Meanwhile, academic
writing aims to inform, is written clearly and concisely, and
assumes a formal tone.
● Literary writing appeals to emotion. Academic writing
appeals to the minds
