Finding A Common Ground: A Holistic Approach to Education for the 21st Century

What do we really talk about when we talk about the future of learning? We talk about today, what is happening now, and how our decisions today will affect the next generations of young learners.

There is no discussion of how the field of education has been undergoing a radical transformation without first acknowledging that the 4th Industrial Revolution is here, and that we have to face its challenges together. Its effects have shaped and defined the practices and theories that we share and develop as stakeholders of education to help raise the Whole Child: we acknowledge the importance of a holistic perspective when it comes to health, we make sure that our schools are safe and open learning environments, we rethink the ways with which we engage the new generation of learners, we strive to create a holistic learning community, and we do our best to prepare young learners for the challenges that our world faces today.

Taiwan ushers in the future of ‘smart healthcare’

Imagine hospital beds so intuitive that they can track both a patient’s vital signs and sleeping patterns? What about robot-assisted surgery when the doctor and patient are miles apart? These scenes may soon be reality as the automation technology is gradually revolutionizing healthcare through to the era of ‘smart healthcare’.

The concept of smart healthcare diverges from traditional approaches to healthcare; instituting intelligent and intuitive systems that improve the quality of patient care.

Jodi Sta. Maria brings true-to-life scares as Clarita in Black Sheep's first horror film

Evil is all around us and in Black Sheep's first horror film, Clarita, viewers are treated to a horror  film about the first recorded possession in the Philippines that shocked the entire world. Jodi Sta. Maria has been well regarded as one of the most versatile actresses in the country and in Clarita where she plays the titular role, expect to see Sta. Maria like you've never seen her before.

Before the term "viral" was even coined, the case of Clarita Villanueva's possession became a worldwide sensation and was one of the most talked about events in the history of Manila. For the first time on the big screen, viewers can experience Clarita's journey in all its glory.

Black Sheep's first horror movie 'Clarita' is coming to cinemas this June 12

Too intense' Clarita trailer rated "X" twice

Black Sheep takes a short break from releasing unique love stories as the less than one -year-old film outfit ventures into producing horror film 'Clarita."

Topbilled by Jodi Sta. Maria who plays 'Clarita' herself, the film, directed by Derick Cabrido, is slated for a nationwide run starting June 12.

Quezon's Game - A Time Of Rescues and Restrictions

With most of the entertainment choices either tell about the present or the future, it is refreshing to see another historical movie that will open our eyes about those era, the flaws and achievements they contributed for what we enjoy today. Not to be confused with the Artikulo Uno trilogy with Goyo as its latest release, Quezon's Game is a historical telling of the life of President Manuel L Quezon in the prelude of the Second World War as he attempts to save thousands of Jews from annihilation.

Playing Quezon is Raymond Bagatsing who is a very versatile and impressive actor in movies and television. His physical features are strikingly similar to the real Quezon and enhanced by make up. But his performance playing the sickly president of the Philippine Commonwealth was moving. Playing Donya Aurora Quezon is Rachel Alejandro who also gave a calm yet convincing performance giving balance to the tense situation of the cause to save the Jews.

Despite we already know what will happen in the end, execution and performance would still make it a great movie, which it did and even left me teary-eyed. It made use of a lot of elements that brings the era alive like the social gatherings, the furnishing, and even used the famous Las Casas De Acuzar
