Reading fluency—the ability to read with accuracy, automaticity, and prosody—is essential for comprehension. This study employed a quasi-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design to enhance the English reading fluency of 31 Grade 6 learners at Luna Central School through Project 4P’s during the 2023-2024 school year. The Philippine Informal Reading Inventory (PHIL-IRI) Assessment Tool was used to determine learners' initial fluency levels and measure improvements after the intervention. Their pretest and post-test scores were analyzed using the mean and compared using a dependent t-test. Results revealed that prior to the intervention, learners' reading fluency was categorized as Frustration, indicating significant difficulty in reading. Following the implementation of Project 4P’s, their fluency improved to Independent, demonstrating substantial progress in reading proficiency. Statistical analysis showed a significant difference between pretest and post-test scores, confirming the effectiveness of Project 4P’s in improving literacy skills. These findings underscore the value of structured reading interventions in fostering fluency and comprehension. Consequently, the researcher recommends adopting Project 4P’s as a viable strategy for improving English reading fluency among Grade 6 students, with potential applicability in similar educational settings.

The world is experiencing various environmental issues which pose serious threat to human health and well-being. These problems must be introduced to the classroom to raise environmental awareness among the students. In relation to the strategies in teaching environmental education, schools utilize gardens to provide students with hands-on learning. This study aimed to determine the relationship between Grade 11 STEM students’ horticultural involvement and their environmental awareness through Hanging Green Space Project at Pasig National High School during the second semester of the school year 2024-2025. The study employed descriptive correlational research design and gathered data from selected 81 Grade 11 STEM students through survey questionnaires. Descriptive statistics revealed that students strongly agreed on their active involvement in horticulture and demonstrated high levels of environmental awareness after conducting the Hanging Green Space Project. Meanwhile, inferential statistics using Pearson’s correlation showed a significant relationship between students’ horticultural involvement and environmental awareness, correlation values ranging from 0.221 to 0.371 (p<0.05), indicating weak to moderate positive relationship. These results imply that students who are actively engaged in horticultural activities tend to be more aware of the environmental issues. Furthermore, the study recommends incorporating horticultural or gardening activities various discipline to connect the practical activities with theoretical and ethical reflections. In addition, incorporating gardening into a broader curriculum framework is encouraged to sustain development of horticultural involvement and promote awareness of environmental issues among wider groups of learners.

The Vision, Mission, Developmental Goals, and Core Values (VMDGCV) define the strategic orientation and identity of higher education institutions. In technical fields like Electrical Engineering (EE), adherence to these institutional statements guarantees program relevance, stakeholder involvement, and preparedness for accreditation. This research assessed the understanding and acceptability of Nueva Vizcaya State University’s (NVSU) amended VMDGCV among electrical engineering stakeholders, including students, teachers, staff, alumni, and parents. Data were collected from 120 purposively chosen respondents using a descriptive-quantitative methodology and a validated survey. Two principal dimensions—awareness and acceptability—were examined using descriptive statistics and ANOVA. The findings indicated that respondents exhibited modest awareness (mean = 3.28, SD = 0.69), with the university's developmental objectives for cultivating competent and values-driven graduates earning the greatest acknowledgment (mean = 3.60). The average acceptance rating was moderate (mean = 3.17, SD = 0.77), indicating overall endorsement of the institution's trajectory. Electrical Engineering students had considerably superior scores compared to other groups in both domains (ANOVA: F = 9.132, p < .05), indicating enhanced engagement via academic exposure. Conversely, instructors, staff, alumni, and parents exhibited diminished levels of familiarity and support. The research emphasizes the need of more effectively integrating institutional ideals across stakeholder interactions. Results demonstrate a moderate level of awareness and acceptability, particularly among students. It is advisable to implement broader communication methods and more inclusive engagement initiatives to improve alignment with institutional objectives and cultivate a unified, mission-oriented academic atmosphere.

