Abstract

Various online businesses arose during the pandemic for people (unemployed, employed, student) needing extra income. However, some businesses didn't thrive during the same time period. This study aimed to have an in-depth understanding of the different challenges and success factors in setting up an online business for student entrepreneurs to be able to present proposed solutions. The researchers used a qualitative method and conducted a focused group discussion (FGD) of 11 selected respondents through purposive sampling. A registered psychometrician administered FGD to ensure data integrity. Thematic analysis was used to analyze the data obtained from the FGD. The mentioned challenges are divided into four (4) categories: social, technological, economic, and legal. Nevertheless, the study revealed that the most mentioned challenges experienced by the selected online business owners are capital constraints, inflation, difficulty using social media sites, and brand name issues. On the other hand, the success factors stated are effective marketing, affordable pricing, sales promotions, and brand loyalty of customers.

Abstract

This phenomenological qualitative research study aimed to investigate the lived experiences of social studies teachers in a hybrid learning class amidst COVID–19 pandemic. There were five participants who were purposive and selected. Interviews were recorded, transcribed, and thematically analysed. Based on the findings, sixteen subthemes and four major themes emerged, and these are: Challenges in Hybrid Learning, Stability of Internet Connection, Necessary Support from Administration, and Coping Mechanisms of the Teachers. It was revealed that the teachers faced challenges in the delivery of hybrid learning classes, such as quality of equipment class, equipment, internet connectivity, preparation of instructional materials, and motivation techniques to be used in everyday classes. However, the school took action by providing basic computer equipment like speakers and headsets, internet providers and some materials they needed for teaching. In this new normal, flexibility, adaptability, adjustments, and considerations are needed based on how one understands, responds, and manages an ever-changing environment. It is recommended that the school administration intensify their assistance and provide high-quality equipment, complete materials and various trainings for their hybrid learning teachers. In online classes of hybrid learning, the teachers need to think of varied motivational techniques that will make the students active participants. Teachers may also need to attend webinars and training on the new strategies for conducting hybrid classes to enhance their skills in teaching online and face-to-face classes at the same time. Future researchers may conduct further studies using other research designs.

Abstract

This study focused on the lived experience of employees in the Department of Science and Technology–Forest Product Research and Development Institute as to the motivation from monetary incentives or fringe benefits. The research design used was qualitative, with phenomenology as an approach. The study explored the experiences and motivation of Generation X and millennial employees in the Department of Science and Technology–Forest Product Research and Development Institute. Based on the results, employees reflected on their overall experiences that they manifest on non-monetary benefits or fringe benefits rather than monetary incentives they received. The employees were acquainted with the experience that arose from the testimony, which showed that motivated employees were more likely to be productive, happier in their jobs, and remained with their company for a longer amount of time by creating a great work atmosphere. Giving employees chances to learn and develop, enough incentives and benefits for excellent performance resulted in their satisfaction with their work. The researcher considered the employees experiencing job satisfaction and dissatisfaction based on Frederick Herzberg's theory, also known as the Two Factor Theory that developed to better understand an employee's attitude and drive toward the job. As an output, the researcher suggested establishing a committee of employees at the Department of Science and Technology – Forest Products Research and Development Institute named 4C's or Cope Capacity Counseling Committee, which aimed to promote financial, emotional, physical, social, and psychological concerns of the employee's motivation at their workplace.

Abstract

This study investigated the lived experience of public elementary school principals concerning the challenges encountered in professional and training needs in the new normal. The research design used was qualitative with phenomenology as an approach. Using the interpretative phenomenological approach, the study generated ten superordinate themes. Based on the consolidated findings and reflections, the study recommends that the Schools Division of Calamba City may focus on the provision of technical assistance, mentoring, and coaching to the school heads in crafting and formulating professional development activities intended for the challenges and issues encountered by the teachers from the classroom setting to the school set-up. In addition, School heads may provide different professional development activities aside from the monthly school-based learning action cell session. Teachers may provide feedback and suggestions to their school heads in dealing with their needs in the classroom and school as their second home. Future researchers who plan to investigate the same topic may use this as one of their references. Other factors which may influence the implementation of professional development training may be subjected to future studies. More so, other appropriate methods and designs may also be used to further validate this study's findings.

Abstract

This paper examines the complex interrelationship between cultural forces and political attitudes and behaviors. Through an extensive literature review, expert interviews, and rigorous content analysis, the research illuminates how cultural values, beliefs, and norms fundamentally shape individuals' political ideologies, policy preferences, partisan affiliations, civic engagement, and voting patterns. Findings demonstrate adherence to traditional cultural values like religiosity and nationalism predicts conservative political orientations, while progressive values like secularism and multiculturalism predict liberal orientations. The study also uncovers how politicians and media strategically exploit cultural symbols and narratives to frame issues and manipulate public opinion to their advantage. Prevailing cultural attitudes regarding duties and efficacy as citizens are shown to influence voter turnout and election outcomes. Promising reforms to address cultural biases include increasing access to diverse perspectives and critical civic education, promoting inclusive institutions and cross-cultural dialogue, and fostering political literacy. This research underscores the need for democratic processes and policies attuned to diverse cultural standpoints to pursue shared interests equitably. It concludes that comprehending the cultural antecedents of political behaviors and interpretations is essential for just, effective governance in pluralistic societies.

Abstract

Throughout Indonesia's history, clothing has served multiple purposes, representing not only social status but also an individual's position in society. From the eras of Hindu-Buddhist influence to the advent of Islam and into the modern era, Indonesian attire has been a canvas colored by evolving customs and cultural shifts. As the 20th century began, a dynamic transformation in clothing styles emerged, spurred by the rise of Indonesian intellectuals in response to Dutch ethical policies. This change was evident among Indonesian Islamic intellectuals as well, where traditional robes and sarongs, once emblematic of Muslim attire, lost their primary significance. This study aims to delve into the fashion choices of Indonesian Islamic intellectuals during the early 20th century. Employing a historical research method comprising four stages—heuristics, criticism, interpretation, and historiography—the research seeks to uncover the influence of Western fashion on these intellectuals' clothing choices. The findings of this study illuminate how Western fashion elements such as suits, ties, hats, and shirts became commonplace among Indonesian Islamic intellectuals during this transformative period.
