To improve the implementation of inclusive education (IE) in the Philippines would require assessment of the status of its implementation. This study identified the level of implementation of IE in Region I, Philippines using a validated survey questionnaire administered among one hundred eighty-one (181) faculty members of four (4) state universities and colleges in 2016. Findings revealed that generally inclusive education was 'moderately implemented'. Further, of the three areas assessed, Teachers' Preparation and Competence was rated as high implementation, while both Physical Plant and Facilities and Academic Policies was rated as moderate implementation. Furthermore, age, years in service, academic rank, and highest educational attainment revealed a significant difference in implementation while sex does not show significant difference. These findings could be used to enhance the implementation of inclusive education in Region I, Philippines and in overseas with similar context.

The growing population of students brought the opportunity to welcome diversity inside the classroom, which put ‘inclusive education’ (IE) into implementation in many parts of the world. However, despite the diversity, abilities and disabilities inside the learning environment, teachers and students shared a common goal in education and that is to learn. Thus, educational institutions have delved into implementing programs that would cater each learner’s needs regardless of his abilities and disabilities. Studies regarding successful implementation of inclusive education have been conducted mostly in Middle East countries while in the Philippines; research in this aspect is limited. Hence, this paper was conceptualized to determine the perception and attitude among Filipino High School teachers which takes a huge part in the successful implementation of the program. Moreover, methodology of this study utilized a qualitative descriptive research design among 7 high school teachers which according to Denzin and Lincoln (1994), is a method that involves interpretation of phenomena in order for the researcher to clearly understand on how the respondents make meaning from their past experience. Furthermore, regarding with the results, it is found that teachers were revealed to have moderately defined inclusive education despite the lack of professional training they possess. Additionally, teachers’ attitude towards IE is also investigated and favourable attitudes were revealed by Filipino high school teachers.

This study provided a meta-synthesis of Filipino teachers' experiences with inclusive education. It used 15 of the 214 preliminary researches and was filtered using a set of selection and exclusion criteria. Furthermore, the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) flow diagram was used to arrange the chosen research papers. In six steps by Clark and Braune, constant comparison and thematic analysis yielded eight (8) themes and two (2) meta-themes. According to the findings, 21st-century teachers are progressing in adhering to continuing professional education, adopting inclusion policies, and incorporating instructional innovations and activities to promote inclusivity. Teachers experienced recurring obstacles such as insufficient preparedness and expertise for special education, a lack of educational services, and general social contexts that substantially impact teacher teaching. However, professionalism and perseverance in adjusting inclusion justify the teacher's responsibility to sustain resilience and inventiveness for their students in a challenging educational environment. It concludes that inclusive education necessitates progressive teacher education and ongoing provision of instructional aids and services. It suggests that schools incorporate a variety of training modules and seminars for general education instructors to achieve the criteria for conducting inclusive education programs. In order to resolve the concerns about inclusive education, the local community education committee, parents, teachers, and school personnel should work together.

This article is a study on the knowledge and involvement of schoolteachers, school administrators, and parents of children with special needs (CSN) in the implementation of inclusive education (IE). One set of research questions was aimed at determining the participants' concept of IE and how they are involved in its practice. The other set of questions was aimed at finding whether there is a significant difference among the answers given by the participant groups regarding their concept of and involvement in IE. The problems related to IE were approached using grounded theory and quantitative analysis. Utilizing a modified survey questionnaire, data was collected from 91 participants who have a firsthand knowledge of and experience with inclusive schools located in Quezon City, Metro Manila, Philippines. Research hypotheses were tested after open coding had been completed and an answer was given to each qualitative research question. It has been found that the participants neither question nor resist the practice of inclusion in their respective general education settings. They admit, however, that they are not sure whether their understanding of IE conforms to widely accepted definitions. The participants are in doubt whether their claimed practices are potent enough to be responsive to the requirements of high-level inclusive education. No significant difference was noted among the participants' mean scores in the survey of their knowledge of IE and involvement in IE.

