ADDURU Education Program Supervisor Division of Tuguegarao City I. KRISBURT L. DELOS SANTOS Teacher-III Cagayan National High School Introduction and Rationale Science education, together with engineering and technology is important. It is not just a learning area or field of study in both basic and higher education but also a way of life. Science helps a person acquire new knowledge and develops creative and thinking skills. Engineering and technology allows the application of what has been learned and enhances the acquired skills towards development of new paradigms or models and creation of new things. People around the world have been enjoying the results of Science education, engineering and technology. Section 02 of RA No. 10612 states that Science, technology and engineering are essential for national development and progress. The State shall give priority to research and development, invention, innovation and their utilization. Priority shall also be given to science and technology education, FM-SGO-RES-004 Rev. 00 Basic Research Proposal Template 1 Republic of the Philippines Department of Education Region II – Cagayan Valley SCHOOLS DIVISION OF TUGUEGARAO CITY training and services. Hence, the role of Science education in national development is recognized by the Philippine government. The importance of Science education has been underscored in the “Science and Technology Master Plan of 2000” with a view to the Philippines joining the group of newly industrialized countries based on the recognition that the quality improvement of secondary and higher education and promotion of science and technology are essential for the development of the country (SEI-DOST & UP NISMED, 2011). The Philippine government has put Science education as a priority with the implementation of the Engineering and Science Education Project (ESEP) in 1996 funded by World Bank. One of the six areas financed by the project is the secondary school science and mathematics which involved 110 secondary schools. (World Bank, 1998). These secondary schools offer Special Science Classes (SSC). In the Division of Tuguegarao City, Cagayan National High School is one among the 110 S&T oriented secondary schools in the country as per DO No. 104, s. 2010 Revised List of Science and Technology (S&T) Oriented High Schools Implementing the Engineering and Science Education Program (ESEP). The school started offering the Special Science Classes in 1993 up to present. The Division of Tuguegarao City is also one among the divisions in region 02 to have a science high school system. The Tuguegarao Science High School was established in the Division in 2007 as a Legislated Science High School, with a curriculum patterned from the Regional Science High Schools. The schools have been excelling in Science and Mathematics as evident in their performance in Science and Math contests such as the Intel-International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF). Records show that aside from national FM-SGO-RES-004 Rev. 00 Basic Research Proposal Template 2 Republic of the Philippines Department of Education Region II – Cagayan Valley SCHOOLS DIVISION OF TUGUEGARAO CITY contests, there have been 3 international contests participated upon by the students from the Special Science Classes and Science High School. However, joining in international contests does not guarantee or is not an enough parameter of a successful program implementation. It is also worth noting that a review or assessment was not yet conducted since the implementation of the Special Science classes in the division. Therefore, this study will be conducted to evaluate the extent of implementation of the Science, Technology and Engineering (STE) Program and Science High School System in the Division of Tuguegarao City II. Literature Review School and Program Evaluation Evaluating Educational Programs is used when efforts at systematically assessing a program multiplied. The purpose of this kind of evaluation is to provide information to decision-makers who have responsibility for existing or proposed educational problem. For instance, program evaluation may be used to help make decisions concerning whether to develop a program (needs assessment), how best to develop a program (formative evaluation), and whether to modify or even continue an existing program (Samuel Ball, 2017). Program evaluation is a research designed to assess the implementation and effects of a program. Its purposes vary and can include (1) program improvement, (2) judging the value of a program, (3) assessing the utility of particular components of a program, and (4) meeting accountability requirements. Results of program evaluations are often used for decisions about FM-SGO-RES-004 Rev. 00 Basic