those who may face abuse, neglect and isolation. Most importantly, these rights
give us power and enable us to speak up and to challenge poor treatment from a
public authority.

3. Discuss the ways of taking body temperature and pulse rate.

1. Four Ways to take a body temperature.
a. Orally (in the mouth)
b. Rectally (in the anus)
c. Auxiliary (under the armpit)
d. Using an electronic oral or ear thermometer or temperature strip
a. Oral temperatures are recommended for adults and children ages six years and
older.
Procedure:
 Clean the thermometer with soapy water or rubbing alcohol
  Hold it firmly at the end opposite the bulb and shake the mercury down 95 F
or 35 C or lower.
 Make sure nothing hot and cold has recently been drunk
 Place the bulb of the thermometer under the tongue and close the lips around
it.
Do not bite it. Breathe through the nose and do not talk.
 Wait 3-5 minutes
 Read the thermometer temperatures reading and record.
b. Rectal temperatures are not recommended for children younger than six years or
anyone who cannot hold the thermometer in the mouth. Use only a rectal
thermometer for this procedure.
 Clean the thermometer and shake it down to lower temperature.
 Put Vaseline or other lubricant on the bulb.
 Hold the thermometer one inch from bulb and gently insert it into the rectum
no more one inch. Do not let go. Hold it right at the anus so that it cannot slip
in further. Wait for three minutes.
Note: Rectal temperatures are 0.5 to 1 higher than oral temperatures.
c. Auxiliary temperatures are less accurate and 1 C lower than oral
Produced:
 Use either an oral or rectal thermometer. Shake it down below 95 F/35 C
 Place the thermometer in the armpit and have the child cross his/her arm
cross the chest act hold her opposite upper arm.
 Wait for 5 minutes.
 Read and record the temperatures.
d. Electronic thermometers are convenient and easy to use they are quite accurate
but some are expensive. Temperature strips are convenient but should only be
used to measure auxiliary (armpit temperatures)
2. Taking a Pulse Rate
The pulse is the rate at which a person’s heart beating. As the heart forces blood
through the body, a throbbing can be felt I the arteries whenever they come close to the
skin surface. The pulse can be taken at the wrist, neck or upper arm.
Certain illness can cause the pulse to increase, so it is helpful to know your resting
pulse when you are well. The pulse rate rises about 10 beats per minute for every
degree of fever.
 Count the pulse after the person has been sitting or resting quietly for 5-10
minutes.
 If it is hard to feel the pulse in the wrist, locate the carotid artery in the neck,
just to either side of the windpipe. Press gently.
  Count the beat for 39 seconds, and the double the results for beats per
minute.

3. Explain drug abuse and its prevention measures

Drug abuse is the continuous misuse of any substance, licit, illicit which results
changes in an individual physical, mental or behavior condition.
Drug abuse exists when a person continually uses a drug other than its intended
purpose. This continued use can lead to drug dependence, a state of physical
and psychological dependence or both on a dangerous drug.

4. What are the Prohibit Acts including fines and penalties of RA9165.
The Dangerous Drug Board (DDB) leads the campaign against drug abuse and
illicit trafficking in the Philippines. It was established in 1972 through Republic Act
6425 composed of only seven national government agencies as members. In
2002, the law was repealed by Republic Act 9165 or the Comprehensive
Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002 to give more teeth to the law and to respond to
new challenges against drugs. The law mandates the DDB to develop and adopt
comprehensive, integrated, unified and balanced national drug abuse prevention
and control strategy. It is composed of seventeen (17) ex-officio members, who
are heals or secretaries of other government agencies in the country.

Learning Assessment for Module 4:

After reading this module, the students are required to answer the following items;
Part 1: Know the basic principle in disaster management.
1. Discuss the implication of RA10121 is disaster risk reduction and management

RA10121 provides a comprehensive, all-hazard, multi-sectoral, inter-agency, and

community-based approach to disaster risk management through the formulation
of the National Disaster Risk Management Framework.

A National Disaster Risk Management Plan (NDRMP) is being formulated,

developed, and implemented as the master plan that will provide the strategies,
organization, tasks of concerned agencies and local government units, and other
guidelines in dealing with disasters or emergencies. Through this plan, coherent,
integrated, efficient, and responsive disaster risk management at all levels will
hopefully be achieved.

The law also promotes the development of capacities in disaster management at

the individual organizational, and institutional levels. A very important feature of
this law is it’s call for the mainstreaming of disaster risk reduction in physical and
land-use planning, budget, infrastructure, education, health, environment,
housing, and other sectors.

RA10121 also recognizes local risk patterns and trends and decentralization of
resources and responsibilities and thus encourages the participation of NGO’s
private sectors, community-based organizations and community members in
disaster management. It inhabits the full participation of the Local Government
Units (LGUs) and Communities governance. The approach tends to be
response-oriented or reactive. This is evidenced by the widespread emphasis on
post-disaster relief and short-term preparedness, such as forecasting and
evacuation, rather than on mitigation and post-disaster support for economic
recovery.

