A. GENERAL EDUCATION COURSES

Course Title Understanding the Self Credit Unit(s) 3


Course Code GE 6100 Lecture Unit(s) 3
Pre-requisite None Laboratory Unit(s) 0
Course Description
The course is intended to enable the process of exploration and thereby help students arrive at an
understanding of the concepts of personality, self and identity. The course covers topics on the
introduction of major theories of personality – its nature, development and dynamics as well as those
forces and factors that lead to the formation of a self and identity; and the provision of experiential
learning so as to ground these theories and perspectives in students’ concerns and issues relating to
their personal self and identity.
Self-discovery exercises and activities, reflection papers and personal journals will be used as the
focal point of lectures and class discussions, thereby providing the foundation and structure for all
course learnings. Other learning tools such as personality tests and measures will also be used.

Course Title Readings in Philippine History Credit Unit(s) 3


Course Code GE 6101 Lecture Unit(s) 3
Pre-requisite None Laboratory Unit(s) 0
Course Description
The course aims to expose students to different facets of Philippine history through the lens of
eyewitnesses. Rather than rely on secondary material such as textbooks, which is the usual approach
in teaching Philippine history, different types of primary sources will be used – written (qualitative and
quantitative), oral, visual, audio-visual, digital – covering various aspects of Philippine life (political,
economic, social, cultural). Students are expected to analyze the selected readings contextually and in
terms of content (stated and implied). The end goal is to enable students to understand and
appreciate our rich past by deriving insights from those who were actually present at the time of the
event.
Contextual analysis considers the following: (i) the historical context of the source (time and place it
was written and the situation at the time); (ii) the author’s background, intent (to the extent discernible),
and authority on the subject; and (iii) the source’s relevance and meaning today.
Content analysis, on the other hand, applies appropriate techniques depending on the type of source
(written, oral, visual). In the process students will be asked, for example, to identify the author’s main

argument or thesis, compare points of view, identify bias, and evaluate the author’s claims based on
the evidence presented or other available evidence at the time. The course will guide the student
through their reading and analysis of the texts and require them to write reaction essays of varied
length and present their ideas in other ways (debate format, powerpoint presentation, letter to the
author of the source, etc.). The instructor may arrange the readings chronologically or thematically,
and start with the present (more familiar) and go back to the earlier periods or vice-versa.

Course Title The Contemporary World Credit Unit(s) 3


Course Code GE 6102 Lecture Unit(s) 3
Pre-requisite None Laboratory Unit(s) 0
Course Description
The course aims to introduce students to the state of the world today and the new global order. The
phenomenon of globalization is examined from a variety of perspectives as well as its effects on
traditional cultures and communities, nations and political institutions, and local, national and regional
economies.
Students will be asked to identify the challenges posed by globalization and consider responses to
these challenges as demonstrated by experiences on the ground. For this purpose, students will
produce case studies of communities (in the Philippines and other countries) experiencing the impact
of globalization and their respective responses to issues that arise. There are global civil societies
engaged in advocacies relating to climate and environmental protection, for example, human
trafficking across borders, and the application of advances in science and technology to serve some of
the world’s poorest communities, and so on. There are, too, communities that have managed, in
varying degrees of success, to deal with the effects, good and bad, of globalization.
The course will focus on contemporary global conditions from a Filipino perspective primarily and also
as a member of the global community. Through a combination of readings, class discussions, writing
and group presentations, the students are expected to formulate an understanding of globalization that
is theoretically informed and rooted in the experiences of communities and nations.

dealing with various aspects of present day living, such as managing personal finances, making social
choices, appreciating geometric designs, understanding codes used in data transmission and security,
and dividing limited resources fairly. These aspects will provide opportunities for actually doing
mathematics in a broad range of exercises that bring out the various dimensions of mathematics as a
way of knowing and test the students’ understanding and capacity.

This course deals with the social change and technological change by digital means contexts that
shape and are shaped by them (CMO No.20, series of 2013). Information and Communication
Technology is not only essential building block of a society, but currently driving behind social
evolution. Digitalization comes with certain characteristics that can trigger political revolutions; create
unprecedented richness as well as new dimensions of poverty; redefine our understanding of
friendships, culture and entertainment; transform education, health care and business; and lead to
both visions of future scenarios of global democracy and informational dictatorship. While doing this, a
global perspective will be essential, as is the fact that not everybody has equal access to the digital
age. Digital technology is the most powerful and also the most tangible tool we currently have
available to exploit the ensuing opportunities for social change. This course tackles the big picture of
the digital age and we are not afraid of asking the big questions that arise from the incredibly complex
dynamic of ongoing digitalization.
