B. Title: Teacher’s Perspective on upward evaluation in basic education department in Metro Manila
Name: Heiden C. Anorico
Adviser: Amelita A. Gaerlan, Ph. D.

ABSTRACT

Evaluation is essential in assessing different areas of performance especially in educational institutions.


Conversely, upward evaluation is emerging in the Philippine education institutions. However, issues concerning upward
evaluations hinder its regular implementation. This study aims to ascertain the impact between and among instructional
supervisory behavior, teacher’s trust to instructional leaders, teacher’s emotional exhaustion, need to evaluate and
teacher’s desire to have an upward evaluation as well as find out teacher’s viewpoint of a bottom-up design of
evaluation. The study was conducted in private schools in the basic education department from metro Manila with 278
respondents. A multi-aspect researcher made survey questionnaires to measure relationship between variables. Data
was analyzed using descriptive statistics through SPSS version 21. Structural equation modeling and path analysis were
also conducted through WarpPLS version 3.0 to examine simultaneous relationship and direct among latent variables at
0.05 level of significance.

This study ascertained the impact of instructional supervisory behavior, teacher’s emotional exhaustion,
teacher’s trust to the need and teacher’s desire to have an upward evaluation. Results of empirical study reveal
evidences that instructional supervisory behavior influences teacher’s trust to instructional leader, need to evaluate and
teacher’s desire to have an upward evaluation with a small to large effects. The study also shows that teacher’s attitude
towards upward evaluation has a medium effect and positively influence the need to evaluate. The need to evaluate
indicates a large effect and influences the variable want to have an upward evaluation. The need to evaluate plays an
important role in correlation of variables influencing the want to have an upward evaluation.

Empirical results of this study provide implication to implementation of evaluation schemes in educational
institutions. Implications and contributions of the paper to implementation of upward evaluation schemes are also
discussed in this paper.

Heiden C. Anorico's study employs descriptive statistics, structural equation modeling, and path analysis to provide insights into relationships between latent variables. These techniques allow for complex multivariate analysis, revealing how constructs like supervisory behavior, trust, emotional exhaustion, and the need for evaluation interconnect. By statistically examining these relationships, researchers can identify significant predictors and mediators within educational contexts, offering data-driven recommendations for policy and practice enhancements .

In Andrea G. Gatchalian's study, parental involvement serves as a predictor variable by directly influencing pupils' academic performance, socialization, and coping behavior. Through simple linear regression analysis, the study demonstrates how active parental participation in education settings leads to enhanced academic outcomes and better social and coping skills. The involvement of parents in educational activities creates a supportive environment contributing to the holistic development of pupils .

The main challenges identified in conducting research on a specific topic include the difficulty of seeking further information and barriers encountered in the process. These challenges impact the research process by potentially limiting access to relevant data and resources, hindering the depth and breadth of the research. Realistic recognition of these challenges allows for better preparation and discussion, enabling researchers to anticipate and mitigate potential obstacles .

The involvement of community-based organizations enhances the sustainability of projects for sponsored children by fostering collaboration and resource sharing. These organizations can contribute local knowledge, additional funding, and logistical support, thereby complementing the efforts of primary sponsors like Pearl S. Buck. By partnering with community organizations, projects are more likely to adapt and thrive within local contexts, ensuring that support mechanisms remain effective and culturally appropriate .

The need to evaluate is essential in influencing teachers' desire for upward evaluation because it directly affects their motivation and engagement with the evaluation process. It plays a crucial role in correlating the variables that lead to the willingness to participate in upward evaluations, as evidenced by its large effect size in Heiden C. Anorico's study. Acknowledging the importance of this need helps in designing evaluation schemes that resonate with teachers' professional goals and organizational trust .

Implementing a livelihood program for parents is expected to have multiple positive outcomes: it enhances the economic stability of families, thereby improving the quality of life for sponsored children. This stability can lead to increased parental involvement and investment in their children's education, fostering better academic achievements. Additionally, such programs can strengthen community ties and ensure the sustainability of educational support initiatives by reducing dependency and facilitating self-reliance .

Teachers' emotions and attitudes play a crucial role in shaping the effectiveness of upward evaluations. Positive attitudes towards evaluation processes, as facilitated by trust in instructional leaders and reduced emotional exhaustion, encourage constructive feedback and participation in evaluations. These attitudes determine the willingness of teachers to engage with evaluation practices, thus directly influencing their outcomes and potential for institutional improvements. Small to medium effect sizes in the study indicate that addressing these emotional factors can significantly enhance the efficacy of upward evaluations .

Structural equation modeling and path analysis in Heiden C. Anorico's study are significant as they allow for examining simultaneous relationships and direct effects among latent variables. These methods provide a comprehensive understanding of how instructional supervisory behavior, teacher trust, emotional exhaustion, and the need for upward evaluation interrelate. The implications for educational institution evaluation schemes include insights into the effects of teacher attitudes on the desire for upward evaluation, thereby informing the design and implementation of effective evaluation policies .

Amelita A. Gaerlan's study exemplifies the use of qualitative research methods through its phenomenological approach to understanding the experiences of sponsored children with Pearl S. Buck. It employs in-depth structured interviews and personal meaning mapping as data collection techniques, focusing on themes such as expectations, experiences, and lessons learned to frame the discussion .

In Heiden C. Anorico's study, the classification as a quantitative, descriptive study targeting the evaluation design of educational institutions impacts its methodology by necessitating the use of structured surveys and statistical analysis. The intended use, to inform and improve evaluation schemes, directs the research towards empirical measurements of relationships between key variables such as teacher behavior and attitudes. This focus requires methodological rigor and the use of software like SPSS and WarpPLS for data analysis, ensuring that findings are actionable and relevant for policy implementation .
