Web-enhanced learning activities in selected topics in science 1
(Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University - South La Union Campus, 2011-03) Asignacion, Roy C.
The vision and goals of Philippine education is aligned with the four pillars: it is for students to learn science, learn to do science, and learn through science (Interaction Journal, 2001). Thus, the study focused on the use of Web-Enhanced Learning Activities to improve the academic performance and achievement of students. Specifically, it tested for the significant differences in the academic performance and achievement of the four groups. The respondents were the first year high school students of SLU-LHS, Baguio City who randomly selected, grouped following the Solomon Four Group format and matched according to the result of their Science Achievement Test.
Frequency count, percentage, means, one-way ANOVA, Tukey’s test, and Correlation of Determination were employed to treat the data.
The results showed that the two experimental groups performed better than their control group counterpart in terms of their academic performance and achievement. Therefore, using Web-Enhanced Learning Activities are effective strategies in the teaching and learning of topics in Science 1.
Stress level and coping mechanisms of working women of san fernando city, la union: basis for a wellness sustainability program
(Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University - South La Union Campus, 2011-03) Sambrano, Prixies R.
The study endeavored to study the stress level and coping mechanisms of working women of Barangays Poro and Ilocanos Sur, City of San Fernando, La Union. It identified and analyzed the profile of the respondents; stress level related factors (physical, psychological, behavioral); coping mechanisms (physical, psychological, emotional, social, spiritual aspects). A wellness program was developed based on the survey result.
This descriptive study collected data through the administration of questionnaires to 83 and 113 married working women from Barangay Ilocanos Sur and Barangay Poro respectively. Occupation of the working women — majority of the working women are laborers (98), Occupation of the husband — 65 of them are laborers, Number of children — there are 112 working women who have children 1-3, Educational attainment — there are 87 who are undergraduate (college), Monthly income — most of the working women are earning Php 9,000 and below (120), The stress level of the working women (physical, psychological, behavioral) are all average. The degree of utilization of coping mechanism (physical, psychological, emotional, social, and spiritual) of the working women is all moderately utilized. No Significant differences were noted between the occupation of the working women and their physical, psychological, social, emotional and spiritual coping mechanisms. Significant differences were noted between the occupation of husband of the working women and their physical coping mechanism. No significant difference between the occupation of the husband and their psychological, social, emotional and spiritual coping mechanism. No significant difference exists between the working women classified according to the number of children in terms of physical, psychological, social, emotional and spiritual coping mechanisms. Significant differences were noted between the working women grouped according to educational attainment and all of the coping mechanisms .Significant differences were noted between the working women grouped according to their monthly income and all of the coping mechanisms.

Improvement of Silkworm (Mombyx mori l.) hybrids for cocoon and egg production using honey-enriched Mulberry (morus alba l.) leaves
(Pakistan Agricultural Scientists Forum, 2022-08) Almojuela, C. M.; Arellano G. E.; Barrameda E. M.; Supsup R. D.
The study aimed to determine the performance of six (6) parental F1 silkworm hybrids fed with mulberry leaves enriched with honey concentrations. Evaluation of the different silkworm hybrids was based on cocoon and egg production parameters. Treatments were arranged in Split Plot in Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD). Data were analyzed using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and comparison of treatment means were determined using Tukey’s Honest Significant Difference (HSD) Test. Interaction of honey concentration and silkworm hybrids was tested using Fisher’s protected Least Significant Difference (LSD). Mulberry leaves enriched with 30% honey concentration gave higher cocoon yield box-1 when fed to silkworm hybrids DMMMSU 201, DMMMSU 208, DMMMSU 210 and DMMMSU 215; and 45% honey concentration was best for DMMMSU 201. Hybrid DMMMSU 210 gave higher single cocoon shell weight and cocoon shell percentage with a 15% honey-enriched diet. Hybrids DMMMSU 210 gave higher hatching percentage with 15% and 30% honey enrichment while DMMMSU 201, 202 and 208 responded positively with all the treatment concentrations. The effect of honey-enriched mulberry on cocoon and egg parameters could be attributed to honey concentrations.
Psychological and academic well-being of students in lyceum-northwestern university: basis for a wellness program
(Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University - South La Union Campus, 2011-03) Hidalgo, Jo Ann V.
Addressing student well-being is emerging as an important approach to the development of student's social, emotional, psychological and academic competence. The degree to which a student demonstrates effective academic, social, and emotional functioning in their school community is an indicator of his or her level of well-being.
The focus of this study is to determine the psychological and academic well-being of the students. This descriptive-correlational study collected data through the administration of questionnaire and standardized test to 211 students from the College of Tourism, Engineering, and Criminology. T-test and ANOVA were used to test differences and Pearson Product-Moment Correlation was used to test
relationships.
The findings of the study showed that students have low level of psychological well-being. The study found significant differences in EPI dimensions and gender. There is also significant differences of the respondents in terms of their courses along the dyscontrol dimension; IQ level and gregariousness; income bracket and trust, dyscontrol, and gregariousness respectively. The academic well-being of students in terms of GPA is average. There were significant differences noted among the students GPA along profile variables. The GPA is significantly related with some EPI dimension such as trust, distrust, control, aggression, and gregariousness. There was no relationship noted between GPA and emotional quotient; GPA and psychological needs.
Based on the findings, there is a need to extend counseling, and conduct of seminars and enrichment activities to help students deal with their identified needs and concerns, thus, the development of wellness program is an important approach to enhance the well-being of students.

(Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University - South La Union Campus, 2025-05) Foronda, Maria Cecilia V.
This paper analyzed the attributes of guidance counselors in terms of their skills, strategies, attitudes, work profile, and emotional profile. The respondents were 59 guidance facilitators of secondary public schools in the 2TM District of the Division of La Union. Descriptive-correlation research design was employed in the analysis of the respondents’ attributes. Fisher’s exact test and Somer’s d was used in the data analysis.
Findings revealed that guidance facilitator had acquired the skills, strategies, attitude and emotional profile that needed in their designation. However, they lacked in implementing some strategies that needed as they deliver their services into their designation as facilitators are recommended to pursue a degree in guidance and counseling and pass the licensure exam on Guidance Counselor. An enhancement training program was proposed based on the result of the study.
