The activities in this module are arranged from simple to complex to help the
learner gradually master the desired learning competency. Give him/her the needed
support and guidance so that he/she will be able to perform the task to prepare
him/her later to compare and contrast the presentation of the same text in different
multimodal texts.
Multimodal Text
In the previous part of this module, you have learned to express your thoughts by
comparing and contrasting elements of a poster with a single theme. Is it easier to get the
message when you look for the similarities and differences of a multimodal text? Would like to
know more about the multimodal text and how to unveil its meaning? Then, what are you
waiting for? Let us go!
A text may be defined as multimodal when it combines two or more semiotic systems
which include picture books, textbooks, graphic novels, comics, and posters, where meaning
is conveyed to the reader through varying combinations of:

Directions: Watch “Quingua, Saan Nagmula? SINELIKSIK Finalist 2017 Municipality of
Plaridel” on the link below. Then compare and contrast it with the written text below using the
graphic organizer.
Link: [Link]
The historical past of the town of Plaridel can be traced from some records way
back in 1595, in the early years of the Spanish colonization, when the place was a vast
undeveloped plain covered with thick forest and cogon grass, with the rivers Angat and
Tabang running through it. The Angat River flowed directly in a snakelike wave to Calumpit
meeting the Pampanga River, while the Tabang river which was a mere branch with
adjoining intersections dividing the middle of the present Poblacion, flowed to Manila Bay
passing Guiguinto and Bulacan towns. The water of this river was called "Tabang" or fresh
water.
Very few people lived here, and closely related with each other. Each group had a
leader called "tandis". Different groups spoke different dialects, Pampango, Pangasinan,
Ilocano and Tagalog. From Calumpit, Spanish priest and missionaries of the Augustinian
Order led by the Rev. Fr. Bernardino de Leon frequently visited the place, preaching the
Catholic faith … using the "balsa" or bamboo raft as their means of transportation. These
missionaries thought of clearing the land and established settlements and convened the
people to unity. The thought of a plan to give favored the ideas so that everyone set to
work. Each "Tandis" drew a plan to pursue. For seven years, the groups of people labored
so much that when the priest returned, they found the place to have been cleared. They
inquired from the natives who should be credited, and the Pampangos exclaimed, "Quing
wawa Ding tagalog po" or the Tagalogs got it. So every now and then, to every question
of the friars, the people would reply. "Buti Quing Wawa Tagalog, Quing wa". The priest
believed that the Tagalogs should be credited and should receive the gold medal and from
thereafter the place was called Quingua.
Like any other community, Quingua grew and prospered. The life of the people
flourished and intelligent sons were born. One of them, Jose J. Mariano, who was then the
"Alcalde" or town mayor, had the initiative of renaming the town. Congressman Pedro
Magsalin, a friend of the alcalde sponsored a bill changing the name of the town from
Quingwa to Plaridel. The bill was passed by the Philippine Congress and was approved
by President Manuel L. Quezon. On December 29, 1936, amidst elaborate celebrations,
the town was renamed PLARIDEL in honor of the great hero of Bulacan - Marcelo H. del
Pilar; in the presence of political luminaries that included Speaker Gil Montilla,
Congressman Pedro Magsalin, Honorable Nicolas Buendia, Honorable Eulogio Rodriguez,
Honorable Elpidio Quirino and Governor Jose Padilla, Sr.

