SERVING THE COMMUNITY: A STUDENT'S JOURNAL-NEY
Before the month of January, we were already assigned with a topic for our Community-Based Research which the environment and disaster preparedness on our small municipality of Santa Catalina, Ilocos Sur.
Initially, I took the initiative and made our group chat in December and have the planning by January because I know we can't do it in the last minute and besides, it will serve as our thematic for the 3rd Quarter.
By the month of January, we started gathering data for our CBR. First, we discussed if we could go out for an interview (police officers, etc.). Although we had discussed about it, I didn't manage to go because there was the perfect errand coincidence at that time and since I was sick with cold apart from the hazy weather by the time. My two other group mates waited us for almost an hour and I apologized for my
disturbance.
situation in case of natural disasters. Actually, they have a plan for the safe evacuation routes for what being said to be a tsunami threat that almost reaches up to 15 meters tall! Fortunately, it didn't happen, yet.
By the second week of January, we started on making our web page with the raw data gathered. We struggled on doing web page because it seemed that all of us on my team doesn't know or it's their first time to do such. Thankfully, my groupmate's mother is a policewoman and she did a great part on our study by assisting reliable sources and more essential data to be added.
For some time, we gradually think through it and the first USB from one of my team got virus so we had no choice but to buy a new. Our group leader and I bought the "new" USB for the storing of our wep page but surprisingly, during the transfer of files, one of my teammates discovered something odd on the newly bought USB, it has song files on it and we just laugh on it (they deleted them for somehow).
Eventually, we fully inspected our paper and was later on printed for a soft copy. And that's when we thought everything was done, but it's just a portion of our endgame.

ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading you blog! I laughed at when you've shared the USB issue. I hope you'll learn more on the area's disaster preparedness.
