According to the recent findings in education reform in the Philippines, this has been characterized by increased standards and higher expectations for teacher performance. Today, teachers in general are being asked to improve their educational practices including methods, pedagogy, content knowledge, and research capability. The success or failure of the students performance is basically dependent on the kind of instruction students receive from their respective teachers (Punongbayan, 2015). The researcher utilized the descriptive correlational method of research. According to Nieswiadomy (2008), a correlational research design is used to describe the statistical association between two or more variables. The interest is examining the teachers research capability, emotional intelligence, and instructional supervision as determinants of teachers performance in Augustinian Higher Educational Institution.A validated semi- structured questionnaire was used as a primary data gathering tool. Documentary analysis was also used extensively in determining the factors influencing teachers performance of Augustinian HEIs. The respondents of the study were the teachers and Heads of Augustinian Schools in the School Year 2018 -2019. This study focused on identifying the determinants of teachers performance in Augustinian higher education institutions (HEIs). Teachers performance were assessed in terms research productivity, emotional intelligence and instructional supervision. Results of the regression revealed that of the three provisions: research productivity, emotional intelligence and instructional supervision contribute a significant effects in the teachers performance.

Significant Difference

Despite the rich empirical evidence linking emotional intelligence (EI) and conflict management skills (CMS) in the international setting, there is a dearth of parallel literature and studies in the Philippines. This descriptive correlational study analyzed the relationship between EI and CMS of middle managers in select higher education institutions (HEIs) in Central Luzon Philippines. A questionnaire was used to gather data from the respondents (N=154). Computation of the frequency distribution, percentage, weighted mean, standard deviation, variance, correlation, multiple regression, analysis of variance (ANOVA) and t-test were utilized to give statistical interpretation of the data. The study revealed that there is no significant difference in the EI of the middle managers in select HEIs when grouped according to classification of institution, sex, civil status, highest educational attainment, number of years in the present position/designation, and religious affiliation. Age is an important factor in developing EI (R=0.1619). EI improves with age, increasing from young adolescence and early adulthood. On the other hand, there is a slight significant correlation between EI and the practice of CMS among the middle managers of select HEIs. At 0.05 level of significance, tcomputed (1.743) is greater than the tcritical (1.658), thus EI is related to CMS. Further study was recommended to explore other indicators and parameters for both areas of EI and CMS in higher education and other sectors to come up with appropriate recommendations and theory-based actions to optimize their effect towards the efficiency and effectiveness of organizations.

The Commission on Higher Education of the Philippines envisions that all Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in the country should develop the culture of research. It has been pushing for a stronger research orientation but still did not boost research productivity. This study aimed to determine the profile of research culture and faculty research productivity of accredited Private Higher Education Institutions of North Cotabato, Philippines. All full-time faculty members (131) who have at least earned units in any master's degree program, and master's and doctorate holders of the four accredited Private Higher Education Institutions were the respondents of this study. Research Directors were the key informants of the interview. Descriptive statistics and multiple regression analysis were employed  It was found out that the research culture building factors explicitly of the individual attributes such as highest educational attainment, and research training, knowledge and skills; and the institutional attributes namely research incentives, research forum and administrative support  significantly influenced the research productivity of the faculty in terms of the magnitude of their roles in institutional research, theses and dissertations, funded research projects, number of researches produced and number of research published in refereed journals. Moreover, the most significant predictor of research productivity of the faculty respondents was researched incentive. As recommended, the different respondent institutions shall formulate an institutional comprehensive plan for research and research development from which they can anchor whatever strategies they would undertake to increase research productivity. Also, it is also recommended that HEIs will develop an attractive and handsome incentive package that can surely motivate the faculty to engage in research endeavors.

