Abstract

This systematic literature review examines the effectiveness of Grammarly as an Automated Writing Evaluation (AWE) tool for improving the writing skills of English as a Second Language (ESL) and English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students. Drawing on 10 studies published between 2018 and 2024, the review assesses Grammarly’s key features, benefits, and limitations. Results show that Grammarly significantly reduces grammatical errors, enhances students’ writing confidence, and fosters autonomous learning. However, challenges such as over-reliance on the tool and its limited capacity to provide comprehensive feedback on higher-order writing skills remain. The review underscores the need for further research into Grammarly’s long-term effects on writing development, particularly its efficacy across various academic disciplines and contexts.

Abstract

The study aimed to enhance criminology students’ mathematics problem-solving abilities using a criminology-based word problem strategy (CBWPS) and to explore their experiences and coping mech-anisms with this approach. Employing a mixed-method explanatory sequential design, the quantitative phase utilized a quasi-experimental one-group pretest-posttest framework with 38 partici-pants, while the qualitative phase involved phenomenological in-depth interviews with 10 students. Results revealed a significant im-provement in students' problem-solving skills, with a marked in-crease in post-test scores compared to pre-test results (mean gain: 8.11, p<0.05). The intervention fostered critical thinking and en-gagement by contextualizing mathematical concepts in criminology scenarios, making learning more relevant. However, students faced challenges such as unfamiliar terminologies and difficulties with complex calculations. They coped by analyzing problems carefully and drawing motivation from their aspirations. The study recommends training mathematics educators in implementing CBWPS and inte-grating such strategies into criminology curricula to enhance analyti-cal skills and professional preparedness.

Abstract

Calculus is a foundational discipline critical for both academic and professional growth. This study, conducted at a state college in Davao de Oro, Philippines, sought to develop Strategic Intervention Materials (SIMs) to address key challenges in Calculus I. Utilizing a developmental research design, the study followed a modified ADD model comprising three stages: analysis, design, and development. Participants included 44 prospective mathematics teachers, selected through random sampling, and five experts in mathematics education and instructional material development. Data collection involved a survey to identify the least mastered topics and validation sheets. The study identified specific areas of difficulty, including Maxima and Minima, Derivatives of Logarithmic and Exponential Functions, Functions with Arguments Approaching Infinity, Derivatives of Inverse Trigonometric Functions, Antiderivatives of Algebraic Functions, and the Constant of Integration. The resulting SIMs were evaluated and demonstrated outstanding content validity, face validity, clarity of presentation, logical organization, accuracy, and relevance. Calculus instructors are encouraged to integrate these SIMs into their curriculum to enhance student understanding in these challenging areas. The study further recommends that calculus teachers employ varied, research-based methodologies to effectively bridge learning gaps in calculus, ultimately fostering a more comprehensive grasp of fundamental calculus concepts.

Abstract

Research engagement in Philippine Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) is a pressing challenge. Despite its recognized importance for instructional innovations and institutional development, many faculty members avoid research, even when incentives are available. This qualitative-transcendental phenomenology explores and describes the experiences and insights of instructors on the factors affecting their research engagement. Through purposive sampling, specifically the criterion sampling technique, thirty-two (32) participants were selected from the four branches of Davao de Oro State College (DdOSC). The validated interview guide questions were used as the primary instrument in obtaining data through in-depth interviews and focus-group discussion, and the responses were thoroughly analyzed using thematic analysis. The significant factors identified by faculty were graduate studies and work responsibilities. Additionally, their lack of technical research writing knowledge contributed to their research limitations. Faculty members emphasized the need for ongoing research guidance, mentorship, and a wider range of incentives, such as integrating research into teaching loads, salary increases, and travel opportunities. Communication gaps between faculty and institutional research policies were evident, as some faculty members were unaware of the college's support. This study's implications stress the need for institutions to reconsider faculty workloads, offer additional training, and establish support systems that create a more research-friendly environment. Addressing these factors and expanding incentives can inspire faculty to participate in research activities, fostering a vibrant research culture and advancing knowledge within the academic community.
