Dear SW 121 Students:
1. For our sharing on November 30, please be ready to submit and read your summary. Bring bond paper, masking tape and permanent markers. To facilitate faster discussion of the concepts, you will have to post the important concepts of your thinker on the board.
2. We will use you initial reading list to define the community and provide an initial structure of the community. Later, we will also discuss the various symbolic conception of the community. Since the book on Ross is with Kath, she is in charge to share with the class concepts found in the book, possibly provide some notes on the reading (Of course, with additional credit).
3. To synthesize our discussion, hopefully on the same day, please read the following:
a. Schriver, Joe,M. 1995. Human Behavior and the Social Environment. Mass.: Allyn and Bacon. Chapter 9: Pp. 447-491.
Concepts found in the book may need to be memorized and may be the content of our first examination (maybe the meeting before Christmas break)
4. For December 7 (or Devember 14, depending on the length of our sharing session), please read the following:
a. Landa Jocano, Felipe. (2001). Filipino Worldview: Ethnography of Local Knowledge. Manila:Punlad Research House, Inc.
b. Landa Jocano,Felipe.(1997). Filipino Value System: A Cultural Definition. Manila:Punlad Research House, Inc.
We will divide the class into four groups to present “creatively” in class the following dimensions of the Filipino World view and Values
a. Natural dimension – Group 1
b. Biological dimension – Group 1
c. Communal dimension – Group 2
d. Social dimension – Group 2
e. Normative dimension - Group 2
f. Dimension of the self – Group 3
g. Ethical dimension – Group 3
h. Moral dimension – Group 3
i. Aesthetic dimension - Group 4
j. Teleological dimension – Group 4
k. Ideological dimension – Group 4
Group 1 | Group 2 | Group 3 | Group 4 |

These groups are tentative and simply based on the sitting arrangement except for Ms. Asuncion and Ms. Sadio whom I assigned. If you want the groupings to be changed then text me or email me. I just do not know if we have internet access in Davao. That is also the reason I am sending you this email before we leave Tuesday morning.
5. For January, we will discuss indigenous or ethnic communities, their structure, culture and processes. Main text is as follows.
a. Landa Jocano, Felipe. (1998). Filipino Indigenous Ethnic Communities: Patterns, variations, and typologies. Manila: Punlad Research House, Inc.
6. For February, we will be practicing partipatory methods in studying a community. See main text below:
a. Participatory Methods in Community-based Coastal Resource Management. Published by IIRR,IDRC and CIDA. (HT 395,A8,W67,1997)
7. Actual community study will be conducted in February and March.
Our College faculty meeting will be on November 30, 2010 but I think it will be in the morning. Just in case it will be in the afternoon, please meet by groups, plan for your report and your initial community observation. I suggest that we choose a community within the UP area. If the facuolty meeting is in the morning then we meet in the afternoon and go on with our sharing of the concepts and definitions of a community.
