The study design was the Mixed Method Research type with a population consisting of 70 teachers, 1010 students, their parents and internet café operators in the Metropolis. A sample size of 300 was determined for the study comprising 200 students, 50 teachers and 45 parents randomly selected, while five internet café operators in the Metropolis were purposively chosen.

Aims: The study generally assessed the Technical Vocational Education Program of Davao del Sur School of Fisheries. Study Design: Quantitative-descriptive correlation. Place and Duration of Study: The study was conducted at the Davao del Sur School of Fisheries in Davao del Sur, The Philippines. The study was conducted for 10 months. Methodology: This study used the universal sampling for both sets of respondents; the teachers of TVE program and the Grade 10 students. There were 32 teachers and 322 students participated in the study. The Technical Vocational Education program was assessed in terms of library facilities and internet connectivity, Science laboratory facilities, TVE laboratory facilities and the use of information and communication technology. These were correlated to the academic performances of the students. Results: The findings of the study showed that in terms of population, 322 students were enrolled in the TVE program; majority of these students took the food processing technology course that comprised 39.45%. In terms of teachers’ qualification, 32 were Bachelor of Art or Bachelor of Secondary Education graduates. There were 18 out of 32 teachers who were teaching in TVE programs and the rest taught in other related courses. For qualification to teach in the Program, one- third of the total faculty was handling fish culture, while two third was teaching outside the flagship courses. In the assessment of the support learning facilities, the library, internet connectivity, science and laboratory facilities were described as “moderately adequate”; the TVE laboratory facilities was described as “very adequate”. In the assessment of the ICT in instruction, it was described as “very effective”. The study found significant relationship between the academic performance of the TVE students and the support learning facilities and between the academic performance of the TVE students and the used of information and communication technology (ICT) in learning. Conclusion: The school needs to maintain its support learning facilities and information and communication technology so that it can produce more competent TVE students. However, the school may look into industry partners so that actual application of students’ theoretical knowledge may be put into action. Moreover, tracer study may also be conducted to find the competitiveness and employability of the graduates.

<p align="justify"><span class="fontstyle0">The pedagogical strategy most used today to arouse students’ interest in classes is the use of technological resources. Portuguese language teaching has also adopted it. For this reason, this qualitative research aims to verify whether the insertion of Information and Communication Technology in the Portuguese language discipline influences students’ learning. Meetings were held, in a pedagogical environment, with students from two high school classes at the IFPB, Campus Campina Grande, in the academic year of 2019. Pedagogical activities were carried out, with and without the use of technological resources, which included the contents of reading and interpretation of chronicles, as well as the production of micro fictions. The main result obtained indicated that the use of technological resources can influence the pedagogical process, as well as the academic performance of students, in a positive way. In addition to that, students were more attentive and participated more actively in class. There was also an improvement in the student-student ratio due to the activities proposed. </span></p>
