Authors:   Batangas State University Batangas City, Philippines, M. Cruzada Ronalyn , D. Arellano Agnes
Published: May 2022

This study developed game-based activities (GBA) in Grade 9 Mathematics. Respondents were 133 Grade 9 Mathematics Teachers from the Division of Batangas Province. The authors applied a descriptive-correlational research design where the questionnaire was used as main instrument to gather the data. Correspondingly, frequency distribution, percentage, weighted mean, composite mean, and chi-square were utilized to treat gathered data. Findings revealed that majority of Mathematics teachers were early adult female with 5 years and below teaching experience, have attended seminars/training on the pedagogical approach, and holders of bachelor's degree. GBA were utilized by the teachers in motivation, engagement, performance, and application. It was revealed that there is a significant association between extent of utilizing GBA for motivation and the highest educational attainment (HEA) and seminars/training, between extent of utilizing GBA for engagement and sex, HEA, and teaching experience (TE) and between extent of utilizing GBA for performance and age, HEA, and TE. On the other hand, there is no a significant association between extent of utilizing GBA for motivation and age, sex and TE, between extent of utilizing GBA for engagement and age and seminars/training, and between extent of utilizing GBA for performance and sex and seminars/training. Lastly, there is no significant association between the extent of utilizing GBA for application and age, sex, HEA, TE, and seminars/training.

Published: May 2022

Suicide was the second leading cause of death among 15-29-year-olds globally in 2016 (WHO, 2019). There is an alarming increase in the number of young people experiencing depression which often leads to suicide. The State affirms the basic right of all Filipinos to mental health as well as the fundamental rights of people who require mental health services (R.A. 11036 or Mental Health Act Section No.2, 2019). This study determines the mental health issues of selected junior high school students through the use of the six-item Kutcher Adolescent Depression Scale, interviews about its causes and possible solutions as well as determines its direct implication to transformative educational leadership policy. The six-item Kutcher Adolescent Depression Scale was utilized in this study. Based on the findings of the study, half of the 177 respondents hardly ever had thoughts, plans, or actions about suicide or self-harm. However, some students are having these thoughts and they need to be helped. After the survey, a random interview revealed that family problems may lead to depression. The respondents identified the need for quality personal relationships fostered through heart-to-heart talk, quality time, friendship, acceptance, respect, understanding, and non-judgmental attitude from the entire educating community. They also mentioned the need for a comprehensive school mental health program (cf. R.A 11036), provide professional help and close follow-up as well as lessening the academic pressures. To conclude, the youth of today who seem to be independent and have many “online friends” in social media still long for quality relationships especially in their families. As a recommendation, the educating community especially parents must have quality time and heart-toheart talk with their children (the students) despite their hectic schedule. There is also a need for a comprehensive school mental health program (R.A 11036) to promote transformative educational leadership.

The Philippines is a disaster-prone spot in the Asian continent, which calls for proactive response vital in disaster mitigation and adaptation. For a program to be successful, it must involve the citizens from the national to the barangay level. This descriptive study investigated the perceptions of community residents of San Francisco, Iriga City, and Karuhatan, Valenzuela City, towards Disaster Risk Reduction and Management (DRRM) programs as proactive measures in promoting a culture of safety and community resilience in times of disaster or emergency. Thirty residents from each community answered a community survey. The responses underwent frequencies, and the percentage calculation. The study results showed a generally affirmative perception of both groups on the citywide disaster preparedness campaign through DRRM programs. However, the community responses on four categories: (1) Disaster Legislation, (2) Vulnerability to Disaster, (3) Disaster or Emergency Awareness, and (4) Disaster or Emergency Preparedness were relatively high in the Iriga group, which indicated a relatively high level of involvement in DRRM programs and a high level of preparedness for disasters. The Valenzuela group turned out to be high in disaster legislation and moderate in the other three areas, which indicated a moderately high level of involvement and preparedness. Thus, more efforts were needed to increase community understanding and resiliency.

