This study analyzed these forms’ nature, patterns, and potential linguistic implications to uncover the reasons behind their existence and persistence. The study employed descriptive approached and data-based methodologies, utilizing the SEAlang Library Indonesian Corpus (SLIC) as the primary data source. The results revealed unique features of unproductive morphological forms in Indonesian, characterized by specific affixational patterns, including the morphologically marked infixes {-em-}, {-er-}, {-el-}, and {-in-}. These forms also exhibited semantic limitations limited to particular word classes or semantic domains. Additionally, a confluence of cognitive and linguistic influences contributed to the phenomenon of unproductive word forms. The study also identified boundaries and constraints within morphological productivity, exploring unproductive morphological forms to provide insights into the micro-change of the language. This study’s findings could advance broader aspects of morphological theory and language description.","PeriodicalId":502349,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Education and Social Studies","volume":"12 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140244520","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 study was guided by three specific objectives: exploring the significance of teamwork among community secondary school teachers, examining the strategies employed by school heads to promote teacher teamwork, and identifying the challenges they face in this endeavor. Utilizing a qualitative research approach and a case study design, the study employed non-probability sampling, selecting 25 teachers for group discussions, and interviewing 5 heads of schools. The findings revealed the importance of teamwork for both student performance and overall school success. Despite the efforts of school heads, the promotion of teamwork was found to be insufficient due to a lack of proper knowledge and techniques in establishing and conducting it. Various challenges were identified, including the inadequate technical and interpersonal skills among school heads, attributed to inadequate training. The study recommends that government leaders provide training to school heads on managerial techniques for promoting teamwork and offer motivation to teachers to enhance their morale and work motivation. In conclusion, the study advocates for recognizing teacher teamwork as a fundamental element in motivating teachers, improving efficiency, and fostering the development of innovative ideas for overall school effectiveness.","PeriodicalId":502349,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Education and Social Studies","volume":"203 1‐6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140256331","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}

Three research instruments were used: the Adults Survey Reading Attitudes Questionnaire (ASRA) adapted by Anugrah, Gardner’s Attitude / Motivation Test Battery (AMI), and the Reading comprehension questionnaire adapted from the Philippine Informal Reading Inventory (Phil-Iri). This study utilized Mean, Standard Deviation, and correlation analysis through Pearson product-moment correlation. Results revealed that there is a high level of reading attitude (x=4.08, SD=.612) and motivation (x=4.06, SD=.451) but there is a very low reading comprehension (x=3.11, SD=1.006) among the respondents. Furthermore, the findings revealed no significant relationship between reading attitude and reading comprehension (r=0.032, p=0.620) and only learning motivation is a predictor of reading comprehension (r=0.200, p=0.002). This implies that the respondents have a positive attitude toward reading but it does not affect their reading comprehension. This further implies that students who are motivated to read can improve their reading comprehension. Hence, the respondents with high interest in their reading activity comprehend more than those without interest.","PeriodicalId":502349,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Education and Social Studies","volume":"27 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140259572","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}

Using a descriptive-correlational research design, a total of 174 senior high school students of a secondary education institution in Davao City, Philippines, were surveyed using standardized questionnaires. In retrospect to the mandate of the IATF on the classification of Davao City, whereby physical and/or face-to-face survey conduct is not feasible, the researcher conducted an online survey. The data was analyzed using the mean, standard deviation (SD), Pearson product-moment correlation, and simple and multiple linear regression. The findings revealed that the level of learning strategies, readiness towards blended learning, and satisfaction of learners was high. Both learning strategies and blended learning readiness were significantly (p=0.000) positively correlated with student satisfaction. Students who had better learning strategies and are more prepared for blended learning tend to be more satisfied with it. Both factors also individually have a significant (p=0.000) positive influence on satisfaction. This suggested that each factor on its own contributes to higher satisfaction. Even when considered together, both factors still significantly (p=0.000) influence satisfaction. This indicated that they both play independent roles in determining student satisfaction.","PeriodicalId":502349,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Education and Social Studies","volume":"28 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140261730","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}