Higher education institutions play a fundamental role in the scientific, economic, social, and cultural development of each and every society. In view of new challenges such as the COVID-19 pandemic, the importance of their social responsibility and ability to effectively communicate the socially–responsible activities which are performed is growing. The aim of this article is to analyze and evaluate the scope and structure of socially-responsible activities communicated on the websites of public higher education institutions operating in a small post-communist country where education plays a traditional role—the Czech Republic, and to formulate recommendations for improvement of the level of communication of social responsibility by higher education institutions. Primary data was obtained using latent analysis of the content of the websites of all public higher education institutions operating in the Czech Republic. The CE3SPA method was applied. The survey which was performed shows that the level of communication of social responsibility by higher education institutions in the Czech Republic is low. Activities in the field of economic and social responsibility are communicated in the greatest scope. On the contrary, activities in the field of environmental responsibility are communicated the least. Public higher education institutions in the Czech Republic should therefore apply the measures proposed in the article, these also being transferrable to practice in other countries.

Purpose This study aims to examine the applicability of an extended version of the theory of planned behavior (TPB) in predicting pro-environmental behavior, specifically the purchase behavior (PB) of package-free bath products, among students in higher education institutions (HEIs). Design/methodology/approach Using a non-experimental survey research design, this study empirically tested an extended TPB model through structural equation modeling. The dataset was obtained through a survey of undergraduate students in three HEIs in the Philippines. Findings Environmental knowledge (EK) predicted attitudes toward purchasing package-free bath products. Attitudes, subjective norms and pro-environmental self-identity (PSI) predicted intention to purchase package-free bath products. Furthermore, the intention to purchase package-free bath products and perceived behavioral control predicted PB of the said item. Research limitations/implications The results imply that the addition of EK and PSI to the TPB is applicable in predicting pro-environmental behavior, specifically the purchase of package-free bath products. Practical implications The results showed how HEIs can encourage their students to purchase package-free bath products. Social implications The results highlight how social and economic factors play a role in promoting or inhibiting pro-environmental behavior among HEI students. Originality/value The findings support the inclusion of EK and PSI to the TPB for an integrative model that aims to improve the prediction of the purchase of package-free bath products.

<span>Research Productivity (RP) is the key element in the establishment of ranking and rating system in the Higher Education (HE) sector. Despite of the many initiatives taken to enliven the research culture among academic staff, there are still constraints and resistance towards conducting research. Therefore, this study attempts to identify the factors affecting RP and develop an appropriate model to determine the RP of an academic staff in Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM). In this study, 5 research related indicators were used in the determination of RP. Since the population size of UiTM is large, the primary data was collected by using questionnaire survey and stratified random sampling. The variables that were found to be significant in determining RP of an academic staff were age cohort, highest qualification, cluster and track emphasis. Satisfaction towards annual KPI, UiTM current policy and monthly income were also found to influence the RP of an academic staff. In addition, perceiving the role of principal investigator as a chore and burden and supervising and graduating a PhD student perception as burden and pleasure were also found to be affecting RP. Using these variables, Logistic Regression Model was used to determine the RP of an academic staff in UiTM. In conclusion, personal, environmental and behavioural factors were found to have influence on the RP among academic staff of UiTM. Therefore, generally it is possible to maximize the RP of academic staff by identifying the factors influencing RP followed by strategic management and proper monitoring system.</span>

Teachers in higher education institutions are responsible for acting in accordance with the law and policies to ensure that equity is provided and rights are not violated. This descriptive-correlational study determined the profile and the level of legal literacy on education laws of 322 teachers of State Universities and Colleges (SUCs) in the Eastern Visayas Region of the Philippines.  Moreover, it endeavored to determine the association of legal literacy to the identified profile variables through the use of a researcher-made survey instrument. The analyses of data included both descriptive and inferential statistics like frequencies, means, standard deviation, Eta correlation, Pearson product-moment correlation, and Spearman ranks correlation. Results revealed that teachers have low level of legal literacy and that no significant relationship exists between their legal literacy and age, sex, educational background, teacher certification, length of administrative and teaching experience, and exposure to education law. The study recommends the provision of trainings, grants, scholarships and sufficient access to education law resources for teachers in the higher education institutions.
