2. Writer’s Notebook: philippine Revolution +
American Empire # 13
1. What do you think you know about the
Philippines’ “shift” between a Spanish colony
to being a colony of the USA? What figures,
events, texts can you name from that era?
2. If you don’t have knowledge about this
period in history, write about the impact this
lack has on you. How much responsiblity do
you carry for this lack of knowledge? How
much does the education system bear? Our
famlies?

4. Use information from the Mabalon excerpt to draft a timeline of
significant events marking the transition of the Spanish Colonial to
US Colonial periods. Include events outlined in Nadal’s text, too.

5. Questions to Consider for Chapter One One-Pager
1. Who is your intended audience? What predictions
or perceptions do you have about what your
audience needs, wants? How do you know?
2. How did your choice of audience shape or inform
you choices about what to include in the one-
pager?
3. How did you make decisions about which
concepts and ideas to include in your one-pager?
About the choice between words, images, icons?
About where you placed information (layout)?
