Now on its 10th year, GP aims to deepen students’ cultural understanding through classroom teaching and observation experiences for its participants.

The students taught Science in Grades 1 and 11, Social Studies in Grade 3, and Mathematics in Grade 5. It was the first time through this project that the students were able to teach all sections of each grade level.

They also visited Krus na Ligas High School and San Vicente Elementary School to observe classes and took a study trip to the Taal Lake crater.

Three professors headed by Prof. Kiwame Kouno came with the students who are mostly in 3rd year college.

Another batch of students is scheduled to visit UPIS on February 19-24 and will observe classes as a step course to enable them to teach the following year. This is the first time for the GP Project to accommodate two batches of students in one year.

The project is initiated by the Ad Hoc Committee on Ehime University-related Projects headed by Prof. Czarina Agcaoili.//Cedric Jacobo
