Agosto 28, 2026 โ€” Ipinagdiwang ng Department of Languages, College of Arts and Social Sciences, ang Buwan ng Wikang Pambansa 2026 sa pamamagitan ng isang talakayan na pinamagatang โ€œWikang Filipino at AI: Pagpapanatili ng Wika sa Panahon ng Makabagong Teknolohiya,โ€ na ginanap sa Audio-Visual Room ng Integrated Science Laboratory Building.

Dinaluhan ang aktibidad ng 107 na mag-aaral mula sa ibaโ€™t ibang kolehiyo ng MSU-TCTO. Layunin nitong higit na mapalalim ang pagpapahalaga ng mga mag-aaral sa wikang Filipino at mahikayat ang responsable at wastong paggamit ng AI sa gitna ng mabilis nitong pag-unlad.

Nakaangkla ang talakayan sa tema ng Buwan ng Wikang Pambansa 2026 na โ€œWikang Filipino at AI: Kasangkapan sa Pananaliksik at Tulay sa Yaman ng Impormasyon.โ€ Tinalakay dito ang umuunlad na ugnayan ng wikang Filipino at AI, kabilang ang mga oportunidad at hamong kaakibat ng paggamit ng AI sa pagsulat, pagkuha ng impormasyon, at komunikasyon.

Bilang tagapagsalita, tampok si Dr. Charity Joy B. Hashim, Doktor sa Pilosopiya sa Araling Filipino, na may espesyalisasyon sa Wika, Kultura, at Midya. Tinalakay niya ang papel ng wikang Filipino sa panahon ng AI at hinikayat ang mga mag-aaral na gamitin ang mga umuusbong na teknolohiya nang mapanuri at responsable, habang pinangangalagaan ang halaga at integridad ng wikang Filipino.

Naging makabuluhang lunsaran ang aktibidad para sa pagninilay at talakayan hinggil sa kalagayan at gampanin ng wikang Filipino sa isang mundong patuloy na hinuhubog ng AI. Muli rin nitong pinagtibay ang pangako ng Department of Languages na itaguyod ang wikang Filipino habang nililinang sa mga mag-aaral ang kamalayan at mapanuring kasanayang kinakailangan upang responsableng makasabay sa mga umuusbong na teknolohiya.

Congratulations to Our Published Author from the Department of Languages!

The Department of Languages proudly congratulates Prof. Dr. Anabel B. Alagasi-Wellms on the publication of her research, "Enhancing Language Proficiency and Fostering Positive Cultural Attitude through Extended English Program," in the International Journal of Special Education, a Scopus-indexed (Q3) journal.

This study highlights the transformative role of the Extended English Program, supported by the English Access Microscholarship Program, in improving the English language proficiency of economically disadvantaged learners while promoting more positive cultural attitudes. The research demonstrated meaningful gains in students' language skills following intensive English instruction and enrichment activities.

Beyond measurable improvements in communication skills, the study emphasizes that sustained language interventions can broaden learners' perspectives, encourage intercultural understanding, and cultivate positive attitudes toward diverse cultures. It also underscores the value of comprehensive, long-term language programs in empowering students with the confidence and competence needed to thrive in academic, professional, and multicultural settings.
