Abstract

Purpose of the study: Out-of-field teaching is a concern that results in teaching ineffectiveness, compromising quality education. However, there is still limited extant literature available, particularly on the experiences of non-government junior high school teachers. This study specifically explored the lived experiences of the out-of-field teachers in the provinces of Pampanga and Tarlac in the Philippines. Methodology: Ten basic education teachers particularly junior high school teachers were tapped in order to achieve the purpose of the study. Also, maximum variation was utilized, incorporating convenience and snowball techniques to ensure diverse perspectives. The Colaizzi method in analyzing the data was used through a positivist view. Member checking was equally observed to meticulously capture the core experiences of the informants and to ensure the trustworthiness of the data.] Main Findings: The findings unveiled both positive and negative experiences that were eventually clustered into five categories: (1) challenges of out-of-field teaching, (2) strategies to overcome challenges, (3) opportunities for growth, (4) impact on students, and (5) areas for improvement. Consistent with the recent works of literature, this study highlights the contrasting aspects of out-of-field teaching—its challenges and potential opportunities. Novelty/Originality of this study: As a contrast to the usual assumption that out-of-field teaching only creates negative experiences, not only among teachers but also among learners, the challenges and opportunities of this phenomenon offer valuable insights that can serve as a cornerstone for policymakers and school administrators in helping and supporting out-of-field teachers. Contextualized assistance and targeted preparations can guarantee quality education

Abstract

Purpose of the Study: This study focuses on evaluating the degree of TEP of PIL on TSE in Cambodia. It also seeks to identify how TEP on PIL varies according to different demographic characteristics. Furthermore, the researcher aims to uncover whether teachers’ demographic characteristics influence their perception of instructional leadership from their principals. Methodology: The researcher employed descriptive statistics to measure TEP on PIL and used independent sample t-tests and one-way ANOVA to examine differences in TEP on PIL across various demographic characteristics. A total of 295 PJHSTs participated in this study, all of whom were pursuing higher education degrees at a private university in Phnom Penh. Main Findings: The results of the research indicate that PJHSTs have diverse perceptions of PIL. These positive perceptions suggest that PIL significantly influences TSE. Additionally, the findings revealed that teachers’ gender had a significant impact on their perceptions of PIL (p < 0.05). However, no significant impact of gender differences on TSE was found. The study also highlighted additional findings, as presented in the results section. Novelty/Originality of the Study: These findings provide valuable insights into fostering TSE through effective PIL in Cambodian school context. PIL emerges as a critical factor in enhancing TSE, as teachers with high self-efficacy tend to perform their teaching tasks more effectively. Consequently, school principals, academic staff, teachers, and other stakeholders can apply these findings to improve institutional success. Future research should explore other leadership styles and additional factors that may influence TSE.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This meta-analysis aimed to determine the effectiveness of Strategic Intervention Materials (SIM) in improving Filipino students' science and mathematics performance. Methodology: Fifteen eligible studies from three databases: Google Scholar, Crossref, and Semantic Scholar were chosen using Harzing’s Publish and Perish tool. The studies underwent meta-analysis using the Jamovi Tool. Main Findings: Using Strategic Intervention Material has a large average effect size (ES = 1.60) with most of the studies obtaining positive effect sizes (87%). In connection, the moderator analysis showed paper-based SIM has a relatively larger effect size than digital SIM, elementary level obtained a larger effect size than Junior and Senior High and science has larger effect size than mathematics. Nevertheless, all moderators obtained large effect sizes which means SIM is an effective classroom intervention across the different types, grade levels and content areas. Novelty/Originality of this study: This research introduces new insights into classroom intervention by exploring the use of Strategic Intervention Material (SIM) which was conceptualized and commonly used in the Philippines. The study opens discourse on the use of SIM to improve the learners’ science and mathematics achievement for possible adoption on a global scale.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study explores the most frequently encountered sight words among multilingual learners in early education. It aims to compare their recognition skills across three languages—first language, national language, and English—highlighting the complexities of sight word acquisition in multilingual settings and addressing a gap in existing research. Methodology: This study employed a cross-language explanatory sequential design to examine sight word recognition among multilingual learners, specifically Ilokano speakers in the Philippines, where multilingualism is common. Most Filipinos speak at least two languages: their first language, along with Filipino (the national language) and English, which are used in formal education, government, and media. This multilingual context presents unique challenges in sight word recognition, as learners encounter sight words across these three languages. The study analyzed the frequency of sight word occurrence in educational materials and assessed recognition abilities in Ilokano, Tagalog, and English. Main Findings: The data shows that sight word recognition improves across grades, initially varying by language but converging by Grade 3. Multilingual learners' recognition rates differ based on their language background, with early proficiency in certain languages impacting initial recognition. As learners progress, proficiency in one language influences others, explaining differences in Grade 1 and Grade 2 performance. By Grade 3, recognition rates converge, reflecting research that suggests multilingual learners achieve similar proficiency levels across languages over time.
