MERIT or DEMERIT?

Take a look at the new criteria for merit award application here in our school:

Innovation in one's Core Function 15 pts.
Research and Publication 10
Personal and Professional Dev't 20
Involvement in community dev't services 10
Collaboration and teamwork 10
Performance evaluation 25
Attendance 5
Compliance to college/unit req't 5


Hmmm... Isa lang ibig sabihin nito... We should not spend so much time preparing for our teaching because it's only a quarter of the evaluation at the end of the semester. Kaya lang, di naman yata pwede na bawasan ang effort for class teaching para lang ma-meet yung iba pang requirements namin as faculty members. Of course, if the students feel that we are not giving our best because of any reason, it is our name that is at stake, and not just the school's reputation. It's easy to comply with all the requirements in this university but the problem is that we don't have enough time. Imagine, a full-time faculty has 7 three-hour classes in a week, and each class has an average of 45 students. Imagine the tons of teaching-related works like preparing lessons and teaching strategies, preparing handouts or presentation, preparing exams and quizzes, checking, monitoring student performance, computing for grades every six weeks, etc.
Well . . .

Management Lessons from GUNG HO

'I must recognize that man achieves the highest degree of efficiency when he plays. If someone says he works out of loyalty to the company, he is a damned liar.' ----Soichiro Honda Founder-millionaire Honda Motor Co., Ltd. When a company fails, who should take the blame? When the workers complain, who should do some reflections, the management or the workers themselves? Hunt Stevenson, in the movie GUNG HO (means to WORK TOGETHER) , needed to do some reflections before it was too late. His failure to do some actions would result in closure of Assan Motors, thereby leaving hundreds of American laborers unemployed. According to Robert Heller, the author of the article EFFECTIVE MANAGEMENT: TAKING RESPONSIBILITY, "How the boss behaves has a profound effect on how other managers perform - and thus on the performance of the entire outfit. That's a self-evident truth, acknowledged by most people. But few bosses acknowledge the corollary: that inferior performance is partl...

Levels Earned, Lessons Learned in SHAIYA

The holy week was not really holy for me. This was time of the year when I played hard. Really played hard, as in trying to make the toon level every time I logged in . And to help my toon level up, even my husband and my daughter would play with her. This year, my toon is DanieGanda. Danie, for the record, is my daughter's nick name. But I thought of adding the word "Ganda," which is a tagalog term for Beauty. DanieGanda is a human priest in the normal mode. As the rule in Shaiya, a player won't be able to create a character in the hard mode [here, toons are stronger] without first reaching level 40 in the normal mode, which is a level lower than HM. When DanieGanda started, she was power leveled by king-kruller, whom DanieGanda met while my daughter was playing the toon. King_kruller was als o Danie's first friend in Shaiya. At the moment, he's already level 58, UM. The experience was good for Danie was able to meet players from different walks o...
