Abstraction As a student, I would uphold

Throughout our discussion we will be guided
by these three questions:
1. What makes us free?
2. How does freedom shape our
experiences?
3. How can we exercise our freedom in a
responsible and beneficial manner?
There are two elements that define freedom.
First, we have voluntariness and second
element of freedom is responsibility.
the idea that humans are the
caretakers of the Earth by
actively embracing a sense of
environmental responsibility in
my daily life. This would involve
making conscious choices to
reduce my ecological footprint,
such as minimizing waste,
conserving energy and water,
and supporting sustainable
products and practices.

What do you mean by voluntariness?

Voluntariness refers to the ability of a person
to act out of his or her own free will and
self-determination.

So what do we mean by free will and self-

determination?
 Ok, self-determination means that a person
may decide to act or not to act, and these
decisions are made out of his or her own
free will.

To be clearer, let’s analyze the following

scenario and figure out how voluntariness
was expressed in the situation. Get your
book and turn to page 80

Class, how do the self-determination and

own free will be incorporated in the situation
or how does voluntariness expressed in the
scenario?

Ok, it is the actions made each of the

character on the scenario.

On the other hand, what can you say about

Mang Lito and his action? What do you
think will be the result of his actions?

Ok, a heroic act and the people who saw his

act may regard him as a hero and express
admiration for him.

To sum up, the two elements that define

freedom is what make us free. The
voluntariness and responsibility go hand-in-
hand to determine a person’s freedom.

The realization of voluntariness and

responsibility in the exercise of our freedom
gives our actions and experiences a whole
new meaning or in other words, those
actions and consequences shaped our
experiences, which it answered our second
question
Application For the next activity, pick a candy of among
the choices you want. After picking, I want
all those who picked the same candy to go
together
The activity is named ‘Choice and Effect’.
Each group will be given a scenario and
based on the scenario, each member will
write in the metacards the choice he will
undertake and the possible consequences of
these choices.
After which, the members
 will paste their answers on the manila paper
that is columned into two—column ‘Choice’
and column ‘Effect’. Each group will have to
select a facilitator, who will be responsible
to guide the group discussion. Select a
scribe, who will take note of the reports of
the other groups once the sharing starts.
And select a reporter, who will share their
group output once the activity ends.

The output should be posted on the four

corners of the classroom. Do the activity for
5 minutes then the reporters will do the
sharing in 3 minutes
