Abstract

Golden apple snail (Pomacea canaliculata L.) is considered as a notorious pest in the rice fields along with different agricultural countries including the Philippines. This study was conducted to develop a fermented golden apple snail (FGAS) nutrient solution and investigate its effects on the growth of green loose-leaf Batavia lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) under a Kratky hydroponic method. Green-loose leaf in grand rapid variety were used as the test plant to assess the effectiveness of the five treatments in the study: T1-SNAP solution, T2-FGAS, T3-double strength FGAS, T4-molasses, and T5-water. Due to its better suitability for trials carried out inside a screenhouse system, complete randomized design was used in the study. Moreover, the pH, electric conductivity (EC) and temperature of the treatments were measured as well as relative humidity and temperature within the screenhouse as indicators of its physicochemical characteristics. The developed FGAS has a 1:1:1 ratio composed of the meat of the P. canaliculata, food-grade molasses, and water. The result indicated that the lettuces which grew on T2-FGAS are comparable with the lettuces on the positive control. T1-SNAP solution in terms of plant height, number of leaves, length and width of the biggest leaf, fresh weight, and root length. However, lettuces on T2-FGAS displayed better leaf coloration, dry weight, and width of the biggest lettuce leaf than T1-SNAP. Additionally, L. sativa plants cultivated in T3-double strength FGAS produced results that were comparable to those obtained with negative treatments T4-molasses and T5-water. The study further revealed that the developed FGAS can probably be used as hydroponic nutrient solution by plant growers. The researchers recommend microbiological water analysis and lettuce contents analysis for further study.

Abstract

This study explored the experiences and teaching competencies of non-education science teachers in the Division of Zambales before and during the pandemic to develop a training model suited for effective science instruction. A mixed-method sequential explanatory design was employed, involving 74 non-education science teachers and 36 supervisors. Quantitative data were collected and analyzed first, followed by qualitative data to deepen understanding of the results. Findings revealed that while teachers demonstrated general proficiency in curriculum planning, and instruction, assessment remained their weakest area. Challenges intensified during the pandemic, particularly in curriculum planning and assessment. Teachers faced difficulties in content depth, lesson planning, evaluation tools, and adapting instruction to student needs. Coping strategies were largely intrapersonal, including self-reliance, strategic planning, and emotional regulation, with limited reliance on external support. The study led to the development of the ELEVATE Teacher Training Model, a professional development framework with seven components: Enrich, builds content and planning skills; Leverage, promotes active learning and peer support; Equip, strengthens assessment skills; Validate, aligns strategies with learner traits; Adapt, encourages flexible, data-driven teaching; Transform, integrates ICT and reshapes negative coping; and Empower, supports continuous growth and leadership. The model provides a practical basis for training programs tailored to non-education science teachers. It provides a practical foundation for training programs tailored to non-education science teachers. Future research should assess its implementation, effectiveness, and long-term impact on teaching practices especially for non-education major teachers.
