Abstract

Incorporating career-oriented teaching (COT) in technical-vocational education addresses challenges in graduates’ job readiness by emphasizing practical skills aligned with career interests. This study investigates the impact of COT on students’ self-regulation in biology, which is crucial for academic and career success. Quantitative analysis reveals that COT significantly enhances self-regulation skills, including decision-making, goal orientation, impulse control, and self-direction, compared to conventional science teaching (CST). Qualitative responses underscore the positive influence of COT on decision-making and goal orientation, with students setting positive goals and exhibiting improved impulse control. Moreover, COT fosters self-direction, promoting autonomy and responsibility for learning. These findings emphasize the importance of innovative teaching approaches like COT in developing students’ self-regulation abilities and preparing them for the demands of the modern workforce. Integrating concrete, problem-based tasks in COT and teacher training can further enhance its effectiveness in developing specialized skills and self-regulation. This research contributes valuable insights into instructional practices’ role in shaping students’ self-regulation and highlights the need to explore further innovative teaching strategies to support students’ holistic development.

Abstract

The K to 12 program in the Philippines, initiated in 2012, brought about challenges like job mismatch among senior high school (SHS) graduates. Addressing this issue requires integrating technical-vocational-livelihood (TVL) skills with core subject skills, particularly in biology. This study explores how the career-focused teaching approach (CFTA) nurtures biology-technical-vocational-fused skills (BTVFS). Using a pretest-posttest quasi-experimental design, two grade 11 classes (35 students each) participated-one exposed to CFTA and the other to conventional teaching. Quantitative data from a researcher-made BTVFS questionnaire were analyzed with an independent samples t-test, revealing significant differences in all BTVFS subcomponents; t(68)=3.670, p<0.036. Qualitative data from reflective journals aligned with BTVFS subskills (metacognition, communication, problem-solving, and collaboration). CFTA proved instrumental in enhancing the BTVFS of students, emphasizing its importance in the curriculum across SHS core subjects to mitigate job mismatch for K to 12 graduates.
