The document summarizes a research paper on media managers conducted by students at Cebu Normal University. It discusses interviewing a manager at GMA-7 Cebu, Mr. Aljean Abaquita, to understand his roles and experiences. Key findings include the importance of strong communication skills for broadcasters, dangers of news gathering, and needing passion and self-motivation to survive in the competitive media industry. The study provides insights into how media outlets are managed and qualities needed to be an effective long-term media practitioner and manager.
The document analyzes the socio-economic impact of whale shark watching tourism in Tan-awan, Oslob, Cebu, Philippines. It finds that the industry has brought significant economic benefits to the local economy through job opportunities and income from lodging, dining, transportation, and retail businesses that support tourism. A survey of locals found that most have attained higher educational levels than expected and have been able to find stable employment or own businesses related to whale shark watching. However, the growth of tourism also puts pressure on conservation of the whale sharks that draw visitors.
This document is an essay submitted by 10 students to their professor discussing different perspectives on lying. It begins by defining a lie and discussing reasons why people may lie, such as to spare feelings, disguise not knowing the truth, or conceal information out of fear. It then outlines several ethical perspectives on lying: Christian ethics considers lying a moral wrong according to the 10 Commandments; utilitarianism assesses lies based on their consequences; situation ethics says a lie may be morally right if told out of love; deontologists believe lying is always wrong due to moral rules; and prima facie duties say lying is wrong if it causes harm but may be permitted to prevent harm to others.
The document discusses several approaches to reconciling the existence of evil and suffering with the belief in an omnipotent, omniscient and benevolent God, known as the problem of evil or theodicy. It outlines the Euthyphro dilemma concerning whether things are morally good because God commands them or God commands things that are already good. It then examines responses such as God using evil for an overall plan or to improve free will, as well as arguments that God's nature cannot account for the existence of evil.
The document discusses the main branches of philosophy, including:
- Social philosophy, which studies human society and sociality.
- Ontology, which is the study of beings in general and principles of reality.
- Epistemology, which is the study of knowledge, including what can be known and how we can know it.
- Several other branches are also listed such as logic, moral philosophy, axiology, psychology, cosmology, and theodicy. Brief definitions or examples are provided for some branches.
Philosophy and science are deeply interconnected. History of science without philosophy is blind, and philosophy without history is empty. Science involves systematic knowledge gained through the scientific method, while philosophy studies the most general features of the world and how we think about it. The aims, methods, and theories of science have been influenced by philosophical movements and ideas over centuries.
Divine command theory is a meta-ethical theory which proposes that an action's status as morally good is equivalent to whether it is commanded by God. The theory asserts that what is moral is determined by what God commands, and that to be moral is to follow his commands.
During the Islamic Golden Age from the 9th to 12th centuries, Muslim philosophers flourished and advanced knowledge in fields like mathematics, medicine, and philosophy. Major figures included Al-Kindi, who introduced Greek philosophy to the Muslim world; Al-Farabi, who wrote on logic, politics, and Plato's ideal state; Avicenna, whose Canon of Medicine was a standard medical text and who distinguished the soul from the body; and Averroes, who argued philosophy and religion could be reconciled and was influential in Western secular thought.

This document discusses fundamental philosophical questions and the nature of philosophy. It begins by listing 14 fundamental questions, such as "What is truth?" and "How should we live?". It then defines philosophy as the love of wisdom and the rational analysis of concepts. The document outlines some key philosophers like Plato, Aristotle, Descartes, and Marx and their views on philosophy. It also lists some functions of philosophy like clarity of ideas, use of logic, and developing understanding.
This document discusses the evolution of philosophy from the late 19th century through the 20th century. It describes how 19th century philosophy shifted away from metaphysics and epistemology towards ideologies influenced by advances in science. Significant historical events of the late 19th century included the industrial revolution and rise of secularism. The theory of evolution profoundly impacted conceptions of humanity. The early 20th century saw the collapse of the old world order through world wars and economic crises. While these events transformed history, 20th century philosophy focused on reexamining the nature of human knowledge and understanding the human condition in a non-religious universe.
1. Contemporary philosophy refers to philosophical thinking from the late 19th century to the present dealing with existentialism, phenomenology, analytic philosophy, and continental philosophy.
2. Existentialism focuses on individual existence, freedom and choice, the question of meaning, and the absurdity and anxiety of human life.
3. Major existentialist philosophers discussed include Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, Sartre, and Heidegger, who all emphasized individual responsibility and the importance of how one chooses to live.
4. Nietzsche notably declared "God is dead" and argued this poses challenges around nihilism but also opportunities for individuals to create their own meaning
The document provides an overview of early Greek philosophy from the pre-Socratic period, beginning in the 6th century BCE. It discusses the Milesian school of thought founded by Thales, Anaximander, and Anaximenes, who sought the fundamental material principle of all things. Later philosophers discussed include Heraclitus, Pythagoras, Parmenides, Anaxagoras, Xenophanes, and Empedocles. The pre-Socratics explored questions around nature, change, and the fundamental elements or forces that govern the natural world.
This document outlines several major branches and traditions of philosophy. It discusses metaphysics, epistemology, and axiology as the three main branches of philosophy that explore the nature of reality, knowledge, and values respectively. Some of the major traditions covered include idealism, realism, neo-Thomism, pragmatism, and existentialism along with their key proponents and perspectives in each of the three branches. Analytic philosophy is also briefly discussed as seeking to clarify and define philosophical concepts and their relationship to science.
The document discusses several Hollywood fashion icons including Kate Moss going braless at a fashion event, Emma Watson promoting sustainable fashion, Miranda Kerr's health and beauty tips, Rihanna looking stunning in a photo shoot, Miley Cyrus rocking different looks at the VMAs, and Katy Perry attending an event in Paris. It also covers an interview with Francesca Fernandez, Miss UP-Cebu 2013, about her career as a model and experiences in fashion shows stemming from her pageant title.
This presentation was made for the subject "THE TEACHING PROFESSION". Philippines was the country assigned to us and we need to compare it with the other country's education system.

1. Bornales, Juffer Denn C. Fil. 3 Retorika TTh(7:30-9am)
BA-Communication II Ika- 19 ng Marso 2013
Kahit Hindi
Ako’y papasok sa klasing ‘di ko gusto,
Asignaturang Retorika, hindi pa handang matuto,
Akala ko’y paksang ito’y mahirap pakisamahan,
Mali ako, nakakuha nga maraming kaalaman.
Iba’t-ibang pagsubok ang aking naranasan,
Sapagkat pagiging tulog mantika’y ‘di maiwasan,
Umagang-umaga paman din ang asignaturang ito,
Nakisabay pa, gurong nagtambak ng maraming proyekto.
Kahit maraming gawain ang ‘di nagawa,
Sana nama’y butihin naming guro’y pakitaan ako ng awa,
Kahit papaano nama’y ginawa ko ang lahat,
Ngayo’y maraming bagay ang sa aking utak ay batak.
Ang tiwala sa sarili ko’y nabuo,
Sa pagharap sa klase, ‘di na litong-lito,
Mga mabulaklak na salita’y nadagdag sa bokabolaryo,
Sa mga kaalamang ito’y handa nang humarap sa buong mundo.