Research Proposal Template 3 Republic of the Philippines Department of Education Region II – Cagayan Valley SCHOOLS DIVISION OF TUGUEGARAO CITY whether to continue a program, improve it, institute similar programs elsewhere, allocate resources among competing programs, or accept or reject a program approach or theory. Through these uses, program evaluation is viewed as a way of rationalizing policy decision-making. Program evaluation is conducted for a wide range of programs, from broad social programs such as welfare, to large multisite programs. Scientific Research versus Evaluation There has been some debate about the relationship between "basic" or scientific research and program evaluation. For example, in 1999 Peter Rossi, Howard Freeman, and Michael Lipsey described program evaluation as the application of scientific research methods to the assessment of the design and implementation of a program. In contrast, Michael Patton in 1997 described program evaluation not as the application of scientific research methods, but as the systematic collection of information about a program to inform decisionmaking. Both agree, however, that in many circumstances the design of a program evaluation that is sufficient for answering evaluation questions and providing guidance to decision-makers would not meet the high standards of scientific research. Further, program evaluations are often not able to strictly follow the principles of scientific research because evaluators must confront the politics of changing actors and priorities, limited resources, short timelines, and imperfect program implementation. Another dimension on which scientific research and program evaluation differ is their purpose. Program evaluations must be designed to maximize the usefulness for decision-makers, whereas scientific research does not have this FM-SGO-RES-004 Rev. 00 Basic Research Proposal Template 4 Republic of the Philippines Department of Education Region II – Cagayan Valley SCHOOLS DIVISION OF TUGUEGARAO CITY constraint. Both types of research might use the same methods or focus on the same subject, but scientific research can be formulated solely from intellectual curiosity, whereas evaluations must respond to the policy and program interests of stakeholders (i.e., those who hold a stake in the program, such as those who fund or manage it, or program staff or clients). How Did Program Evaluation Evolve? Program evaluation began proliferating in the 1960s, with the dawn of social antipoverty programs and the government's desire to hold the programs accountable for positive results. In addition to focusing on the relative strengths and weaknesses of experiments and quasi-experiments, criticisms of early largescale education evaluations highlighted the importance of measuring implementation. For example, McLaughlin and Berman's RAND Change Agent study and the Follow-Through evaluation demonstrated that implementation of a specific program can differ a great deal from one site to the next. If an evaluation is designed to attribute effects to a program, varying implementation of the same program reduces the value of the evaluation, because it is unclear how to define the program. Thus, it is necessary to include in a program evaluation a complete description of how the program is being implemented, to allow the examination of implementation fidelity to the original design, and to discover any cross-site implementation differences that would affect outcomes. In 1967 Michael Scriven first articulated the idea that there were two types of evaluation–one focused on evaluating implementation, called formative evaluation, and one focused on evaluating the impact of the program, called summative evaluation. He argued that emerging programs should be the subject FM-SGO-RES-004 Rev. 00 Basic Research Proposal Template 5 Republic of the Philippines Department of Education Region II – Cagayan Valley SCHOOLS DIVISION OF TUGUEGARAO CITY of formative evaluations, which are designed to see how well a program was implemented and to improve implementation; and that summative evaluations should be reserved for programs that have been well-established and have stable and consistent implementation. Related to the idea of formative and summative evaluation is a controversy over the extent to which the evaluator should be a program insider or an objective third party. In formative evaluations, it can be argued that the evaluator needs to become somewhat of an insider, in order to become part of the formal and informal feedback loop that makes providing program improvement information possible. In contrast, summative evaluations conducted by a program insider foster little confidence in the results, because of the inherent conflict of interest.

