Abstract

Engaging with research publications is crucial for graduate students in their academic pursuits. It allows them to not only reflect on their knowledge and practice, which in turn leads to the development of a research topic for their theses, but also to contribute to the advancement of knowledge within their field of study.This study delves into the motivations, experiences and needs of graduate students who have engaged in research and publication in the Philippines context. A phenomenological approach was applied, involving selected graduate students who have published at least one research in internationally refereed journals and experienced the processes of journal publication. The data were gathered from FGD and analyzed iteratively. The findings revealed that their motivations are professors’ encouragement, course requirements, new learning experience, collaboration, and promotion. In describing their experiences, they found it enriching, collaborative, fulfilling, and challenging. Their needs are mentoring, research capability building, having a research community, financial support and incentives, and providing relevant information. From the findings, it can be concluded that graduate students will be able to do research with the right motivation and support from the faculty. Research and publication are fulfilling and enriching but challenging. The experiences and needs of the selected graduate students can be used as inputs in the development of a research and publication program for graduate students. in general and comparing between autonomous versus controlled motivation.

Abstract

Raising a child with a disability (CWD) often incurs additional costs for any family. However, when a family is situated within a low socioeconomic status, the financial burden can be even more pronounced. This prompted a phenomenological study to delve deeper into the lived experiences of such families, focusing on how disability exacerbates the family’s finances. Utilizing semi-structured interviews, participants were able to narrate the unique challenges and barriers they faced in raising CWD within the context of limited financial resources. The emerging themes revealed multifaceted challenges, including caregiving tasks, parental stress, and hurtful remarks. Concerns about the future of the children and the caregiving responsibilities being placed on mothers were also highlighted. Additionally, families often face trade-offs between meeting the needs of other family members and those of the CWD due to financial constraints. Access to healthcare presents further barriers, particularly for low-income families. While some existing support programs offer relief, there is a notable absence of specific support for CWD families. The Head, meanwhile, also shared his plans for the person with the disability community.

Abstract

Despite the prevalence of sandwich generation Filipino women in the Philippines, their nuanced and unique experiences of being caught in the middle of two or more generations remain an understudied social phenomenon. The present study is a phenomenological research study that aimed to investigate the lived experiences of sandwich generation Filipino women and how they made sense of their circumstances amid the backdrop of intergenerational caregiving and the associated burden they carry. The study utilized purposive sampling in gathering eight sandwich generation Filipino women participants living in Metro Manila, who were later interviewed through one-on-one, in-depth interviews. Data was then transcribed and analyzed through thematic analysis; wherein significant themes were generated to produce meaningful narratives depicting intergenerational caregiving among sandwich generation Filipino women. Specifically, the findings of the study revealed that these women assume the primary caregiver role and fulfill domestic along with economic responsibilities due to a perceived sense of responsibility to pay back or help their families coupled with gender roles and norms. It is a deliberate choice that they make daily as they go through both rewarding and challenging experiences. In moving forward, they aspire for the future generation to have more agency and autonomy over their lives. The study shed light on the struggles of sandwich generation Filipino women, hence providing information on how different entities can pave the way for the increased visibility of unpaid care work and upholding Filipino women’s full rights.

Abstract

The group-level assessment (GLA) is a type of participatory evaluation that involves stakeholders in generating themes and action plans in the process. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the on-campus practice teaching program at a university laboratory high school (LHSU) using GLA. Since 2006, fourth-year students pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics and Science Teaching have participated in on-campus practice teaching at LHSU. The absence of systematic feedback collection and comprehensive evaluation has led to program supervision relying on anecdotal experiences and observations by LHSU coordinators and cooperating teachers (CTs). This study addresses this gap by aiming to identify strengths, needs, areas for improvement, and action plans generated by stakeholders. Employing a qualitative participatory design through GLA, 16 stakeholders participated, providing data through responses to open-ended prompts. Recognized strengths include the program’s role in translating theoretical knowledge into real-world teaching scenarios, while needs involve establishing on-campus teaching colloquia and a resource hub for teaching and learning materials. An identified area for improvement is enhancing feedback mechanisms. Stakeholders proposed action plans, including establishing partnerships with local and international teacher education institutions, and establishing a department for the mathematics and science teaching program. This study makes a substantial contribution by enhancing the quality of teacher preparation programs in mathematics and science education. Furthermore, this study serves as a valuable reference for future researchers engaged in the evaluation of practice teaching or education programs using GLA.
