Keep Your House In Perfect Order With With These Upgraded Home Appliances from Samsung

 



With more time spent inside the home nowadays, maintaining clean and orderly home spaces have become important. Most everyday activities are now done indoors, such as exercising and working. Having piles  of dirty clothes or a cluttered kitchen while on work or play can be distracting. 


Additionally, hectic work-from-home schedules usually take time away from doing chores. By upgrading to more useful and trusted home appliances, however, maintaining cleanliness can be done efficiently. Achieve a house in perfect order with a few changes featuring some innovative appliances from Samsung Digital Appliances.


Cook in a kitchen equipped with the right refrigerator

In the kitchen, the refrigerator usually gets messy and cramped. With leftovers and stocked food stacking up inside as weeks pass, a bigger and a more organized space is definitely needed.

The French Door Refrigerator features a Food Showcase Door, which is “a fridge within a fridge” that allows for food to be organized efficiently. This feature also lets family members quickly find their favorite  food, drinks, or sauces. 


And with its FlexZone feature, different food and drinks are stored at their optimal temperature, keeping them fresh and tasty longer. Its four pre-set temperature settings for fridge, chilling, soft freeze, and freezing, are ideal for preserving meat and fish, storing deli foods, chilling wine, and cooling beverages.


Relax in a cozy bedroom by routinely tidying up

Keeping the house in perfect order also includes the bedroom, where others spend most of their time. Having a cozy and tidy bedroom where people can lounge and sleep is very important.


To achieve this, one can routinely clean the room and allot a day to organize clutter that has accumulated throughout the week, to change sheets, or just to generally clean the room. It’s very easy to feel relaxed in a bedroom that feels cozy and comfortable. When a routine is in motion, this should be no problem.


Get thoroughly cleaned clothes using an efficient  washing machine

Each family member has clothes with different fabrics and colors that need to be cleaned in different ways at home, which makes laundry day a bit of a heavy chore.



With Samsung’s Washer Dryer Combo, the work will definitely be a lot lighter. Its AirWash  technology deodorizes and sanitizes not only clothes but also linens, so they always smell fresh. Using just super-hot air, unpleasant odors, bacteria, and allergens are removed without boiling or using chemicals, making it great at intensive stain removal.


On the other hand, its Bubble Soak technology thoroughly soaks clothes in bubbles, so even a variety of stubborn stains are loosened and removed effectively.


Perfectly sanitized and cleaned clothes will definitely add to the whole order of a home.


Little upgrades, such as getting a routine in place, are equally important as investing in trusty new appliances; these will surely keep a house in perfect order. As more and more time is spent at home, a change here and there will create significant differences.


With Samsung Home Upgrade Deals, enjoy a safer and healthier space for the year ahead with up to 25% on selected appliances. Promo runs until March 31, 2021.

Globe paves way for Our Lady of Manaoag devotees to continue pilgrimage, business online

The Our Lady of Manaoag church in Pangasinan has welcomed hundreds of thousands of devotees. As the pandemic restricted movement decreasing the number of visitors on-site, Globe has paved the way for devotees and vendors in the area to continue their devotions and attend masses online, thanks to improved internet connectivity.

 

The telco continues to upgrade its sites and improve its network infrastructure to fulfill its commitment to have a 4G LTE, 5G-ready network.

 



“Nakakatulong -- malakas ang naitutulong ng cell site kasi kahit nasaan ka, pwede kang mag manood, mag-misa kahit saan). (It helps -- a cell site strongly helps because wherever you are, you may watch online masses anywhere),” said Dolores Villanueva, a Manaoag devotee and vendor, who is able to attend online masses even while watching over her shop.

 

Globe’s aggressive network expansion, which included the upgrading of 10,876 sites to 4G/LTE, has significantly improved the Philippines’ 4G experience even during peak hours. This was evident in a report of international mobile analytics firm Opensignal covering August to October 2020*, which showed the Globe network’s significant improvements in 4G Download Speeds, 4G Latency Experience and 4G Video Experience.

 

In terms of 4G Download Speeds, Opensignal found that Globe peaks at over 19 mbps with average 4G Download Speeds observed by users over the course of the day being more than sufficient for web browsing and apps usage. For Latency Experience, Globe is likewise inching closer to competition with its best score peaking at a low of 36ms (lower score is better) within the day. According to the report, Latency “is a measure of the time it takes for data packets to travel across the network between a user’s mobile phone and the servers that host mobile apps and websites.”

 

Globe’s 4G Video Experience is likewise pulling up consistently with a maximum score of 50. 4G Video Experience measures network quality for streaming HD or SD videos on platforms like Youtube and other video on demand apps.

 

“Diretso ‘yung panonood ko. Umpisa hanggang sa matapos ang misa. (I can watch straight, from the start until the end of the mass),” added Villanueva.

 

Globe strongly supports the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, particularly UN SDG No. 9 which highlights the roles of infrastructure and innovation as crucial drivers of economic growth and development. Globe is committed to upholding the 10 United Nations Global Compact principles and 10 UN SDGs.

Globe builds teacher skills on early language literacy

Globe has launched another professional development training for teachers now focusing on early language literacy. Recognized by the Department of Education National Educators Academy of the Philippines, (DepED - NEAP)  this series of webinars coaches educators to effectively help very young students develop their communication skills through blended learning. This is in line with the DepEd campaign to improve teacher productivity and student performance.  


The training is led by Teach for the Philippines (TFP) under the banner of Globe’s Global Filipino Teachers (GFT) program featuring webinars that promote 21st century learning and digital resources for teachers. TFP is an award-winning non-stock, non-profit organization that works to provide Filipino children with inclusive, relevant, and excellent education.


Early language literacy was identified as a key topic needed by Grades 1 to 3 teachers in the new normal, for students ages 5 to 8 years old.  The GFT sessions are recognized by DepEd’s National Educators Academy of the Philippines (NEAP),  ensuring that all attendees are able to obtain the knowledge and skills that are vital in the current situation. 


“Globe supports DepEd’s thrust to provide learning continuity among public school students. We continue to roll-out programs through various alternative delivery modes and provide teachers and school leaders with the necessary knowledge, skills, and attitudes to overcome the challenges posed by an unprecedented school year mired by a global pandemic,” said Yoly Crisanto, Globe’s Chief Sustainability Officer and SVP for Corporate Communications.


“Reading is a foundational skill that opens up possibilities for our children. When our students are able to read, they can continue to learn, grow, and eventually, take the necessary steps to improve their lives, as well as those around them. This is our end goal for the Early Language Literacy webinar series with Globe and the National Educators’ Academy of the Philippines (NEAP),” shared Angel Ramos, Teach for the Philippines’ Marketing & Events Director. 


The GFT Early Language Literacy Series includes lessons on teaching pre-reading skills, introducing sound and print, decoding and sight reading, and planning a reading program.  These sessions aim to help children build a base for reading through songs, story-telling, conversations, and play.


COVID-19  has forced the entire country to adapt to new ways of reaching and teaching students at home. In response to this challenge, DepEd revised its learning standards for students to focus on the most essential learning competencies (MELCs). DepEd also shifted to flexible learning delivery options including primarily printed modules to be distributed to students’ homes and supplemented with TV, radio, and/or online distance learning.


Globe helps the education sector through training, connectivity, learning tools, and materials.  The company is committed to supporting the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals including UN SDG No. 4 on Quality Education and UN SDG No. 17 on Partnerships for the Goals.
