batch 2019,
Storm Gatchalian of 10-Molave won runner-up honors in the feature writing for beginners contest at the recent Elevate V: Understanding Biases and Objectivity held last Saturday, September 24 at the UPIS 7-12 grounds.
Gatchalian wrote a feature article titled “Memorable Yah!” about how one can be remembered. His piece was chosen among more than 20 works of other high school students who also joined the competition.
Elevate is an annual event organized by DZUP Radio Circle, one of the student organization in the UP College of Mass Communication. The event aims to promote responsible journalism among high school students and future practitioners of the field. Around 500 students from various schools nationwide joined this year’s workshop and competition.
UPIS was represented by 21 Grade 10 students from the Social Sciences and Humanities track. They were assigned to different parts of the competition such as editorial writing, radio broadcasting, layouting, and photojournalism.
“Marami akong natutunan….very educational, but at the same time very fun kasi parang pwede mong matutunan kung ano yung skills mo na magagamit mo din sa real life,” Gatchalian said of the event.
Aside from Gatchalian, Josh Santos’ group also won first place in the radio broadcasting event wherein groups of students from different schools were tasked to create a 5-minute radio program.
