Abstract

The pandemic caused by the spread of Coronavirus had brought sig-nificant changes to academic institutions. One notable change is the reliance to technology in conducting online synchronous class in the form of video-conferencing. The changes brought about by the pan-demic have been accompanied by a rise in different psychological issues such as anxiety. Given that most studies conducted in the Phil-ippines focus on the effects of COVID-19 on college students’ learning processes and mental health, further exploration is needed to better understand students’ experiences with video conferencing platforms in online synchronous classes. To achieve the purpose of the study, phenomenological approach and applied interpretative phenomeno-logical analysis were utilized. The findings revealed four main themes: on the use of technology, intrapersonal awareness of anxiety, interpersonal awareness of anxiety, and on coping with anxiety. These findings are valuable for academic institutions in developing policies to manage students’ anxiety related to videoconferencing. Academic institutions are encouraged to go beyond focusing solely on the academic outcomes of the students and revisit traditional frame-works and integrate mental health considerations. Development and validation of psychometric instruments to accurately measure video-conferencing-related anxiety is recommended. Conducting meta-analyses of existing research can help identify patterns and underly-ing factors influencing student anxiety in virtual learning environ-ments.

Abstract

This study investigated how parental migration affected the future aspirations of left-behind children of Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) in Angeles City, Philippines. With a qualitative explanatory case study approach, the research focused on understanding the impact of parental migration on future aspirations among students at Angeles University Foundation. Through semi-structured interviews with a purposively sampled group of three participants, the study explored the complex interplay of factors influencing their aspirations. Findings suggest that while parental migration introduces challenges like emotional distance and altered family dynamics, it also fosters resilience, financial opportunities, and a strong motivation, often linked to reciprocating parental sacrifices. Key themes emerging included navigating expectations and responsibilities, forging futures amidst parental absence, the duality of migration's impact (both positive and negative), and the crucial role of resilience and support systems. Support from various sources, including teachers and peers, appeared significant. While the small sample size limits the generalizability of the findings, this study emphasizes the importance for educators to provide targeted support addressing the unique educational and emotional needs of left-behind children. It contributes nuanced insights into the impact of migration on family dynamics and children's aspirations, emphasizing the need for strategies to support these children

Abstract

Scientific research is essential in advancing human knowledge and in driving technological advancements. Students in the bachelor of science in biology program are expected to accomplish scientific research as a curriculum requirement. Possessing scientific research skills is essential for producing high-quality research outputs. A scale for assessing scientific research skills among senior high school students is available, however, there is an instrumentation gap in evaluating these skills at the tertiary level. In this regard, a research gap also exists in the assessment of students’ scientific research skills. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) using the JAMOVI software was utilized to establish the validity and reliability of the scientific research skill scale. The study included 133 officially enrolled biology students who voluntarily agreed to participate. The results provided compelling evidence that the tool effectively assesses scientific research skills in three key areas: scientific information development skills, scientific research management skills, and scientific research processing skills. This also affirmed the relevance of the three key areas in the biology program. The results also revealed that the level of scientific research skills of the students is on the average level across all three areas. This reflected an existing issue in the field of scientific research as mastery of skills is crucial in producing quality output, hence the study has significant implications for curriculum developers and policymakers of higher education institutions. There is a need to revisit the curriculum and to incorporate opportunities to enhance scientific research skills across various science subjects.
