{"title":"Demonization and sanctification of indigenous feminine roles in the 16th century Philippines","authors":"James Loreto Piscos","doi":"10.58870/berj.v8i1.47","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.58870/berj.v8i1.47","url":null,"abstract":"The indigenous feminine roles were hidden from the trappings of the early Spanish chroniclers in the 16th century since their worldviews and background prompted them to write in favor of the Spanish aims of colonization and evangelization. In the process, they despised the importance of women’s status which the author described as demonization. To bring back indigenous women’s honor and dignity, the method of reconstruction is employed to retrieve their narratives that showcase their value be it in the rituals of the maganito, leadership and social functions in the community, and their place in the family and clan. It is in this practice of restoration that the author come up with his notion of sanctification which is considered holy when their integrity is respected and acknowledged. The study employs demythologization technique which emanates from the dialectical enlightenment designed by the critical theory pioneered by Adorno and Horkheimer. The research is limited to the indigenous feminine roles in the 16th-century Philippines. This is qualitative research that analyzes primary sources be it written, visual or artifact materials. The findings of the study shall enrich United Nation Sustainable Development Goal 5 that tackles gender equality and empowerment since any attempts to promote holistic growth should anchor to the respect of human dignity and take into account various dimensions including the stories of the marginalized.","PeriodicalId":472571,"journal":{"name":"Bedan Research Journal","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135803063","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}

{"title":"gift of faith: Tracing the 500 years of Christianity in the Philippines through the transformative experiences of the BEC lay leaders.","authors":"Julius Tutor, Cherlon Gambong","doi":"10.58870/berj.v8i1.53","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.58870/berj.v8i1.53","url":null,"abstract":"The Philippine Church commemorates in a year-long (April 2021 – April 2022) celebration the 500 years of Christianity in the country. The Filipino Catholics and communities gathered to joyfully celebrate the event which marks the first hearing of the good news about Christ some hundred years ago by the foreign Catholic missionaries. Alongside the colonization of the Spaniards, which comes with complex issues and controversies, one remains significant and meaningful on the other side of their arrival- the Christian Faith! Today, this same mission of evangelization of the first Catholic missionaries in the country had been continued specifically in the local activities of the Church through the Basic Ecclesial Communities or the BEC movements all over the country. This is a case of qualitative study exploring the concept of faith of the lay leaders of Basic Ecclesial Community (BEC) in Francisco de Borja Chapel, in Barangay Sta. Fe Caraga Davao Oriental. The study was conducted through an in-depth interview and dissemination of research questionnaire to the selected BEC lay leaders who were able to respond actively. In the end, the result of our thematic analysis, which was used to utilize in discovering the different emerging and significant themes of the gathered data, narrates for us the core meaning of the gift of faith for the BEC lay leaders: (1) faith that centers on Christ, (2) it is a gift of the Holy Spirit, (3) faith makes a person open to salvation, (4) faith as a gift means a blessing from God, and (5) faith makes them victorious over the trials of life. Moreover, the transforming effect of faith in the utterance of the BEC lay leaders reflects in the consciousness of the researchers the vision and objectives of the Second Plenary Council of the Philippines (1991): (1) participation, (2) responsive, (3) service, and (4) becoming truly Christian. These core themes of the transforming effect of faith on the BEC lay leaders reflect the reason for the Philippines to continue cultivating and nourishing the Christian mission in realizing the Kingdom of God here on earth.","PeriodicalId":472571,"journal":{"name":"Bedan Research Journal","volume":"76 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135803072","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}

The New Testament Pinoy Version Catholic Edition was considered as an alternative document which has a new or different stylistics that defined the biblical contexts i.e., the teachings and words of Jesus Christ. As mentioned, this is different from what has been the standard biblical version. However, this style of translating has been coincided within two languages i.e., Filipino and English. Code-switching is no longer new as a discourse. It was being used either in technical or creative writing or even in some specific pedagogical approaches. Code-switching in this regard may be considered as form or methodology or technique of translation. But what makes code-switching as a stylistic translation different is that it was used as a tool to translate a very significant document or canon that is considered as the greatest and most notable book of all times. Thus it became a linguistic instrument. This may now be considered that the usage of code-switching is already applicable in almost all discourses including a religious text like the bible.","PeriodicalId":472571,"journal":{"name":"Bedan Research Journal","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135803073","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}

