Abstract

The basic education system in the Philippines has transitioned from K-10 to K-12, introducing new courses in universities, including Science, Technology, and Society (STS). This course is valuable as it links science to technology and industry, vital for national growth. With STS now part of the curriculum, periodic assessments are essential to evaluate how instructors and learners are adapting, especially after the pandemic shifted classes to online and blended modalities. This narrative analysis research study was conducted to examine the online teaching and learning practices of students and teachers. The study suggests that students prefer collaborative and creative activities, asynchronous learning, practical content, and modules with visual aids rather than dense text. Teachers support students' education by using recorded videos for discussions, integrating creative assessments into various tasks, and maintaining communication through mobile instant messaging (MIM). To improve the online teaching and learning of STS, several factors are necessary. Modules should be clear and visually engaging, and content must be accurate and up-to-date. It is also important to revisit STS as a general education course to evaluate its relevance and impact, and to adapt content to local contexts. Assessments should prioritize quality over quantity, and asynchronous classes should be supported with face-to-face instruction to effectively blend online and in-person learning. Encouraging collaboration among educators to share best practices and resources is also recommended. These measures may help improve the implementation and effectiveness of STS in the Philippines' educational system to meet the present needs of both students and teachers.

Abstract

The lack of concern teacher education for the formation of vocational identity and the controversy about relation between moral and ego development to identity formation become the reason why this research was conducted. The objective of this research to describe the causal relationship between three constructs. The design used is a cross-sectional survey with descriptive methods. The participants in this study were 465 prospective teacher students at a state university that provides teacher education in Indonesia, who were recruited using a multistage cluster sampling technique. The Defining Issues Test, Ego Development Inventory, and Vocational Exploration and Commitment Questionnaire were used to reveal the data, which were then processed statistically. The configuration of morals and ego in identity formation is mapped in the contingency table. In contrast, the causal analysis is tested through path analysis. From the results of this study, no systematic map was found regarding the configuration of morals and ego in the formation of vocational identity status. Unlike moral considerations, ego development has a positive effect on the vocational identity status of students. Moral development is not correlated with ego development and vocational identity status. This study also successfully revealed theoretical, methodological, and practical implications.

Abstract

This research aims to synthesize empirical findings on high school teachers' digital communication competence through a meta-analytic approach, addressing inconsistencies in existing literature and the urgent need to enhance educators' digital literacy. The study investigates the conclusions of 42 articles published between 2008 and 2022, focusing on the theme of digital communication competence. A systematic review was conducted using the PRISMA framework, involving a three-stage process of identification, screening, and inclusion of relevant studies. The analysis revealed a common true effect size across all studies, but significant variability in effect sizes, with a variance (τ²) of 421.92 and a standard deviation (τ) of 20.5408. The Q-Profile indicated substantial heterogeneity (Q=6090163.73, p=0, I²=100%), highlighting inconsistencies in the conclusions drawn from the pooled articles. Additionally, the funnel plot analysis showed skewness, indicating potential publication bias. These findings underscore the need for further research to explore the interaction between pedagogical and technological knowledge, ultimately aiming to improve digital communication competence among high school teachers. The study concludes that addressing these inconsistencies is crucial for developing effective strategies to enhance educators' digital literacy in an increasingly digital educational landscape.

Abstract

Challenges facing higher education in photography remain the perennial difficulty of ensuring that the students deeply understand the technical and aesthetic concepts. Prior studies have found that many students still do not grasp the ideas of lighting techniques, composition, and camera operation. The problems directly affect the quality of their photographic products. An innovative learning medium that is highly visually attractive and can actively engage students in the learning process is required to rectify this situation. This study, therefore, designs an interactive multimedia-based instructional medium whose development is integrated with a Project-Based Learning (PjBL) approach to improve photography education at the higher education level. The model used for development is the Lee & Owens model, consisting of five stages: analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The choice of this model was based on its relevance to multimedia development, which highlights structured content and real-world outcomes. The developed media underwent validation by media experts and content experts and through individual checks in small groups and field testing. Results of the validation placed it at very good and feasible for use, affirming the proposition that integrating interactive multimedia and PjBL effectively supports photography learning, increases student engagement, and produces meaningful and contextual educational experiences.

Abstract

The rapid development of digital technology requires teachers to improve their competence in effectively integrating technology into the learning process on an ongoing basis. Pedagogical and professional competence are essential in ensuring that teachers can adapt to technological changes and create meaningful and engaging learning experiences. However, many educators face challenges in optimally utilizing digital tools, so it is important to examine the relationship between their competence and the integration of digital technology. This study aims to analyze the impact of teachers' pedagogical and professional competencies on the integration of digital technology into tlearning. Using an ex-post facto quantitative research design, this study was conducted at SD Muhammadiyah Karangkajen Yogyakarta, involving 39 teachers selected through non-probability sampling, so the results have limitations in external validity and generalizability. The findings should be interpreted with caution. The research results show a significant correlation between pedagogical competencies and digital technology integration (r = 0.655, p < 0.05) as well as between professional competencies and digital technology integration (r = 0.747, p < 0.05), confirming the influence of both competencies. These findings highlight the importance of continuous professional development to strengthen teachers' ability to integrate digital tools into their teaching. This study suggests that developing pedagogical and professional competencies is essential to maximize the potential of digital technology education, which ultimately enhances students' learning experiences.
