On August 20, 2022, the Department of Curriculum, Pedagogy, and Assessment (DCPA) of the Gokongwei Brothers School of Education and Learning Design (GBSEALD) awarded thirty-two graduating Ateneans with a Minor in Education.
Opening Remarks
Fr Johnny C Go, SJ, GBSEALD founding Dean, opened the Awarding Ceremony with a video message. He congratulated all awardees for completing the Minor in Education despite the challenges of the pandemic—a sure sign of Magis in them.
Guest Speaker
As the guest of honor, Clarissa Isabelle L. Delgado, Co-Founder & CEO of Teach for The Philippines (TFP), graced the ceremony virtually with a challenging message for the awardees. She spoke of exercising leadership and how at TFP, how it is not about power or position, but about setting an example.
What will matter most is not what you want to be,
Clarissa Isabelle L. Delgado
but who you want to be.
The Awardees
In response to Ms. Clarissa’s message, Kerima Ruth M. Sonaco shared her experiences as a student who pursued a Minor in Education.
Each education class I took were no doubt
Kerima Ruth M. Sonaco
the classes I enjoyed the most each semester.
But that at the same time, it was difficult for me
since it challenged my traditional thinking
of what teaching and learning should be.
The awardees were also reminded why they took a Minor in Education, and what they will do with it through two videos.
