COURSE DESCRIPTION This course aims to expose players to different facets of Philippine history through the lens of
eyewitnesses. Rather than rely on secondary materials such as textbooks, which is the usual approach in
teaching Philippine history, different types of primary sources will be used – written(qualitative and
quantitative), oral, visual, audio-visual, digital – covering various aspects of Philippine life (political,
economic, social, cultural).
Furthermore, students will be engaged in researching the history of their selected local Christian churches
as well as of Fellowship Baptist College, and how Filipino culture is being weaved by Christian faith. Finally,
a comprehensive discussion on mandated topics such as constitution, taxation, and agrarian reform are
also integrated in this course.
COURSE OBJECTIVES/OUTCOMES At the end of the unit the students must have:
1. Evaluate primary sources for their credibility, authenticity, and provenance.
2. Analyze context, content, and perspective of different kinds of primary sources.
3. Determine the different kinds of primary sources in understanding Philippine History.
4. Develop critical and analytical skills with exposure to primary sources.
5. Utilize primary sources in argumentation in favor or against to a specific issue.
6. Effectively communicate using different genres of historical thinking.
7. Propose recommendations for emerging problems/issues in the light of historical analysis & reflection.
8. Manifest interest in local history and engage in actual learning and exposure on primary sources in the
locality and the indigenous communities.