The art of teaching well necessitates constant tuning in with the changing times. To thrive as a teacher, I need to be constantly updated and mindful of the philosophical thoughts behind the changes to anchor my pedagogical approach. One recent challenge requiring special attention is inclusive education. After teaching for more than two decades, I am a witness to how my school, De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde, readily adapts to current and post-modern thoughts in education. Inclusive education has become increasingly manifested in the evolved programs, courses and schools, and the student profile. My academic interest in philosophy of education enables me to rationalize the flow of changes as I continually explore innovative, creative, multi-intelligence, multi-and interdisciplinary approaches in the classroom. In this paper, I share my practice in teaching and learning as I handle increasingly diverse students. I briefly describe my philosophy of education, primary methodology, and support strategies and activities that enable me to flexibly respond to my students' needs. Given the inclusivity challenge, my goal is not only to accommodate their special needs and varied learning styles, but, more importantly, to harness their diversity as an add-on to their total learning experience. This outlook makes me see the added learning opportunity and positivizes my attitude towards accommodating students with special learning needs in my regular classes. I join colleagues who assert that inclusive education may appear daunting, but it is necessary and doable.

Inclusive education ensures that all children have access to an appropriate, relevant, affordable and effective education within their community. Yet, inclusive education is found difficult to build in poorer developing countries. The study looked into the challenges of inclusiveness for teacher education along policy, curriculum, materials, and methodology of State Universities and Colleges (SUCs) in the Philippines offering teacher education programs to estimate their vulnerability. Descriptive survey method of research was employed with the aid of questionnaire checklist which was administered to 89 Deans of the College of Teacher Education of SUCs in the country. Principal component analysis model was obtained and used to determine the coefficients of resilience and vulnerability indices. The study revealed that teacher education institutions in the country were intensely vulnerable in the challenges on policy, curriculum, materials, and methodology. This necessitates that inclusive education policy should be part of the broader dynamics and processes of the policy-making body. Teachers should be learning about, experiencing, and practicing inclusive approaches to teaching and learning throughout their professional development to promoting inclusive education. The needs to be matching revision of the materials used in teacher education programs should be seen essential, and inclusive teaching methodology should be intrinsically linked to and mutually supportive of inclusive curricula.

Every learning institution envisions to uphold the principles of inclusive education. A higher education institution like Eastern Samar State University must accommodate all learners of different backgrounds, with or without special needs. Hence, this phenomenological study was conducted to explore views and experiences of faculty on inclusive education, with particular focus on their encounter with students with special needs (SENs). Data gathered through in-depth interview of five selected faculty members with direct experiences on students with special needs in their classes, were transcribed and coded for themes and patterns. Results revealed that the research participants have the basic understanding of inclusive education. Faculty members consider their inclusive teaching experiences challenging and become more interventionist in providing learning activities to students with and without special needs. Major challenges encountered by the faculty members are on their preparedne...

According to the principle of inclusion, everybody has an inherent right to participate fully in society. Inclusion requires the acceptance of differences. It allows for the inclusion of individuals who would otherwise be denied educational opportunities critical to the development and growth of all students. This study aimed to scrutinize and assess the availability of teaching and learning resources for the implementation of inclusive education at the selected elementary schools in the Division of Agusan del Sur and the Division of Tandag City, Surigao del Sur, Philippines. In order to determine the accessibility of teaching and learning resources and teachers' attitudes toward considering students' assistance needs in the classroom setting, this study would analyze the critical factors in determining whether inclusive education is successfully implemented or unsuccessfully. To collect data for this study, a descriptive survey research design was used. The permanent teachers were the study's target group and its respondents. The introduction of inclusive education at the participating schools will improve curriculum delivery, cater to the requirements of students who require special help, and increase student enrollment and retention at the said schools. The majority of the 150 teachers who responded to the statements and gave their opinions strongly agreed with the assertion. The implementation of inclusive education depends on the availability of teaching and learning resources, which has a detrimental effect.