This research addressed the gaps in the current tourist recording system of Bohol Tourism Offices as it uses manual process in counting the tourist visiting each destination via logbooks. Accordingly, some tourists are not counted because some of them failed to register on the logbooks or only the van driver or the tour guide’s name is registered and only indicates the number of tourists. Tourism Application for Management and Inventory (TAppMI) tried to solve the gaps. With TAppMI, the tourists are counted fairly because they only have to tap their cards or souvenir items in every tourist destination. Without those, the entry of tourists is not allowed. This system is composed of RFID Cards or Souvenir Items with combine RFID, Microcontrollers, and a webserver. The proper accounting of reports is done in the main tourism office via a Webpage that features a one-stop dashboard that shows the logs from every tourist destination. This system ensures that every guest reaches their tourist destination based on their itinerary and can also be a tool in tracing them in case of distress. It also uses the AgileScrum methodology of software engineering that enables the researchers to deal with a task by breaking it into phases, including consistent effort with project stakeholders and constant development and iteration in every phase.

Published: May 2022

Co-curricular programs are fundamental part in the educational process and are designed to support students’ holistic development. The Outcomes-Based Co-Curricular Program (OBCoP) was conceived by a state university in Manila as part of its advocacy for outcomes-based education (OBE). The OBCoP organizes and reviews outcomes-based co-curricular activities to facilitate the development of nonacademic and lifelong skills among university students. Henceforth, this study conducted formative assessment to examine the program delivery and the quality of its implementation using both quantitative through survey questionnaire and qualitative approaches through focus group discussions to gather data from students, student leaders, organization/ club advisers, and program implementers. Quantitative data were analyzed by examining the mean rating scores of the respondents in each item while qualitative data were analyzed through content analysis. Findings revealed that the OBCoP has a significant role in student outcomes encompassing both academic and non-academic domains. Across students’ assessment of the quality of their respective student organizations, their perception on co-curricular activities, and their perceived impact of co-curricular activities, the findings indicate a positive view of their experiences as student organization members or leaders within the OBCoP. In consonance with the quantitative findings, the role of OBCoP on student development as reflected in the identified themes of OBCoP as enabler of student outcomes and OBCoP as a bridge between student life and professional life, is also indicative of the positive view of students on OBCoP and its contribution to their lifelong learning and holistic development. This study recommends outcomes-based co-curricular programs for universities which adopted outcomes-based education framework. This study further suggests that there must be a more systematic approach in integrating academic and cocurricular learning experiences and that the outcomes-based co-curricular programs undergo internal quality assurance processes.

Pedagogical Content Knowledge (PCK) is generally accepted to be necessary for teachers to deliver quality instructions and promote significant learning among pupils. Thus, research on Teachers’ PCK is highly relevant. Although there have been numerous researches exploring PCK in different areas such as Mathematics, Science and Language Education, limited studies have been conducted focusing on Teachers’ PCK in Music Education. This study examined the pedagogical content knowledge in music education among public elementary teachers in the District of Mariveles, Bataan, SY 2019-2020. In addition, this study also investigated the challenges faced by teachers in teaching music. Descriptive research design was utilized, and data were obtained through questionnaire and interview from 54 elementary teachers who were selected purposively. Gathered data were encoded and analyzed in SPSS using frequency, percentage and mean for descriptive data. One-Way ANOVA was used to identify significant variations on teachers’ pedagogical content knowledge in music when respondents were grouped by profile. Significant findings of the study revealed that that respondents have insufficient knowledge on the content and pedagogy of music in the elementary level. Data further divulged that teachers’ lack of knowledge on the subject, the negative attitude of pupils towards the subject, lack of facilities, and lack of teaching resources/materials were the main challenges faced by teachers in teaching music. Lastly, it was found that teachers’ content knowledge in music varied significantly when they were grouped based on the number of relevant seminars and trainings they attended. Also, teachers’ pedagogical knowledge in music was found to have significant variations when they were grouped based on the specialization and number of relevant seminars and trainings they attended.

