Abstract

The benefits of social and emotional learning in early childhood education have been underlined by research more and more as a critical component in influencing teachers’ methods and encouraging successful student outcomes. Thus, this study explored the kindergarten teachers’ social and emotional learning practices, strategies for teaching language development, and their relationship to teaching performance. It utilized an embedded mixed-method research design with 108 kindergarten teachers sampled from 36 schools in a selected Philippine region. Data were gathered online with a Social-Emotional Competence Questionnaire and a Teacher Survey Instructional Orientation Questionnaire. Results indicated that high teaching performance was associated with experience and position. Effective language development and SEL practices, particularly those related to social awareness, supported cognitive and emotional growth. This study found that effective language development and SEL practices also strengthened the outcome of teaching and learning. Combining language development techniques with social and emotional learning is vital to promote teacher effectiveness and the overall development of young children.

Abstract

The evolving educational landscape and the growing concerns in the educational sector prompted master science teachers to conduct, disseminate, and utilize research. This study described the research capabilities, motivations, and challenges master science teachers face and examined the relationships among these variables. Data were gathered from 113 master science teachers in nine participating public schools in the Division of Nueva Ecija, Philippines, through a questionnaire. Results revealed that although they can identify research problems, choose approaches, and analyze data, they are challenged in managing research obligations, particularly regarding time and funds. Motivated to enhance teaching methods and support the educational community, master science teachers overcome these obstacles to show great degrees of professional and personal desire to participate in research. To help master science teachers create a stronger research culture, this study underlines the importance of institutional assistance, including improved access to research funds and professional development opportunities. There is a need to explore more factors to improve the research culture and contributions to education by Philippine master science teachers.