Madrasah Education Program implementation in the Philippines: an exploratory case study

PurposeThe purpose of the paper is to explore the implementation of Madrasah Education Program (MEP) in selected Arabic Language and Islamic Values Education (ALIVE) schools in Quezon City, Philippines and identify some challenges faced in their implementation practice.Design/methodology/approachThis study utilized qualitative method of research using exploratory study, employing in-depth interviews, document analysis, and observation. The authors used purposive sampling with eight research participants: one Administrator, three ALIVE Coordinators, and four Madrasah Teachers or Asatidz.FindingsThe main findings in the MEP implementation, generally, the schools delivered some program goals through institutional support, pedagogical and instructional development, and enrichment of cultural diversity in the school community. However, the study identified some major challenges affecting the program implementation in selected ALIVE schools such as: lack of permanent infrastructure, limited instructional resources, learners' absenteeism, low and delayed Asatidz allowances, and cultural variances among Muslim Filipinos.Research limitations/implicationsThe results of the study provide a general overview of MEP implementation and the major challenges experienced by program implementers. However, the study is limited to three selected ALIVE schools in the Philippines.Practical implicationsThese results are useful in guiding education stakeholders in evidence-based policymaking to further improve the implementation of Madrasah Education.Originality/valueThis study provides enrichment of evidence-based research especially on the lived experiences of grassroots implementers. Fewer studies on Madrasah Education were conducted outside the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region (BARMM) particularly in the context of a non-Muslim dominated locale.

Pedagogical strategies and challenges of multigrade schoolteachers in Albay, Philippines

PurposeThis paper aims to examine the pedagogical strategies and challenges of selected multigrade (MG) schoolteachers in Albay, Philippines.Design/methodology/approachThis study utilized a case study design using a validated semi-structured instrument with in-depth interviews to ten MG teachers, observation and document analysis. Qualitative data analyses such as content and thematic analyses were used in analyzing the data.FindingsThe results show that MG teachers use a variety of overlapping and supplementary instructional strategies such as (1) teaching one topic to all grades and at varying levels of difficulty using differentiated activity, (2) “jump-jump strategy”/teaching one grade while others work independently and (3) peer teaching or tutoring. However, there are several pedagogical challenges that MG teachers are faced with: (1) conflict between the medium of instructions and grade grouping, (2) problems with lesson planning, (3) unfocused instruction, (4) insufficient learners' materials, (5) absence of training prior to MG teaching and (6) the negative perception of the effectiveness of MG instructions.Research limitations/implicationsThe research is limited within the context of the participants and focuses on the pedagogical strategies and challenges in the implementation of MG teaching.Practical implicationsThe results of this study can serve as a reference on how to support and strengthen MG instruction.Originality/valueThis study provides a research-based overview of MG schools from the grassroots level and adds to the limited studies of MG education in the Philippines.

Rubbing out gender: women and merchant ships

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to show how gender differences are rubbed out and simultaneously reinforced in intentional and unintentional ways. It will do this by exploring the experiences of female cadets/seafarers. Design/methodology/approach – This paper is drawn from two independent PhD theses, where one of the theses conducted ethnographic fieldwork aboard a container ship in 2009. The other thesis used a case study research design of cadetship programmes in the Philippines using structured interviews, observations with the aid of fieldnotes and documentary analysis of records from seven maritime schools and cadetship programmes of ship-owners. Findings – This paper reveals that the merchant vessel remains to be a “man’s world” where female seafarers are marginalised. It also shows that the maritime colleges in the Philippines deploy training practices that reproduce the gender biases against women participation to seafaring because the socialisation of cadets are fraught with the values and symbols of a hegemonic masculinity intent to silence other genders. On board ships, similar contradictory rubbing out and reproducing of gender differentials are observed. This shows how controlling gender is difficult. Research limitations/implications – Observations conducted are limited to one shipboard voyage and whether the same manifestation in different types of ships, ship routes and crew mix would emerge require triangulation with other forms of data collection like in-depth interviews with seafarers on board. Practical implications – Ethnographic insights offer valuable insights for novice researchers and those conducting shipboard research. Originality/value – Not much study has been done with respect to the presence of women on board and how they disrupt and play with masculine space. This paper provides empirical evidence and insights on the ambivalence of integrating women in the seafaring profession owing to official and unofficial policies and training that intentionally and unintentionally construct women as unfit to work as sea-based professionals.