Higher Education
By: Ronaldo Soriano
A high-school senior's decision about whether to attend a community college or
a four-year university can be difficult since similarities exist between both forms of higher
education. At a university, students work the first two years to complete their basic
education requirements. Emphasis is often on survey classes plus writing, math, social
science, and science sequences. After students fulfill these mandatory requirements,
they begin to work on courses related to their major or primary field of study. At a
community college, many two-year degrees require survey courses and sequences of
classes in the areas of writing, math, social science, and science. After students complete
these basic education requirements, they earn an Associates Degree and can then
transfer to the university to begin courses related to their major or primary field of study.
At a university during the registration process, students usually have a choice of classes,
professors, and class times. If several different sections of a course are available,
students can select early morning, daytime, or evening classes. They can often group
their classes on Monday, Wednesday, Friday or Tuesday and Thursday. The same is
true during the registration process at a community college. Students can select their
classes, instructors, and class times as long as sections of the courses are available.
One additional similarity between the two forms of higher education involves
expectations. At the university, professors expect students to be responsible, to study
without being reminded or reprimanded, and to learn to balance the different demands
and aspects of their personal and academic lives. These expectations stun many
students during the first term as a freshman. They quickly have to learn to behave and
think more maturely and responsibly. The same is true for students attending community
colleges. At the community college, instructors expect students to be responsible for their
work as well as with decisions in their personal lives. They expect students to study
without being frequently reminded, lectured, or reprimanded. The responsibility for
learning shifts to the students. The students need to learn to balance the different
demands and activities of their personal and academic lives. Because both universities
and community colleges are similar in so many ways, the decision to attend one or the
other may best be made by looking at the differences rather than the similarities of the
two forms of higher education.

Read the essay, Pliant Like the Bamboo written by Ismael Mallari.
Like a Bamboo we Filipinos adapt well in difficult situations that likewise showcase our
resilience as a nation.
There is a story in Philippine folklore about a mango tree and a bamboo tree. Not
being able to agree as to which was strongest of the two, they called upon the wind to
make the decision.
The winds blew its hardest. The mango tree stood fast. It would not yield. It knew
it was strong and sturdy. It would not sway. It was too proud. It was too sure of itself. But
finally its roots gave way, and it tumbled down.
The bamboo tree was wiser. It knew it was not as robust as the mango tree. And
so every time the wind blew, it bent its head gracefully. It made loud protests, but it let the
winds have its way. When finally the wind got tired of blowing, the bamboo tree still stood
in all its beauty and grace.
The Filipino is like the bamboo. He knows that he is not strong enough to withstand
the onslaughts of superior forces. And so he yields. He bends his head gracefully with
many loud protests.
And he has survived. The Spaniards came and dominated him for more than three
hundred years. And when the Spaniards left, the Filipinos still stood—only much richer in
experience and culture.
The Americans took the place of the Spaniards. They used more subtle means of
winning over the Filipinos who embraced the American way of life more readily than the
Spaniards’ vague promise of the hereafter.
Then the Japanese came like a storm, like a plaque of locusts, like a pestilence
rude, relentless and cruel. The Filipino learned to bow his head low to “cooperate” with
the Japanese in their “holy mission of establishing the Co-Prosperity Sphere.” The Filipino
had only hate and contempt for the Japanese, but he learned to smile sweetly at them and
to thank them graciously for their “benevolence and magnanimity.”
And now that the Americans have come back and driven away the Japanese,
those Filipinos who profited most from cooperating with the Japanese have been loudest
in their protestations of innocence. Everything is as if the Japanese had never been in the
Philippines.
For the Filipino will welcome any kind of life that the gods offer him. That is why,he
is contented, happy and at peace. The sad plight of other peoples of the world is not his.
16
To him, as to that ancient Oriental poet, the past
is already a dream and tomorrowin only a
vision but today, well-lived makes every
yesterday a dream of happiness and
every tomorrow, a vision of hope. In like
manner, the Filipino regards vicissitudes
of fortune as the bamboo tree regards
the angry blasts of the blustering wind.
The Filipino is eminently suited
to his romantic role. He is slender and
wiry. He is nimble and graceful in his
movements. His voice is soft, and he
has the gift of languages. In what other
place in the world can you find people
who can carry on a fluent conversation
in at least three languages?
This gift is another means by which
the Filipino has managed to survive. There
is no insurmountable barrier between him
and any of the people who have come to
live with him — Spanish, Americans,
Japanese. The foreigners do not have to
learn his language. He easily manages to
master theirs.
Verily, the Filipino is like the bamboo
tree. In its grace, in its ability to adjust itself
to the peculiar and inexplicable whims to fate,
the bamboo tree is his expressive and symbolic
national tree. It will have to be, not the molave
nor the narra, but the bamboo.
B. Directions: Use the Venn Diagram to compare and contrast the qualities of a Filipino and
of the Bamboo plant. Write at least three distinct qualities and four similarities.
