History Class on Tour
By Mr. Dante Torres
The main thrust of the Area of Political Science is not only to provide knowledge to students but initiate curricular development that will facilitate students’ learning process and allow exploratory activities and experiences that will supplement knowledge acquisition through books.
In order to meet these objectives, the area organized an educational tour for students enrolled in Philippine History last September 19, 2008. This was spearheaded by Atty. Romualdo Francisco and Mr. Dante Torres.
Part of the tour itinerary was the visit to the historical sites such as the Biak-na-Bato National Park in San Miguel, Bulacan, where the infamous Truce of Biak-na-Bato took place; the Barasoain Church in Malolos, Bulacan which was the birthplace of the Asia’s first Constitutional Democracy and Convention of the First Philippine Republic, and the Barasoain lights and sounds which showcase the collection of Municipal antiques and priceless array of artifacts.
