Perceived Roles and Challenges of Guidance Designates in the Implementation of Homeroom Guidance

Abstract

This study purposively investigated the perception of Guidance Designates on their primary role in the implementation of Homeroom Guidance in their respective school. The respondents of the study were Elementary Guidance Designates within Schools Division Office I Pangasinan identified through the snowball sampling technique. The responses of were gathered through an interview that delved into the perceived roles, challenges encountered, and coping mechanisms of Guidance Designates in terms of academic, personal-social, and career development domains of Homeroom Guidance. The researcher made use of the qualitative research method (allows researcher to examine people’s experiences in detail, by using a set of research methods, like interviews, focus group discussions, observation, content analysis, visual methods, life histories, and biographies, Torunoğlu & Gençtanırım, 2015). For this study, the data were collected via interview. Interview is a good way to get a description of another’s perspective on events (Maxwell, 2013). The study revealed that Guidance Designate served as program manager, catering to the needs of teachers for possible technical assistance, conducting orientations, quarterly meetings with teachers, and validating the content and pedagogy of the Homeroom Guidance modules distributed. He/She may be handpicked by School Heads but must undergo proper orientation to ensure the proper implementation of Homeroom Guidance. Lack of awareness hinders the full implementation of every program, increasing awareness of teachers about Homeroom Guidance opens the way for acceptance and continuity of implementation. Work tenure results in familiarity with the job role and the ability to perform better on task. Homeroom Guidance proved to be more effective in developing learners’ academic, personal-social and career development. Correct time management/scheduling of classes lessens problems with teachers’ inadequacy to implement Homeroom Guidance. Self-awareness helps managers find situations in which they’ll be most effective, assists with intuitive decision making, aids stress management and motivation of oneself and others.