There has been a trend in applying green practices in restaurants. In lieu of this, Solenad, Nuvali as a famous mall in Sta. Rosa City, Laguna houses different potential restaurants. The researchers aimed to determine and analyse the gathered data concerning the significant difference on the assessment of green practices among selected restaurants in Laguna, grouped according to their profile. The study’s main concept is green practices. This concept has four aspects, examined by the researchers, including Energy Conservation, Water Conservation, Proper Waste Disposal, and Food Packaging. Descriptive method and survey questionnaires were used to collect data and information. The respondents were comprised of the selected restaurants’ employees. The survey questionnaires were distributed consisting questions related with the research topic. The statistical methods used in the study were Frequency, Percentage, Weighted Mean, and ANOVA (Analysis of Variance). The results show that the respondents recognized energy conservation as one of the green practices often applied by restaurants with the exemption of “the restaurant turns off the steam supply in steam cooking vessels when not in use”, which ranked lowest. In terms of water conservation, the respondents assessed that regular inspection for leaks and repair was practiced often by restaurants. The respondents believed that the restaurants often used small portions of food supplies to lessen food waste. However, the respondents evaluated segregation of waste products as the least observed practice by the restaurants. The result also shows that there was no significant relationship between the profile of the respondents such as age, gender, educational attainment and the green practices namely energy conservation, water conservation, proper waste management, and food packaging and furniture.

Published: May 2022

Waste is an unavoidable by product of human activities. Economic development, urbanization and improving living standards in cities have led to an increase in the quantity and complexity of generated wastes. There is a growing need to evaluate whether lessons learned in the classroom are practiced at home. In connection, ecological waste management should be integrated in educational instruction. With that, the researcher determined the level of ecological waste management practices among Second Year Bachelor of Elementary Education(BSED) students of the Cebu Technological University – Tuburan Campus during Summer class of Academic Year 2016 – 2017, and its relationship with their performance in Ecology subject. To achieve the purpose of this investigation, the researcher utilized a quantitative, non-experimental approach specifically the descriptive – correlational survey method with adapted questionnaire; the weighted mean was utilized to assess the ecological solid waste management while Chi Square Test was used to test the association between the performance of the respondents and their practices on solid waste management. Findings revealed that the respondents “sometimes” performed what they have learned. Results showed that there is a highly significant association between the performance of students and their ecological solid waste management practices. Ten (10) least performed practices were identified and became the basis for creating IEC materials. The study concluded that the higher the students’ grades in the Ecology subject, the more likely they will practice what they have learned. Information Education Campaign materials are, therefore recommended to further improve their level of practices.

Published: May 2022

The Special Curricular Program in Science, Technology and Engineering is developed to cater students whose interests are in the fields of Science and Mathematics. To achieve its goals, the program enhances its basic education curriculum by offering additional science and mathematics subjects. Financial assistance is provided as well to schools implementing the program. However, the program seems to lack evaluation. There are no means of monitoring the students’ performance, and no attempts were made to determine whether these students pursued Science-and-Mathematics related courses after graduation. Along this line, this study aimed to evaluate the program by comparing the performances of students who graduated in the program to those who did not. It also investigated whether these students tend to pursue career paths along the fields of science and mathematics. Earth Science and General Mathematics scores of 177 Grade 11 students from different academic strands were analyzed using Multivariate Analysis of Variance and Chi-square test. Results showed that there was a significant difference between the students’ Earth Science and General Mathematics scores when grouped according to their junior-high program; that is, students who graduated from the program performed better than those who did not. On the other hand, there was no interaction found between the students’ performance and gender. A significant association between the students’ junior-high program and strands was also established; that is, majority of the students who graduated from the program is in the STEM strand, which prepares students for careers along the fields of science and mathematics. Despite the results, further studies may be done to include a wider range of variables that would better capture students’ performance.

Using true experimental research design, the following results were obtained. The least mastered topics were: Cell Division, Genetics and Digestive System which were differentiated. The activities and lesson plans used in the differentiated group were tailored on their learning styles. The researcher used Percentage Frequency Distributions and Ranking Arithmetic Mean, Coefficient Variation, Standard Deviation, F test and Randomized Block Design using One Way Anova as statistical tools. A significant difference between the posttest and pretest scores of the two groups was identified. Differentiated group had greater achievement compared to traditional group. When categorized according to their learning styles, it was revealed that there was no significant difference in their post achievement scores. Lastly, a significant difference was found among the change scores of the differentiated group when categorized according to their learning styles. Findings revealed that using differentiated teaching strategies was effective in increasing the achievement level of students. In creating lesson plans and activities, congruency of the learning input in the learning styles of the students must be considered.

