    Comparison of Philippine Education during Spanish Era and American Era.

    Spanish and American are both develop and upgrade the Philippine Education
    during the time of their colonization in the country.

    SPANISH PERIOD

    History

     The history of Cebu goes way beyond 439 years ago when the island became a
    province at the start of the Spanish colonization.

     Long before that, Cebu was already the center of trade of what is now the
    southern Philippines, dealing with traders from China, Malaysia, Japan, India,
    Burma and other parts of Asia.

     Cebu had an organized social structure before the Spaniards came — with small
    groups headed by a datu who served as leader.

     A datu governed his community, settled disputes, made decisions, protected his
    village from enemies, led them into battle, and received labor and tributes from his
    people. The position being both a political office and a social class, his authority
    was taken from his lineage.
     A community ranged from 30 to 100 households grouped as a barangay and based
    mostly on kinship. Aside from the datu, there were free men called timawa and
    olipon. Spanish reports called the role of an olipon as dependent rather than a
    slave because of the absence of violence and harshness notable in European
    slavery.

     People in Cebu then were called pintados because men were heavily tattooed.
    Lavish ornaments such as gold jewelry were used not only by women but also
    men.

     Prior to Spanish colonization, there were already permanent townhouse-looking


    wooden structures where the datus lived. Ordinary people lived in field cottages or
    balay-balay that were on stilts. Hagdan (house ladder) was a common sight, with
    floors (salog) made of bamboo or wood and roof (atop) made of palm tree
    shingles.

    AMERICAN PERIOD

    History

     The history of the Philippines from 1898 to 1946 began wit the outbreak of
    Spanish-American war in April 1898.
     United States formally recognized the independence of the Republic of the
    Philippines on July 4, 1946.
     Signing the Treaty of Paris on December 10, 1891 Spain ceded the Philippines
    to United States for 20 million dollar.

    Education became a very important issue for the United States colonial government,


    since it allowed it to spread their cultural values, particularly the English language, to the
    Filipino people.[5] Instruction in English language, and American history, lead to forming
    of a national identity and Filipino nationalism.
