Abstract

The UP Open University online course “Filipiniana Online” is a course offered online that aims to build a sense of Filipino-hood and a concept of nation. The online course is interactive and is facilitated for each of the four modules: Philippine Theater, Literature, Art and Popular Culture, and Philippine Culture and History.

To aid the course, there is the Filipiniana Reader, a printed anthology of critical essays on Philippine theater, art, literature, and popular culture, as well as a Filipiniana CD containing digital versions of artworks. Filipiniana Online is also hyperlinked to various websites on Philippine culture and history.