Published: May 2022

Research shows that engineers are weak in communications skills; thus, engineering graduates often have lesser opportunity of being hired by the industry right after graduation. The school prepares engineering students to be adept in English because of its worldwide use. Enhanced communication skills in English can result to an improved social life and better job opportunities. This study determined the relationship of language performance, academic performance and their effect to job-placement of Fourth- and Fifth-year Computer and Civil Engineering students who were enrolled in Computer-aided Interactive Language Studies (CILS) for two semesters at Sultan Kudarat State University, College of Engineering, Isulan, Sultan Kudarat, Philippines. Specifically, it sought to figure out whether improved language performance in communication skills can improve their chances of being employed easily, especially in their fields of specialization. Quasi-experimental research was used to determine their relationship. Correlation T-test, Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and Post-Hoc test were the tools used for analysis of data. Pre-test and post-test results showed that with CILS, students’ communication skills improved. Language studies performance was then compared to their major subject grades to determine if it is significant to finding a job easily. Improvement in communication skills is correlated with improved grades in major subjects and it allowed graduates to find a job in their respective fields within one to six months after graduation.

Published: May 2022

The world is on the verge of recognizing the right of every learner to quality education and learning. It has been part of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (UN-SDG) to open the door of equity education for all children, especially in rural areas. Hence, this research discusses how pedagogical practices of multigrade teachers in teaching Science learning activities are facilitated. The qualitative research design was used in collecting data through document analysis and semi-structured interviews. Five teachers from two multigrade schools in Bataan and Quezon provinces were the key informants. Two major themes emerged in the study, namely: following protocol as prescribed by DepEd and challenges in the pedagogical practices of Science teachers. The challenge of complying with the requirements and protocol posted by DepEd, multigrade Science teachers need to adjust to every aspect of the education process. Thus, the perennial situation of multigrade schools made them lag in terms of pedagogical practices as compared to monograde given the limited budget allocated for multigrade schools. However, multigrade teachers are observed to be creative and resilient.Finding revealed that majority of the multigrade teachers need to provide learning materials out of their own pockets to make Science learning activities possible. This study recommended revisiting the policy on School Maintenance and Other Operating Expenses (MOOE) of multigrade schools. In addition, training to multigrade teachers should be conducted so that these teachers will be better equipped with the necessary tools in teaching multigrade Science learning activities.

Se realizó un estudio descriptivo transversal con el objetivo de identificar la variación de la ingesta dietética de energía y macro nutrí en tes y su efecto en el contenido de grasa en la leche materna, en madres del municipio de San Juan Chamelco, departamento de Alta Verapaz. Se estudiaron 61 madres que asistieron al Centro de Salud de este municipio, durante tres días consecutivos en el periodo de agosto a diciembre de 1999.
Para la recolección de la información dietética (energía y macronutríentes) se utilizó el recordatorio de 24 horas; y la estimación del contenido de grasa en la leche materna se hizo por el crematocrito. Los resultados obtenidos fueron analizados medíante estadísticas descriptivas y regresiones lineales.
Con relación al estado nutricional de las madres, se encontró un 3.5% con un Indice de Masa Corporal (ÍMC) con valores pordebajo de los normales. Del resto, el 47% presentó un estado nutricional normal y, el 49% con sobrepeso y obesidad.
Sin embargo, se encontró que la ingesta de energía y macronutríentes fue menor que las Recomendaciones Dietéticas Diarias del INCAP (7). Ninguna de las madres cubrió su requerimiento energético, el 93% no llenó el 75% de lo recomendado y solamente un 7% alcanzó a cubrir entre el 75 y 99% del requerimiento. El promedio de ingesta energética fue de 1442 ± 273 Kcal/día, de los cuales un 14% (52.4 ± 13.3 g) provenía de proteína, 70% (253,2 = 46.9 g) de carbohidratos y 16% (27.2 = 12.5 g) de grasa.
En cuanto al contenido de grasa en leche materna se encontraron valores comparables a los reportados en estudios anteriores (4), con un promedio de 7.7 = 3.3 por ciento. Además se observaron diferencias importantes en el contenido de grasa a nivel ínter-individual como intra-individual.
En este estudio, no se pudo demostrar que exista alguna correlación entre b ingesta de energía y macronutríentes del día anterior con el contenido de grasa de la leche materna. Sin embargo, estas mujeres son capaces de mantener con eficiencia el proceso de amamantamiento durante los primeros tres meses probablemente mediante mecanismos de adaptación metabóiica.

