Leadership is considered as a complex, multifaceted process of influencing, guiding, and managing people towards achieving common goals. It is not about authority or positions, but it requires innate and developed characteristics rooted in social responsibility and emotional intelligence. Researchers agree that effective leadership empowers others, promotes collaboration, and adapts to the changing organizational landscape. Moreover, it aims to address the challenges and ensures inclusive progress. In this light, this paper delves into the nature, impact, and types of leadership – examining the strengths and weaknesses such as autocratic, democratic, transformational, transactional, servant, charismatic, laissez-faire, bureaucratic, and situational leadership. It also highlights how these styles are interconnected and can be applied simultaneously. Furthermore, the research emphasizes the future of leadership, pointing out that blending two or more styles can foster a more motivated and satisfied organizational membership. This paper also states that no singular leadership style is solely or universally effective in all situations. Instead, the integration of multiple leadership styles which is coined as full-range or hybrid leadership, offering a more responsive, inclusive, and flexible workplace. The insights can serve as important framework for leadership development in numerous sectors most especially in education and governance.

This study explored the operational management of rice farmers in Molave, Zamboanga del Sur, focusing on how they finance their farms and address farming needs from cultivation to harvest. Small to medium-sized rice farmers face increasing challenges related to funding, resource access, and labor practices. Understanding their management strategies provides insights into improving agricultural sustainability. A qualitative case study approach was employed, guided by Sharan B. Merriam’s methodology. Ten experienced rice farmers aged 25 and above, each operating farm for at least two years, participated in the study. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, field observations, and audio recordings. The researchers served as the primary instruments of data collection, ensuring accuracy and contextual depth through transcription and thematic analysis. Findings revealed significant financial constraints among farmers, including limited access to credit, high operational costs for equipment, labor, fertilizers, and pesticides, and a lack of effective risk management practices. Additionally, unfair labor practices in rice trading were found to negatively impact farmer income and sustainability. Based on these findings, the study recommends that local governments enhance support for farmers by investing in agricultural infrastructure, organizing farmer associations, and providing free fertilizers and pesticides.Farmers are encouraged to engage in continuous learning and strengthen peer networks to build resilience. Future research should explore the broader impact of farm operations on local economies to inform policy and innovation. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of rice farming operations and highlights the need for targeted support to improve rural livelihoods.

This study explores how microloans are helping livestock farmers in Pagadian City, Zamboanga del Sur, Philippines. For many small-scale farmers, traditional banks are out of reach microloans fill that gap by offering accessible financing to support their agricultural activities. These loans have become a valuable tool for rural development, giving farmers a chance to invest in their farms, improve productivity, and increase income. To understand how microloans are used and how effective they are, the study combined survey responses and interviews with local farmers, along with insights from microfinance institutions. It looked into how loans are approved, how they're used, and what challenges farmers face particularly with repayment and access to reliable information. The findings show that microloans have made a real difference. Farmers used the funds to buy healthier livestock, upgrade their facilities, and improve overall farm output. But not everything worked perfectly. Some struggled with strict repayment terms, and others didn’t fully understand how to access or manage these financial tools. The study offers practical recommendations for policymakers, lenders, and farmers. These include introducing more flexible repayment options, improving farmer education about loan programs, and encouraging better coordination between lenders and agricultural support services. This research provides meaningful insights into how microloans can be made more effective. It points the way toward smarter policies and programs that can help small farmers thrive and contribute more fully to sustainable rural development.

While AI writing tools promise efficiency and productivity, educators are concerned about their potential threat to academic integrity. This study focuses on identifying the AI writing tools used by students, assessing each tool’s perceived usefulness based on its functionality, and exploring students' views on the impact of AI writing tools in enhancing their written output. A quantitative method, using a survey questionnaire, was employed to determine the AI writing tools students use and their perceived usefulness. A qualitative method, via focus group discussions, was also utilized to explore students' views on using AI writing tools to enhance their academic work. The results show that students are exposed to various AI writing tools, with Google Translate being popular for language translation, Quillbot for summarizing and paraphrasing, and ChatGPT for content generation and other writing-related tasks. Students perceived AI writing tools as very useful for enhancing their academic papers, as they increase their confidence in writing and improve productivity and efficiency. However, due to potential inaccuracies in generated content, students expressed skepticism on fully relying on AI writing tools. They indicated that they have become more vigilant when using these tools to avoid plagiarism and prevent incorporating false information and sources. The study suggests that educational institutions could develop guidelines or implement policies on the ethical use of AI writing tools to promote academic integrity. Schools may also encourage responsible use of these tools to cultivate a culture of honesty.

This study investigated the competency needs and challenges faced by Inclusion Assistants (IAs) supporting Students of Determination (SODs) in Abu Dhabi schools to inform the development of a tailored training program. Using a concurrent triangulation mixed-methods design, data were collected via surveys and interviews from 100 IAs. Findings indicate most IAs (aged 26–29) lack formal training and advanced qualifications. Competency was rated highest in disability understanding (3.86), lesson plan modification (3.81), and empathy (3.83), but collaboration with teachers (2.84), communication (3.08), and assistive technology use (3.04–3.26) require improvement. Key professional development barriers include irrelevant content (3.91), poor applicability (3.93), and limited access (3.83). The study highlights the need for a context-specific training program to enhance collaboration, emotional intelligence, and technological skills, aiming to empower IAs and improve inclusive education outcomes for SODs in Abu Dhabi.

