Abstract

With the implementation of Mother Tongue-based Multilingual Education (MTBMLE) framework, there is a dire need to create community-based standardization of orthography for native languages in the Philippines, and this includes the Surigaonon language as only few languages in the Philippines have educational materials written for teaching and learning mother tongue. It is also rare for the development of such materials to involve community participation. This research aims to provide preliminary points of discussion for language policymakers and create an alternative in developing materials through community engagement. Using the Community-based Approach to Orthography Development by Catherine Easton in 2003, this study asked seventy (70) Surigaonon speakers from different parts of the province to spell out 78 items of Surigaonon words, phrases, and sentences. From this corpus, the researcher analyzed the forms of several initially observed orthographic issues. Out of 18 consonants and 3 vowels that exist in the language, five critical orthographic issues were identified. These key issues are significant in the continuous development of Surigaonon orthography. The first two issues that arose from this study is the inconsistent forms for the vowel sounds [?] and [u]. Though the written form i is mostly used for the [?] sound, the [u] sound remains unpredictable as it is either spelled out u or o. The same case of unpredictability occurs for the affricates [d?] and [t?] as the former is spelled out as either j, dj, dz, or ds while the latter is spelled out as ts or ch. Lastly, the use of dash is erratic as a representation for a glottal stop between vowels.

Abstract

Dental caries affect 87.4% of Filipinos while 48.3% have periodontal disease. In most developing low-income countries like the Philippines, more than 90% of caries is untreated. Because of the evident disparities in health, high cost of healthcare, unaffordable and unavailable health service, there was a call for reorientation towards prevention on a mass scale by the World Health Organization. This pushed for oral health promotion in schools. Schools give an ideal setting for introducing preventive measures for health with the objective of developing sustainable health promoting behavior change and long-term health outcome improvements. The dental interns from the University of the Philippines College of Dentistry use community-based education to assist the community in developing programs that promote, achieve, and maintain oral health. The partners tapped in the inter-local health zone of AMIGA in Cavite were the elementary and high schools in the 5 municipalities. The schools engaged in the program depended on the priority barangay identified by both AMIGA and the University. Thus, needs analysis was the first step in isolating the emergent oral health problem and eventually drafting the program. Consultation and presentation of the oral health status of the students to the stakeholders, specifically parents, teachers, municipal dentist, municipal health officer, and local government officials were scheduled so that the needed support and commitment are both realized. The programs and activities done in the partner school were Oral Screening, Atraumatic Restorative Treatments, Scaling and Polishing, Topical Fluoride Application, and Oral Health Promotion. Both preventive and curative treatment modalities were employed in addressing dental disease. Choice of strategy was dependent on the resources of each municipality and reflects the prioritization of the local government on health. Success of the programs relied heavily on the participation of all the stakeholders from organizing, financing, promotion, and implementation. Endorsement of the activities to the municipal dentist, together with referrals of specific cases not managed in the community setting was done to facilitate monitoring and evaluation.

Abstract

Two villages in Cebu City, represented by 22 farmer-scientists, chose to conduct the third phase of their Urban Vegetable-Gardening Project in two relocation sites in the municipality of Bogo City to help displaced fisher folks affected by Typhoon Haiyan in 2013. The study aimed to determine the results of the project in addressing the eminent hunger in the relocation sites; and discuss the effects of communities’ initiatives in assisting fellow communities. The operation of the project emphasized collaboration between institutions, and communities’ involvement in decision-making and activities – all boils down to community engagement (Attree et al., 2011; Holland and Ramaley, 2008). The study was conducted in SM and Yolanda relocation sites in Bogo City from January to July 2016. Thirty randomly selected farmer-participants were interviewed using a questionnaire which was pre-tested and validated. Key informant interviews, focus group discussions and secondary data gathering were also done. The project results noted were: 1) immediate food sources, especially in urban areas like the two relocation sites where there is limited space to plant; 2) increased in yield and income based on farmers’ records; and 3) improved social capital (building trust, knowledge sharing and provision of assistance) among farmers, local government units and universities brought by communities’ involvement in project implementation. It is therefore concluded that vegetable-gardening in the relocations sites could provide immediate food and income sources consistent with previous studies (Ozawa, 2010; PCCAARD, 2007). Further, community’s engagement in extension projects facilitates not only technology and knowledge dissemination but also social capital and community networks and linkages, also consistent with previous studies (Ozawa, 2010). Based on the positive outcomes recognized, the project is recommended for expansion to other urban areas in Cebu province.

Abstract

Dieng is a plateau in Central Java Province where most of the land is managed for agriculture. Peoples cultivate potato and holticultural plant as the main comodities. In addition, they also began to cultivate fruit crops, carica. The cultivation and utilization of carica is a form of Dieng plateau area erotion conservation. For the past few years, carica has begun to be processed by farmers into a variety of processed foods and drinks, such as jam, sweets, chips, and carica syrup. Our partners in the Community Engagement Grants program here is a collection of home industries in the field of carica drink which is then named as Carica Dieng Production House (CDPH). One of the problem that they are faced is about production system. In addition, this community experienced a loss of opportunity due to the media for marketing. This Community Engagement Program has a purpose on process improvement. Improvements are divided into several aspects, such as product innovation, manufacturing process improvement, financial planning and accounting, and marketing. Improvements in the waste disposal system are also made to benefit. The methodology that we used in this paper is divided into 3 main areas, which areas are pre-action phase, core phase, and monitoring and evaluations. The output of this activity is to make a good product in all process aspects. All of this can not be separated from the main goal in creating superior products that can compete in national and global markets.

