Abstract

This study aimed to better understand the school culture of college students at a state university and develop culturally responsive teaching strategies. Teachers can create instructional strategies that connect with their cultural backgrounds, including their values, beliefs, behaviors, norms, languages, and experiences, to improve students' learning. The study employed a sequential explanatory mixed-method design, collecting and analyzing quantitative and qualitative data. Experts, including an area specialist and a language specialist, validated the instrument used for data collection. Eighty-three respondents were selected for the study. Quantitative results revealed that respondents positively embraced and perceived the school culture as shown in the composite mean of 3.45 (SD = 0.34), verbally interpreted as "agree" and described as "adopted.” Furthermore, there was a significant difference in how students perceived the school culture at different ages. Meanwhile, the qualitative findings revealed that respondents had different views of school culture. The themes generated from the qualitative data presented varied views of college students on their way of life at school. They perceived that being at school helped them learn new things and feel comfortable around their classmates and teachers, making the experience more bearable.

Abstract

In the contemporary digitally interconnected society, social media exerts a pivotal influence on acquiring knowledge and skills, particularly among the youth. This research investigated the impact of social media exposure on the civic competencies of university students, aiming to develop an enrichment learning plan. Using a stratified sampling method, a survey questionnaire was administered to 100 students from the College of Teacher Education (CTE) BSED Department across all academic levels at a state university. The study utilized Pearson correlation analysis, revealing a significant and strong positive relationship between social media exposure and civic competencies. Key contributors to civic competencies identified were civic knowledge, 21st-century skills, and political engagement. The findings indicated that increased engagement with social media enhances students' civic competencies, as shown by a strong positive correlation (r = 0.69, p < 0.05). These results underscore the potential of social media as a valuable educational tool, suggesting the need for its integration into curricula to foster informed and active citizenship among students.
