Activity 3
Directions: Read and analyze the following fad or trend situations. What are you going to do if
you encounter these scenarios?
1. Your friend is an avid fan of K-Pop group. She insists that you go with her to watch their
concert which ticket costs P7,000.00.
- Sadly, I will tell her that I cannot go. I’m currently not interested in K-Pop, so the
money will just go to waste if I ever go. 7,000 php is not a small amount of money, I
would rather buy something that I am more interested in.
2. The Department of Education announced that the learning modality will be blended and
distance learning. Your classmates bought gadgets that will suffice their online class as
education platform.
- I wouldn’t buy new gadgets since the ones I already have are doing their job properly.
Plus, the applications or sites needed for online learning wouldn’t need some high-
spec gadgets.
3. Your friends push you to take the course of BS Computer Engineering so that you will
always bond with them and make group works together.
- I stand my ground and tell them that the said course is not for me. I will explain that
we can still have fun even if we aren’t always together. Time management is the key.
