Task-based learning, as part of the framework makes the students realize that learning happens more meaningfully when they immerse themselves, individually or collaboratively, in varied tasks prepared for them as scaf f olds toward constructing new perspectives and strategies to survive in the global arena. All these are focused on the learners’ development of knowledge and skills in a gradual pace until they reach independent learning or transfer of skills. Such activities, including grammar-related ones, are meant to create opportunities for the learners to become communicatively competent, ‘glocal’ individuals—local in concerns but global in visions and perspectives. Moreover, the activities are mapped out aligned to the standards set by the K to 12 curriculum.

Dr. Ernesto Y. Sibal was one of the few Filipinos in academic publishing who can irrefutably lay claim to these three titles—Patriot, Pioneer and Innovator. A staunch patriot, Dr. Sibal fiercely advocated the vision of designating Filipino-authored books for young Filipino learners. This vision was enabled by the establishment of Alemar’s Bookstore in 1958, and through the foresight and drive of Alegria Rodriguez, who shared in the vision of her husband, she helped galvanize then fledgling Alemar's Bookstore as the place to go for textbooks and school needs, propelling it to become the first established bookstore chain in the country.