This study investigated the effect of an Expressive Arts Therapy-based intervention program on trauma and aggression symptoms of women deprived of liberty (WDL). Using a multiple-group pretest-posttest design, 45 WDL (Mean age = 37.3) were matched based on age, nature of incarceration, and months of facility detention, then randomly assigned to a performing arts experimental group (n=15), a visual arts experimental group (n=15), or a waitlist control group (n=15). Data were analyzed using paired samples t-tests, one-way ANOVA, Tukey’s post-hoc test, and Cohen’s d for effect sizes. Results showed that the EAT-based intervention significantly reduced aggression symptoms in both the visual arts group (t (14) = 2.24, p = .042, d = .579), as well as the performing arts group (t (14)=2.39, p=0.032, d=.616), both with medium effect sizes. However, one-way ANOVA comparing posttest scores across groups did not reveal statistically significant differences (p > .05), suggesting that while EAT-based interventions may be effective at an individual level, no single modality was significantly more beneficial than another. Future research should explore long-term effects, moderating variables, and therapy intensity to better understand the impact of expressive arts interventions for incarcerated women.

Social media marketing is a powerful tool for businesses to connect with customers, and one form of this strategy is vlogging, as it offers engaging content that persuades people to try promoted products. This mixed-method research investigates the effectiveness of food vlogging as a social media marketing strategy in improving sales and profitability. Using paired sample t-tests, the study found a significant increase in sales after the adoption of food vlogging, confirming its impact as a sales-driving tool. However, there was no statistically significant improvement in profitability, indicating that increased sales did not directly translate to higher profit margins. Customer feedback revealed that most were persuaded by food vloggers to try featured products, demonstrating strong influencer impact on purchasing decisions. The marketing manager viewed food vlogging positively but emphasized the need for thorough planning and evaluation before implementation. While food vlogging enhances brand visibility and customer reach, businesses must address challenges like inconsistent viewer engagement and high collaboration costs. To maximize return on investment, the study recommends partnering with influencers who match the target audience and focusing on cost-per-action rather than cost-per-view performance metrics.

The rise in global greenhouse gases, particularly methane from agricultural water buffalo, poses a significant climate threat. This study aimed to quantify methane and nitrous oxide emissions from these buffalo in Central Aurora, Philippines, where such data is currently unquantified. The objective was to provide local and national policymakers with specific emission data to develop targeted mitigation policies, reducing the environmental impact of buffalo farming while sustaining its benefits. The data were collected from farms and government offices, supplemented by expert discussions. IPCC Tier 1 emission factors with uncertainty value of 60%, specific to Southeast Asia and buffalo age categories, were used with population data to calculate annual methane and nitrous oxide emissions, expressed as CO₂ equivalents also referring to all different warming gases in the atmosphere. Yearling buffalo were the highest individual methane emitters, emphasizing the need for targeted management during this stage to reduce overall emissions. Adult buffaloes contributed most to nitrous oxide emissions, highlighting the importance of age-specific emission factors for accurate inventories. Overall, water buffalo farming significantly contributed to greenhouse gases, necessitating age-aware and manure management strategies for mitigation. The highest CO₂ emissions was mainly due to methane released during their growth. Adult buffalo, though individually less polluting, contributed substantially to overall emissions because of their numbers. For precise evaluations, it was crucial to consider age-specific emission factors. This highlighted the importance of targeting yearlings with mitigation strategies (like changes in diet) and implementing wider management practices for adult herds, especially in agricultural planning for areas like Aurora, Central Luzon. While future studies may employ Tier 2 methods or examine genetic and dietary modifications to further refine emission estimates.

This descriptive-correlational study investigates the relationship between training and development, employee retention, and organizational effectiveness within a manufacturing firm in Naga, Cebu, Philippines. Three hundred sixty respondents were selected randomly to participate in the study, utilizing a validated and reliable questionnaire to collect pertinent data. The findings, analyzed using Spearman's rho, indicate a significant correlation between training and development, employee retention, and organizational effectiveness. Furthermore, simple linear regression analysis demonstrates that training and development correlate and serve as predictors of employee retention and organizational effectiveness. This emphasizes the importance of implementing comprehensive training and development programs that significantly boost employee retention and improve overall organizational effectiveness. Such initiatives are essential not only for fostering individual growth and skill enhancement but also for aligning with strategic human resource planning, ensuring that the workforce is equipped to meet current and future challenges. Accordingly, it is concluded that training and development should be viewed not merely as supplementary efforts but as essential components of a comprehensive business strategy, which contribute significantly to organizational success. Implementing an employee-centered training program fosters employee engagement, empowerment, and a sense of purpose.

