naging usap-usapan ka Mak kailan ng

pagpapaimbestiga ng isang mambabatas

ilang paaralan na umano'y minumulat ang

mga mag-aaral kapag hindi nagsalita ng

Ingles sa klase paraan umano ito upang

matuto ng Ingles ang mga estudyante pero

Ayon sa ilang eksperto sa Linguistics o

ang pag-aaral ng lenggwahe sa halip na

makatulong ay nakakasama pa umano ang

pagpilit ng ganitong pagtuturo sa

pag-unlad sa kaalaman sa wika ng mga

bata ngayong buwan ng wika mga kapanayam

natin ang isa sa nagsusulong na mother

tong o wikang kinagisna ang gamitin sa

pagtuturo Siya ay si Dr Ricardo Nolasco

ng Department of Linguistics ng

University of the Philippines Dean

Magandang umaga Dr Nolasco Magandang

umaga SAO So ano bang ibig sabihin ng

mother tong um p pinagbasihan natin yung

definition ng mother tong ng UNESCO ito

yungang unang natutuhan ng bata pero

meron ding ibang definition gaya ng it

is the language one uses most no na at

kabisado ng bata it is also the language

one one identifies with no so mga KD ito

yyung mga definition ng mother tong Okay

ah para sa background lang ng mga

manonood sa ating bansa maraming mother

tong hindi tulad ng ibang bansa isa o

dalawa o minsan tatlo lang no sa atin

Ilan bang mother tong sa Pilipinas Il

mga 170 languages tayo 170 languages So

yung sinasabi ng Ilan na dialect

language talaga yon po yon Oo kasi

sinasabi yung dialect namin sa Cebu

that's Actually a language wi po yun

language yun yung pagmamaliit na

ginagawa Kaya tinatawag silang dialect

ngayon iwinawasto po natin yan at kahit

na yung dialect at saka language ang

number one na nagtuturo niyan Ay yung

Department of Education kaya ang unang

dapat magbago nito ay walang iba kung

hindi inde DepEd pamahala no So um ang

isusulong niyo na gamitin yung mga

mother tong halimbawa sa Cebu ah gamitin

yung Cebuano tama subuan Binisaya sa

pagtuturo ng foundational subjects

no from the very Beginning kailangan sa

pagtuturo ng reading arithmetic Math no

ay dapat nasa unang wika sa wika ng bata

kasi ang prinsipyo dito is we should

start from where the learners are and

From what they already know napaka-basic

nito hawi no pero bina violate ito ng

bilingual Education for so many years

napatunayan na ito sa lahat ng mga

research international at National man

pero hanggang sa Hanggang sa ngayon May

mga iba tayong mga Politiko na hindi pa

naliliwanagan dito sa research na ito

tagal-tagal pakipaliwanag lang po muna

ang bilingual policy ang sinasabi niyo

ano bang ibig sabihin ng bilingual

policy sa atin ang kasalukuyang

bilingual policy ay nagtataguyod ng

pagtuturo ng dalawang pangalawang wika

no two second languages as media of

instruction Bakit sin Saab

kasi yung Filipino at saka yung English

are not the mother tong of most

Filipinos yun sa Maynila ang ang

Filipino o Tagalog based ang Ang

tagal tama pero mga around 22% lang ng

buong populasyon yun lang yyung mother

tong most

of of the people no ay hindi po mother

tang ang tagalog Okay just as an example

ang sinas halimbawa marami sa atin mga

bisaya o mga Ilocano so halimbawa sa ang

sinasabi niyo dapat ang ang polisya yung

practice sa ating mga paaralan kung sa

Ilocos Norte yung M Ilocano yung

pagtuturo ang gagamitin sa pagtuturo ng

med of instruction foundational subject

na sinasabi niyo arithmetic kung kami

ang tatanungin gusto po naming gamitin

yung yung mother tong or yyung wikang

kinagisnan mula preschool hanggang at

least grade 6 sa buong elementary school

eh yung argumento naman na lalo tayo mah

ul dito sa Global economic development

lalo na yung ah Isang malaking employer

sa atin mga call center na talagang ah

Kailangang kailangan talaga gamitin

yyung English hindi kaya tayo lalong

mahuhuli dito sa ah itong global

economic competition na to maganda ng

tanong yan no pero ang punto yung

kasalukuyang educational system natin

cannot produce hindi nila malikha yung

mga kailangan na Merkado ng ating mga

call centers no Bakit because of of the

educational system kami naniniwala kung

itong patakaran na ito ay gagamitin no

ng second languages at sa konkretong

kalagayan ng Pilipinas Ito po ang

english at saka Filipino so h naman niyo

So ibig sabihin hindi niyo sinasabi na

huwag ng ituro ang Ingles at Filipino sa

mga estudyante sinasabi niyo lang ang

dapat ang medium of instruction yung

gagamiting wika sa mga paaralan sa ating

bansa Kung ano man yung native language

