The Language Program is inviting you to join them in this specially curated webinar series which aims to help teachers chart the importance of language education despite these limited situations. LP hopes that even during this pandemic, language teachers can still situate themselves using remote learning modes to teach language/languages to the best that they can.
The general theme of the webinar aims to focus on three crucial impressions in English Language Education: the nature of language and language change, the variousness of language, and the teaching-learning of language in the context of the pandemic. Thus, we offer:
Language, Languages, Languaging in the multilingual 21st century classroom

UP SIBOL aims to become a lasting pillar of local innovation of medical devices adapted to the needs of our people. It embodies the mantra, designed by the Filipino for the Filipino.

Webinar #69 September 10, 2021 “Limited Face-to-Face School: Ligtas Ba?” Special Topic
Without enough health care workers, we will be unable to curb the pandemic. What are the immediate and long-term plans for this?
To sustain the need for health human resources — we need to make sure that we are continuously training new health care professionals – not at some future time, but now.
But are we ready to open our schools for face-to-face learning for health care workers?
Many of our health care workers have children who are still in school. Some are following in the footsteps of their parents pursuing medicine, nursing, dentistry, pharmacy, allied medical professional training. At a time when more health professionals are needed to meet the continuing and growing needs of our people, how are our schools preparing to ensure that our country is not depleted of health professionals?
In this webinar of STOP COVID DEATHS, we will take a closer look at how some schools for health professionals are preparing to re-open and sustain the learning needs of the next generation of health care workers. We will discuss the many challenges and constraints, but will also celebrate the innovations and creative ways by which our teachers and faculty are ensuring that our aspiring doctors, nurses, dentists, pharmacists, medical technologists among others — are able to acquire knowledge as well as skills in treating and caring for patients, particularly in the complex context of the pandemic. We will look at how students might be exposed on their way to school and back; dormitory life, testing – and how we can keep them safe as a community.
Presenters are: Dr. Carmencita D. Padilla, University of the Philippines, Manila; Dr. Caroline Marian S. Enriquez, School of Nursing, Our Lady of Fatima University; Dr. Maria Cristina Damasco-Padolina, Centro Escolar University. Reactors are students: Rani Ailyna Domingo, UP Medicine Class 2022; and Daniel Louise E. Puspos, Dentistry COMPASS Chapter, CEU.
Join your credible on-line community as we discuss a growing concern that requires national attention, resources and substantial investments from the highest levels of government. Without good options and facilities for training health professionals in a safe way — it will be very difficult to provide health care to our population and can create more complex problems in the future.

Webinar #70 September 17, 2021 “COVID-19 Outbreak sa Probinsiya” Special Topic
The places with the highest numbers of COVID-19 are Quezon City, Cavite, Laguna, Manila, and Bulacan. It is to be expected that efforts to control the spread of the virus have focused on these places. However, recent news reports point to increasing numbers of COVID-19 cases, high positivity rates, and congested hospitals in the provinces. What is the situation in different provinces? What are the challenges in vaccination, testing, treatment, and care? What are the innovations from the field? How are our frontliners coping in the provinces?
In this episode of STOP COVID DEATHS we will take a look at the situation and the response in different parts of the country. Apparently, there are cities that do not have their own molecular laboratories for RT-PCR tests. When hospitals are full, referrals are made to other provinces. There are limited ICU beds and shortages of oxygen in some areas. And yet despite all these limitations, health workers are doing their best to meet the rising need for services using “bayanihan” and collective action with the communities, the private sector and with non-profit organizations. Some innovations are in reporting, additional allowances for front liners from private sector donations, networking for RT-PCR testing and local production of oxygen.

The UP Cherubim and Seraphim (UPCS), official children’s choir of the University of the Philippines (UP) in Diliman, is celebrating 50 years of joyful singing with a virtual concert, “Aurea Carmina” (Golden Songs), to be premiered on its official Facebook page @UP Cherubim & Seraphim on September 25, 2021 at 7:00 p.m.
Founded in 1971 by Prof. Flora Zarco Rivera of the UP College of Music, the group has championed the development of a unique Filipino repertoire for children by regularly commissioning new works, drawing on this archive, and sharing this repertoire with children all over the country. The golden anniversary concert will feature songs by Lucio San Pedro (“Sa Mahal Kong Bayan”), Felipe Padilla de Leon (“Maligayang Bati”), Eudenice Palaruan (“Sa Dakong Sikatan”), Joey Ayala (“Manong Pawikan”), and Ryan Cayabyab (“Nais Ko” and “Bata ang Bukas”) in fresh new choral arrangements by Krina Cayabyab, Nhick Pacis, Phoebe Roa Pacleb and UPCS alumna, Annie Roque-Nepomuceno.
The choir consists of 28 talented young artists ranging in age from 7-16 and drawn from the UP Integrated School and other institutions from the communities surrounding UP, the national niversity. It is currently led by Elena Rivera Mirano (Director Emeritus) and Alyssa Liyana Dioquino (Associate Conductor), with Celinda Guevarra and Michelle Nicolasora as pianists.
They will be joined by five decades of singers coming from the ranks of the group’s alumni. Special guest performers include Joey Ayala, Ryan Cayabyab, Lynn Sherman (also an alumna of the group), Solinda Bautista, Vikoy Bautista, Felicitas Cabildo, Luisa Dioquino, Phoebe Roa Pacleb, and Robin Rivera, instrumentalists.
The concert is brought to you through the generous sponsorship of the UP Diliman Office for Initiatives in Culture and the Arts (OICA). Visit the UP Cherubim and Seraphim’s official website for more information.
