Abstract/Summary

This study proposes a three-year development program for religion teachers in the secondary level among the three schools of the Daughters of Charity in the Bicol Region. The development program is based on needs assessment of religion teachers as perceived by the religion coordinators, religion teachers, and students. The study employed the descriptive method of research using the human resource developmental model. Results of the three-part questionnaire on Needs Assessment for Religion Teachers were used to identify their needs. Part I which is on Content-Knowledge and Religious Attitudes were adapted from the National Cathechetical Directory for the Philippines (1983). Part II is on the Teaching Skills of Religion Teachers and was adapted from the Teacher Behavior Inventory (TBI) designed by Kendel Tang, PhD of De La Salle University (1974). Part III of the questionnaire which is on the Social, Spiritual and Economic Needs of Religion Teachers was adapted from Sr. Luz Roma, DC of the University of San Carlos (1983). The respondents of the study were 3 religion coordinators, 4 religion teachers, and 120 students in the secondary level. The schools included in this study were Colegio de la Milagrosa, of Sorsogon, Sorsogon St. Anthony Academy of Gubat, Sorsogon and Colegio de la Immaculada Concepcion of Bulan, Sorsogon.

Based on the findings of the study, the researcher drew up the following conclusions: 1. Development of competencies in the creed, code and cult dimensions is perceived by religion teachers as felt needs because they are not achieved by them. 2. The social, spiritual and economic development of religion teachers are perceived by them as felt needs inasmuch as the respondents consider them significant or important. 3. Development of competencies in teaching skills is not perceived by the religion teachers, religion coordinators and students as felt needs inasmuch as they are already possessed by the respondents. 4. The proposed three-year development program for religion teachers in the secondary level among the three schools of the Daugthers of Charity in the Bicol Region is a response to the felt needs of religion teachers to develop themselves putting emphasis on content, spiritual, social and economic needs.
