GEC 1 Understanding the Self (Module 3: Psychological Perspectives, Eastern and Western Thought)
- General Education subject
- CHED-based (for College level)
In this module, you will journey to the very heart of this course: Philosophy as a subject presents various philosophers offering multiple perspectives on just about any topic including the self. Philosophically, discussion of the self is a basic search for meaning and purpose in life. Determination, rationalization, and identification of the self-set the direction from which an individual travel to fulfill his or her purpose in life. The inability to define oneself leads to a lot of contradictions within the self later on; hence, it is one of the many imperatives in life to know oneself and to go on with the business of leading a life charted by oneself.

Anatomy is the study of the structure of the different cells, tissues, organs and systems. An understanding of the anatomy of birds, and the different body systems found in the bird, is useful when an understanding of how poultry work or function, is sought. Knowledge of bird anatomy (body parts) enables the poultry industry to maximize bird performance and maintain good welfare practices.
Birds, like other animals, consist of a number of body systems which operate independently or with each other to maintain the normal activity and functioning of the animal as a whole. Each of these body systems consists of organs, which are special structures that are adapted to carry out specific activities or functions. Each organ, in turn, consists of tissues which consist of the various types of cells that ultimately provide the means for the organs and systems to carry out their activities and functions.
All animals have a skeleton to allow them to stand up and to protect their internal organs and tissues. The avian skeletal system looks similar to those of their mammalian counterparts, but there are some important differences. Many of these differences relate to the bird’s need to be light enough to fly while still maintaining the needed body support. Some important differences between the skeletons of birds and mammals are:
1. Some of vertebral sections are fused together to provide the rigidity required for flight.
2. The sternum provides a large surface area for the strong attachment of the main flight muscles.
3. The size of the head has been reduced significantly when compared to other species. A large head would make flying more difficult.
4. The tail has been reduced to a very short section of fused bones called the pygostyle (sometimes referred to as the Parson’s nose or the Pope’s nose).
5. The ribs have been modified by the inclusion of the uncinate process which refers to overlying flaps projecting off the ribs connecting ribs to the ones beside them. This gives strength to the rib cage so that it will not collapse during flight.
6. The neck is quite long in most species to enable the bird to:
• Protect the delicate tissues of the brain from too much jarring when landing; the flexibility of the neck acts as a shock absorber
• Aid in the reaching of food located on the ground; the rigid body makes this simple activity more difficult without this modification
• Aid in the adjustment of the center of gravity needed when the bird changes from the upright position of walking or perching to the more horizontal position of flight
• Allow the bird to use its beak to obtain oil from the preen gland located on its tail; the bird uses the oil to preen its feathers The bones of birds are also lighter in weight than those of their mammalian counterparts.
Identify or name the skeletal parts as marked on the image below. Use the given table.
1. Incisive (Upper Beak) 2. Nasal 3. Lachrymal 4. Eye socket
5. Mandible (Lower Beak) 6. Vertebral Cranium

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

1. LECTURE 4:
THE SELF in WESTERN & EASTERN THOUGHTS
Besides a generalobservation of cultural/artistic/principal
differences showing the distinction between western & eastern
concepts of “self”,in this lesson we willalsolook at religious
beliefs and politicalphilosophies that greatly influenced the
mindset of each culture.
A lot of the theories wediscussed before are Western theories so
this time weshallfocus more on Eastern ideas.
Confucianism – can be seen as a code of ethicalconduct,of how
one should act according totheir relationship with other people.
Alsofocused in having a harmonious social life.
The identity and self-concept are interwoven with identity/status
of the community,sharing its prideand failures.
Chun-tzu – a man of v irtue/noblecharacter.Self-cultivation is
important but for him,his properly social relationships are also
crucial.
Confucianism promotes having a “subdued self”:the personal
needs are repressed for the good of many.
Some Quotations:
* “Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.”
* “The moreman meditates upon good thoughts,the better will be
his world at large.”
* “When anger rises, think of the consequences.”
* We have twolives and the second begins when we realize we
only have one.”
Taoism – liv ing in the way of Taoor the universe. Adopts a free-
flowing, relative,unitary,paradoxical view of almost everything.
Taoism rejects the hierarchy (order of command)and strictness
brought by Confucianism and prefers a simple lifestyle.
From this POV it is considered correct not tointerfere with the
spontaneity or alter it by any means, expressed by ‘wu wei’
(inaction as in abstention of any action opposing nature).BUT Wu
wei’ does not signify not acting at all,but rather not forcing things
on their way.
The self is not just an extension of the family/community,but it is
alsopart of the universe.
The ideal self is SELFLESSNESS,but NOTforgetting the self but
rather living a well-balanced life with society and nature,being
open and accepting change,forgetting prejudices and egocentric
ideas, and thinking about equality.
The ‘Three Jewels of Tao’ refer tothethree virtues of taoism:
1 ) compassion, kindness, love
2) moderation,simplicity, frugality
3 ) humility,modesty
Some Quotations:
* “Clay is shaped intoa bowl, but it is the empty space that makes
it useful.”
* “Sentiment changes – truth is eternal.”
* “The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.”
* “Nothing is softer and more flexible than water.Yet noone can
resist it.”
Buddhism – the self is an illusion, born out of ignorance,or
trying tohold/control things, or human-centered needs. Therefore
the self is a source of suffering.
It is our quest toforget about the self, forget the cravings of self,
break the attachments you have with theworld,soy ou may attain
Nirvana.
The Buddhist conc00ept of no-self (Anatta),( “non-self” or
“substanceless”) – in Buddhism, thedoctrine that thereis in
humans nopermanent, underlying substance that can be called
the soul.
THE 4 NOBLE TRUTHS OF BUDDHISM
1 . The Truth of Suffering – old age,sickness,death,failed
expectations.
2. The Truth of the Origin of Suffering – roots of ev il: Greed,
Ignorance,Hatred)
3. The Truth of the Cessation of Suffering – toend suffering,one
must be liberatedfrom attachment.
4. The Truth of the Path tothe cessation of Suffering – identifying
the way toright understanding; judgment; speech; action; effort;
concentration;etc
Some Quotations:
* With our thoughts,we make theworld,”
* “You willnot be punished for your anger, you willbe punished
by your anger.”
* “A painfultruth is always better than a hidden lie.”
* “Happy people buildtheir inner world.Unhappy people blame
their outer world.”
The self is NOT the focus of Eastern / Asian philosophies.They
always believethe self tobe part of a bigger context/narrative/
perspective.
In striving tobecomea better person,one does not createa self
abov e other people, RATHER, a self should be beneficialtohis
community as wellas in order and harmony with everything else.
*
If y ou would look at the Western perspective (our past
discussions),we alsoconsider the role of the environment/ society
in those topics but their purpose of relating it are different.They
always put the self forward as the primary/most important figure.
In Western thought,they consider the self as INDIVIDUALS in a
way that you are distinct from another person,etc.
In Eastern thought, you see theother person as part of
y ourself,as wellas what you create.Everyone is interconnected
with specificroles.
Westerners may seem tohaveloose association or even loyalty to
their groups.Competition is the name of the game andthey are
straightforward and forceful in their communication as wellas
decision-making.
Eastern or oriental persons look after thewelfare of their groups
and v alues cooperation. They would be more compromising and
not directly express their ideas.
In the case of the Filipinopeople, we both possess western and
eastern influences due tocolonization experience and other
complicated events in our nation’history.
There are alsov arious ethics among provinces and regions,etc. #
