Abstract

This explanatory case study examined nine elementary teachers’ attitudes toward inclusive education in Odiongan North District, Romblon, between January and June 2025. Guided by the Social Model of Disability, Contact Theory, and the Theory of Planned Behavior, the study employed semi-structured, expert-validated focus group discussions, which were thematically analyzed to reveal four interrelated themes: moral and pedagogical motivations; contextual influences; gaps in formal professional development; and lived experiences. Insights informed a seven-module Inclusive Teaching Empowerment Series (ITES) addressing legal frameworks, differentiated instruction, co-teaching, reflective practice, and digital microlearning. The study highlights the need for sustained, context-responsive capacity building, leadership support, and resource allocation in rural, multigrade settings. Recommendations include integrating ITES into DepEd Learning Action Cells and formal peer-led workshops to scale inclusive practices.

Abstract

This study examines the shift from the traditional dayung - a communal boat-launching practice steeped in cooperation and shared labor—to individually crafted and self-reliant (“do-it-yourself)” launching innovations among fisherfolk in the Sogod Bay, Leyte, Philippines. The research uncovers various adaptive practices using semi-structured interviews and thematic analysis, including bamboo sliding mechanisms, detachable wheels, and makeshift floating docks. These locally engineered solutions reflect how coastal communities respond to evolving social, economic, and environmental constraints while preserving core aspects of cultural identity. Anchored in the Social Construction of Technology (SCOT) framework, the findings illustrate how fisherfolk actively reinterpret available resources and repurpose indigenous knowledge to meet livelihood demands, highlighting the community’s agency in shaping technology from the margins. This socio-technical evolution underscores the interplay between tradition and innovation, revealing how cultural resilience informs sustainable practices in small-scale fisheries.

Abstract

This case study investigates how hybrid communication strategies impact parental involvement at Pañas Elementary School in rural Cebu, Philippines. Using a qualitative single-case study design, the research explored how traditional methods (such as face-to-face meetings and printed notices) and digital tools (such as SMS and social media platforms) influence parent-school engagement. Data were gathered through semi-structured interviews and focus group discussions involving one school head, seven teachers, and ten parents. Thematic analysis revealed four core themes: Communication Channels, Customized Communication, Technology Integration, and Open and Transparent Communication. Findings highlight that parents appreciate communication that is timely, clear, and sensitive to local contexts. Mobile-based messaging and personal interactions were particularly valued for their convenience and reliability. These strategies resulted in two key outcomes: improved access to school information and stronger collaboration between parents and school personnel. The study emphasizes the need for inclusive, culturally responsive communication practices that foster trust, partnership, and shared accountability in education.

Abstract

Teaching is one of the most stressful occupations. Investigating the challenges and motivation influencing work engagement of high school teachers, intrinsic and extrinsic motivations are pivotal for cultivating a positive and satisfying mindset. The study aims to identify the specific challenges and motivations experienced by teachers. The researcher employed a quantitative research method The findings of the study indicate that most teacher-respondents are female, early middle-aged, married, and hold the position of Teacher I, with additional academic units towards a master’s degree. Interestingly, the teacher-respondents generally disagreed on encountering significant challenges in their work engagement. However, they unanimously agreed on the crucial role played by both intrinsic and extrinsic motivations in shaping their work engagement levels. Furthermore, the study revealed that there were no significant differences in the perceived challenges affecting teacher work engagement when respondents were grouped according to sex, age, civil status, teaching position, or highest educational attainment. These findings shed light on the demographic profile of teachers in the area under study and emphasize the importance of intrinsic and extrinsic motivators in fostering their engagement in the workplace. The study identified significant differences in teacher motivation based on their attitudes towards the teaching profession and the level of autonomy support they received. In response to these findings, the proposed intervention plan aims to tackle the identified challenges in work engagement and enhance teacher motivation. By addressing these issues, the intervention plan seeks to create a more supportive and motivating environment for teachers.

