<p>The Philippine government is currently investing on education reform through the Enhanced<br />Basic Education Program or the K-12 Curriculum. The recent basic education program does<br />not only call for academic excellence but also on higher teacher qualification. The purpose of<br />this study is to determine whether or not teacher licensure matters in the implementation of<br />the basic education reform in the Philippine Education system. Qualitative in orientation, this<br />study utilized Phenomenology as its research design to capture the lebenswelt of college<br />teachers who are distraught by the implementation of the new K-12 curriculum. Data were<br />gathered through interviews and the analysis of data was empirically observed using the<br />following steps: transcribing, coding, theming, verifying, and analyzing. The analysis of data<br />in this phenomenological inquiry yielded three essential themes based on the respondents’<br />major statements pertaining to eligibility that makes the college teacher qualified to teach in<br />the Senior High School of the new K-12 program, namely: full eligibility, provisionary<br />eligibility, and temporary eligibility. The college teachers in this study accept and favor the<br />Department of Education’s teaching licensure requirement. They believe that passing the<br />Licensure Examination for Teachers (LET) is an important requirement before entering the<br />classroom. The shared experiences of the participants of the study serve as a primordial<br />source to raise awareness about the value and importance of teacher licensure to meet the<br />high quality standards set by the profession and the hiring standard recognized by the<br />government and public schools as an assurance of competence and quality.</p>

The enhanced K-12 Basic Education Program seeks to provide a quality 12-year basic education program that each Filipino is entitled and in consistent with Article XIV, Section 2 (I) of the Philippine Constitution which states that the state shall establish, maintain, and support a complete adequate, and integrated system of education relevant to the needs of the people and society.The study aimed to determine the level of performance of the Grade 8 Adtech students of the Philippine Science High School Ilocos Region Campus, San Ildefonso, Ilocos Sur in S.Y. 2013-2014. The study made use of descriptive correlational research design. Results showed that the overall grade exhibited a “very good” level of performance in the curricular subjects. Knowledge test of the student obtained an “Excellent” grade, and students’ work attitude is highly important. The student performance along knowledge (0.284), skills (0.301); attitude (0.272) in the Exploratory AdTech Program resulted that no significant relationship. The correlation coefficients between the level of performance of the students in Exploratory AdTech Program and the students’ performance along attitudes, manifested a significant relationship. Matching of competency requirements and standards of the 12-year basic education are necessary to acquire skills and match the College Readiness Standards for further education and future employment of students. Keywords – Education, performance, Grade 8, Adtech, descriptive correlational method, Ilocos Sur, Philippines

Online learning continues to be an increasingly popular option in K–12 and postsecondary settings As this trend continues, it is important that the developers of online instructional environments and materials proactively consider the needs of all students. This includes determining how special education and specially designed instruction can be provided in online environments. For students with learning disabilities (LD), a systematic process for determining whether available learning materials address academic standards and specific student needs is key. To support practitioner lesson planning, this column provides guidance for aligning asynchronous learning materials to academic standards and the needs of students with LD. Guidance for supplementing and augmenting available materials is also provided.

Purpose – There is a growing need for school-based nutritional educational programs that promote healthy eating attitudes without increasing an unhealthy focus on restrictive eating or promoting a poor body image. Research suggests that intuitive eating (IE) approaches, which encourage individuals to focus on internal body signals as a guide for eating, have had a positive impact on eating-related psychological outcomes in adults. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effects an IE education program on the eating attitudes of high school students. Design/methodology/approach – In a quasi-experimental study, 48 high school students (30 females) in a Midwest town in the USA received instruction on IE or a comparison program over seven days during health classes. Repeated measures analyses of covariance were conducted to examine changes in eating attitudes in sexes across conditions. Findings – Students who received the IE program made significantly greater gains in overall positive eating attitudes on the Intuitive Eating Scale than students in the comparison program (p=0.045), as well as on the Unconditional Permission to Eat subscale (p=0.02). There were no significant effects of sex on any of the analyses. Research limitations/implications – Because of the relatively small sample size and short duration of the program, the results should be generalized with caution. Practical implications – The results suggest that IE instruction may encourage the development of healthy eating attitudes in high school students, and health teachers may wish to consider including IE instruction in the health curriculum. Originality/value – This is the first study to examine the effectiveness of an IE program in a K-12 population, with instruction provided in the context of the school. The results are promising and suggest that this may be a fruitful area for future research in nutrition education.