Effective leadership at the barangay level is essential for responsive and inclusive local governance, yet neophyte barangay councilors often face a steep learning curve as they transition into public service roles. This study explored the experiences of neophyte barangay councilors in a municipality in Zamboanga del Sur. It utilized a qualitative approach and followed a phenomenological research design, employing a semi-structured interview guide in conducting in-depth interview with seven neophyte barangay councilors as participants of this study. Data were analyzed using Moustakas’ thematic analysis method. Moustakas thematic analysis is a method used to explore and interpret the lived experiences of individuals to uncover the essence of a phenomenon. This study identified four themes: bridging idealism with reality facing the challenging yet fulfilling journey of new barangay councilors, navigating leadership with limited preparation, support, and resources, and harnessing collective wisdom and collaborative network for effective leadership. The findings further reveal that newly elected officials often enter office with enthusiasm and idealism but are quickly confronted with the complexities of local governance resulting in uncertainty, administrative difficulties, and diminished confidence, especially in handling technical tasks such as drafting ordinances. It is recommended that the Department of Interior and Local Government may develop a training program targeted at neophyte barangay officials with practical workshops on legislative drafting, and project planning, as well as simulations on handling real-life governance issues.

Accumulation of waste food materials, such as cassava and shrimp peels, continues to contribute to rise in greenhouse emissions. This study aims to produce a bioplastic film made from extracted cassava peel starch (CPS) and shrimp shell chitosan (SSCHT), plasticized with sorbitol (SOR) using a constrained D-optimal mixture design. Films were assessed in terms of tensile strength, elongation at break, contact angle, opacity, and functional groups. Significant models were generated in terms of tensile strength (p = 0.0148), contact angle (p = 0.1049) and opacity (p = 0.6529). Cassava peel starch had a significant (p < 0.001) effect on tensile strength due to hydrogen bonding with chitosan, whereas elongation at break was significantly (p = 0.0017) affected by sorbitol due to its structural similarity to starch and larger molecular weight as compared to glycerol. Contact angle increased with the incorporation of shrimp shell chitosan (p = 0.4647) by minimizing hydrophilic regions for external water molecule penetration. Opacity was significantly (p = 0.0013) reduced by the incorporation of cassava peel starch due to the refraction of swollen starch granules. Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) verified the interactions in the CPS/SSCHT/SOR bioplastic film, while thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) provided insights on thermal stability of the bioplastic for industrial use. This study provides insight into the potential of food waste valorization using green extraction methods in producing environmentally friendly bioplastics for hard packaging applications.

The lack of widespread commercial repurposing and recycling of waste wooden utensils contribute to pollution and toxic waste in the environment. This study aims to develop a sustainable method of repurposing waste wooden utensils into mechanically-robust electrospun fibers. Waste wooden utensil nanocellulose (WUNC) was produced using delignification, bleaching, and hydrolysis. Polymer mixtures consisting of 10% poly-vinyl alcohol (PVA), WUNC, and the pigment-protein complex phycocyanin (PC) were prepared for electrospinning following the Taguchi robust optimization design. Three parameters, namely WUNC addition (0.1, 0.2, 0.3 g./100 g), PC addition (0.1, 0.2, 0.3 g./100 g), and electrospinning voltage (25, 27.5, 30 kV), were varied to optimize loading capacity and tensile strength. Results showed WUNC addition of 0.2 g./100 g., PC addition of 0.3 g./100 g., and voltage of 25 kV optimal for loading capacity, with PC addition having the highest contribution at 44.54%. WUNC addition of 0.3 g./100 g., PC addition of 0.1 g./100 g., and voltage of 30 kV optimized tensile strength, with WUNC addition having the highest contribution at 57.99%. Produced WUNC resulted in a nanocellulose yield of approximately 16.81% with FTIR spectra revealing the removal of lignin and hemicellulose and increase of cellulose crystallinity. FTIR spectra for the electrospun fibers indicate successful integration of all components in the electrospun fibers. SEM analyses confirmed the creation of electrospun fibers within the nanosize range. Results confirmed the viability to extract nanocellulose and synthesize fibers from waste wooden utensils for enhancement of electrospun mats quality for biomedical applications, and offer new knowledge on wood-based nanomaterials.
