Do you choose a healthy piece of fruit, or do you head straight for the chocolate? It turns out that well before we consciously decide what we're going to eat, our brain has already weighed up our choices — and in a fraction of a second. Now a new study shows which food attributes are processed by our brain faster than others, and how this might influence our dietary decisions.

Habi HourEpisode 19: Learning with TikTokTikTok is one of the most popular social media platforms in the world. With most of our learners as a captive audience, educators have turned to the app to create learning content and connect with their learners. In this episode of Habi Hour, we chat with Alyssa, a school teacher, and Patrick, an instructional designer, on the impact of TikTok on learning and creativity, and explore ways that we can harness the app for our teaching practice.

Habi HourEpisode 18: Empowering Young AdvocatesIn this episode of our Turo-Turo Serye, we listen to Bea, Ola, and Emil share their stories on empowering young advocates through learning experiences. As the Philippines celebrates its 123rd Independence Day this June 12, let’s reflect on the different social issues that we are facing as a community, and see how each one of us (not just Social Studies teachers!) can design learning experiences for our students, colleagues, families, and friends that awaken critical and creative citizenship.
