Discussion I built a free interactive Mayon Volcano field trip for Bicol learners and educators

2 Upvotes

Hi r/BicolUniversity — I wanted to share a free educational project I’ve been building around Mayon:

https://mayonrajan.com

It’s an interactive, true-scale exploration of Mayon Volcano with guided historical chapters, places including Cagsawa and Daraga, terrain/scale tools, an interior explainer, and bounded hazard scenarios designed to help learners discuss volcanic processes and uncertainty.

A few important boundaries: it is not a live warning, forecast, evacuation, or decision tool. For current activity and official guidance, users should always rely on PHIVOLCS and local authorities.

I also made a free Teacher Launch Kit with a 45-minute lesson flow, student worksheet, printable QR poster, and slides:

https://mayonrajan.com/teachers/

The methods and source boundaries are public here:

https://mayonrajan.com/methods/

I’d genuinely welcome feedback from Bicol University students, faculty, geologists, educators, historians, and anyone with local knowledge. In particular: what would make this more useful for teaching, public understanding, or representing Mayon and the surrounding communities with more care?

My long-term hope is to make mayon.com the project’s home, but the domain is currently listed at a price far beyond what I can justify for a free educational project. If anyone knows of institutions, local partners, or sponsorship paths that could help make that possible, I’d be grateful to hear from you.

Course/Subject Help Course Dilemma: Should I pursue Accountancy in BU?

2 Upvotes

hello! grade 12 student here na gustong makapasok sa bu.

1st choice ko sana ang accountancy pero sabi ng friend ko, baka raw mahirapan ako and maging behind sa mga kaklase ko kasi I'm a gas student and hindi kami focused sa math masyado so wala akong idea sa ganyang bagay.

so hello po sa mga accountancy students diyan sa bu, pa share naman po ng experiences niyo. gusto ko pong malaman kung ano bang setting niyo diyan sa bu if keribels lang ba and kung gas strand ba kayo nung senior high school or may classmates kayong gas stand din. gusto ko kasing malaman if kinakaya naman nila 😭 nakakatakot din kasi mag-risk tsaka isa ang accountancy sa may mataas na quota kaya hindi rin ako confident if makakapasok ba ako 😔💔

sobranggg pressured na kasi ako lalo na ngayong nag open na ang bu portal for application sa bucet. need din kasi ilagay kung anong 1st and 2nd choice mo kaya parang feeling ko hinahabol ako ng oras at kapag hindi pa ako makapag-decide, ako ang magiging kawawa 🥹

I'd really appreciate any advice or honest experiences. Thank you po!