Abstract

The K–12 science curriculum emphasizes the development of essential 21st-century skills such as critical problem-solving, environmental literacy, innovation, and effective communication. Despite these curricular priorities, traditional lecture-based instruction often fails to cultivate higher-order thinking—particularly logical reasoning, which is foundational in science learning. This study investigates the effectiveness of Collaborative Game-Based Activities (CGBAs) as an instructional strategy to enhance students’ logical reasoning skills in science. Employing a quasi-experimental research design, the study assessed the quality of CGBA implementation, students’ baseline competency in logical reasoning, their progress across successive CGBA sessions, and overall improvement after the intervention. Grade 9 students participated in a series of CGBA sessions, with their logical reasoning abilities evaluated through pre-test and post-test assessments. Teacher rubric-based evaluations of CGBA quality revealed consistently high implementation fidelity, aligning well with instructional objectives. The findings indicated a significant improvement in students’ logical reasoning scores following CGBA exposure, with the majority advancing from “Satisfactory” to “Good” and “Very Good” performance levels. A paired-samples t-test confirmed this difference to be statistically significant (p < .001), supporting the intervention’s impact on academic performance. The study also affirmed that the assumptions required for parametric testing were met, enhancing the reliability of the findings. Overall, the study underscores the pedagogical value of integrating collaborative and game-based approaches to foster critical thinking, teamwork, and deep engagement with scientific concepts. By transforming passive instruction into active, inquiry-driven learning, CGBA offers a compelling model for strengthening logical reasoning and promoting meaningful science education.

Abstract

Gender disparity remains a persistent issue in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education, particularly within engineering and architecture programs. While national and institutional initiatives have promoted inclusivity, localized assessments are essential to determine whether these efforts translate into sustained enrolment equity. This study employed a quantitative descriptive-comparative design, drawing on institutional freshman enrolment data from Academic Year (AY) 2020–2021 to AY 2024–2025. A total of 10,052 enrolment records were analyzed across multiple programs, disaggregated by gender. Descriptive statistics, visual trend analysis, and a chi-square test for trend were applied to assess gender participation over time. Findings revealed fluctuating patterns of female enrolment, with a notable increase in AY 2021–2022 (+52.1%) followed by modest growth and stabilization. While some programs (e.g., Architecture, Chemical Engineering) approached gender balance, others (e.g., Electrical and Mechanical Engineering) remained strongly male-dominated. The chi-square test indicated no statistically significant linear trend in female participation across years, χ²(1, N = 10,052) = 1.68, p = .196. Although there are signs of progress in selected programs, the lack of a significant trend suggests that institutional efforts toward gender inclusion have not yet resulted in consistent, system-wide change. The study highlights the need for program-specific interventions, continuous monitoring, and intentional policy implementation to address persistent enrolment disparities in STEM fields.

Abstract

Agricultural extension is an essential strength in agricultural development and social innovation factor. It is a key that can capacitate sugarcane farmers to accelerate the adoption of technology in farm production. Furthermore, agricultural extension services are instrumental in bridging the gap between agricultural research and practical farming. This study aims to determine the influence of extension services on the production of sugarcane in the Philippines. Descriptive method of research was employed in the study. The respondents were 320 sugarcane farmers that were randomly identified from seven locations in the Visayas. The instrument used was the validated survey questionnaire used by Oñal, et al (2021). Results show that there is a significant difference in the production of sugarcane among location with a mean of 2.28 or an average of 50-64 TC/ha (ɑ=0.05). The advocacy on planting of high yielding varieties (HYVs) that are adaptable to sugarcane farms (m=3.87, ɑ=0.05) and the dissemination of different projects to the farmers (m=3.98, ɑ=0.05) had a significant impact on sugarcane production at >65 Tons/ha. Furthermore, the two agricultural extension services mentioned are moderately correlated with the production. The study recommends that the advocacy for planting of HYVs suitable to farms should be further prioritize including the strong dissemination of various agricultural development to bolster the sugarcane production in the area.