The participants voluntarily completed the survey questionnaire measuring learning environment and mental health adapted from Universiti Malaysia Kelantan. Research results revealed that the more university students negatively viewed online learning environment specifically in terms of assignment, lecturer/friend, facilities & equipment, home & environment, physical classes the more they have bad mental health. Moreover, findings showed that online learning environments such as home & environment were found to be the strongest predictor of mental health among university students.

Such practice was intensified with the kickoff of the pandemic in 2020 when most, if not all, educational institution around the world were forced to come up with a more innovative technique in teaching to continue learning. Schools and universities, be it private or public, opted to shift to online education. This study seeks to the variations in the technological gadgets and e-learning tools in the teaching of physical education classes through identification, chi-square testing, and Focus Group Discussion using the Replacement and Amplification of (RAT) Framework. Specifically, it examines the availability of these resources in different types of universities and investigates their effectiveness in promoting student engagement and improving pedagogical practices while exploring the differences between digital gadgets and e-learning tools and their availability in universities, with a specific focus on the effectiveness of teaching of physical education classes. The findings indicate that the types of digital gadgets (X2, 57.793, df=8), p <.000 <.05) and e-learning tools (X2, 63.36, df=19, p <.001 <.05) used by the students vary depending on the type of university- whether private or public, due to the accessibility for the students, and the popularity of the tools and apps. Furthermore, the use of e-learning tools is beneficial in enhancing pedagogical practices in physical education classes and promoting student engagement in learning tasks because of their benefits. Additionally, the study recommends further research on the use of these tools in the new educational landscape.","PeriodicalId":472571,"journal":{"name":"Bedan Research Journal","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135803065","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}

Through phenomenography, a qualitative research approach that could represent variations of individuals’ experience of a common phenomenon while at the same time, capturing the essence of the need to improve or reform the response towards the phenomenon, opportunities for pedagogical leadership were undermined. Ambiguity in terms of the extent of student participation and engagement, disparity in online and on-site student test scores, weak self-directedness, and time management were identified to be learning gaps. On the other hand, the complexity of doing both online and on-site tasks, lack of digital training, alongside available technical support was culled to be teaching gaps. Outcome spaces drawn from these findings were: conceptual clarity, academic integrity, digital equity, and digital inclusion. From these aforesaid outcome spaces, the following pedagogical leadership opportunities are mapped: 1) the Creation of a standard hybrid syllabus template alongside policies concerning academic integrity, and 2) the Application of the Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) cycle as a baseline method for constantly identifying the weak digital skills of teachers and consequently, mapping retooling and upskilling activities for them, thereby promoting digital equity and inclusion.","PeriodicalId":472571,"journal":{"name":"Bedan Research Journal","volume":"75 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135802159","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}

