Mini task

“Meeting de Avance”

Experiencing a Miting de Avance allows learners to engage directly with the democratic
process, enhance civic awareness, and foster critical thinking on political and moral issues of our
country. By witnessing firsthand how candidates articulate their platforms, respond to inquiries,
and embody ethical and moral principles, learners can reflect on their beliefs and the complexities
of governance. This engagement empowers them to become informed citizens. It encourages
discussions about political decisions on social justice and community welfare, ultimately shaping
the learner's understanding of personal and collective responsibility in a democratic society.

Context:
For the activity, your role is a candidate running for the position of City Mayor in Baguio;
your task is to communicate and convince the audience (your classmates) that you are the better
choice. Therefore, focus on developing a clear and compelling platform that addresses community
concerns, builds rapport and trust, and effectively communicates your vision through public
speaking engagements and question and answer. Additionally, your groupmates will serve as
your campaign team or campaign associate to help you strategize and reach your audience.
