| 1 | Effects of Flipped Classroom in the Reduction of Learners’ Errors in Differential Calculus by Maria Dindy D.S. Reyes | The focus of the study is to
investigate the effects of the flipped classroom in the
learners’ errors in Differential Calculus tasks. Two groups of students in the Technological Institute of the Philippines in Quezon City, Philippines were under investigation. The control group went through the traditional classroom method while the experimental group went through the flipped classroom strategy. Comparability of the two groups was ensured at the start of the semester through a test involving general mathematics topics. The students in each of the two groups were further divided into two—STEM and non-STEM which performed the same set of activities in their respective groups. In the experimental group, lectures took place outside of the classroom with the aid of pre-recorded videos. The videos were personally created by the author. The average running time of the videos is 20 minutes. In cases that the topic needed more than the allotted time, the lecture was divided into segments. Classroom hours were used for more effective and creative activities and the teacher focused more on observing, guiding, and helping the students. More... |

| 2 | MIMAROPA Region SUC’s Faculty Associations: A Base Line Study by Joefel T. Libo-on PhD., Joemar F. Manzo DPA & Orfelina I. Manzo EdD. | This study was conducted to
determine the status of faculty associations in state
universities and colleges in the MIMAROPA Region,
Philippines. It determined the profile description of Faculty
Association, the status of faculty members, participants'
assessments on the practices of faculty association in the
protection of employees' rights, the advancement of
employees' economic welfare, improvement of work terms and
conditions among State University and Colleges (SUCs) in the
MIMAROPA Region. This paper utilized mixed quantitative –
qualitative research methodology which involves 344
participants from the six SUCs in the region. The current study found the faculty associations were accredited, registered, and affiliated with the nonteaching employee association, only 50% among them have a registered CNA resulting in non-provision of cash incentives. 21 units are the regular teaching load but there were faculty members with 24 or more teaching loads. Faculty associations in the region were very satisfactory in the protection of employees' rights, the advancement of employees' economic welfare in terms of compensation, and leave benefits. Unfortunately, satisfactory in terms of bonuses and loans, workplace, workloads, and personal and professional development. |

| 3 | Development and Evaluation of Game-Based Learning System for Differential Calculus by Jane Marie M. Ilustre & Avelina R. Raqueño | One important task of every
teacher is to help improve his/her student’s ability of
thinking and reasoning. The ability to think and reason out
vigorously is one of the substantial learning that the
student can achieve. Now, everybody is in the process of
changing because of the advances in technology and as the
technology continues to grow, the application of Mathematics
to Science becomes superior. To reach the utmost potential of
our students’ mathematical skills, there are a lot of
numerous ways we can do as teachers to achieve this and one
of the methods or strategies that can be instigated is
through game-based learning. As an educator, we always seek
to determine first if the students are ready to learn the new
topics that we are about to discuss and this is based on what
they already know. Difficulty in coping with the topics is
then experienced by the students if they lack the needed
mathematical skills for a particular lesson. In this study, the researcher developed a game-based diagnostic test and learning intervention for freshman engineering students for the course in Differential Calculus. The learning intervention was developed as a tool for mastery of topics for the course. The goal of the game-based learning system is for the students to bridge the gap of mastery in their Pre-Calculus most especially for the non-STEM students who were not able to take Pre-Calculus in their senior high school strand. The researcher also investigated if the game-based learning system eventually strengthened students’ mathematical skills required in improving the performances in the course Differential Calculus.More.... |

| 4 | Purposive Communication: CHED Standards, Teachers' Syllabi, and Curricular Enhancement by Joefel T. Libo-on, Ph.D. & Erwyn O. Valencia, Ed.D. | The exponential growth of text in different media is inevitable in this technological era. Text can be found in different sources from newspapers, magazines, textbooks, electronic sources, and even in social media. In the perimeter of the educational institution, still, the most common source of text in the state colleges and universities in the Philippines was textbooks. Professors utilize textbooks to supplement the need for instruction to carry out their respective modified syllabus which is in consonance to the prescribed course content by the Commission of Higher Education (CHED)-responsible for the higher education institution in the Philippines. The study examined the sufficiency of the textbooks and teachers' syllabi in Purposive Communication about CHED's standards. Specifically, it sought to determine the congruency of the following standards through analysis of the textbooks' sufficiency, assessment of teachers' syllabi, and proposal of appropriate course framework and prototype syllabus as an output. The study utilized the qualitative research method using content analysis of the three textbooks which sought answers to the given sub-problems. Results revealed that the three textbooks when analyzed as to curricular sufficiency with the prescribed CHED's standards in terms of "knowledge" were dominantly rated 'explicitly stated' out of the five characteristics, in terms of "skills" were dominantly rated 'manifested' out of four characteristics and in terms of values, were 'learned', 'practiced' and 'opportunity to learn' out of the four characteristics respectively. The course appropriately adhered to language communication principles and ideas in multiple contexts.More... | 04-Feb-2020 | 24-Apr-2020/ 30-Apr-2020 |

| 5 | Purpose of Critical Pattern of 60 Meter Ship Form Project Using Precedence Diagram Method (PDM) by Fadlan Ewi Gunanta & Kevin | PT. XYZ in Surabaya is engaged in the production of commercial ships, providing ship repair and maintenance services as well as general engineering with specifications based on orders. Along with the development of the technology industry, ship production requires every shipyard to evaluate the system used. The time delay is the problem of building a 60 meter commercial ship. The Precedence Diagram Method (PDM) is a method for scheduling project time and showing critical trajectories of project activities. The results showed that in the project scheduling, there are 13 activities that have a zero value or critical activity which are activities 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 15, 16, 20, 22, 23, 26, 27, 28 So that it needs more strict control and supervision from the contractor in carrying out the activities of the 60 meter commercial ship building project activities for each activity/activity so that it does not experience delays and the project can be completed on time. | 23-Feb-2020 | 26-Apr-2020/ 30-Apr-2020 |