Moreover, the Act mandates the establishment of a Disaster Risk Reduction and
Management Office (DRRMO) in every province, city and municipality, and a
Barangay Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Committee (BDRRMC) in
every barangay.

The Strategic National Action Plan on Disaster Risk Reduction for 2009-2019
aims to enhance the capacities of Local Disaster Risk Reduction and
Management Councils.

Finally, RA10121 provides for the calamity fund to be used in support of disaster
risk reduction or mitigation, prevention, and preparedness activities for the
 potential occurrence of disasters and not just for response, relief, and
rehabilitation efforts.

2. Formulate a disaster management framework in your locality based on the six (6)
thematic areas under the disaster management cycle.

Learning tasks for Module 5:

After reading this module, the students are required to answer the following items.

statement on the following task;

2.1. Identify of at least one (1) national security issue that the Philippine
government is facing today.
 The Philippines

Module 6: Environmental Conservation and Protection

Learning Assessment:
After reading this module, the students are required to answer the following items;
1. What is environmental conservation and protection?
Environmental conservation is the protection, preservation, management, or
restoration of natural environments and the ecological communities that inhabit
them. Conservation is generally held to include the management of human use of
natural resources for current public benefit and sustainable social and economic
utilization.
2. Discuss the 7 environmental principles
 This topic highlights the basic environmental principles. We need to learn about
our ecosystem because this is the only way we can protect and take care of our
planet and take actions to our environmental problems.
2.1. Nature Knows Best “Ang Kalikasan ang mas Nakakaalam” (Balance in
Nature)
This principle is the most basic in and in fact encompasses all the others.
Humans have to understand nature and have to abide by the rule nature
dictates. History and our experiences are full of examples to prove the validity
of this principle. In fact, this principle only surfaced when many of the
detrimental effects of technology were recognized and coined thereon as
“ecological backlash.”
2.2. All forms of life are important “Ang lahat ng Uri na may Buhay ay Mahalaga”
Diversity and Stability)
Each organism plays a fundamental role in nature. Ex. It is easy to appreciate
the beautiful organisms like butterflies, especially if one knows their important
role in pollination.
2.3. Everything is connected to everything else “Ang Lahat ay Magkaugnay
(Interdependence)
This principle is best exemplified by the concept of the ecosystem. In an
ecosystem, all biotic and abiotic components interact with each other to
ensure that the system is perpetuated. Any outside interference may result in
an imbalance and the deterioration of the system.
2.4. Everything changes “Ang Lahat ay nagbabago” (Change)
Humans should rethink their relationship with the environment. Changes that
they think may be beneficial to the environment often turn out to be
disastrous. Environmental technologies should be given priority if man would
want more positive changes in the environment. It is said that the only
permanent thing is change.
2.5. Everything must go somewhere “Ang Lahat ay may Patutunguhan” (Materials
Cycle)
When a piece of a paper is thrown away, it disappears from sight but it does
not cease to exist. It ends up elsewhere. Gases released in smokestacks may
disperse but it will end up a component of the atmosphere or brought down by
rains.
2.6. Ours is a finite earth “Ang Kalikasan ay may hangganan” (Finiteness of
Resources)
The Earth’s resources can be classified as either renewable or non-
renewable. Renewable resources are those that can easily be replenished by
natural cycles (e.g. water, air, plants, and animals) while non-renewable
resources are those that replenished through natural cycles (e.g. ores of
various metals, oils, coal) Just how long would the earth be able to sustain
demands on its resources). This is a question that needs serious reflection.
 Unless the factors of population growth, lifestyles, and polluting technologies
are checked, the collapse of the earth might be inevitable.
2.7. Nature is beautiful and we are stewards of God’s creation “Maganda ang
kalikasan at Tayo ay Taga-pangasiwa ng Lahat ng Ginawa ng Diyos”
(Stewardship)
Among all creatures, humans are the only ones made in God’s image and
have been given the right to have dominion over all his creations. Being the
most intelligent and gifted with reason, humans are capable of manipulating
creation to their own advantage. Yet, creation exists not to be ravaged or
abused but to be taken care of. Humans cannot exist without nature. They are
co-natural with the environment they live in. If the environment they live in
destroyed, with it will go Homo Sapiens.
3. The importance of solid waste management
The primary goal of slid waste management is reducing and eliminating
adverse impacts of waste materials on human health and the environment to
support economic development and superior quality of life. This is to be done in
the most efficient manner possible, to keep costs low and prevent waste buildup.
4. What is climate change and its effect to man.
Climate change causes displacement of people in several ways, the most
obvious and dramatic being through the increased number and severity of
weather related disasters which destroy homes and habitats causing people to
seek shelter or livelihoods elsewhere.

