The study was conducted to determine the work challenges among hotel and restaurant management staff in Butuan City. The researchers employed a descriptive comparative approach for this study. Based on the findings, there is a moderate extent of work challenges among hotel and restaurant management staff in Butuan City. This means that the extent of challenges sometimes coincides with the respondents’ experience. In addition, there is no significant difference in the work challenges faced by the hotel and management staff in Butuan City. Moreover, the challenges faced by hotel and restaurant management staff in Butuan City. The data reveals that lack of recognition as the top challenge; poor communication and work schedules are also significant challenges. Furthermore, Herzberg's Two-Factor Theory supports the study's findings by highlighting the importance of addressing both hygiene factors and motivators. Since the findings show that the hotel and restaurants lack recognition, to address the challenge of lack of recognition, hotel and restaurant management should implement a structured employee recognition program. This program can include monthly or quarterly awards, shout-outs during meetings, or employee of the month acknowledgments
School Heads’ Leadership Styles: Impact on Organizational Innovativeness and Performance of Public Elementary Schools in the New Normal
Get PDFThis study determines the impact of school heads’ leadership styles on organizational innovativeness and performance of public elementary schools in Cebu City Division in the new normal. Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) was utilized to investigate the linear causal relationships among the variables. Moreover, the study found that transformational leadership of the school head is not related to the organizational innovativeness of the school. However, transactional, and instrumental leadership influence the organizational innovativeness of the schools. On one hand, participative leadership only promotes product innovation, while supportive leadership augments management innovation directly. Lastly, product innovation of the school impacts the school’s performance
Promoting Intellectual Property Propaganda Activities in Vocational Education Institutions: An Assessment from a Management Perspective
Get PDFAlong with the comprehensive innovation of Vietnam’s education system, vocational education is positively changing, making great contributions to the country’s education system. Along with the university education system, vocational education is considered a place to create new knowledge and technology; but up to now, the number of applications to establish protection of industrial property rights, especially inventions, still accounts for a low rate; the understanding of education and training staff in vocational education institutions (VEIs) about intellectual property rights is not high. Based on the study of state legal documents on intellectual property rights, this article surveyed 300 people who are managers, teachers, students, and pupils at several educational institutions in Ho Chi Minh City through surveys and interview questions. VEIs do not pay much attention to intellectual property activities in general and intellectual property propaganda activities in particular; there is no long-term plan and policy for implementing intellectual property activities and intellectual property propaganda at VEIs. Based on that reality, and an assessment of the current situation combined with state legal documents, this article proposes some management solutions to promote intellectual property activities and intellectual property propaganda activities in VEIs in near the future
A Generational Perspective of the Determinants of Work-Life Balance of Secondary School Teachers in Gingoog City Division: Basis for a Teacher Wellness Initiative
Get PDFThe education sector is increasingly recognizing the significance of teachers' well-being and the impact of a healthy work-life balance on organizational success. This study focused on identifying factors influencing the quality of Work-Life Balance (WLB) among secondary school teachers in 14 schools in Gingoog City Division. The research employed a sequential explanatory mixed-method approach, gathering both numerical and qualitative data from 283 teachers. The results indicated that millennial educators reported the highest satisfaction, tested at 0.05 level, with their WLB, followed by Generation X, Gen Z, and Boomer teachers. The study identified six key factors influencing WLB, with career progression emerging as a common predictor across all generations. Additionally, financial condition was a significant factor for boomers, autonomy and financial condition for Generation X teachers, financial condition and technological literacy for millennial teachers, and technological literacy, social support, and autonomy for Gen Z teachers. The research also unveiled facilitating factors such as work-life balance principles, workload management strategies, preferences for school support systems, and self-care practices. Conversely, hindering factors included workload pressures and time management challenges, difficulties in the work environment, and frustrations related to DepEd policies. Based on these findings, a Teachers Wellness Program is proposed to be incorporated in the Enhanced School Improvement Plan (ESIP) to promote the WLB of teachers across different generational cohorts

Get PDFMathematics is a basic science that has a very important influence on life, because mathematics can prepare and develop students' abilities to think logically, flexibly and precisely to solve problems in their daily lives. This research is research into the development of mathematics worksheet for elementary school students. The aims of this research were to 1) determine the validity of CTL-based LKPD on cube and block materials; 2) find out the practicality of CTL-based LKPD on cube and block materials; and 3) determine the effectiveness of CTL-based LKPD on cube and block materials. This research was conducted at SD Negeri 101964 Jaharun A with research subjects namely 25 class V students. The validators in this research consisted of material experts, media experts and language experts. Teachers and students as product users test the practicality of CTL-based LKPD. This type of research is research and development with the ADDIE model (Analyze, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation). The research instruments used were interviews, validation sheets, teacher and student response questionnaires, as well as test instruments in the form of test essays. The data collection techniques in this research are interviews and tests, with data analysis techniques for testing validity, level of difficulty, distinguishing power, and reliability for test instruments, and n-gain tests. The results of this research show that the CTL-based LKPD is declared feasible because it meets the criteria of being valid, practical and effective for use in teaching mathematics regarding cubes and blocks
French Language Learning Media Based on Project-Based Learning Assisted by the Pear Deck Application
Get PDFThe purpose of this research is to determine (1) the feasibility of learning media assisted by the Pear Deck application based on project-based learning (PjBL). (2) determine the effectiveness of PjBL-based learning media. The research method is R&D using the Borg and Gall development models. This research was conducted in class XI SMAN 1 Lubuk Pakam, totaling 28 students. The research subjects are material experts, media experts, and design experts. The research results show that: (1) the learning material expert test criteria are very good (94%); (2) the learning media expert test criteria are very good (93%); and (3) the learning design expert test criteria are very good (94%). The results of submitting a hypothesis can prove that: (1) learning media assisted by the PjBL-based Pear Deck application is suitable for use (2) The learning media assisted by the PjBL-based Pear Deck application is effective to use. The average effectiveness of students' French learning outcomes in using the PjBL-based Pear Deck Application in the experiment class was 86.42%, and the average effectiveness of the average effectiveness of students who used picture and book learning media in the control class was 49.5%. The posttest results obtained a value of Tcount = 7.08 at a significant level of α = 0.05, with dk 27 obtaining Ttable = 1.674, so that Tcount > Ttable, namely 7.08 > 1.674. The use of learning media assisted by the PjBL-based Pear Deck application is very feasible and effective
