It has grown into a platform with a broad range of content, including sports, fashion, performing arts, and education, encouraging learners to join the community. This descriptive-correlational aimed to determine the relationship between TikTok Utilization and the Level of Engagement of BPeA students of the City College of Angeles. After gathering data from 103 respondents through an online survey, the findings revealed that the BPeA students undergoing online classes use the TikTok application moderately and responsibly. Also, the level of students’ engagement during online classes was found to be very high. Furthermore, a significant positive relationship was observed between TikTok utilization and students’ engagement. Based on the findings, the researchers recommend that the Institute of Education, Arts, and Sciences (IEAS), in partnership with the College Guidance Office (CGO), collaborate on providing webinars or training on how SNS such as TikTok can be a helpful tool or distraction at the level of engagement of the students. Additionally, instructors/professors may also use the TikTok application as an educational tool to provide a better and more engaging classroom environment. Moreover, conducting the same study with the addition of other degree programs offered by the college to determine if the results may support or refute the findings is highly recommended. Lastly, other variables may be added to this present study to understand further the relationship between TikTok consumption and students’ engagement.","PeriodicalId":393771,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Interdisciplinary Research and Innovation","volume":"os-54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127719413","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study was conducted to determine the school heads’ as instructional leaders in support of teachers’ holistic development in public elementary schools in the division of Nueva Ecija. A total of 316 teachers served as respondents in the study. The investigation utilized the descriptive correlational research methods and Slovin’s formula with stratified random sampling. The data was collected through a questionnaire that included the teachers’ demographic profile, school heads’ domains of instructional leadership, school heads’ leadership performance, and teachers’ holistic development—the researcher utilized Pearson Product Moment Correlation and Spearman’s rho as statistical treatment. The school head communicates with teachers and staff to ensure that everyone strives toward the same objective, assigns responsibility for curriculum organization across grade levels, and meets with instructors one-on-one to evaluate students’ school performance. Furthermore, the school principal ensures that public announcements do not interfere with teaching time, recognizes excellent performance through faculty meetings, keeps instructors informed about professional development, and recognizes students who thrive academically. The respondents strongly agree that their school head gives instructions and clarifies processes, facilitates communication, and permits teachers to evaluate their work. Regarding school heads’ domains of instructional leadership and school heads’ leadership styles, performance was positively correlated, the same with the result obtained between school heads’ domains of instructional leadership and teachers’ holistic development. Furthermore, a positive correlation was also found between school heads’ leadership styles performance and teachers’ holistic development.

This study aimed to find out the level of involvement of parents, school, and community in the academic performance of senior high school students- General Academic Strand (Grade 11 and 12). This determined if there is a significant relationship between the involvement of parents, school, and community and the students’ academic performance. This leads to the development of an involvement plan to increase involvement among parents, schools, and the community. The study used a quantitative research design employing a descriptive type of research using constructed checklist-type of questionnaire as the main instrument. Multiple-item tests in line with the most essential competencies were used to measure the academic performance of the students. Respondents were chosen purposively including 56 Grade 11-GAS and 17 Grade 12-GAS students of Jomalig National High School. Gathered data were subjected to weighted arithmetic mean and person-r correlation. The level of involvement of school, parent, and community involvement in the academic performance of the student's GAS (Grade 11 and 12) revealed a computed average mean of 2.81, 2.65, and 2.66 which falls under the interpretation of often. The data revealed a computed r-value for school, parents, and community involvement in the academic performance of students of 0.15, 0.25, and 0.24 respectively, with a p-value of 0.00 at a 0.05 level of significance showing that there is a significant relationship among the three involved in the academic performance of the respondents.

The study used a Qualitative Descriptive research design, with in-depth interviews conducted with ten (10) teacher-participants to generate qualitative data. Given the challenges and consequences of the digital divide on emergent readers, most pupils lag in their reading skill development. Teachers find it is hard to establish communication during distance learning without digital learning tools and an internet connection. Young pupils were unable to enhance their skills through distance learning without the involvement of parents and the usage of technology. The study's findings revealed four (4) themes: (1) exploring the background of the emergent readers, (2) calculating the learning process, (3) facing challenges and impacts, and (4) directing the digital divide as they form the central idea on how digital divide affects the lives of the emergent readers in the last mile schools amidst the pandemic.
