Abstract

One of the best things a teacher can do to help students achieve a quality learning process is to create and validate learning resources or instructional materials, such as a workbook. With this, a descriptive-developmental research design was utilized in development and validation of most essential learning competency-based workbook in General Physics 1 for Senior High School. The development of the MELC-based workbook in General Physics 1 was based on the 85 most essential learning competencies for the whole semester using the six components namely topics, specific objectives, key concepts, directions, activities and reflection. The developed workbook was fielded to the three groups of respondents such as group of experts, teachers handling General Physics 1 and grade 12 STEM students. The study disclosed that these groups of respondents evaluated the workbook to be both content and face valid as evidenced in their assessment labeled as “agree” in the indicators. Moreover, the results showed that the MELC-based workbook has met the standard and can be used as a learning material in teaching General Physics 1 for Senior High School. As such, it was recommended by the researchers that the said workbook be used as learning material in teaching General Physics 1 for Senior High School. Further study on the effectiveness of the said workbook must be warranted with consideration to some factors.

Abstract

As instructional leaders, master teachers and department heads are equally important in harnessing commendable scholastic performance for both teachers and students. This paper explored the case on how science master teachers and department heads practice on science instructional leadership, thereby creating an in-depth description and analysis of their ideals and realities. An electronic open-ended survey questionnaire and semi-structured individual interviews with six participants were used to collect data. Findings revealed that the practices of master teachers and department heads on coordinating the science curriculum dimension include fostering professional development among science teachers, providing technical assistance to science teachers, and organizing programs, projects and activities related to science. Meanwhile, ensuring instructional competence of science teachers and performing classroom observation as prescribed by Department of Education are their practices under supervising and evaluating science instructions. For monitoring student’s progress, participants’ practices include focusing diverse assessment strategies towards science process skills. This study also unveiled that the participants faced dilemma in their role as instructional leaders because of additional tasks aside from the prescribed duties and responsibilities of science master teachers and department heads expected from them. Moreover, documentary analysis disclosed that the instructional leadership of science master teachers and department heads significantly influence the school performance. Further study on the relationship between instructional competence of school leaders to its performance indicators is warranted.