In contrast, summative evaluations conducted by a program insider foster little confidence in the results, because of the inherent conflict of interest. Stakeholder and Utilization Approaches Still another criticism of early education evaluations was that stakeholders felt uninvolved in the evaluations; did not agree with the goals, measures, and procedures; and thus rejected the findings. This discovery of the importance to the evaluation of stake-holder buy-in led to what Michael Patton termed stakeholder or utilization-focused evaluation. Stake-holder evaluation bases its design and execution on the needs and goals of identified stakeholders or users, FM-SGO-RES-004 Rev. 00 Basic Research Proposal Template 7 Republic of the Philippines Department of Education Region II – Cagayan Valley SCHOOLS DIVISION OF TUGUEGARAO CITY such as the funding organization, a program director, the staff, or clients of the program. In the context of stakeholder evaluation, Patton in 1997 introduced the idea that it is sometimes appropriate to conduct goal-free evaluation. He suggested that evaluators should be open to the idea of conducting an evaluation without preconceived goals because program staff might not agree with the goals and because the goals of the program might change over time. Further, he argued that goal-free evaluation avoids missing unanticipated outcomes, removes the negative connotation to side effects, eliminates perceptual biases that occur when goals are known, and helps to maintain evaluator objectivity. Goals are often necessary, however, to guide and focus the evaluation and to respond to the needs of policymakers. As a result, Patton argued that the use of goals in program evaluation should be decided on a case-by-case basis. A research study entitled “A REVIEW ON THE ISSUES IN THE IMPLEMENTATION OF K+12 SCIENCE CURRICULUM: A BASELINE STUDY” which aims to review the problems on the issues in the implementation of K+12 Science Curriculum showed that there was decongestion of the topics for all areas of science especially the Biology. It shows that decongestion has to do with the retention and possible increase of knowledge to students. The teachers identified the main role of the module, activities, and time for the success of the implementation of the new curriculum. Module and activities are demanding and time problem floated as a result of the delay of the matrix of schedule to finish the lesson. Also, it was pointed out that the previous lessons are very essential FM-SGO-RES-004 Rev. 00 Basic Research Proposal Template 8 Republic of the Philippines Department of Education Region II – Cagayan Valley SCHOOLS DIVISION OF TUGUEGARAO CITY in order to build up the knowledge to be connected to the next lesson. Further, it was emphasized the strengthening of the basic concepts from lower years so that the students and teachers will have their smooth mainstreaming to the next lesson. Evaluating Teaching in Science, Technology, Mathematics: Principles and Research Findings Engineering, and The research literature suggests that for purposes of any formative or summative evaluation, assessment that is based on a single teaching activity (e.g., classroom presentation) or depends on information from a single source (e.g., student evaluation forms) is less reliable, useful, and valid than an assessment of an teacher’s strengths and weaknesses that is based on multiple sources (Centra, 1993). Informal assessments of a faculty member’s work that are used primarily to provide feedback and reinforcement to a colleague for purposes of ongoing professional development and improvement are characterized as formative evaluations. In contrast, evaluations that are used for purposes of rendering formal personnel decisions and that are based on a variety of data are often called summative evaluations (Scriven, 1993; review by Licata and Moreale, 1997more accurate, particularly when based on the views of current and former students, colleagues, and the instructor or department being reviewed. The process of evaluating teaching has been found to work best when all faculty members in a given department (or, in smaller colleges, from across the institution) play a strong role in developing policies and procedures. This is the case because evaluation criteria must be clear, well known and understood, scheduled regularly, and acceptable to all who will be involved with rendering or FM-SGO-RES-004 Rev. 00 Basic Research Proposal Template 9 Republic of the Philippines Department of Education Region II – Cagayan Valley SCHOOLS DIVISION OF TUGUEGARAO CITY receiving evaluation (Alverno College Faculty, 1994; Gardiner et al., 1997; Loacker, 2001; Wergin, 1994; Wergin and Swingen, 2000). Review of Departmental and Institutional Records The number and levels of courses taught and the number of students enrolled in each course or section taught by the instructor over time. This information can provide evaluators with insight and perspective regarding the number of preparations required; the amount of time needed for advising students; and, in some cases, the commitment of time necessary to correct examinations, term papers, and reports. The number of undergraduate students advised, mentored, or supervised by the faculty member. This information can be accompanied by opinions about the quality of the advice or mentoring received. The number of undergraduate students the faculty member has guided in original or applied research, the quality of their research as measured through presentations and publications, and their professional attainments while under the faculty member’s supervision and later in their careers. The number of graduate students mentored in their preparation as teaching assistants or future faculty members and their effectiveness in teaching. Review of the Documentation Faculty Member’s Teaching Portfolio and Other Evidence of the faculty member’s adaptation of instructional techniques for courses, laboratories, or field activities so as to demonstrably improve student learning by achieving course objectives.
