Name: Angelo Jan David Garon or "Gelo"

OFW parent: Father works in the United States Biggest challenge: "Missing him, plus nobody taught me how to court a woman. Just kidding. It's

hard to not have the person you admire and look up to right beside you. His physical presence islike gold to me."

Hardest moment: "Every Christmas when he can't go home because he is one of the heads of thecompany he works for. It's one of the family's most fun moments of the year and it's always so sadthat he's not there."

The silver lining: "I have to say it's a good thing he became an OFW especially for the needs of thefamily because we are a big, big family. I have 6 siblings. This disadvantage of not having himaround comes with a complementing advantage. I am more independent and self-sufficient."

Lesson learned: "Be excellent in everything you do. Remember that there are people who supportyou even if they are not with you."

Dream: "I'm currently thinking of building my own IT firm. But my mom has a different dream for me:she wants me to become a politician. I think it will be better to become a politician so I can help

OFW families more."

Name: Mark Anthony Lacsinto

OFW parent: Mother works in Qatar Biggest challenge: "There is no one you can approach if you are encountering personal problems." Hardest moment: "I graduated [from high school as a] valedictorian and yet my mother was not able

to come I was crying as I delivered my speech. I kept thinking how much happier I would havebeen if she was personally there clapping for me and putting my medals on me. After the graduationceremony when we came back home, my sister told me that my mother called while I was giving myspeech, and my sister funneled [the phone] into the speaker. My mother cried while she listened tome."

The silver lining: "She and my father are able to provide our needs. They really work hard to supportour education."

Lesson learned: "Even though [there is] distance and [there are] years of separation, understandwhy your parents come up with the decision to work abroad it's for our own sake."

Dream: "To be a broadcaster, an anchor I really think my passion is there."


16/32

Name: Mark Collin Solas

OFW parent: Father is a seaman Biggest challenge: "The emotional part of being far away from my father. I have to cope with

challenges [without him]." Hardest moment: "Occasions like school graduations that only happen once and where my father

should be. I was sad when he told me that he won't be able to attend my graduation from college,but [I know his] support [for me] doesn't stop."

The silver lining: "He supports our family's daily needs to help sustain whatever we have."

Lesson learned: "I make the most of my time with him when he is here in the Philippines." Dream: "To become a seaman. I'm taking up his course to take on the same job, the same

profession, so that I [may] appreciate what he is doing for us to be financially stable. I love his job; tobe an officer, to man a vessel, to be a captain."

Agree on a common set of goal of

at least considering the idea of making true problem-basedlearning part of the standard

curricula


29/32

To do this

It would be messyIt would be harder to teach

It would take more time


30/32

But

We are preparing students for thefuture, just teaching students totake tests is not preparing themfor anything other than just takingtest


31/32
