DOST to sell TABLET PCs for students at affordable price

From the old technology down to the newest technology are so amazing in our country now. According to Alexander Villafania (2010) "Department of Science Technology (DOST) is working to a project to provide low cost, for elementary students". The said project is to improve more educational system towards to the students like the elementary to the college.
DOST's Science and Education Institute (SEI) has been developing software-based curriculum in mathematics and science, which could be modified and placed into the tablet PCs.
Tablet PCs for education has already been in use in many countries, particular;y in USA, Canada, Germany, Thailand, among others. Most of tablet PCs are still branded models sold by commercial computer manufacturers.
For me i think that DOST has the right to have a Tablet PCs project, because for me that PCs are useable to the student for their school to make them not hustle to carry their bags full of books and notebooks.

Now a days internet is very known to us. Not only in the Philippines internet was known. Even young people like students are addicted to the internet.

One day news spread about the Facebook shutdown and many people react for this rumors because some of us Facebook for them are daily routine to log in.
For me, my reaction for this shutting Facebook is not agree to discard, because many to us says that Facebook is the most visiting site. And many to us in Facebook we can see those relatives far to us by viewing their pictures and videos in their profile. In Facebook also we can have many friends to tell some problems and they also give you an advise what to do.And most of all Facebook for me is the one of my home to visit my profile, to upload my pictures and to have many more friends. So stop that rumors about Facebook shutting down.
