Abc-based behavior intervention plan for learners with special needs in the inclusive classroom
(Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University - South La Union Campus, 2024-05) Del Castillo, Alayla Louise A.
The inclusion of learners with special needs in an inclusive classroom poses a challenge to the teacher’s classroom behavior management. These learners tend to present challenging behaviors during the teaching-learning process that disrupt the flow of the classroom system. This paper studied the challenging behaviors of learners with special needs in the inclusive classroom by recording and observing the behaviors through the ABC recording sheets and the classroom behavior management strategies employed by the teachers of the learners with special needs. A descriptive-quantitative research design was used in the analysis of data.
The challenging behaviors displayed by the learner with ADHD were talking to seatmate, tapping pencil on her desk, and standing in the middle of the class. The challenging behaviors presented by the learner with emotional and behavioral difficulties were not paying attention, forgetting and not completing tasks, and not participating in classroom activities. The challenging behaviors manifested by the learner with ASD were throwing tantrums, defying teacher's instructions, and hugging someone tightly. ABC-Based Behavior Intervention Plans are proposed to modify and improve the challenging behaviors of learners with special needs in the inclusive classroom.
Mediamorphosis: an evaluation of social media-based lhs forum publication
(Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University - South La Union Campus, 2022-06) Mercado, Zander Christopher M.
Social media platforms have become essential news outlets for the general public as well as useful tools for journalists. For this reason, this study was conducted to evaluate the level of effectiveness, usability, acceptability, and level of reach and engagement of the social media-based high school publication.
This study utilized descriptive research design and is carried out in the Laboratory High School (LHS) of the Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University South La Union Campus with the students, faculty and staff as respondents.
Utilizing adopted questionnaires and employing frequency counts, percentage, and median, this study found that the social media-based campus publication is largely simple to use, effective, acceptable, and is widely read and followed online.
It also found that the LHS Forum readers usually access the internet at home with Facebook as the generally accessed social media platform. Further, the responses yielded three underlying themes when using the social media-based publication: reason, relation, and reaction.
Challenges and coping strategies of the probationers and parolees during their re-entry in the society
(Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University - South La Union Campus, 2025-05) Bautista, Juliet C.
This study aims to determine probationers' and parolees’ challenges and coping strategies during their re-entry in the society at Urdaneta City Parole and Probation Office. Using a descriptive correlational research design, data were gathered from 303 probationers and parolees selected through cluster sampling and simple random technique. Crafted survey questionnaires were utilized to collect data on respondents’ profiles, challenges encountered, and coping strategies used. Data analysis involved frequency counts, average weighted median, and Correlation Analysis using SPSS 21.
Results indicate that most respondents exhibit frequently experienced challenges and rarely used coping strategies. Cramer’s V analysis indicates that civil status (specifically to physical challenges), the highest level of education (specifically to intrapersonal and physical challenges), and average monthly income (specifically to spiritual challenges) are significantly correlated at (p < 0.05). These findings contribute 10 a deeper understanding of the factors associated with the challenges probationers and parolees encounter during their re-entry into society and emphasize the importance of incorporating them into developing effective reintegration programs.
The effectiveness of using damath in teaching intermediate algebra
(Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University - South La Union Campus, 2013-03) Bacalzo, Anthony R.
Using pretest-posttest experimental research method, this study determined the effectiveness of DAMATH, in teaching Intermediate Algebra. Specifically, it sought answers to the following: the profile of the respondents along learning styles and third grading grade in Intermediate algebra; the performance of the experimental group exposed to DAMATH and the control group exposed to the conventional teaching method; the significant difference between their pretest and posttest scores, posttest scores, mean gain scores and formative test scores; and the significant relationship between the respondents’ profile and their performance in Intermediate Algebra.
It employed the pretest-posttest controlled group research method using 28 matched pairs of respondents.
Findings of this study showed that: (1) The two groups of respondents have varied learning styles. The control group was visual learners while the experimental group was auditory learners. There were more high performers in Intermediate Algebra in both groups during the third grading period. (2) The experimental group exposed to DAMATH, had higher performance level, than the control group. (3) There were significant differences between the performances of the experimental group and the control group found in the pretest-posttest scores, formative tests, and in the mean gain scores of the two groups. This led to the rejection of the null hypotheses. (4) Significant relationship exists between the third grading grade and performance in Intermediate Algebra of both groups of respondents while no profile was not associated with their performance.
Based on the findings, this study concluded that the use of DAMATH in teaching Intermediate Algebra is effective.
Multiple intelligence and learning styles of high school students: basis for activity package
(Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University - South La Union Campus, 2013-03) De Guzman, Jo-Ann R.
The study aimed at determining the Multiple Intelligences, Learning Styles and Performance of the High School Students as basis for activity package in PE III.
The study is descriptive with questionnaires as the primary data instruments. The respondents were 160 randomly -selected 3rd year students of Christ the King College, City of San. Fernando, La Union for the School Year 2012-2013.
The study revealed that majority of the students were males, aged 13-15 years old and whose monthly family. income was. P25,001 and above. Majority of their parents were college graduates and were working. Their top three intelligences were interpersonal, kinesthetic and acting. The least manifested intelligence is naturalistic intelligence. Their top- two learning styles were kinesthetic/tactile and visual. The least manifested learning style is auditory. Their cognitive performance is satisfactory; their psychomotor performance is fair. They are much aware of their affective performance. There is no significant correlation between psychomotor performance and kinesthetic intelligence and cognitive performance to learning styles.
