Abstract

Mentorship in teacher education plays a vital role in the development of pre-service teachers by bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application. Effective mentorship fosters professional identity, enhances classroom management skills, and promotes long-term career satisfaction. This review aimed to explore the different models of mentorship in teacher education, their outcomes, challenges, and enablers to identify best practices and provide evidence for improving mentorship programs. A systematic review was conducted using databases such as ERIC, Scopus, and JSTOR. Inclusion criteria focused on peer-reviewed articles published between 2013 and 2024, with a specific focus on teacher education programs. Studies examining mentorship models, outcomes, and challenges were considered. The review identified several mentorship models, including traditional dyadic mentorship, peer and group mentoring, and online/e-mentoring. Key outcomes of mentorship include professional identity development, enhanced instructional skills, and increased teacher retention. Challenges, such as time constraints, mentor overload, and mismatched mentor-mentee pairings, were prevalent. Enablers like structured mentor training and reflective practices emerged as critical for successful mentorship programs. Findings highlight the need for structured, evidence-based mentorship programs in teacher education to improve teacher preparation and retention. Future research should focus on longitudinal and cross-cultural studies to explore the long-term effects of mentorship. This review contributes to the development of mentorship models that can be implemented to support teacher growth and retention globally.

Abstract

This systematic literature review examined how action research was used to address persistent challenges in physics education in the Philippines. Physics education played a key role in building scientific literacy, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills—competencies emphasized by the K to 12 curriculum under Republic Act No. 10533 and reinforced by DepEd Order No. 16, s. 2017, which promoted teacher-led research. The urgency for pedagogical innovation intensified during the COVID-19 pandemic, which disrupted traditional teaching and exposed limitations in laboratory access, digital readiness, and student engagement. Despite these developments, there had been no comprehensive synthesis of empirical studies documenting how action research supported physics instruction in the Philippine context. This review addressed that gap by consolidating findings from 14 peer-reviewed studies published between 2021 and 2025, identified through a PRISMA 2020, guided search across Scopus, Web of Science, Google Scholar, ERIC, and ScienceDirect. Qualitative thematic analysis revealed four dominant trends: experiential simulations and inquiry-based models that actively engaged learners in conceptual exploration and problem-solving; integration of technological tools such as PhET simulations, mobile learning platforms, and video-based instruction to enhance accessibility and interactivity; cultural contextualization, including the incorporation of indigenous games and ethno-STEM approaches to increase relevance and inclusivity; and gamification to promote motivation, collaboration, and sustained participation, particularly in underserved communities. These innovations demonstrated positive effects on student engagement, achievement, and teacher professional growth, yet challenges persisted. These included inadequate institutional support for sustained research, unequal access to technology, and difficulties in aligning innovations with standardized curricula. The review concluded that action research offered a systematic, evidence-based mechanism for refining teaching strategies, fostering reflective practice, and sustaining innovation. The findings provided a foundation for enhancing teacher training, shaping education policy, and promoting broader adoption of learner-centered, context-sensitive approaches in physics education.

Abstract

Effective communication and collaboration were vital competencies that students needed to master to enhance their work ethic in the 21st century. This study sought to investigate the relationship between communication, teamwork, and work ethic qualities in the context of Project-Based Learning (PBL). The sample for this study comprised students enrolled in an introductory immunology course at the Faculty of Biology, Malang State University, Indonesia. Data were analyzed using multiple regression and correlation analysis. The findings indicated a correlation among communication, collaboration, and work ethic skills. Communication and teamwork contributed 61.5% to students' work ethic skills in project-based learning. The project-based learning style was crucial for enhancing students' communication and collaboration abilities. Project-based learning also influenced students' work ethic. It was strongly recommended to implement the project-based learning approach in higher education institutions to enhance students' 21st-century competencies.