Abstract

The level of literacy among rural communities is still relatively low in Malaysia even though the overall country’s literacy rate is considerably high. Literacy rates among indigenous people are lowest in remote community especially in Sabah and Sarawak. Reasons include low literacy of the parents and poor school attendance. Initiatives for the indigenous community like the Accelerated Literacy Program attempts to bring literacy to a similar level to that of their non-indigenous peers. This study aims to develop and implement a community engagement project through the Literacy Advocacy Program among Orang Sungai who dwells in remote area in Sabah. This is study adopted Community Participation Action Research. Data were gathered through community asset-mapping form on 187 community members and focus group discussion with the community teachers (n=6) . The findings of the asset mapping exercise showed that almost 40% of the Orang Sungai did not attend any formal education. A total of 66% of household heads have no formal occupation and mostly they were farmers. Reasons include they were unable to read, write or count. The findings also showed that there is a need for community literacy program so as to empower the community in the development of the nation. Therefore, the Literacy Advocacy Program was planned using a set of Literacy Advocacy Module. The module consist of 13 sub-modules which require a total of 42-hours of adult learning hours. This program which was conducted in the community hall was participated by 21 community members. The community teachers to carry out the program learning activities were appointed among local trained teachers. Upon completion of the program, participants underwent an oral assessment to measure the effectiveness of the program. The program has showed effective impacts in the adult learning process and the community at large. It has implications on extending similar format to other marginalised communities in Malaysia.

Abstract

A previous study demonstrated that low-incomewomen tend to have lower financial literacy. This low level of financialliteracy affects the manner in which they manage their daily finances, as wellas their ability to save for long-term needs. Currently, the statistics show that financialliteracy in Indonesia is relatively low. Tosupport Indonesian government in improving financial literacy, especially among the mostmarginalized group – women of low income – Universitas Indonesia launched acommunity engagement initiative conducted in the form of financial literacytraining targeted at low-income women working as streetsweepers around the university. This study investigates the motivation toward andperceived usefulness of the financial education program to improve the financial literacy of low-income women working as street sweepers aroundUniversitas Indonesia. A mixed research method is applied in the study. The data were collected from in-depthinterviews and a mini survey conducted to 23 low-income female street sweepers who joined the 10weeks financial education program. Both quantitative and qualitative data wereanalyzed to produce a comprehensive descriptionof the participants’ perceptions and attitudes toward the financial literacyprogram. The study demonstrates that the majority of low-income women have lowmotivation toward financial literacy education, and they also have a negative perceptionof the usefulness of such program. Thus, it is very important that alleducators and trainers examine the characteristics of the trainees and assessthe relevancy of the education program before they design certain communityengagement program.

Abstract

Using Community Organizing Participatory Action Research(COPAR) as the main framework for the multiple data-gathering methods utilizedin the study, the researcher addressed the following objectives: (1) to assessthe educational needs of the Lumad and peasant communities in light of theimplementation of Republic Act 10533, and (2) to developa curriculum that addresses the needs of the Lumad and peasant communitiesconsidering the learning competencies stipulated by RA 10533. Freire’s methodof education was maximized as participants in the research included men, women,and children who learned toassess their role in their community as agents of change with the goal ofachieving social transformation through education. Still adhering to Freire’smethod of education, the intended curriculum that was designed is simple andeasy to understand, integrative, and perceptive of the social realitiessurrounding the Lumads and other peasant learners. From the state-approvedcurriculum, the new alternative curriculum ensured the presence of lessons andactivities with a positive influence on all the aspects of a child’sdevelopment: physical, emotional, social, linguistic, aesthetic, and cognitivethrough the application of the outcomes-based education (OBE) framework. Curriculumdesign also utilized the Makabayan (nationalist), Makamasa (mass-oriented), andSiyentipiko (scientific) (MMS) orientation, which is based on rooted assessmentof the needs of the community learners. The integration of OBE with MMSframework is expected to result in transformative education that can producelifelong learners who will aspire to be part of national development whilepromoting their identity and the good of their communities. The researchprocess undertaken proved that community immersion provides an opportunity forself-reflexivity that can result in a more inclusive curriculum design. Lastly,it can be concluded that community organizing in education is a painstaking andendless process of collaborations, which, if purposeful and sustained, canpositively impact the communities.

Abstract

Students’ behaviortowards waste takes a crucial role to successful sustainable waste managementat school level. As many scholars mentioned, a proper waste management shouldnot only environmentally effective and economically efficient, but alsosocially acceptable. Therefore, it is important to know how to drive studentsto behave more environmental friendly. Using eco-friendly behavior survey forstudents as part of community engagement program titled “Creating Healthy, Fitand Productive Generation through Comprehensive Mental Revolution Model”, thispaper aims to identify factors that determine students’ eco-friendly behavior.This survey was administered to 797 students from three high schools in thecity of Bekasi, SMA N 1 Bekasi, SMA N 2 Bekasi and SMK Korpri. We divided threebroad characteristics in determining student’s eco-friendly behavior, namelyindividual characteristics, household characteristics and communitycharacteristics, as mentioned in various researches. The result shows that outof three broad characteristics, individual characteristics play significantrole in determining the level of student’s eco-friendly behavior. In terms ofindividual characteristics, knowledge about waste and school course playspositive and significant role in determining the level. For the study course,we conclude that students in the science course have a relatively higher eco-friendlybehavior level compared to social course or others. Female students are alsomore likely to have higher level of eco-friendly behavior rather than malestudents. Finally, daily expenditure significantly determines the level. On theother hand, we found that environmental concern and class rank do not havesignificant effect to student’s behavior. In addition, none of the householdand community characteristics variables were significant in determining thebehavior. This result emphasizes the importance of individual characteristicsimprovement, especially waste knowledge and environmental education, to drivestudents in dealing waste appropriately.
