Abstract

This study explores the practice of peace education in the Philippines in the twenty-first century. Data were collected through interviews and focus group discussions with teachers and students from various schools. Thematic analysis was used to analyze the data, which revealed several key findings. First, the implementation of peace education varies across schools, with some schools prioritizing it more than others. Second, teachers play a crucial role in promoting peace education, particularly those who are passionate about the topic and receive training and support in this area. Third, peace education should be integrated into the formal curriculum and tailored to be age-appropriate and culturally relevant. Fourth, the lack of resources and support is a major challenge in promoting peace education. Fifth, social justice education is an important component of peace education. Lastly, peace education should be promoted at all levels of education, from primary school to university. Overall, the findings highlight the importance of prioritizing peace education and providing resources and support to educators in promoting it. By integrating peace education into the formal curriculum and tailoring it to be age-appropriate and culturally relevant, students can develop positive values and attitudes towards peace and conflict resolution.

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to analyze the views of faculty members on the success of teacher education programs in developing lifelong learning competence. A review of the literature was conducted to gather information on the opinions of faculty members and to identify the key factors that they believe contribute to the success of teacher education programs in this regard. The results of the literature review suggest that the views of faculty members on the success of teacher education programs in developing lifelong learning competence are mixed. Some faculty members believe that these programs are successful in preparing students for a lifetime of learning, while others believe that there is room for improvement. Faculty members who believe that teacher education programs are successful in developing lifelong learning competence often point to the use of hands-on, practical experiences, the incorporation of technology, and opportunities for professional development as key factors in this success. Those who believe that there is room for improvement recommend incorporating more hands-on, practical experiences, providing opportunities for professional development, and incorporating technology in new and innovative ways. In conclusion, the views of faculty members on the success of teacher education programs in developing lifelong learning competence are diverse and complex. Further research is needed to determine the most effective ways to prepare students for a lifetime of learning and to assess the success of teacher education programs in this regard.
