Correlation of the learning styles and application of VARK (visual, aural, reading-writing, and kinesthetic) model in the delivery of foundations to health care on Grade 11 students of De La Salle Medical and Health Sciences Institute
No full textThis research study aims to recognize the diverse learning styles of students as crucial for creating a more inclusive and effective educational environment through the application of the VARK Model (Visual, Auditory, Reading/Writing, and Kinesthetic). The study focuses on the specialized subject of Foundations to Health Care at De La Salle Medical and Health Sciences Institute. Understanding that learning is not one-size-fits-all, this study delves into the necessity of acknowledging varied learning styles, aptitudes and abilities of learners in the teaching process to provide each student the best opportunity to succeed academically. Employing a correlational quantitative research design and stratified random sampling, data is gathered via Google Forms from 198 selected Grade 12 respondents. Findings reveal a weak and statistically insignificant relationship between learning styles and the VARK Model teaching approach. However, the study emphasizes the importance of understanding diverse learning needs in enhancing educational outcomes. This study aligns with Sustainable Development Goal 4 (Quality Education) as it advocates for inclusive and equitable quality education that meets the diverse learning needs of all students. The results contribute to the development of student-centered learning environments, particularly in specialized subjects like Foundations to Health Care, and encourage teachers to explore diverse teaching methods. By optimizing teaching methods based on students’ learning styles, this study fosters lifelong opportunities for individuals
Evaluating the effectiveness in physicochemical properties of dalanghita (Citrus nobilis) peel essential oil and guar gum coating in the preservation of lakatan banana (Musa acuminata) shelf life
No full textLakatan bananas (Musa acuminata) are one of the prime products imported and exported by the Philippines all year-round; however, its short life span leads to loss in revenue. In this quantitative experimental study, the effectiveness of Dalanghita (Citrus nobilis) peel essential oil (DPEO) and Guar Gum powder as edible coating is determined in prolonging the shelf-life of Lakatan bananas (Musa acuminata) in terms of its physical, chemical, and microbiological properties. The randomized control block research design was utilized using different test concentrations to treat the Lakatan bananas (Musa acuminata). For the entirety of the five-day experiment, the treatments with lower concentrations of DPEO showed promising results on the chemical aspect of the Lakatan bananas (Musa acuminata) namely, in terms of the Titratable acidity. In contrast, unfavorable results were observed among the samples treated with the highest concentration of DPEO excluding the results from the Weight loss percentage test as there were no significant findings. To conclude, DPEO and Guar gum powder as edible coating is partially effective in prolonging the shelf-life of Lakatan bananas (Musa acuminata) in the aspect of Titratable acidity. Consequently, this research was able to open a new discussion on alternatives for edible coating using locally available fruits in the Philippines as a component
