This study will explore an innovative approach to cybersecurity workforce development in low income, minority, and Native American reservation communities in a way that could address low living wages and high unemployment while meeting cyber workforce demands. In the efforts to build a robust talent pipeline, there is a critical need for innovative practices to educate the future cyber professions in underserved diverse communities. Systemically, diverse communities have been untapped, ignored, and undervalued for technical job opportunities. This study looks at using charter schools with minority demographics that should have advanced technology programs that address a colossal workforce development need in the U.S. by training future cyber professionals on the high school level.

Objective. A number of studies worldwide have shown that health literacy is vital in the improvement of health status of individuals as well as in the effective implementation of health programs. In the Philippines, however, data regarding the level of health literacy among Filipino adults are yet to be gathered. This study then aimed to describe the health literacy level and to determine the correlates of health literacy among Filipino adults aged 50 to 70 years old belonging to the lower socioeconomic class in a selected community. Methods. An analytical cross-sectional study was conducted, utilizing data from the study of Briones, M. et. al in 2015, among selected Filipino adults in a barangay in Pasig City. Results. Ninety-four percent of the study participants had problematic/inadequate health literacy level. The factors found to be statistically associated with having problematic / inadequate health literacy were having at most high school level education, and not being able to visit a medical doctor in the past 12 months. Nonetheless, being self-employed made an individual less likely to have a problematic/inadequate health literacy. Conclusions. There was a high proportion of individuals who had problematic/inadequate health literacy among 50 to 70 years old in the study area. Socio-economic characteristics such as educational attainment and healthcare access were shown to be associated with an individual’s level of health literacy. Despite the extensive health information available to the public, the level of health literacy still remained to be poor. This indicates that there is a need to evaluate if said information are easily accessed, understood, appraised and applied by individuals to make sound health decisions.

Research has shown that parental involvement in the educational experiences of their children increases student achievement and strengthens school programs. The majority of this research, however, has concentrated on the primary and elementary levels, with little being known about parental involvement at the middle and high school levels. This study sought to add to the literature related to parental involvement at the high school level by examining the experienced meaning of parental involvement from the perspective of high school parents. Specifically, parents of tenth-graders attending a low-income urban high school located in the southwestern United States with an ethnically diverse population were interviewed. These parents varied with regard to their economic status, cultural background, educational background, and personal beliefs. The interview sessions were semi-structured and included open-ended questions. All interview data were transcribed, coded, and analyzed according to Kvale's (1996) and Creswell's (2007) processes for analyzing data. Results indicate that these parents experienced difficulties in participating at their child’s school but often reaped benefits from their participation. While parental descriptions of their experiences of involvement were complex, multi-layered, and reflected the individuality of each participant, four major themes emerged from their stories: (1) technology and parental involvement; (2) economy and parental work schedules; (3) potential for parental growth; and (4) parental involvement outside the school. The implications of each of these themes is discussed in the context of providing suggestions to better utilize the benefits parental involvement can bring to the education provided at the high school level. To this end several suggestions are made regarding programs, practices, and services that could be implemented based on the educational and social needs of parents.  Keywords: High School, Parent, Parental involvement, Parents’ Perspective, Technology

This study used interviews with 150 online informal workers in Jakarta. 80% of the respondents we interviewed were high school graduates and 20% did not have a high school diploma. Based on the results of interviews, 70% of respondents who had high school certificates had worked in the formal sector and chose to work in the informal sector and respondents who did not have high school certificates had never worked in the formal sector. To anticipate the interview results, we collected secondary data from world banks and the Indonesian Central Bureau of Statistics regarding data on unemployment in Indonesia, high school graduation and high school labor demand. Then we process all data in the form of an employment opportunity index which is calculated based on the supply and demand for labor where the supply of labor is the number of unemployed and graduated high school and the demand for labor in the demand for labor is high. school level. The income index is obtained from interviews with 150 informal workers by taking into account income while working in the formal sector, income in the informal sector and investment in education in the form of education from primary to final education. The human capital index is obtained from the difference in income and forecasting the difference in income of respondents who have a high school diploma and those who do not have a high school diploma. We use average data or all the data obtained is averaged based on a group of variables determined based on literature review and background and time series, then the regression is carried out using the moving average autoregression method. We find that human capital and job opportunities have positive relationship with income.

INTRODUCTION OF TECHNOLOGY IN SUPPORT FARMING OF DUCK IN PASLATEN VILLAGE DISTRICT OF KAKAS REGENCY OF MINAHASA.The purpose of raising ducks by members of the Kinakas Jaya group was to produce eggs and meat. The eggs produced were around 60-70 percent of the total number of duck members owned by group members. The low production and productivity of ducks causes low income received by group members and not continuous whereas the demand for duck products has increased from year to year. Duck farming in North Sulawesi has a very large development prospect in terms of the population that tends to increase every year. The problem with raising ducks by group members was still traditional and the availability of DOD was not continuous. Based on these problems, empowerment of group members was carried out, namely extension and introduction of hatching machines. The research was conducted with the aim to find out the extent of empowerment activities in supporting duck business in Paslaten Village, Kakas District. The research method used was a survey method. The sample location was Paslaten Village, which was determined by purposive sampling (a village with a group of duck farmers). Respondents were members of the Kinakas Jaya group who were empowered through the introduction of technology. The age of the respondents ranged from 42-50 years with junior high school level (37.5%) and high school 62.5%. Extension was done and responded well by group members. Furthermore, the process of hatching eggs was carried out by group members. Based on the results of the study it can be concluded that the technology was successfully adopted by group members, but the success rate of hatching eggs was still low. Suggestions submitted need to increase the frequency of counseling and application of technology