RESPONSE OF MUSLIM MINORITY TOWARDS THE IMPLEMENTATION OF ARABIC LANGUAGE AND ISLAMIC VALUE EDUCATION PROGRAM IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS IN THE PHILIPPINES

Purpose of the Study: This research aims to identify the response level of Muslim minority towards the implementation of Arabic Language and Islamic Values Education Program in the Philippines. The main problems of Islamic educational system which was regarded as an effective element of Islamization was discouraged and narrowed down to give way to secularized educational system in the country and also, how to preserve Islam in a country where they are a minority but where, nevertheless, the fundamental law of the land provides for a secular government. Methodology: In this study, quantitative methodology research was applied and the data were analyzed using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) for Windows version 21 with a total number of respondents as of 272 people. Main Findings: The results showed that the total average means a score of the response of Muslim minority towards the implementation of  Arabic Language and Islamic Values Education Program was at a moderate level with a value of 3.03. However, majority of the respondents agreed that implementation of Arabic Language and Islamic Value Education program is one of the inward-looking tendencies or deepening process of Islamization in the country. Implications: The impact of Arabic Language and Islamic Values Education may educate the children to keep them away from any extremism and radicalism acts.

Managing multichannel coordination in retail banking: the influence of customer participation

PurposeThe purpose of this research is to explore the combining of marketing and organizational literature. This paper seeks to evaluate the relationships between multichannel coordination and customer participation, as seen through the lens of potential customer opportunism. It aims at showing the impact of this opportunism on the organizational design of multiple channels structures.Design/methodology/approachThe research reports on an exploratory case study in a French retail bank. A total of 25 in‐depth interviews were conducted, and the use of other sources enabled data triangulation.FindingsThe results show first that an increase in the number of distribution channels is liable to favor customer opportunistic behavior. To counter this, the bank mainly relies on impersonal coordination modes. An emerging result highlights the role of the customer as a “perceptual filter” between the different channels of employees.Research limitations/implicationsCustomer opportunism is studied via channels employees perceptions. An investigation using a customer survey may help to better understand this construct, e.g. to identify its antecedents, and to measure it precisely. Moreover, further qualitative and/or quantitative studies with larger sample sizes are needed to try and generalize these results.Practical implicationsIt is recommended not to forget that customers can facilitate or hinder multichannel coordination. Retail banks have the power to use them conveniently, provided that they are fully conscious of the scope of the “partial employee” role played by the customer.Originality/valueThis paper broadens understanding of how multichannel distribution structures are coordinated, and in a way belies traditional organizational design literature. The emerging result gives birth to the concept of “reversed interactive marketing”, which has interesting theoretical and practical repercussions.

The role of entrepreneurial families in entrepreneurial ecosystems: the family social capital approach

Purpose This paper aims to investigate how entrepreneurial families (EFs) influence the development of entrepreneurial ecosystems (EEs) by using the family social capital (FSC) approach. Design/methodology/approach For this paper, the authors analyzed the Manizales EE as a case study. The authors used a variety of data collection procedures, including in-depth interviews with 26 entrepreneurs and mentors. Findings The authors established how EFs affect EE development, identifying how the FSC bridging mechanisms impact the EE’s social and cultural attributes, boosting entrepreneurial dynamics. Originality/value The results indicated the relevance of EFs’ embeddedness and the degree of the FSC institutionalization in promoting of entrepreneurship within the EEs.

Classification of halal hotels based on industrial perceived value: a study of Indonesia and Thailand

Purpose The research aims to classify halal hotels based on Islamic values as embodied in both physical and non-physical attributes. Design/methodology/approach This study explores the perceived values of business owners of the halal hotels. Findings Perceptions of hotel owners are divided into three types: those who view the value of halal hotel only in terms of branding and attracting consumers; those who consider the ideology behind halal hotels based on strong Islamic values; and those who avoid halal branding but implement Islamic values in their hotels. For the hotel industry, halal certification is not a priority because a minimum effort at implementing halal standards can already attract Muslim customers. This case is especially true for countries where Muslims make up the majority of the population. Research limitations/implications This study was limited to a case study in Bandung and Bangkok as a representative of halal tourism in Asia. Hence, it could be extended by conducting comparative studies with other cities in Association of South East Asian Nation which already declare to develop halal tourism. Practical implications The findings of this research show that there is a large variety of halal hotel products, depending on the Islamic values upheld, which is causing difficulties for the government in creating standards. Then the result can help inform the government in establishing the strategic framework of halal tourism development, more particularly in the formulation of policy for industrial actors. Originality/value The findings contribute to the concept of product-centered business, in which it is generally assumed that industrial actors are frequently focused on the mere label of “halal” and ignore the true values. However, the research shows that some industrial actors put Islamic values first instead of the mere halal label, and another case shows that some of them implement Islamic values in their business but avoid halal branding. This empirical evidence shows that in halal hotels, the concept of product-centered is not always proper. The quality of halal hotel products depends on the Islamic value of the owner, not always influenced by business imperatives.

