Abstract (English)

The purpose of this multiple case study is to provide an in-depth analysis of the experiences of the case units under study as regards challenges, triumphs and impacts and participants' views in implementing the RVM Quality Road Map towards the development of an enhanced framework in the implementation of internal quality assurance in RVM schools in the Philippines, intended for their school management and curriculum audit. The research participants or case units were the selected five RVM Schools in the Philippines. Case Units 1, 2, and 3 were from the fully implementing schools, Case Unit 4 was from the partially implementing schools, and Case Unit 5 was from the non-implementing schools. There were 6-7 participants from each case: the school head, two middle administrators, two faculty and one non-teaching staff, and another personnel as validators. The school heads were invited separately for the in-depth interview (IDI), and the four to five participants per case unit were invited separately for the focus group discussion (FGD). The gathered data were validated in each case by interviewing former employees in the schools during the implementation of the RVM QRM. The data gathered from the interview were subjected to thematic analysis, resulting in themes across cases: six under challenges, seven for triumphs and impacts, and eight for participants' views. A cross-case analysis of the themes revealed certain shared issues and unique results in several organizational domains. It highlighted how intricate organizational dynamics are and how crucial it is to have customized strategies considering particular settings.
