Your online vehicle for Filipino American curriculum
Introduction

The jeepney has emerged as the most popular means of mass transportation in the Philippines. Refurbished from World War II military jeeps, these colorful vehicles have become a symbol of the vibrant history and culture of Filipinos.

This site serves as your online vehicle to Filipino American curriculum. An online community forum is created for teachers and students to initiate dialogue. Click on the teacher button to "gossip" with other educators across the nation in our "Tsismis.edu:" forum. Teachers can find, upload, and comment on Filipino American curricular resources. Click on the student button to explore activities in "My Balangay Journal" that connects learning to the past, to the present, and to one another.

Welcome to Our Online Community
A major goal of this venture is to integrate curriculum, culture, and technology to educate the public about Filipino American history, culture, and social issues. In order to encourage teachers, parents, and students to engage in conversations about Filipinos and education, we’ve created multiple spaces for learning, sharing, and networking. It is our hope that the topic of Filipinos, curriculum, and education becomes commonplace in children’s homes, schools, and communities across the nation. So jump aboard your “Filipino school bus” to tsismis and spread the word!
