This study reported the conference papers presented conducted by the two computing societies in the Philippines. Toward this goal, all published conference proceedings from the National Conference of IT Education and Philippine Computing Society Conference were gathered and analyzed using social network analysis. The findings of the study disclosed that there are 733 papers presented in the conference for the span of 18 years. On the average, both conferences had 27 papers presented annually. Private higher education institutions dominated the list of research productive schools where De La Salle University tops the list. A researcher in the University of the Philippines-Diliman is the most prolific researcher with 39 publications and “algorithm” was the most researched topic. Researchers tend to work in small team consisting of 2 to 3 members. Implications and limitations of the study are also presented.

This quantitative study analyzed the perceptions of students on teaching effectiveness in private higher education institutions in Botswana. An exploratory and descriptive survey research design was adopted in this study. A valid and reliable questionnaire was used to collect data through a survey of 560 stratified randomly sampled students in private higher education institutions in Botswana. A One sample t-test and an Independent t-test were used for data analysis. A significant high level of teaching effectiveness was determined. Several items measuring teaching effectiveness contributed significantly negative to teaching effectiveness and therefore, it was recommended that lecturers should use strategies to improve on those areas of teaching to enhance their teaching. No difference in teaching effectiveness was determined with respect to age, gender and nationality of the students. However, there was a significant difference in the students’ perceptions on teaching effectiveness between the university and the non- university institutions and, lecturers were found to be more effective in their teaching at the universities as compared to the lecturers in the non -university institutions. Therefore, a further study exploring the factors contributing to such differences is recommended to improve the quality of teaching in the non- university type of private higher education institutions in Botswana.

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.
