Abstract

This study examined the challenges and coping strategies of multigrade teachers in the Suyo District. The goal was to suggest policy actions that could improve teaching and learning in rural schools. The research used a sequential exploratory mixed-methods design. It started with qualitative interviews to identify common themes and then conducted a quantitative survey to confirm and expand upon the findings. Results showed eight major challenges: (1) time management, (2) curriculum demands, (3) instructional difficulties, (4) lack of instructional materials, (5) classroom management issues, (6) learner diversity, (7) limited parental support, and (8) insufficient professional development. The quantitative analysis confirmed that the three most pressing concerns were learner diversity, curriculum complexity, and insufficient professional development, as these showed the highest levels of seriousness among respondents. Teachers tackled these issues using coping strategies in eight areas: time management, instructional flexibility, differentiated instruction, resourcefulness, classroom management skills, adaptive teaching, peer school support, and participation in professional development. The study concluded that multigrade instruction is a viable way to ensure equal education when teachers receive enough support from institutions and the community. It recommends creating a multigrade-specific curriculum framework, strengthening peer mentoring and Learning Action Cells (LACs), improving professional learning programs, enhancing access to teaching resources, and increasing community and parental involvement.

Abstract

This research study looked into the prospective implementation of the Smart-Access Community Information System (SACIS). The respondents comprised 20 licensed local geodetic engineers who are duly registered with the Geodetic Engineers of the Philippines (GEP), as well as 30 Geodetic Engineering students from Baguio Central School. The study utilized a developmental-descriptive research design in conjunction with a descriptive survey approach to obtain comprehensive insights into stakeholder perceptions. Data were primarily collected through a structured questionnaire, which was carefully adapted and refined to ensure its validity, clarity, and appropriateness for addressing the research objectives. Based on the data collected, the study revealed several key findings: The current level of awareness regarding Smart Access to Land Information was assessed and established. Findings indicate that the Smart-Access platform is highly effective in terms of accessibility, accuracy, efficiency, and transparency. Moreover, the potential challenges that may arise during the future implementation of the Smart Access Community Information System (SACIS) are perceived as very much serious by the respondents, underscoring the need for careful planning and mitigation strategies to ensure successful deployment. The study concludes that the community has moderate awareness of Smart Access Community Information System (SACIS), understanding its objectives and benefits but showing varied knowledge across its purpose, services, and impact. The Smart-Access platform is considered highly effective, improving accessibility, accuracy, efficiency, and transparency compared to traditional methods, and is recognized for enhancing service delivery. However, respondents also perceive potential challenges—such as limited digital infrastructure, low digital literacy, and resistance to change.

Abstract

Assessment literacy plays an important role in language teaching, helping teachers make the right decisions to support learners' learning. This qualitative case study clarified the language assessment literacy of a university EFL teacher at a public university in Vietnam. The data were collected through a semi-structured interview and analysed according to Giraldo’s framework, which consists of three dimensions: knowledge, skills, and principles. The findings show that the participant has a clear conceptual understanding of the different assessment purposes, closely align with expected learning outcomes and program objectives. However, she encounters numerous challenges at the macro and micro levels and must negotiate her way to meet the standards while helping her students reach their final objectives. The study illustrates how language assessment literacy is perceived and translated into practice in a higher education context in Vietnam and proposes suggestions regarding professional development and future research.

Abstract

Amidst the evolving landscape of science education, addressing persistent learning gaps requires the integration of targeted pedagogical tools tailored to diverse learner needs. Hence, this study investigated the effectiveness of a developed Strategic Intervention Material (SIM) in enhancing the academic performance of Grade 11 students in Earth and Life Science. Employing a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest design, the study involved 60 learners, randomly assigned into Control (N=30) and Experimental (N=30) groups. Findings revealed that both groups initially exhibited a lower average proficiency level, with pre-test mean scores of 7.23 and 8.23, respectively, highlighting significant learning gaps. Following the intervention, the Experimental group’s performance improved substantially to a superior level, achieving a post-test mean of 21.23 (MPS = 84.93), whereas the Control group showed minimal gains (Mean = 8.13; MPS = 32.53). Furthermore, there is a significant difference between the raw scores of the respondents in the pre-test and post-test (p=0.000). The results demonstrate that the SIM effectively addressed least-mastered competencies and bridged learning gaps in Earth and Life Science more effectively than traditional approach. This study likewise underscores the value of localized intervention materials in fostering academic resiliency and mastery among secondary learners. Ultimately, these results suggest that educational policymakers should institutionalize the development of localized SIMs and integrate them into formal remedial programs to provide a scalable solution for addressing achievement gaps in science.

