something that can create value. After completing the previous module, it is hope
that the lessons being discussed brought a huge impact to you as a learner in order

What Is It
2
Transnational Migration and Overseas Filipino Workers
Transnational migrants are those persons who having migrated from one
nation-state to another, live their lives across borders, participating simultaneously in
social relations that embed them in more than one nation-state.
Overseas Filipino Worker is a person of Filipino origin who lives and works
outside of the Philippines. This term applies to Filipinos who are out of the country
indefinitely as citizens or as permanent residents of a different country and to those
Filipino citizens who are abroad for a limited, definite period as workers or as
students. They are called Bagong Bayani ng Bayan.
New media. From media to mass media, to electronic media, and now to the
so-called new media. Technology has a vast influence on our way of living; it also
widens our social circle. New media is a generic term for the many different forms of
electronic communication that are made possible through the use of computer
technology.
Social networking is a more casual form of social media. The most common
example is Facebook. Social networking is just one of the different types of social
media. Others include forums, microblogging, bookmarking, video sites and search
engines.

Environmentalism is a social movement whose advocacies are in line with
concerns for the environment – its protection and improvement; feminism is for the
women’s liberation movement. It is a feminist movement which is a series of political
campaigns to push for reforms on issues involving women such as reproductive
health, domestic violence, fair labor practices, political suffrage and sexual
harassment.

What I Can Do
Activity 5: TAKE CARE OF THE ENVIRONMENT
In times of crisis, food is our utmost essential need. Considering the many
challenges faced by our families this time, you can always help them in your own
little ways. How? Cultivate your vacant lot into a vegetable garden. If you are living
in an urban community, make an innovation by cultivating an urban garden using
recyclable materials as your pots/plots. In this way, you do your share to help your
family and you do your share in taking care of the environment.
SUMMARY

perceive relevant changes in the environment they are in, they readily adapt
their behaviour to meet these new challenges for their own benefit.