{"title":"Construct validation of the teacher attitude to inclusion scale for Filipino pre-service teachers","authors":"Alvin Nieva","doi":"10.58870/berj.v8i1.56","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.58870/berj.v8i1.56","url":null,"abstract":"Inclusive education is one of the visions of the global agenda of “education for all.” It aligns with Sustainable Development Goal 4: “Ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote life-long learning opportunities for all” (Harrington, 2016, p.30). The teacher’s attitude is one of the identified factors in the effective implementation of inclusive education. Hence, schools in the Philippines would require tools that measure the teachers’ attitudes toward inclusive education as they plan to accommodate inclusive education in their classrooms as mandated by Republic Act No. 11650: “Instituting a Policy of Inclusion and Services for Learners with Disabilities in Support of Inclusive Education Act.” This study examined the theoretical model of the Teacher Attitude to Inclusion Scale (Monsen, Ewing, &amp; Boyle, 2015), specifically section 4 of the scale: “Attitudes toward Inclusion,” through a cross-sectional, explanatory nonexperimental design utilizing both between-network and between-network construct validation approaches. The participants were 417 pre-service teachers from private and state-owned universities in Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, selected through convenience sampling. They completed two sets of measures online, the fourth section of the Teacher Attitude to Inclusion and the Teachers’ Sense of Efficacy Scale (Tschannen-Moran &amp; Hoy, 2001). The results of within-network and between-network construct validation suggest the acceptability of the reduced 10-item of section 4 of the Teacher Attitude to Inclusion Scale among Filipino pre-service teachers. Based on confirmatory factor analysis, the data fit the three-factor structure (i.e., factors 1, 2, and 4) rather than the original four-factor structure suggesting within-network construct validity. Furthermore, the relationships between the TAIS and the TSES subscales were positively correlated, indicating the TAIS's between-network construct validity. Since this scale is psychometrically sound for Filipino pre-service teachers, it is recommended to consider extending this study by examining the applicability of this scale to in-service teachers.","PeriodicalId":472571,"journal":{"name":"Bedan Research Journal","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135803074","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}

These loans had been extended on terms substantially more generous than market loans, concessional either through interest rates below those available on the market or by grace periods, or a combination of these. Hence, with the bloated ability of the country until the present time of his son, Ferdinand Marcos Jr., and those long-term debts, debt service has become a fundamental peg in managing the debt hole of the economy. The researchers seek to determine and investigate the influence of debt service on the Philippine economy considering this important economic variable through real exchange rates, inflation, gross domestic product, and foreign investments. In addition, the researchers will use Granger causality analysis as it detects the direct exchange of information between debt service and GDP while testing the relationship of the other economic variables such as real exchange rates, inflation, and foreign investments to the debt service of the government. Moreover, the result of the analysis shows greater implications of all the selected economic variables to the debt service in the economy; but, of all the given selected economic variables, gross domestic product shows potency in impacting the debt service to the economy. Being able to see this relationship would help policymakers become more aware of implications when the debt to GDP ratio crosses the ideal threshold when there is no strong economic backup plan. The null hypothesis indicates that total debt payment or total debt service does not granger cause the nominal gross domestic product. The researchers also identified optimal lags and thresholds for debt ceilings which contribute to the analysis. The use of nominal gross domestic product (GDP) instead of real GDP was also highlighted in the paper.","PeriodicalId":472571,"journal":{"name":"Bedan Research Journal","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135802162","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}

It was guided by an “ex-post” impact assessment framework conceptualized by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) and anchored on the theory of change provided by UNDG-UNDAF (United Nations Development Group – United Nations Development Assistance Framework). The research aims to: (1) analyze past studies on SBU community engagement programs via documentary analysis; (2) conduct an impact assessment survey and analysis among SBMVGA beneficiaries and analyze using Excel Data Analysis and Jamovi; and (3) generate recommendations for the CEC-SBU to further strengthen community engagements and partnerships moving forward. Upon completion, the key findings include the following: (1) the beneficiaries are willing and able to implement the SBU-CEC initiated programs on their own; and (2) spiritual dimensions had the highest and strongly significant value in terms of impact while economic dimensions had the lowest yet still significant value in terms of impact. Based on the findings obtained the recommendations for SBU as an institution to consider include the following: (1) a gradual and phase-based turnover of the SBU-CEC programs to the local government unit in Pactil, Bauko, Mountain Province is encouraged; and (2) a targeted and comprehensive agreement and undertaking should still be done by the CEC-SBU concerning its service assistance, monitoring and evaluation – capitalizing on SBU’s various clusters and colleges towards its partner communities.","PeriodicalId":472571,"journal":{"name":"Bedan Research Journal","volume":"324 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135802158","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}
