Application of mathematics in Uling making

Uling making is the process of heating woods in an airless space until it produces a carbon- containing substance, naturally black. Basic knowledge in mathematics can be applied in this process. In this process, we learn to apply the principle of ratio and proportion between the number of woods and the number of sack in one process of uling making. Uling makers used this principle when they have specific aim as to the number of sacks they want to produce. Also, uling makers can apply their knowledge in measurement and estimation in this process. They will use their knowledge about measurement to estimate how wide a certain number of woods can occupy. Knowledge about circumference and congruent distances are also applied in uling making. Concepts about congruent distances between the holes in each side are necessary in order to produce a nice quality of charcoals that are proportionately heated and burned. And lastly, principles in business math is also used in uling making, makers used the concepts about capital, profit, debt, and interest here. Even simple addition, subtraction, multiplication and division are used in the process of selling and making uling. And most importantly the concepts and principles in counting is a necessary in this process.

Uling making is just a simple livelihood for ordinary people but its simplicity doesn’t mean it does not require any knowledge about math in the process involve. Uling makers should have basic knowledge in mathematics to produce a number of products proportional to the number of raw materials used and most importantly, it is necessary to produce a better quality of uling from a good quantity of woods.

Reflections

Of all our courses in college, I think Community Immersion is one which can best effect CHANGE. Personally, I've changed a lot since our immersion because I was able to blend with people of different personalities, culture, religion, and outlook in life.

However, I personally felt sad at some point, seeing the reality of the public education this nation has. My heart just goes out for the students and the teachers who are out there, sacrificing a lot, despite the lack. Our youth absolutely deserves an educationway way better than what they get right now.

This experience inspired me to do better as I prepare myself to become a future educator, not for myself or for my own personal gains, but for every child who will sit in my classroom.

Community Immersion is one of the most looked-forward to events in the life of a college of education student. And the excitement builds up every passing day until it culminates during the exciting, challenging community immersion week, which is, for me, a once-in-a-lifetime experience that I can never forget in my whole life.

During our immersion in East Valencia National High School, I missed a lot what I left here in Iloilo City like my family, watching tv, texting, and surfing the internet. But as days passed by, I started to enjoy my stay there and I even forgot what I’ve been missing. My one week stay there helped me a lot to become an effective teacher. I learned how to control my temper, not only towards the students, but more especially towards my own classmates. Conflicts were inevitable, but with open-mindedness, humility, and teamwork,resolutions were at hand.

What I can never forget of all my experiences in East Valencia National High School, which I found so much fun, was joining the high school students in their morning calisthenics to the music of “Hands Up, Baby Hands Up.”

Moreover, I find my visit to the Aeta community a very meaningful one. They not only have a very beautiful place but they also are a beautiful people. I learned to appreciate their culture and very simple lifestyle. I also learned how to make charcoal and some of their language..

My one week experience during community immersion surely made me better person and helped me realize that education is not an ordinary course but it is indeed noble profession.

With pride and confidence I can now say that I am ready to face the real world of Education.

-Art Ryan Cason

Experiencing first hand and being involved personally, even just for a week, in the activities of the school and the community, made me realize that I am in the right profession…so far.

The feeling of facing different students, how you encounter problems and act on them helped me to practice my decision-making skills and initiative. One of the most memorable moments I had was during my demonstration teaching. It felt so great being called “Ma’am”.

Seven days of community stay together with my classmates taught me countless lessons. The hidden talents my classmates possess, their different attitudes, their strengths and weaknesses were all exposed. The sleepless nights which resulted to red-puffy eyes were witnesses to the challenges we encountered.

I can now say that I am ready to be a teacher of the future generation.

It is difficult to define my experience during the Community Immersion because it was a life-changing one effect encompasses the heart, soul and mind.
When we had our visit in the Aeta Community, the place, as well as the people living there, captivated my heart. I realized that life could possibly be unfair for them. But seeing those faces full of joy and contentment, of hopes and dreams, I even think that they are the luckier ones.
My Community Immersion experience was definitely amazing and unique. It taught me several things that I can learn from no one else. Living my days without my parents beside me taught me how to become independent. But living my days with different people, with different personalities, had brought me experiences that would last a lifetime. Having a social interaction with young hearts has taught me to become a leader at some points of life. To see the joy in some of the students simply because we were there was something that brings about a certain kind of humility each of us needs to feel at some point in our lives.
Our Community Immersion class had long been over, but its memories will always stay in my heart…and will always be a part of my wonderful life.
-Cheer Amor Diorda
I value all the memories in our community immersion because I know that I have changed because I have witnessed the lives of the people-how contented they are of the little things they have. It is so nice to feel that during our visit to theAeta community, they were willing to share with us their experiences and the interesting lives they live in the mountains.
My experience in Community Immersion inspires me to pursue my dream of helping people for them to have a better future-and the first step is completing their education.
Our last day in the community was very memorable for us because on this day we saw laughters and tears among the students. Laughters because of the enjoyment they had in our activities. Tears because it’s our last day together…
I can say that our activity was a success but of course it was because of the guidance and help of the Almighty God. To Him be the greatest glory.
-Tanya VenusaDollete

“Experience gives us the testfirst and the lessons later”. I got to prove the truth of this quotation during our community immersion in East Valencia National High School.

During our demonstration teaching, I observed that the students enjoyed a lot the activities thatwe prepared. I learned that when teaching students, I need to consider so many factors which may affecttheir performance in school. For one, time is very important. Then, appropriate strategies, objectives and assessment must also be aligned for maximum effect to take place. Moreover, I also learned that motivation is very important to prepare students for the new lesson. Reflection in Aeta

In the Aeta community, I got to realized that the aetas are no different from us. Their color might be a bit different, but we are the same creature of the God whose value lies within. Now, I can meet aetas on the streets without hesitation because I was I was able to spend one day of my life with them.

