Art Appreciation

Authors: Wilson K. Panisan, Leslie B. Gazzingan, and Warto M. Torrevillas

Because Art Appreciation is one of the required general education subjects in he revised General Education Curriculum (GEC) come 2016, we decided to come up with a textbook that would comply with the general education course, This subject would focus on art as art which is primarily aesthetics. Students in Art Appreciation vain be taught how to view a work of art, what to look for and how to tell if an art work is good or bad. While aesthetics is evidently important because art, after all, is primarily aesthetic, the new subject will focus on the reationship of art to the individual student and his/her surroundings_ The course then aims to provide students the opportunity to examine, experience, and even produce works of art in order to appreciate their role and purpose in life.

Students will be exposed to various categories of art such as visual arts (from the classical art forms to the modern art installations), the performing arts (music and dance, particularly Modern and Contemporary Ballet), drama and film (from mainstream to indie films), enhanced e-books, and multi-media aesthetics. This subject will thus build upon and hone the skills of urderstanding, critical appreciations and expressions of one's views. At the end of the semester, students should be able to understand and approach a work of art from a perspective informed by history and tradition and the social environment in which the art work is created. Like the other General Education Subjects, this subject is multi-disciplinary wherein students must use tools from various disciplines other than aesthetics to come to terms with the way art influences their personal lives.

At the end of each chapter, various creative exercises and activities wit be answered by students to measure their cognitive learning aside from the reaction and critique papers they will submit after watching a ballet presentation, a musical concert, an indie film, or an actual painting demonstration. Research and data collection skills will also be enhanced thru library work and Internet research. individual and group activities will be assigned in class in order to improve communication and teamwork skills thru sharing and group activities. We believe that in this age of information technology, students should be trained and tapped to integrate and utilize machinery and computer software ire creating beautiful artistic works of art.

it is our hope that the textbook will guide the students to develop appreciation and appraisal of the various arts forms and he range of the works of art the students

be taught and exposed to. We hope that at the end of each chapter in this textbook, the students would be able to employ the communicating nature of the various media of arts as a catalyst or tool in understanding themselves as individuals and the society in which they live.

  • Food Safety and Sanitation

    Authors: Mary Jean C. Ang,  Hannah A. Balanon,  Celia E. Cariño,  Eunice D. Guerero,  Marilou P. Pascual,  Ma. Cecilia P. Pradez

    Laboratory Manual for Principles of Food Safety and Sanitation with HACCP is a set of exercises to facilitate and enhance learning of the fundamental concepts of food safety, sanitation and hygiene and HACCP standards.

    This laboratory manual is specifically designed for students in the food service and hospitality management courses, allowing them to apply and correlate many of the food safety concepts with various activities.

    Organization of this manual is of two parts: Part I contains exercises for food safety and sanitation such as procedures for the identification of biological, chemical and physical hazards of food and Part II contains exercises applying the principles of Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP).

    Each exercise comes with a Title – an overview of the content; Principles – bases of the underlying concepts and procedures; Objectives — competencies that every student should gain after each exercise; Materials — list of instruments, equipment supplies and reagents that will be used for each exercise; and Assessment — questions to evaluate learning.

    The sequence of exercises is arranged in a way that will demonstrate the progression of the student from learning and mastering simple to complex procedures of food safety and sanitation with HACCP.

    Considering these parameters, the purpose of this laboratory manual is to guide students through a process of development of experimentation, interpretation of data, and discovery in a manner that will complement the lecture and make the study of food safety and sanitation with HACCP both exciting and challenging.

    Each chapter begins with a list of objectives that gives the students a bird's eye view of what to expect from each chapter.

    The lessons then go on with a brief background of each chapter followed by a comprehensive discussion of lessons that are arranged from the most fundamental to the most challenging tasks like execution, preparation of dishes, cooking and even table-setting.

    The lessons are graphically designed through the inclusion of pictures that are personally photographed by the authors to ensure better understanding among learners.

    Each chapter contains exercises that intend to measure students' understanding of the lessons. There are also exercises that evaluate the practical skills of the students. A specific rubric system is provided for better organization and measurement of the intended skills.

    To ease comprehension of the recipes included in the book, a glossary of terms is provided with phonetic translations as well.

    The recipes that are included in the book have been tested and specially designed for TESDA courses on BSHRM and HRS culinary arts subjects. Each recipe indexed at the end of the book to give easy access to those who would like to try it.

    If you want to land a good career in the food industry, this book is a must for you.

  • Philippine History (UM)

    Authors: Deanna Febra Gillera Cantal,  Roen Caesar S. Cardinal,  Lindsey C. Espino,  Maribeth Quezon Galindo

    Many students may think that its irrelevant to study Philippine history subject since they could not change the past nor they have not seen the relevance

    subject itself and its relation to the course that they take up. Others may think that a boring subject full of memorization with dates, places, persons, events and others. Thus, this kind of perception may be placed in the context of students experiences on how they think, they look and they feel about the subject.

    A glimpse that Philippines was controlled by foreign colonizers for almost 400 years that during colonization period Filipinos were not taught their own history but rather they were taught the history of colonizers WHILE they were in our country and seemingly, Filipinos were trained like a parrot which resulted students less understanding and less appreciation of our own history.

    Hopefully, as students explore the history of the Philippines, they may see the fact that as a true blooded Filipinos, the fact that every generation was and will always be a product of History, Philippine history is still and will always be a relevant subject :1 regardless of what course a student takes up. Students may realize whatever mistakes 1 in the past are, the present generation may not repeat it and the future generation will be freed from the bondage of ignorance, tyranny and slavery. Students may develop a deep sense of commitment to serve God and love our country.

    Likewise, this textbook, may challenge new breed of historians and history teachers to go beyond dates, places, persons, events etc. Teaching the how's and why's of historical events will train students to be analytical and critical minded individual. Further, teachers may have seen the importance of contextualization so that students may have developed a deeper understanding of their origins, interpret historical events in a broader perspective and develop in them to be actively involved in non-violent; manner to any issues which have affected Filipino lives.