doon Totoo po maaring ifugaw ito o

Maranao

o

whatever ngayon ang ang sinasabi po

namin kaya mother tong based

multilingual Education iba po ito dun sa

patakarang ginawa noong mga 1950s at

saka 1960s yun po ay malabnaw na bersyon

ng paggamit ng unang wika ngayon yung

ating itinataguyod ngayon ay dapat pong

gamitin yung wika ng bata bilang medium

of instruction sa unang mga baitang ito

yung sinasabi namin elementary no pero

malakas po dapat yung pagtuturo natin ng

English at Filipino pagdating po ng

second ah ng second level or secondary

level Magaling na po yyung kanilang

kakayahan sa English at saka Filipino

para maging media of instruction na ito

okay so matagal na Ong bilingual policy

sa ating mga paaralan no and it's a

total failure mga ilang Dekada na po ito

ay nung 1970s po yan nung panahon ni

Marcos no G so in practice kahit saan ka

sa Pilipinas ang ginagamit ng mga wika

sa pagtuturo ay yung English at saka at

saka Pilipino at minuman pa yung mga

bata No ang na na gumagamit ng native

language local langage langage ang tutup

po niyan may isang magulang na so bawal

gamitin ang ang Cebuano sa sa paaralan

kahit sa Cebu kahit sa bayas Totoo po

yan tapos may mga English speaking zones

No one of the most unreasonable na na

iniisip pinagmamalaki pa nga ng ibang

Colleges na English speaking campus daw

sila English only campus daw sila Ayun

po ay violation ng karapatan ng mamamaya

na matuto sa sarili nilang wika ang toto

Ang totoo niyan hawi no tingnan po

nating English Proficiency no sa UP

binigyan po ng English Proficiency exam

yyung mga taga-up yyung undergrad at

saka yyung up law Alam mo kung ano yung

lumabas 67% lang yung English

Proficiency mga taga up na yan yung

undergrad yung mga up law kaya

nagrereklamo yung mga profesor nila na

napakasama ng English no 77% lamang yung

English Proficiency pero bakang ibig

kung mga high school students natin

nirereklamo po ng mga businessman natin

na yung mga bata No May tatlong pong

problema na makikita po natin sa ating

high school graduates one sila po ay

mahina sa communication skills in any

language no pangalawa kahit kahit native

language nila kahit native language nila

kasi hindi hindi nga tinuturo Hindi nga

tinuturo at hindi dini-develop yyung

in lang Tama po tapos poor reasoning

skills and poor problem solving skills

ito pong tatlo yyung inirereklamo ng mga

ng mga businessman ganun din yung mga

call center

pagung mga employer ang sinasabi niyo

resulta ito ng kasuluk koang bilingual

policy Paano niyo naman i-connect yung

yung ganyang klaseng kahinaan doon sa

bilingual policy baka mahina lang yung

education system in General hindi yung

hindi yung policy na yon hindi yung ang

hindi natin maihihiwalay yung patakaran

na iyon sa buong ano no sistema no kaya

kung kami ay

nag-speech Education hindi lang po yan

pagbabago ng wika kailangan may mga iba

pang mga pagbabagong magawa katulad ng

ating yung poor training ng mga teachers

no pag magsasagawa po tayo ng MTB mle

kailangan i-train po natin yung mga

teachers sa sa pagtuturo sa unang wika

Hindi po natin maaasahan na yung mga

teachers ay kusang magbabago lang yung

kanilang ah wika ikalawa wala pong mga

bai-baitang ngayon preschool muna Okay p

sa susunod so mga pilot programs ito sa

susunod grade 1 Sa susunod Grade 2 sa

susunod grade 3 So ang ginagawa po natin

meron tayong mga pioneer schools meron

meron na ngayon Meron na pong mga

pioneer schools trining na po sila

example po ng pioneer school ah ng

multilingual ang ang pinili na po nila

yung most of the the central schools no

halimbawa Central School doun sa Naga

ginagawa na nilang so nagtuturo sila

doon ng Bicol ginagamit ng bicolan Bicol

sa pagtuturo ng Math science ganon So

ano naging resulta ay mas mabilis ba

yung mas effective baung mas mabilis

yung pagkakaunawa pero yung testing kasi

natin gagawin pa nating Ano yan no ito

pong gagawin natin wala pang Wala pang

ebidensya wala pang test na ginagawa o

dahil kasi simula pa lang nung June pa

lang yun no June July August so Mga

tatlong buwan pero ang masasabi ko na

Yun nga yung English competition pati

China ah Ano na mabilis na yung

pag-aaral ng engles no hindi kayata

lalong kasi daming nagrereklamo ngayon

na bumaba raw yung ating English

sa global economy etc o pero That's not

the way to go kung ang gagawin mo

ibababad mo yan sa English from the very

Beginning no from from Kindergarten to
