Development and Validation of Framework, Design, and Prototype/s for Career Advancement Programs: Research Report

This report presents a summary of research processes undertaken in the development and validation of the framework, design, and prototype for career advancement programs, focusing on the Career Advancement Program (CAPRO) for Teachers. As the primary provider of technical assistance to DepEd in the implementation of the National Educators Academy of the Philippines (NEAP) Transformation, RCTQ's work included research and technical assistance on program transformation. The objective of this study is to propose a benchmark for professional development programs that are based on professional standards

Pre-service Teachers Practice-based Training: PSTePT Framework

Frameworks serve as a compass to guide institutions and organizations towards attaining set goals. They establish an order by which principles and other relevant elements connect and interplay. It offers a set of standards and initial processes to ensure that all stakeholders have shared understanding of the system.With DepEd's adoption of the Philippine Professional Standards for Teachers (PPST) as the framework for teacher quality, Teacher Education Institutions (TEIs) are expected to respond by ensuring that the curriculum and training they offer is aligned with what the system needs. To support TEIs, the Pre-service Teachers Practice-based Training (PSTePT) framework is designed to serve as guide in training pre-service teachers to reach the qualifications of the Beginning Teacher career stage as defined in the PPST

A Report on the Drafting and Validation of Classroom Observation Tool - RPMS

The Classroom Observation Tool - Results-based Performance Management System (COT-RPMS) is a subset of the full COT. It is part of the package developed by RCTQ through the assistance of the National Educators Academy of the Philippines (NEAP) for use of DepED teachers. All tools in the RPMS package are aligned with the Developmental National Compet ency-Based Teacher Standards/ Professional Standards for Teachers (D-NCBTS).The COT-RPMS captures the quality of classroom performance and practices of teachers captured through observation. In the proposed RPMS package, the results of classroom observations is a non-negotiable means of verification (MOV) for some objectives in the Key Result Areas (KRAs)

Outcome-based Pre-service Teacher Education Program: Curriculum Quality Audit (CQA) - Research report

This report details the execution of the Outcome-based Pre-service Teacher Education Program: Curriculum Quality Audit project by the Philippine National Research Center for Teacher Quality (RCTQ), in partnership with the Basic Education Sector Transformation (BEST). It offers information on the Curriculum Quality Audit (CQA) process and how it has been implemented in partner institutions around the Philippines

Final Report: Mapping Study of TEIs Serving the BARMM

This document reports the results, findings, and recommendations of the Mapping Study of Teacher Education Institutions (TEIs) Serving the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM) conducted by the Research Center for Teacher Quality-Science, ICT, and Mathematics Education for Regional and Rural Australia (RCTQ-SiMERR). The study, supported by the Australian Government through its Education Pathways to Peace in Mindanao (Pathways) program, aimed to provide broad baseline information on a sample of relevant TEIs including the general context of their teacher education programs

Development of the Results-based Performance Management System aligned with the Professional Standards for Teachers and School Leaders

This project explores the embedding of the Standards-the Philippine Professional Standards for Teachers (PPST), Philippine Professional Standards for School Heads (PPSSH), and the Philippine Professional Standards for Supervisors (PPSS) to the Results-based Performance Management System (RPMS) of the Department of Education (DepEd). In particular, this project explores how the RPMS tools, materials, and overall system of implementation can be linked to the Standards to allow for a more systematic and fair performance assessment.The development of PPST-based RPMS tools for teachers is on its third year in SY 2021-2022. However, due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in the country beginning 2020, the RPMS tools for SY 2020-2021 have been reviewed and reconsidered. In the same year, the national adoption of the PPSSH and the PPSS were signed into policy. This development makes it imperative to align the RPMS of school heads and supervisors with the PPSSH and PPSS, respectively.This report covers the development and validation of three levels of RPMS: (1) RPMS-PPST tools and associated materials for SY 2020-2021 in the time of COVID-19 pandemic, (2) RPMS-PPST tools and associated materials for SY 2021-2022, and (3) RPMS-PPSSH tool for SY 2021-2022 and RPMS-PPSS tool for CY 2021

Supporting Beginning Teachers: A Coaching and Mentoring Module for DepEd Supervisors of Experiential Learning Students

Teachers play a crucial role in improving the quality of the teaching and learning process. They are considered as the most significant part of any educational reform. In support of this role of teachers, DepEd adopted into policy the Philippine Professional Standards for Teachers (PPST) (DO 42, s 2017), which sets clear expectations of teachers along well-defined career stages.The alignment of the new Teacher Education curriculum to PPST has lead to various support work in the TEIs. Beginning teachers are trained in the Teacher Education Institutions (TEIs) and suppported in the DepEd schools.This module supports the development of the Beginning career stage of the PPST by equipping DepEd teachers, who serve as Supervisors for the Beginning Teachers from TEIs, with PPST-based coaching and mentoring program. The module guides DepEd teachers with the basics of coaching and mentoring. It describes the appropriate tools and processes to assess performance, and explains the general system and guidelines aim to render program successful
