Abstract/Summary

This study assesses the teachers' competencies of Saint Paul College in Dumaguete City and proposes a one year faculty development program based on the survey. In this study, the descriptive method of research was utilized. It involved the gathering of information to find out to what extent skills were demonstrated by the teachers. The instrument used for this study was an evaluation questionnaire based on the Teacher Behavior Inventory validated by Tang (1973). It was also based on the La Salle Greenhills' evaluation questionnaire designed by the Center for Educational Research. The respondents of the study were four administrators, forty-six teachers, one hundred thirty-nine high school students and three hundred fifty college students. To establish the profile of the teachers, the frequencies along the variables were determined and the corresponding percentages were computed. The t-test for independent samples was used to find out the significance of the differences in the self-perceived competencies of teachers and the perceptions of their supervisors. It was also used to find out the significance of the differences between the high school and college students' perceptions of their teachers' competencies. Based on the findings of the study, evidence showed that in all the four departments under study (grade school, high school, Ab-Ed and Commerce), the supervisors perceived the teachers not competent on conceptual skill. In addition, the AB-Ed and Commerce supervisors like wise perceived their teachers not so competent on human skill.

As a whole, the teachers in the four departments excelled in technical skills as perceived by the teachers themselves, their immediate supervisors and their students. The study also found that all the teachers in the four departments perceived themselves higher than their supervisors in the three skills: human, technical and conceptual, with the exception of high school teachers who rated themselves lower on technical skills compared with their supervisors' ratings. All students in high school, AB-Ed and Commerce rated their teachers from competent to almost very competent in human and technical skills.
