 What is It

Very good!

After finishing two activities, it is time for you to read our new lesson. Get your
pen and notebook so that you can jot down important notes while you are reading.
It is important for you to analyze and carefully read the lesson.

Let us continue the discussion!

Citizenship pertains to a full membership in a community in

which one lives, works or was born in (Atlanta and Marquis (2010).
There are three interrelated dimensions of citizens that shape the
common notion of understanding. According to Leydet (2014), they
are as follows:

• Legal dimension – a dimension of citizenship that refers to a person

who is enjoying civil, political, and social rights. He also has the right
to invoke protection by the law.
• Political dimension – another dimension of citizenship that pertains
to a person who is a political agent and is actively participating in
society’s political institutions and system. As a political agent, a
citizen is expected to participate in influencing the behavior of political
decision-makers, in the crafting of laws and policies, and in
encouraging other citizens to promote the common good (Sundaram
et al 2012).
• Identity dimension – this dimension of citizenship is considered a
member of a political community that actively shapes his or her
cultural identity. The citizen is expected to demonstrate national
pride, loyalty, and love for his own country.

The dimensions of citizenship fuel one another. The legal dimension of

citizenship, because of its provision of political rights, provides the basis for political
participation that is stressed under the political dimension of citizenship. However,
political participation strengthens and shapes national identity. And the strong sense
of national identity motivates citizens to participate in society’s political life through
engaging in community and national affairs. Having a strong sense of national
identity inspires citizens to recognize and assert their rights. With the said

10
dimension, it is emphasized and expected from a citizen to know his or her rights to
participate in community and national affairs and to exhibit a balance of nationalism
and patriotism. This expectation is usually attained through lifelong citizenship
education that starts in the family and progresses into the formal education system
Add to these the spheres of peer group influence and information dissemination
drives and advocacy campaigns in mass communication environments.

From the citizen education of the Philippines, we have a preamble that

consists of the Filipino core values as follows:

FILIPINO CORE VALUES

Pagkamaka – Bansa (being

Nationalistic) Aims to promote Philippine
Nationalism, devotion and loyalty to our
own country, by looking through the lives
of different ideal and honorable heroes,
modern day events, people, etc.

Pagkamaka – Tao (being humane) – It

includes the promotion of the common
good and valuing of truth, justice,
freedom, love, equality and peace.

Pagkamaka – Kalikasan (being caring

for the environment) – This involves the
conservation and development of the
country’s patrimony.

Pagkamaka – Diyos (being Godly) – This

encompasses faith in the Almighty God.

11
 Understanding the Philippine Constitution is an obligation of Filipino citizens
so that they may evoke their lawful rights. Being knowledgeable of these rights also
prevents an individual from encroaching on others’ rights and it reminds one of his
responsibilities to the nation. In this aspect, citizenship education clearly takes on
the legal dimension. Aside from this, citizenship education in the country also takes
the form of political dimension through the mandated service learning as follows:

The Citizenship Advancement Training (CAT) – it aims to enhance the

students’ social responsibility and commitment to the development of their
communities and develop their ability to uphold law and order as they assume active
participation in community activities and assisting the members of the community
in times of emergency. It has three components such as:

Citizenship Advancement Training (CAT)

Military orientation – provides learning

opportunities for the students to gain
knowledge, skills and understanding of
the rights and duties of citizenship and
military orientation, focusing on
leadership, fellowship, and personal
discipline.

Community service – it pertains to any

activity that helps achieve the general
welfare and betterment of life of the
member of the community or the
enhancement of its facilities especially
those devoted to improving the health,
education, safety, recreation and morale
of the citizen.

Public safety and law Enforcement

Service – encompasses all programs and
activities that are contributory to the
maintenance of peace and order and
public safety and compliance with laws.

12
 The National Service Training Program (NSTP) – Program aimed at
enhancing consciousness and defense preparedness in the youth by developing the
ethics of service and patriotism while undergoing training in any three program
components as follows:

National Service Training Program (NSTP)

Reserved officers Training Corps

(ROTC) – designed to provide military
training to tertiary level students to
motivate, train, organize and mobilize
them for national defense preparedness.

Literacy Training Services (LTS) –

Designed to train students to become
teachers of literacy and numeracy skills to
school children, out of school youth and
other segments of society in need of their
service.

Civic Welfare Training Service (CWTS)

– Programs or activities contributory to

the general welfare and the betterment of

life for the members of the community.
