Abstract

This position paper looks at the moral dilemma in the school about students’ perceived success and teachers' and principals’ qualifications. The dilemma arises when an unlicensed teacher and non-principal test passer may lower the standard or level up the standard. This paper identified existing tensions and potential solutions to help mitigate conflict of interest scenarios. The paper begins with an overview of existing regulations and guidelines. It then discussed areas that were observed to have issues and problems including hiring staff, promoting employees, and ethics training programs. Finally, this paper recommended strategies for managing conflicts that are deemed necessary to address this ever-growing problem. The goal is to provide a comprehensive set of best practices that can be incorporated into organizations to ensure that hiring and promotion processes can lead to greater progress in the school and the community.

Abstract

This paper seeks to examine scientific literacy in the Philippines. This paper further explores the current state of scientific literacy in the Philippines by conducting a commentary literature review of existing literature from both local and international sources. It aims to develop a better understanding of how individuals inside the country view science, how the media interacts with science-related topics, and if any indicators are pointing to a lack of overall scientific education among younger generations. The view of this paper is that there is an utmost need for the improvement of scientific literacy among the people. There should be a comprehensive, transdisciplinary, and multilateral plan to combat fake news. Schools should focus on critical thinking skills. The anti-fake news ordinances of different localities should be strengthened and implemented properly. Media outlets should add more content that fosters scientific literacy and remove posts that are fake news in nature. Finally, the home should be the sanctum of truth and honesty.
