Journal Title: Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal - Year 2024, Vol 24, Issue 4
Abstract
The main objective of this study was to determine the competency level among MAPEH teachers teaching Music to grade six learners of selected public school of Loreto North District. It utilized the descriptive causal correlational and comparative research design and applied the following statistical tools: mean Pearson – r, independent T-test and Anova. This investigation used a research-made survey questionnaire and summative assessment tool. Universal sampling technique was used to 20 MAPEH teachers and their respective music learners in Grade 6 from selected public elementary schools of Loreto North District. The study's result revealed that most teachers teaching Music to grade six learners ages 39 years and below. Female teachers dominate in the field of teaching. Most of them have less than 9 months of teaching experience. In addition, most teachers teaching music in grade six have less than 19 hours of training/seminar experience. Furthermore, the level of academic performance of grade six learners in music in terms of test scores is fairly satisfactory. Survey revealed that there is a significant relationship between the level of pedagogical competency of MAPEH teachers, the length of teaching experience, and the number of training or seminars attended to the academic performance of Grade six learners. However, there is no significant difference in the level of pedagogy of MAPEH teachers when grouped according to age and sex. As a recommendation, teachers must motivate themselves to grow professionally and develop a sense of responsibility in their competency. Ultimately, teachers must study the curriculum competency-based in Music education and acquire better self-study and learning skills to further develop a sense of responsibility in accomplishing the task provided in the MELC. In the same manner, teachers must engage in providing alternative instructional designs that use developed instructional materials that are based on the needs of the pupils. Most importantly, school heads must provide full support to teachers, especially in conducting seminars or training workshops to enhance the skills of their teachers and purchase in some way musical instruments for teachers and learners to manipulate in the classroom.