-Desiree Espiritu

The Community Immersion in East Valencia National High School gave me an exposure to people of different traits, personality, and culture, and therefore, was very rich in terms of learning. I realized that to be a teacher is to be busy (very busy), tiring, and to always be in demand to do different tasks. Yet a teacher can always have fulfilling and promising experiences. For one, along the way, you get to meet students who become friends and become a part of your life…like family. Something money can’t buy.

-Famila Espiso

This community immersion helped me a lot to be an independent individual. I learned many things as a student, as a future teacher and, and as an ordinary person. I learned how to manage my things and be responsible enough to do my jobs. It helped me in preparing myself to become a professional teacher.

In those days that we are in the school, at first, I felt disappointed because of the opening program but the students there were so polite that when they met and greeted you, they had to bow down their heads to show respect. When the fifth day came (closing program), many students joined the talent showdown and enjoyed a lot their dance numbers and watching the Search for Mr. and Ms. High School. Some of them cried because for them it was the first time that such fun and exciting activities were conducted. Itoverwhelmed us and made us happy.

I am so thankful to all my classmates who helped me during that time when I got sick. I now know who are those persons who are ready to sacrifice for me. THANK YOU CLASSMATES, DR. GENESIS CAMARISTA, AND BRGY. CAPTAIN ELIDIA for the help.

-Rosalie G. Gelano

Community immersion was a great experience and test for me because it measured how I was able to blend harmoniously with my thirty plus classmates of different personalities and who were raised in thirty plus different families. It sure was a test of patience, humility, and teamwork.

We had lined up different activities every day and one of those was the “MATH Day”, wherein we provided students with various activities like the math games, math trail, film viewing, math quiz bee, and so on. It was touching to hear some students say that it was the first time they enjoyed an activity that much and were thankful for it.

Though we enjoyed our community immersion, yet not all moments were happy ones. Some of us had misunderstandings and so made our dealings a bit awkward until everything is resolved. Others got sick including me. But to sum it all up, we really enjoyed the community immersion 2013, we learned some lessons from it, and it helped mold our character into a better one.

-John Paul Montialbucio

The immersion 2013 was a great experience for me, not only because I enjoyed being with my group mates, but also because I realized the worth of being in this profession, of being a teacher. Not only for the lessons I need to learn to impart to my students someday, but also for being with my friends whom I consider as my second family.

-Marjie Lyn Pineda

Community Immersion is designed for the pre-service teachers in order to enhance and develop their life skills and to apply what they have learned in some Professional Education courses. I had encountered so many learning experiences during the Immersion. For one, it allowed me to get a glimpse on the real world where will end up soon to spend my whole working life.

I also learned to work interdependently because I realized that is one way to express to the other members of the group that I trust them and at the same time they can trust me especially in difficult situations. I was given the chance to know my classmates better, especially my groupmates. I realized that the person I see in the classroom-the studious one, the time-conscious one, and the structured one might be so much different from the person I got to live with-the caring one, the cooperative one, the thoughtful, and so on.

Moreover, the Immersion helped me realize that whatever circumstances I have to encounter, I should practice self-control and must be considerate of the feelings of others. Respect for each person’s unique personality is also very important to consider when one is in a group.

Finally, we might be different from one another, yet these differences made us bond together and brought us much closer than before- a very beautiful experience.

During our seven days in East Valencia, BuenavistaGuimaras, I have experienced to be a teacher and to face the real world of teaching. Each day, our adviser indicated a specific event or task that we must do as a part of our requirement in this course. Such activities tested our skills and character. It taught us to adapt to the environment and to learn to adjust with my classmates whom I never expected to be closed with after the community immersion.

One of the lessons, important lesson, I learned was to wake up as early as 5 AM just to be prepared for the day’s line up of activities. I manage to handle activities like being a quiz master during the Math Quiz Bee. I also was able to live with anaeta family for a day. That experience taught me about their life styles and their being as human as I am.

From Student to Teacher and to many more!

Community immersion can be described in so many adjectives I can ever think of – great, awesome, incredible, worthwhile, memorable, one of a kind, stressful but fun and an infinite more on the list.

This whole experience helped me become a better teacher and a better me. It helped me be more responsible because aside from taking care of myself, I had to manage a group as well. With every day fully booked with activities, we learned to use time wisely. We also became a Jack of all trades because aside from teaching, we also have to dance, coach, organize and do household chores.

The one-week activity also allowed me to know my classmates more, especially the ones who lived with me in the Home Economics room. I realized that there are a lot more of traits that they possess than what I see in school. I never even expected that I will have that much fun with them. I was able to see them differently from their label as “my classmates”. Most of all, I was able to experience the “true love” from a person who is not even related to me by blood, my best friend’s love. (Oh, let me restate that – my sister’s love.)

Field Study 3 did not only help me become a better teacher in the future but also helped me become a better me.

-Clarence Kay D. Soliva

“Many are called but few as chosen”, a quote from the Bible which is also, for me, as true in the teaching profession. I consider myself a lucky one to be ending up in the teaching profession.

Community Immersion is truly an unforgettable experience. It was fun, great and worth to be treasured for a lifetime. My one week stay at East Valencia National High School exposed me to the real life situation of a teacher. This was really the time I said to myself that “I haven’t regretted I took up Education as my course”. It feels great and enjoyable to teach students. Touching and changing students’ lives for the better is a big achievement of a teacher. I realized that I am lucky enough to experience those. Most of all I thank God for giving me an opportunity to experience all of it. Now, I can say that all those experiences helped me realize that I am ready to become a TEACHER.
