Abstract

Purpose of the Study: This study explores the challenges faced by parents during the full implementation of in-person classes at the tertiary level and examines their suggestions for improving this transition. Methodology: The study employed a qualitative descriptive research design. In-depth interviews were conducted with ten parents using a guided questionnaire to gather comprehensive insights. Triangulation was used to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the findings. Main Findings: The study highlights the resourcefulness and determination of parents in supporting their children's college education. It uncovers not only tangible successes—such as academic achievements and career prospects—but also narratives of resilience, creativity, and unwavering commitment in overcoming financial, emotional, and unforeseen challenges. Novelty/Originality of this Study: The study presents untold stories of parents' experiences, offering unique perspectives on their struggles and triumphs. These insights can inspire educational practices and policies that better address the needs of families supporting tertiary education in a post-pandemic context.

Abstract

This study explored the concerns and suggestions of generation Z students in rural communities to improve the newly implemented tertiary physical education (PE) program in the Philippines - physical activity towards health and fitness (PATHFit). Employing a qualitative-ethnographic approach, data were gathered from 20 generation Z students who were selected and participated in purposive interviews using open-ended questions validated by experts. The findings highlighted several themes following the data analysis using the Colaizzi method: PE should be engaging and fun, moving beyond traditional books and materials; a more flexible curriculum is needed, one that does not feel like a rigid prescription; student-centered activities should be prioritized to promote active involvement; lectures should be limited, with a greater focus on interactive, hands-on experiences; access to sports equipment through a borrowing system is crucial for student participation; and high-quality teaching, characterized by clear communication and practical demonstrations, is essential for a more meaningful learning experience. The study concludes and implies that generation Z students in rural communities desire a more engaging, flexible, and interactive PATHFit program that aligns with their interests and needs. Their insights provide valuable direction for enhancing the curriculum, promoting active student involvement, and ensuring that teaching is clear, practical, and engaging.

Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between sports and physical activity anxiety and self-actualization among university students. Utilizing a quantitative research design with a descriptive correlation approach, the study involved 2,043 respondents selected through simple random sampling. Two primary instruments were employed: the physical activity and sport anxiety scale (PASAS) to measure anxiety levels and the index of self-actualization to assess self-actualization traits. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Spearman’s rho correlation coefficient to explore the relationships between the variables. Results revealed that respondents exhibited low levels of sports and physical activity anxiety and moderate levels of self-actualization. Notably, a significant negative correlation was identified between sports and physical activity anxiety and self-actualization. These findings imply that higher anxiety related to sports and physical activities is associated with lower levels of self-actualization, highlighting the need for supportive environments that mitigate anxiety in physical activity contexts. The study underscores the importance of implementing strategies to reduce anxiety and promote self-discovery, ultimately fostering resilience and personal growth among students.

Abstract

This study explored the activity preferences of Generation Z (Gen Z) students in rural communities to enhance the implementation of the Philippine physical activity towards health and fitness (PATH-Fit) program. Utilizing a qualitative-ethnographic approach, insights were obtained from 20 selected Gen Z students through expert-validated open-ended questions. The findings highlighted seven key preferences: lessen the lectures, holistic activities, sports and physical activities, comfort, accessibility, and convenience, community and outdoor activities, activities to deviate from technology, and activities that do not add stress. The study revealed that Gen Z students in rural areas prefer PATH-Fit activities that are engaging, diverse, and supportive of their overall well-being. They favor fewer lectures to allow for more interactive learning experiences that integrate social, mental, and emotional aspects alongside physical activities. Additionally, they seek activities that are comfortable, accessible, and convenient, valuing easy access and minimal hassle. Community engagement and outdoor experiences are also crucial to them, as are opportunities to disconnect from technology and avoid stress. These preferences emphasize the need for a well-rounded and adaptable approach to physical education (PE) that aligns with Gen Z students’ diverse needs and well-being in rural communities.
Experiences of Gen Zs in movement competency training course: basis for contextualizing the Philippine PATH-Fit Tagare, Jr., Ruben L.; Saroca, Jr., Daniel B.; Aguinaldo, Jerrwin C.; Meriales, Rosalie D.; Lunag, Gliceria C.; Java, Vinus P.; Elumbaring, Jerum B.; Esto, Jomar B.; Janito, Cheeze R.; Nadela, Lara Ivanah C.; Esponja, Joanna Caryl P.; Martinez, Norge D; Calixtro, Marichu A.; Dee, Michelle R.

Abstract

This study explored the experiences of Generation Z (Gen Z) students from rural communities in the PATH-Fit 1 course (movement competency training) to identify ways to improve the Philippine Physical Activity Toward Health and Fitness (PATH-Fit) program. A qualitative-descriptive approach was used, with 20 students carefully selected for interviews. Open-ended questions, validated by experts, were used to gather detailed insights into the students’ thoughts and experiences. The findings revealed that students enjoyed the engaging activities, the focus on overall well-being, and the supportive nature of their teachers in PATH-Fit 1. However, they also found the course physically exhausting and too demanding, which led to frustration. Additionally, students expressed concerns about teacher absenteeism and the ineffectiveness of online classes, which negatively impacted their learning experience. These issues highlighted areas where the program could be improved to better meet the needs of rural Gen Z students. By addressing these concerns, the PATH-Fit program can be more effectively tailored to enhance student engagement and learning outcomes, ultimately providing a more positive and fulfilling educational experience for Gen Z learners in rural communities.

Abstract

This study explores the relationship between physical activity engagement and internet addiction among university students in a rural Philippine academic setting—an understudied context where digital reliance and limited physical access converge. Employing a rigorous quantitative approach through a descriptive-correlational design, the study involved 892 respondents selected via simple random sampling from a premier state university. Data were gathered using the culturally adaptable international physical activity questionnaire (IPAQ) and the internet addiction test (InAT), both established and reliable tools for assessing physical activity levels and problematic internet use. Descriptive and inferential statistics, including Pearson correlation coefficient, were utilized to analyze patterns and relationships within the data. The results indicate a significant negative correlation between physical activity engagement and internet addiction, suggesting that higher physical activity is associated with lower levels of problematic internet use. This finding underscores the protective role of physical activity against digital overdependence and highlights the need to contextualize behavioral health strategies within rural academic environments. The study offers valuable insights for policymakers, educators, and researchers aiming to support student well-being through integrative health and technology-use frameworks.
