The researcher used descriptive method to describe the existing folk healing narratives and contact method was used in gathering the data then followed the process of Grounded Theory Method. The collected narratives from the nine (9) folk healers were classified into four (4) categories namely; pagbulong sa paagi kan gabay (healing through the help of supernatural being), pagbulong sa paagi kan ritwal (healing through rituals), pagbulong sa paagi kan pagsanib (healing through possession), and pagbulong sa paagi kan namanang kaaraman (healing through acquired knowledge). From the categories of folk healing narratives, the researcher extracted the shared meanings that resulted to the four (4) stages of folk healing: pag-apod (calling), pag-isi (knowing), pag-umay (healing), and pag-arang (offering). This study concluded that for folk healers to perform folk healing, they combine their skills and gift of healing that was endowed to them by the Supreme Being. The extracted shared meanings reflect how people who adhere to folk healing view the world; this is because of their similarities in experiences. Shared meanings which are present in these modern times can be traced back from the practices and beliefs of the ancient Bikolanos reflected in the Bikol literature. This study recommends the future researchers to conduct similar studies specifically in the shared meanings and practices in the other aspects of the society

Abstract

The lack of students’ ability to compose expository text is still found in many mainstream classrooms. The inability may be caused by many factors such as the complexity of the text itself, the texts in the textbook which are often not representative enough to be the model texts, and teachers’ lack of awareness of teaching genre. This study intends to investigate the gaps between the model (expert) and students’ texts at genre level and register level based on SFL perspectives. To serve the aims, this study employed case study design in attempt to get clear description from the case investigated. The data gathered from the analysis focusing on genre level and register level were presented in narrative form and interpreted descriptively. The finding showed that at genre level the student’s text did not include the restatement of thesis which is different from the expert’s text. Meanwhile, at register level, the student’s text appears to have lack of cohesive devices and other mode choices (e.g. lack of marked theme, connectives) which lead into the lack of texture of the text. Careful design of activities in each curriculum cycle and explicit teaching of both schematic structures and registers of expository are the implications suggested by this study.
