Farewell Dinner

 
Together with the other abroad students from Ghana and India, we exchange dishes. We even make a quick percentage to explain our lovely food. Then we pray together, thank to God for the food. The prayer carried out by all religions in turn. Pray by Christians way, Hindus, then closed with Islam. We definitely applied the concept of "Bhinneka Tunggal Ika" that night. We really appreciate the differencies in cultural, religious and skin. I also believe that diversity problem in Indonesia can be cured by increasing awareness that we do different, but to be united we must accept and respect those differences.

Closing Program

Four weeks just passed. We have united for a month. At the closing of the program we gave souvenirs to the Tarlac Agricultural University and TAU-Lab School. Also to the Cooperating Teachers and Supervisors, the staff who have helped us while living in the Philippines. "On the first day we count down the time to return back home, but at the end of the program we naively re-count the day from the beginning until the day we are reunited". Thank you!

The second week quite different, it was filled with an introductory to the education system in Philippines. We have a tour and shown various laboratories that they used in the learning and teaching process. We were also taught to make lesson plans and exchange information related to differences in the education system implemented in Indonesia and Philippines. Indonesia applies the K-13 curriculum while Philippines applies a curriculum called k to 12. From the terms used they are almost similar but the application is different.
