Abstract

Teachers must be relevant in their teaching style to respond effectively to the challenges brought about by environmental changes. This study measured how well the teachers could utilize various styles and methods to create meaningful teaching-learning experiences. This study determined the gap between the full use of styles, methods, and the current practices in the university in Cebu City to bridge the current practices with what is perceived to be ideal. The research design made use of the quantitative method. Using a stratified sampling technique, the data were collected from 2,683 respondents through questionnaires for teaching styles and teaching performance. The respondents came in three clusters: namely, teachers, students, and administrators in six colleges. Based on the findings, the various teaching styles ranged from being practiced often to being always practiced, and their teaching performance ranged from very good to excellent. A seminar-workshop was proposed to improve the areas of teaching styles and teaching performance with the lowest ratings. In the seminar, teachers will be introduced to the core principles related to the topics and will engage in activities designed for principle integration in actual classroom situations. Furthermore, periodic 360-degree performance evaluations shall be conducted to ensure adherence and compliance with the agreed core principles.

Abstract

This study examines the relationship between fiscal transparency and disbursement efficiency in a local government unit (LGU) in Cebu, Philippines, using publicly available 2024 fiscal data. Transparency is defined as the percentage of actual quarterly disbursement relative to the expected amount—25% of the annual budget per quarter—while efficiency measures the proportion of funds utilized. Both variables are derived from disbursement percentages, contributing to the strong positive correlation and unusually high regression coefficients observed. Linear regression analyses across four quarters reveal a consistent, statistically significant positive relationship between transparency and efficiency. Unstandardized coefficients (B) rise from 0.25 in Quarter 1 to 0.57 in Quarter 4, with Quarter 4 showing the highest standardized beta (β = 10.19, R² = 0.985). These results indicate that transparency increasingly influences efficiency as fiscal pressures mount toward year-end. The findings affirm transparency as a critical governance tool that aligns planned and actual disbursements to improve budget execution. Practically, enhanced transparency fosters accountability, strengthens fiscal discipline, and supports evidence-based resource allocation, which are vital for effective LGU policy and responsive public service delivery. However, the close operational linkage between transparency and efficiency warrants cautious interpretation of coefficient magnitudes. The study recommends performance-informed budgeting, improved monitoring, and inter-agency coordination to balance transparency with execution flexibility, optimizing resource use and governance outcomes in decentralized fiscal systems.

Abstract

This study investigated whether stress coping skills predict academic performance among university students. Using data from 348 participants, a simple linear regression analysis was conducted. The results showed that stress coping significantly predicted academic performance, with the model explaining 12.4% of the variance (R² = .124). The overall regression was statistically significant, F(1, 346) = 49.00, p < .00001. The coefficient for stress coping was positive and significant (β = 0.184, SE = 0.026, t = 7.00, p < .00001), indicating that for each one-unit increase in coping ability, academic performance increased by 0.184 units on average. The intercept was also significant (β = 2.936, SE = 0.090, t = 32.62, p < .00001), representing the expected academic performance score when coping is at its average level. These findings suggest a meaningful positive relationship between students’ ability to manage stress and their academic outcomes. Students who use effective coping strategies, such as emotional regulation and proactive problem-solving, tend to perform better academically.

Abstract

TikTok has transformed Generation Z’s consumer behavior through algorithm-driven content, viral trends, and influencer impact. This study examined TikTok’s influence on 345 university students in Cebu City, assessing exposure (time spent, frequency, user-generated content influence, engagement) and consumer behavior (purchase frequency, intention, brand loyalty, impulse buying). Due to significant non-normality confirmed by Shapiro-Wilk tests, Spearman’s rho was used to analyze relationships. Results revealed a significant positive correlation between TikTok exposure and buying behavior (ρ = 0.480, p < .001), with user-generated content exerting the strongest effect (ρ = 0.517). Impulse buying was notably influenced (ρ = 0.458), especially in fashion and personal care. Findings suggest marketers should leverage authentic peer content and influencer partnerships to engage Gen Z and build brand loyalty, while educators should promote digital literacy to help students critically assess content and control impulse purchases. TikTok serves as both an entertainment platform and a powerful marketing tool, highlighting the need for ethical marketing and informed consumer awareness.