Abstract

Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has become increasingly important in science education, particularly in supporting Inquiry-Based Learning (IBL) in physics, where learners often encounter difficulties in understanding abstract concepts. This study examined the ICT tools utilized by junior high school physics teachers and the challenges they encountered in implementing inquiry-based learning in the Schools Division of Ilocos Norte, Philippines (SDOIN).The study employed a descriptive-quantitative research design with qualitative support. Using non-probability purposive sampling, 126 junior high school physics teachers from selected public schools participated in the study, while 25 teachers were interviewed to provide qualitative insights. Data were collected using a researcher-developed survey questionnaire and an expert-validated semi-structured interview guide. Frequency counts and percentages were used to describe the participants' profiles, while mean and ranking were employed to analyze ICT utilization. Qualitative responses were analyzed using thematic analysis.The findings showed that the most used ICT tools were those that were easily accessible such as multimedia presentation with the use of projector, digital camera or mobile phone, and virtual laboratory or simulation. But the overall use of ICT in inquiry-based learning was found to be moderate. The thematic analysis showed that the use of ICT in inquiry was hindered by time constraints, lack of resources and infrastructural capacity, low readiness of the learners for inquiry, diversity and participation of learners, and communication.

Abstract

This paper is a bibliometric review of literature on integrating moral reasoning in information Technology (IT) education that aims to explore its publication situation, significant sources, research topic, temporal trends, and gaps in the literature. Through bibliometric techniques, the research reviewed 334 articles published in 179 sources in 1983-2025 from Scopus database. The results indicate that the sector has shown progressive growth with a rate of 4.63 per year and on average the documents are 7.37 years of age. The literature is highly conference-oriented as the majority of publications are through conference papers, which shows the rapid and practice-driven nature of knowledge dissemination. Most of the publication come from ASEE, FIE, ITICSE, ACM conference proceedings, and SIGCSE-related journals, which means that the discipline is largely influenced by engineering and computing education communities. Term-frequency output reveals that the most common terms are students, ethics, curriculum, computing education, and computer science education, indicating that the area is main concern with the incorporation of ethical knowledge and reasoning into formal education of technology. Themes that develop based on artificial intelligence, machine learning and AI ethics also show how the field reacts to modern technological trends.  Some of gaps in the analysis are low international collaboration and inadequacy of research on effective pedagogical strategies to teach ethics. Overall, the findings indicate that integrating moral reasoning in IT education is an emerging and developing discipline that is relevant in equipping students with ethical consciousness, critical thinking, and professional accountability in a technological society.

Abstract

This study explores the experiences of school leaders in Masbate Province who identify with diverse Sexual Orientation, Gender Identity, and Expression (SOGIE). It examines their trials, triumphs, and how they manage conflicts within workplace learning environments. Using purposive sampling and a qualitative, phenomenological methodology, the study emphasizes real-life challenges caused by institutional discrimination, bias, and communication breakdowns. Despite these challenges, these leaders consistently employ inclusive leadership approaches to foster equal and supportive school environments, demonstrating emotional intelligence and resilience. Findings reveal that SOGIE-diverse leaders face challenges rooted from both organizational structures and interpersonal relations, often worsened by exclusion. They do, however, address issues using tactics such as private talks, professional development, emotional de-escalation, and strict protocol adherence. Their leadership includes empathy, adaptability, and a strong commitment to diversity. Creating inclusive school cultures and engaging the broader community is also crucial for effective conflict resolution. While institutional initiatives, such as Project PATAS and Gender and Development (GAD) programs, aim to support inclusivity, their effectiveness is limited by inconsistent implementation and weak accountability.  The study emphasizes the importance of policy adjustments and continued leadership training for persons from SOGIE-diverse backgrounds. These leaders play a vital role in encouraging respect, diversity, and inclusivity, which benefits both educators and learners.
