Abstract

Religion is a basic social institution. However, the level of religiosity may vary among people based on social class. Nonetheless, the availability of empirical studies regarding this issue is far from satisfactory. Hence, the study aimed to examine whether social class is associated with religiosity among the people. The study mainly employed a cross-sectional survey design where data were collected at one point in time from a total of 110 participants through face-to-face interview. The samples were drawn based on judgmental sampling from the Muslim inhabitants aged 21 and above of the village Bataiya of Kabirhat Upazila of Noakhali District, Bangladesh. Moreover, three participants were interviewed in-depth in order to substantiate quantitative findings and gain a better understanding of the views of the participants as to how social class influenced religiosity. Religiosity was measured in terms of three dimensions: religious beliefs, religious values, and religious practices. Each dimension involved a set of factors. Gamma coefficients were used to find out the association between religiosity and social class. The study found that each of the factors pertaining to religious beliefs, religious values, and religious practices was negatively associated with social class. All these associations were statistically significant at 95% confidence level (p < 0.05). Hence, the study claimed that social class negatively affects religiosity. In other words, religiosity decreases as social class increases.

Abstract

The Department of Education is implementing the Arabic language and Islamic values education (ALIVE) program to teach Muslim children about their religion, especially Islamic values, and the Arabic language. This is aligned with the Philippine government’s mandate to provide every Filipino the right to basic education regardless of religion, race, or political affiliation. Competent madrasah teachers or Asatidz are the main implementers of the ALIVE program. This study examined how Asatidz in the Division of Santa Rosa implements the program in terms of learning objectives, instruction, curriculum content, assessment, classroom management, and school leadership. This research used a descriptive-qualitative design to conduct in-depth interviews with five ALIVE teachers in Santa Rosa City, Laguna, Philippines. The findings show limitations in teacher training, accessibility of resources, and professional development, particularly in Arabic language and Islamic jurisprudence. The study provides value by emphasizing major problems in localized implementation and providing solutions to improve teacher training, resource allocation, and policy support. Finally, guaranteeing ALIVE's long-term viability necessitates a greater emphasis on teacher capacity building and system-level support to improve Muslim children's academic results.

Abstract

The City Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office (CDRRMO) in the Philippines is mandated to disseminate information and communicate disaster risks to the public. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the CDRRMO's information dissemination efforts in the occurrence of a typhoon in a barangay in Science City of Muñoz, Nueva Ecija. Using a correlational research design, a survey was conducted with 93 residents to assess their level of awareness of information disseminated by the CDRRMO before, during, and after a typhoon. The results indicated that respondents' awareness of the CDRRMO's initiatives before, during, and after the typhoon was moderate. A significant finding showed that respondents showed a higher level of awareness regarding information disseminated after the typhoon compared to before and during the event. The study also found a correlation between the respondents' awareness and the CDRRMO's effectiveness in disseminating information. The study concluded that to improve public awareness and enhance communication, the CDRRMO should increase the use and distribution of accessible print materials, particularly at the barangay level. That highlights how effective communication is crucial for mitigating risks in the aftermath of a disaster, especially at the grassroots levels.