Calligraphy holds an important place in the life of Chinese people. Being a supreme form of art that keeps the Chinese culture, calligraphy is taught to young students. This study explores the impact of calligraphy education on the cognitive abilities, fine motor skills, and psychosocial skills of students in Shenjiaying Primary School. The study aims to evaluate the improvement effect of calligraphy education on students' memory, attention, hand-eye coordination, self-discipline, and cultural appreciation ability. This study employed purposive sampling, selecting three teachers, three students, and three parents from Shenjiaying Primary School in Huangshi City, Hubei Province as interview subjects under an exploratory case study design. A sample size of three participants per group ensures in-depth interviews, allowing for detailed collection of each participant's specific perceptions and feedback on calligraphy education. This approach avoids superficial information from large samples while meeting qualitative research requirements for "information saturation. Through thematic analysis, responses were collated then analyzed. The results indicate that calligraphy education significantly improves students' observation ability, memory, and hand-eye coordination, while enhancing their self-discipline and cultural identity. Based on these findings, a learning plan is proposed which aims at integrating calligraphy education more effectively into primary school curriculum to promote students' all-round development. The conclusion points out that calligraphy education is not only a cultivation of artistic skills, but also an important way to enhance students' cognitive and psychological qualities. Calligraphy education can be effectively integrated into primary school classrooms through grade-segmented teaching, interdisciplinary linkages, and home-school collaboration.

In today’s fast-paced and competitive job market, the capacity to adapt to career changes and challenges is essential for long-term success. Transitioning from academia to a professional career can be challenging for learners. Career adaptability is a trait that students utilise to navigate uncertainty in the workplace. Although numerous studies compared working and non-working students, few have specifically examined their career adaptability in the local context. Most existing research centers on post-employment outcomes such as job satisfaction and career growth, with limited attention given to the demographics of currently enrolled university students. This comparative study explored the career adaptability of university students in the Philippines. Using the Career Adaptability Assessment Scale (CAAS), data were collected from both groups through an online questionnaire. An independent samples t-test was used to compare the means of career adaptability dimensions and overall career adaptability between working and non-working students. Results showed a significant difference in career confidence (p = 0.002, d = -0.44) and overall career adaptability (p = 0.04, d = -0.29) between the two groups, demonstrating higher levels in working students. Furthermore, no significant difference was observed in terms of career concern (p = 0.18), career control (p = 0.43), and career curiosity (p = 0.45). These findings suggest that while employment status is associated with differences in career adaptability and confidence among students, the practical effect size of this difference is limited. The findings identify potential areas for targeted institutional support for student career development.

The purpose of this study is to investigate their experiences and attitudes towards various reading strategies following the decrease in EFL students' reading comprehension in Taiwan's senior high schools, as shown in the 2023 Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) assessment results. Following an explanatory sequential mixed-methods approach, the study favors a qualitative phase that explores students' experiences in the three reading strategies, specifically writing tasks, which facilitate interaction with written texts and foster enhanced learning. The study aims to gain a deeper understanding of how students make sense of and engage with given tasks, including their thoughts, feelings, and subject-related challenges. By investigating these individual perceptions, the research aims to reveal the subtlety of their modes of understanding and pinpoint the elements that favor or inhibit comprehension growth.

This quantitative study examined how foreign language anxiety influenced classroom participation among English as a Second Language (ESL) students at Aklan State University, Banga Campus. Utilizing the Foreign Language Classroom Anxiety Scale (FLCAS) by Horwitz, Horwitz, and Cope (1986), the research investigated four primary components of anxiety: communication apprehension, test anxiety, fear of negative evaluation, and anxiety about comprehension. A total of 43 first- and second-year BSEd English students participated in the study. Data were collected through standardized Likert-scale questionnaires and participation checklists, and analyzed using SPSS Version 16 to determine correlations between anxiety levels and student engagement. Findings revealed that most participants experienced moderate to high levels of anxiety, with classroom participation and fear of negative evaluation being the most significant factors affecting their participation. A statistically significant inverse relationship was found between anxiety and student participation—higher anxiety levels were associated with reduced classroom engagement. Communication apprehension and fear of negative evaluation emerged as the strongest predictors of avoidance behaviors, such as reluctance to speak in class or volunteer responses. Although comprehension-related anxiety was less prominent, it still contributed to overall emotional discomfort. The study concluded that psychological barriers—rather than linguistic ability alone—played a central role in limiting student participation in ESL classrooms. The results underscored the need for emotionally supportive teaching strategies and classroom environments that minimize anxiety and encourage active participation. These findings offer critical implications for educators, administrators, and researchers aiming to enhance ESL instruction and reduce affective obstacles to language acquisition.

Young professionals in the Philippines show low stock market involvement due to behavioral biases, poor risk assessments, lack of confidence to invest, and limited understanding or trust in digital investment tools. This study examined the influence of determinants of stock market involvement to stock investment decisions among 385 young professionals in Cebu City aged 20-35, a demographic with growing financial capacity but limited involvement, while also accounting the impact of demographic factors. Employing descriptive statistics, Pearson Correlation Coefficient, and Chi-Square Tests, results revealed that age, monthly income, and years of stock investment experience significantly affect involvement and investment decisions. Strong correlations were found between stock market awareness and investment behaviors, risk perception, and technology adoption with key investment decision factors, including consideration of economic conditions (r=.696), technical indicators (r=.620), market volatility (r=.684), and stock market indices (r=.606). Results affirm the Theory of Planned Behavior, Prospect Theory, and the Technology Acceptance Model, while supporting the hypothesis that a significant relationship exists between the levels of involvement and investment decisions. The findings underscore the importance of personalized financial education, improved digital literacy, and greater regulatory transparency to foster confident, data-driven investment decisions. These insights also provide a valuable basis for financial institutions, policymakers, and fintech developers to collaboratively design accessible, behavior-sensitive, and tech-enabled programs that encourage deeper and smarter engagement in the stock market.