Ascertaining the effectiveness of Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) in tackling corruptions in Nigeria

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to appraise the Nigerian Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) of their role in tackling systemic corruptions and to associate how institutional and organizational factors influence the performance of the EFCC. Design/methodology/approach Data were gathered through in-depth interviews, non-participatory observations and documentary analysis. Findings The results of the integrative analysis show that the EFCC has apparently been ineffective, and further improvization of the organization is needed. Poor performance of the EFCC was associated with factors such as lack of commitment, inefficient judiciary, insufficient budgets and incompetent personnel. Practical implications This study recommends further improvements in the form of a greater political will, improved legal process and also elevated budgetary funds and recruitment of personnel to the EFCC. Originality/value The study adopted a descriptive, qualitative case study approach to describe the current state of the EFCC in Nigeria.

Policy Analysis of the Free Education Program Implementation (Case study in Medan 1 Public School)

A grid approach to managing sustainability: evidence from a multiple italian case study.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore the coherence between sustainability conceptualization (the “what”) and its implementation (the “how”) in terms of implemented actions and stakeholders’ interactions. The paper proposes a grid approach for the simultaneous evaluation of sustainability conceptualization and implementation. Design/methodology/approach This research is based on a multiple case study conducted in ten Italian Universities. In-depth interviews with general directors and administrative staff responsible for sustainable activities have been conducted together with documents and websites analysis. Findings The coherence between sustainability conceptualization and its implementation showed heterogeneity of practice. Results propose a grid approach, which highlights six different approaches to explain the connection between the “what” and the “how” of sustainability. Research limitations/implications The research is focused on Italian universities and may have overlooked approaches to campus sustainability specific of other countries. Practical implications Understanding the coherence between the “what” and the “how” of sustainability can provide university managers with a practical tool of analysis when approaching and evaluating the sustainable campus. Originality/value While higher education scholars are widely exploring the conceptualization of a sustainable campus and its implementation, little is known about the coherence between these two realms, despite their importance to facilitate the transition of sustainability vision into real practice. This study contributes to this area by proposing a grid approach to evaluate the coherence between sustainability conceptualization and implementation.

Measuring radical innovation project success: typical metrics don’t work

Purpose Firms frequently struggle with measuring the performance of their radical innovation activities. Due to the uncertainty and ambiguity involved, key performance indicators (KPIs) used for incremental innovation projects are often not useful in this context. The purpose of this paper is to explore suitable KPIs particularly useful for radical innovation projects. Design/methodology/approach This study first reviews commonly used measures for innovation projects, which is then followed by case-study evidence from three industry-leading international firms. This study includes 13 in-depth interviews with innovation managers and directors in these firms, providing insights on how they measure the progress and performance of radical innovation projects. Findings KPIs used commonly in incremental innovation showed lackluster results in the case firms and were problematic for radical innovation context. A key finding was that radical innovation project performance should be evaluated based on the process rather than on the expected outcome. Concurrently, based on the literature review and the cases, three sets of KPIs with 13 specific KPIs useful for radical innovation projects are proposed. Originality/value The paper addresses a core challenge in using established KPIs in a radical innovation context. The paper gathers and synthesizes a range of measurement points suitable for radical innovation projects and provides specific suggestions for appropriate metrics that innovation managers can use.

This chapter offers a brief introduction to Sikolohiyang Pilipino (Filipino psychology) and its proponent Virgilio Enriquez. Afterward, it delves into a discussion of how Sikolohiyang Pilipino can impact both educational institutions and informal institutions such as in family and community settings. The use of Sikolohiyang Pilipino as a lens through which one can view education can deepen one’s understanding of educational concepts within Filipino culture. The chapter focuses on the case of the Philippines and presents the importance of the use of philosophical arguments associated with diverse cultural perspectives to challenge existing biases in research. Emphasis is also placed on the need to be mindful in the process of applying concepts that predominate in one culture to another.
