This document is a poem addressed to the Superintendent of Schools, Priscilla De Sagun, encouraging her to adopt learner-centered teaching practices. It urges her to move away from traditional teacher-centered and chalk-and-talk methods, and to instead utilize more interactive technologies, current events, games and other engaging activities. It calls on her to train other teachers in learner-centered practices and to document best practices to identify the best programs. The goal is to improve education in Muntinlupa by fighting issues like poverty, illiteracy and dropout rates through these learner-centered reforms.
