Alternative Delivery Mode (ADM) of instruction had become an option of schools, parents, and learners to access education. Despite its implementation for several years, research on its delivery and students’ academic performance was not endeavored. Hence, this study was conducted to determine the relationship of Alternative Delivery Mode (ADM) program and performance of the students. The respondents of the study were 30 students from nine elementary schools in the Division of Digos, Davao del Sur. Results showed that most of the respondents enrolled in the Alternative Delivery Mode (ADM) were male, at age 11, and were laborers. Most of them were low performers. The respondents rated the Alternative Delivery Mode (ADM) implementation as moderate. It further revealed that there was no significant difference in the level of implementation of Alternative Delivery Mode in terms of gender and age but it showed significant relationship between the level of implementation of the program and the performance of the students. Intensification of Alternative Delivery Mode (ADM) was recommended. <p> </p><p><strong> Article visualizations:</strong></p><p><img src="/-counters-/edu_01/0720/a.php" alt="Hit counter" /></p>

Purpose–The main focus of the study is to develop an asynchronous framework ready for online classes of Makati Public Elementary Schools with Academic Performance Report to help users identify students at academic risk and adjust educational strategies to meet student's academic needs.CLASSALI is equipped with five major features namely: (1) Virtual Classroom, (2) Online Quiz, (3) Grading System, (4) CLASSALI Forum, and (5) Data Analytics Reports.Method–Researchers conduct an online assessment that has been tested by fifteen IT Practitioners and fifteen Non-IT Participants including admin, teachers, students, and parents. The data collected during the evaluation were computed for the analysis and efficiency of the system. Results–The system gathered reviews mostly with “Excellent” remarks.Conclusion–The system was found relevant nowadays since a new normal setting (i.e., pure online classes) due to the COVID-19 pandemic.Recommendations–In the future analysis, some research points should be given moreattention. First and foremost, the developed learning management systemshould be implemented in other schoolsin the Philippines.In the future to further examine the stability and generalization of the developed learning management system.

Background. Aggressive behaviors must be addressed in elementary schools. Massage and storytelling can be strategies to deal with aggression because both involve experience exchange and social interaction. Both can decrease stress and anxiety and increase self-esteem. Objective. To evaluate the effect of two interventions (massage and storytelling) on aggressive behaviors and academic performance of elementary school children. Method. Three groups (n=35 children in each group) of the second grade participated (aged 6.5–8.1 years). One group received ten extra classes of massage (MG), another group received extra classes of storytelling (SG), and the control group received extra classes of random subjects (CG). Extra classes lasted for 50 minutes, once a week. Aggressive behaviors were recorded on diaries, by the teachers and the coordinator. The frequency of aggressive behaviors and the academic performance of MG, SG, and CG were observed for six months and the groups were compared. Findings. ANOVAs evidenced that MG and SG, but not CG, showed a reduction in aggressive behaviors registered by the teachers and coordinator, after the intervention. Academic performance of MG and SC improved after the intervention (p<0.05).
