Activity 4.1:
You shall go to your respective groups. There should only be three members in every group. You shall think of
various contexts (i.e. human situations, conditions, events, phenomena) happening in the international, national, and
regional settings. To facilitate your discussion, you will use the PESTLE Approach (Political-Economic-Social-
Technological-Legal-Educational Approach). The group output is a list of contexts.

        We are affected by living our way of life in which each context can affect the development of character and
    ideals of the person.
    Given these contexts as human realities, what can we say about human culture?
       It is continue developing but it cannot be disputed that some will go against the idea of others success.
    What are the implications of these contexts and cultures relative to human action?
       It will build the moral integrity, honesty, responsibility and decision making of human being.
    What are the problems encountered given these contexts, cultures, and human actions?
    What are the issues coming from these contexts, cultures, and actions?
    Are there ethical issues arising from all these?