Construction of Gender in Two Chinese Translations of Little Women
Authors: Peng Xinyang
Published: May 2022

This paper aims to explore the influence of the translators’ sexual difference on their construction of gender identity in the two translations of Little Women written by Louisa May Alcott. The influence of the translators’ gender on the translations is a controversial topic. However, most of gender and translation studies have been done from a restricted feminist translation viewpoint. Based on Judith Butler’s gender performativity theory, this paper thus takes the two Chinese translations of Little Women as examples to explore the differences between the male and female translators and their gender constructions in the translations. This paper adopts a critical discourse analysis of the source text and the translations of the characterisation of the female characters and the gendered discourses in Little Women. Focus of this paper is on the translator’s paratextual elements as well. Since these approaches have rarely been applied in Chinese translation studies, this paper opens more discussion on the gender constructions of translators. It shows that the translators’ translation strategies reflect the association of gender with their own gender identity in the translations. However, further research is needed to expand the scope of the data size to include the analysis of multiple translations by different groups of translators of different genders, to explore the operational mechanisms of translation activities and the ways how translation render or even construct gender identities.

A Probe in the Language Features of Fruit Chan's Films from the Perspective of Audio-visual Characteristics: Taking the Trilogy on Hong Kong's Return to China as an Example
Authors: Liu Xinyu
Published: May 2022

After the territory of Hong Kong formally returned in 1997 to its rightful owner of China, Fruit Chan (Chen Guo), a director, rose to fame with his trilogy on HK's return (namely Little Cheung, Made in Hong Kong, and The Longest Summer). Since then, he has successively made many films reflecting humans' real living status. Most of Hong Kong-made films in the past were standardized and industrialized, such as comedies and action films which are familiar to us, while there were few realistic films that could indeed depict and present the social changes to the public. Therefore, films like Fruit Chan's, which demonstrates tragic and profound ideas, are extremely rare and valuable in Hong Kong's film industry. Although Chan has not produced many works, all of them are endowed with realistic hue, aesthetic characteristics, and profound humanistic thoughts, which makes his films monuments of Hong Kong's realistic ones. It is easy to find sense of mission and sentimental feelings in his films, enabling us to better see how Hong Kong films move forward in the direction of visual transmission after Hong Kong’s return to China from multiplex angles of view.

This paper pointed out some major issues in the theoretical implication and empirical application of the applicative theory. Extra supporting data were raised from Mandarin DOCs. Furthermore, instead of assuming an additional rule of permitting one verb taking two objects, this argued that Mandarin indirect passives transformed from DOCs and resultatives were both derived from the Bi-verbal underlying structure, but with different argument arrangements.

Authors: Duan Yanhua , Meng Xianghe
Published: May 2022

This paper mainly introduces and summarizes the current status of electropalatograph research. The research on speech pronunciation based on the electropalatograph mainly uses the pronunciation physiology equipment—electropalatograph instrument to obtain the point-like image recording data when the tongue touches the upper palate during the process of speech pronunciation, and then carries out data analysis and modeling research. The electropalatograph mainly records the contact state of the tongue and palate, which can record and describe the process of speech pronunciation more accurately, objectively and scientifically. It can enrich the relevant theories of experimental phonetics and improve the traditional interpretation of speech pronunciation. Pronunciation mechanism provides reference data.

Meteorological disasters impose significant challenges on protection of ancient buildings. By use of Delphi method and Multi-subject research including architecture, meteorology and archaeology, this work identifies major meteorological disasters on ancient buildings. The hierarchical model of risk influential factors is established. It contains four first-grade factors such as wind, flood, lightning and snow disaster, ten second-grade factors and twenty third-grade factors. Then, Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) was utilized to calculate weight of those factors. The result showed that lightning disasters had largest threat on ancient buildings among the four major kinds of meteorological disasters. Its weight was the highest of 0.383, followed by that of flood and wind disasters with weight of 0.31 and 0.22 respectively. Snow disasters had the smallest weight of 0.09. Lightning protection measures have significant influence on vulnerability of ancient buildings and on lightning disaster risks. So, to protect ancient buildings against meteorological disasters, besides characteristics of the disasters themselves, all the mentioned factors such as architectural structure, building types and environment should be taken into consideration. Specific protection strategies are then implemented according to weights of different factors.
