Abstract

he study aimed to evaluate students' preparation for physical activity in health and fitness courses at Laguna State Polytechnic University (LSPU) campuses. A descriptive correlational methodology was used in the study, which included 920 students and 48 faculty members. The findings demonstrate that PATHFIT courses are generally and substantially prepared at all LSPU campuses. The range of mean scores for each indicator demonstrates a high level of readiness, and given the modest standard deviation, readiness levels across several campuses may be constant. The courses specifically show how to prepare for streamlining curricular materials, objectives, methods, staffing policies, workforce management, alternative programs, physical education curriculum, laboratories, and equipment. These places a strong basis and foundation for the implementation of PATHFIT courses and are much ready. ANOVA results for the PATHFIT course implementation level throughout LSPU campuses, regarding the availability of facilities and resources, faculty qualification, and support system, revealed PATHFIT course implementation levels varied significantly among LSPU campuses. However, no appreciable differences across LSPU campuses' implementation levels of PATHFIT courses regarding the availability of facilities and resources and evaluation and monitoring attributable to the between-groups variation. In summary, regression analysis shows there are no appreciable differences between campuses regarding achieving goals and objectives, assessment and monitoring, or overall implementation level, and there are appreciable variations in the availability of facilities and resources, faculty credentials, and support systems. These results show how PATHFIT courses must be implemented consistently and successfully throughout LSPU to solve the inequalities in resources and qualifications between campuses. The study recommends ongoing promotion and improvement of health and fitness programs at LSPU campuses, as well as targeted interventions to enhance preparation levels and foster a culture of physical activity. Future research can explore innovative strategies to support a physically active lifestyle and contribute to overall well-being within the university community.

Abstract

This research aimed to identify the key qualities of high-achieving students to motivate and guide those not meeting their potential to adopt successful strategies and improve their academic results. Through the use of qualitative research methods and purposeful sampling, ten second-year college students from Laguna State Polytechnic University-San Pablo City Campus were selected for this study. Analysis of common themes identified ten key factors that contribute to academic success. These include developing strong reading habits, actively engaging in classroom instruction, effective time management, organized study materials, regular review of learned content, utilizing technology for learning enhancement, a supportive school environment, inspirational role models, and a strong support system involving parents and teachers. All individuals involved in a child’s education must understand and promote these attributes to optimize their learning experience, leading to tangible achievements in their academic performance. However, since this case study was conducted at a single school, it is not representative of all schools nationwide and cannot be generalized to the entire population. However, as it was conducted in a real-life setting, it is reasonable to draw pedagogical implications from these findings, as they offer insights into the characteristics of high-performing students.
