Abstract

Reading is regarded as a vital skill in attaining proficiency and widening knowledge in different subjects. The research aimed to establish the relationship of reading comprehension to academic performance in Mathematics. The respondents were the freshmen students in specified Math in the Modern World course. This study employed descriptive quantitative design. A researcher-made instrument which underwent experts’ validation and reliability test was used in determining the comprehension level in reading of the respondents. The results specified that positive correlation of reading comprehension and academic performance exists. Based on the results, there exists a highly significant difference between the reading comprehension level of the participants and their academic performance in their math courses. Moreover, with the generated value of .298, it can be inferred that that there is a positive relationship between the variables. This means if one variable increases the other variable moderately increases.

Abstract

English is a critical subject in the Philippines; teachers themselves are also required to pass the English Proficiency Test before practic-ing in public schools. However, there has been a gradual decline in English language proficiency among Filipinos, as evidenced by vari-ous assessments. The study aims to explore the English proficiency of college students at the university in relation to the course Purpos-ive Communication which sought to answer the following ques-tions:1) What is the academic performance in Purposive Communi-cation course of the respondents?; 2) What are the English profi-ciency level test results of the respondents? 3) Is there a significant relationship between the general weighted average in the Purposive Communication course of the respondents and the English profi-ciency level test results of the respondents? The researchers utilized a correlational research design for the study to measure the rela-tionship between independent and dependent variables; it deter-mined that a correlational design was appropriate and beneficial. This phase statistical insights into the relationship between aca-demic performance and English proficiency. The findings contribut-ed to theory generation by shedding light on the role of specific col-lege courses in shaping English proficiency and informing educa-tional policies aimed at enhancing language proficiency among fu-ture teachers.

Abstract

This research investigates the functional literacy levels of barangay officials in selected agricultural communities within Guagua, Pampanga, aiming to design an extension program that improves governance effectiveness. Employing a quantitative descriptive design, the study utilizes a modified DepEd-ALS functional literacy test to evaluate reading, writing, and numeracy competencies among 30 elected officials across Ascomo, Pulungmasle, and Maquiapo. The findings reveal a significant gap between academic qualifications and practical literacy skills, with over 36% of respondents classified at the beginning literacy level. This underscores the need for targeted interventions, especially in remote areas with limited access to education. The study contextualizes functional literacy as a pivotal element for public service delivery, transparency, and civic engagement. Results show that while 80% of respondents attained college education, their functional abilities in written communication, budgeting, and digital tasks vary significantly. The proposed extension program is a six-week, module-based training covering reading, writing, numeracy, communication, and digital literacy. Recommendations include integrating technological tools, routine assessments, and peer mentorship to sustain improvements. Ultimately, enhancing functional literacy is framed not just as a personal upgrade for officials, but as a foundational strategy for community empowerment, responsive governance, and sustainable development.
