Communication for Society: Purposive Communication
Communication for Society: Purposive Communication is a tertiary-level textbook for the General Education course Purposive Communication, as required by the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) Memorandum Order No. 20, series of 2013 of the Republic of the Philippines. Three college courses from the University of the Philippines—English 10 (Freshman English), English 30 (English for the Professions), and Communication 3 (Oral Communication)—were combined into one college freshman English course, now known as Purposive Communication. The course is both pragmatic and aspirational; it helps students use their English language skills to gain and share knowledge and insights with different discourse communities in the Philippines, as well as to create and critique knowledge for the good of Philippine society.