Force.
2. What is human right? Cite the legal basis.
Human Rights is a first published Fri Feb 7, 2003; substantive revision Thu Apr
11, 2019
Human rights are norms that aspire to protect all people everywhere from severe
political, legal, and social abuses. Examples of human rights are the right to
 freedom of religion, the right to a fair trial when charged with a crime, the right not
to be tortured, and the right to education.
Th philosophy of human rights addresses questions about the existence, content,
nature, universality, justification, and legal status of human rights. The strong
claims often made on behalf of human rights (for example, that they are
universal, inalienable, or exist independently of legal enactment as justified moral
norms) have frequently provoked skeptical doubts and countering philosophical
defenses (on these critiques see Lacrois and Pranchere 2016, Mutua 2008, and
Waldron 1988). Reflection on these doubts and the responses that can be made
to them has become a sub-field of political and legal philosophy with a very
substantial literature.
2.2. Discuss the four good citizenship values that inhabit to every Filipino?
 PAGKAMAKADIYOS

 PAGKAMAKATAO

 PAGKAMAKA-BAYAN

 PAGKAMAKA-KALIKASAN
2.3. Elaborate the two factors affecting value formation?
 Personal values will be developed through being influenced by family,
culture. Society, environment, religions belief and ethnicity (Blais, 20100.
Acquisition of these values is a gradual and evolutionary process which
happens throughout people’s (Leners at.al., 2006).
3. What a healthy life style?
3.1. What is drug education?
Drug education in schools is meant to inform youth the bad side and
consequences of using different drugs. The goals of these programs are to
show you the physical/medical effects of drug usage with the intent to prevent
more youth from succumbing to drug use due to peer pressure. As noble and
ambitious as some of these programs are they don’t always work.

Drug education in an academic sense can refer to the study of specific

prescription drugs that you can only otherwise learn about the nuances of in
Pharmacy school.

Because you need to learn and understand the associated risks so that you
make an educated/informed decision via weighing the risks as an adult.

3.2. Advantages of having not using illegal drugs?

 I think some of them they will be an advantage because it

3.3. Explain the prohibited acts with corresponding fines or penalties of drug user
pusher etc. of RA9165

4. What is RA10121 and its salient features.

4.1. When and how will you employ first aid to a victim?
Only employees trained in first aid should a victim. Never give first and
treatment for which you are not trained.
4.2. What are the two classification of disaster and give each example.
1. Natural disasters are hazards which are caused because of natural phenomena
(hazards with meteorological, geological or even biological origin). Examples of
natural hazards are cyclones, tsunamis, earthquake and volcanic eruption which
are exclusively of natural origin. Landslides floods, drought, fires are socio-
natural hazards since their causes are both natural and man-made. For
examples flooding may be caused because of heavy rains, landslide or blocking
of drains with human waste.
2. Manmade disasters are hazards which are due to human negligence. Manmade
hazards are associated with industries or energy generation facilities and include
explosions, leakage of toxic waste, pollution, dam failure, wars of civil strife etc.
5. What is national security?

5.1. Differentiate the internal and external threats to national security, cite some
example.
 Internal security refers to upholding national law and maintenance of
peace, law and order within a country’s territory. International Security
comes within the realm of Ministry of Home Affairs in India.
 External Security refers to security against aggression by foreign
countries. External Security comes under Ministry of Defense.
There are several aspects of internal security such as domestic peace, rule of
law, public safety, peaceful co-existence and communal harmony. The main
internal security challenges to the country include military & terrorism,
insurgency or left wing extremism, organized crimes, communal, caste,
ethnical problems, regionalism, cybercrime, coastal security, data security.
There are several historical and non-historical reasons for causing these
problems such as hostile neighbors, porous borders, poverty, unemployment,
inequality, failure of administration, increasing communal divide, casteism,
sectarian politics, linguistic issues, por justice delivery system, nexus among
criminals, politicians and bureaucrats in India, lethal non-state actors and so
on.
6. Differentiate Environmental conservation and Protection.
6.1. How the climate change effects to every Filipino?
Impacts of climate change in the Philippines are immense, including annual
losses in GDP, changes in rainfall patterns and distribution, droughts, threats
to biodiversity and food security, sea level rise, public health risks, and
endangerment of vulnerable groups such as women and indigenous people.
6.2. What human activities that contributed to the degradation of the environment?
Humans impact the physical environment in many ways: overpopulation,
pollution, burning fossil fuels, and deforestation. Changes like these have
triggered climate change, soil erosion, poor air quality, and undrinkable water.
6.3. As NSTP students how will you contribute in order to protect the environment
from pollution and exploitation.
As an NSTP student, I can help protect to the environment by doing a
recycling. It was simple yet, effective way of conserving resources and
reducing individual carbon footprint. Rather than throwing everything in the
trash, separate plastic, paper, and metal waste, and deposit in a recycling bin.
Recycling helps reduce landfill pollution, raw materials and fossil fuel
consumption, and generates a circular economy.
