This study focused on the encountered difficulties and coping mechanisms of adult elementary learners in the Alternative Learning System (ALS) in the Lapu-Lapu City Division, highlighting their educational experiences and challenges in continuing their studies. The study aimed to determine the difficulties encountered by adult elementary learners and identify the coping mechanisms they used to overcome these challenges while studying in ALS. A qualitative research design utilizing thematic content analysis was employed through semi-structured interviews with selected adult elementary learners in ALS. The findings revealed that the participants experienced financial difficulties, limited learning resources, and conflicts between personal responsibilities and academic tasks that affected their learning process. Despite these difficulties, the learners demonstrated resilience through effective time management, self-motivation, family support, and positive attitudes toward education, which enabled them to continue pursuing their studies. The study concluded that ALS serves as an important educational opportunity for adult learners by providing flexible learning experiences that support their educational goals despite existing challenges. It is recommended that ALS implementers strengthen academic support, provide sufficient learning materials, and develop programs that address the personal and educational needs of adult learners.

This study described the literacy barriers to effective tutoring from the perspectives of ARAL tutors in selected elementary schools in Cordova, Cebu, during the school year 2025–2026, focusing on the challenges encountered in delivering literacy instruction under the ARAL Program. This study employed a descriptive-survey research design using a mixed-method approach, involving a total enumeration of 70 ARAL tutors from San Miguel Elementary School, Pilipog Elementary School, Cogon Elementary School, and Ibabao Elementary School, with data gathered through a validated questionnaire consisting of structured survey items and open-ended questions and analyzed using means, standard deviations, and thematic analysis. The results revealed that the major literacy barriers were poor reading comprehension, limited instructional materials, and insufficient tutoring time, which were consistently experienced by tutors across the selected schools, while additional findings highlighted challenges such as learner absenteeism, lack of interest, and multi-grade level tutoring that further affected instructional effectiveness. Overall, the study showed that these barriers significantly hindered the smooth implementation and effectiveness of the ARAL Program in improving learners’ literacy skills. It concluded that despite the program’s strong objectives, its effectiveness is limited by resource and instructional constraints faced by tutors. It is therefore recommended that the Department of Education and school stakeholders strengthen instructional support, provide adequate learning materials, enhance tutor training, and promote collaborative efforts among teachers, parents, and the community to improve the overall implementation of the ARAL Program.

Nicole Angelic T. Dungog¹ , Sharmaine Eguna² , Aira Cristine Arlalijo³ , Hannah Jean Bongo⁴ & Elysza Kate Cacho⁵ Cordova Public College Gabi, Cordova, Cebu, Philippines Dungognicole11@gmail.com This study evaluated the literacy skills, livelihood skills, usefulness, and relevance of the Skills Development Learning Materials used in the Alternative Learning System (ALS) program at the Rotary Club of Mactan Community Learning Center (CLC). Utilizing a descriptive-evaluative research design, the study examined the current learning materials used by ALS learners to determine its level of skills development and to know the perception of learners towards the usefulness and relevance of these learning materials. Data were gathered from ALS learners using a weighted mean and standard deviation (SD) analysis to profile their perceptions and actual skill attainment. The findings revealed that the learning materials yielded an overall average mean of 2.72 (SD = 0.99) for Literacy Skills , which is interpreted as Upper Intermediate . Similarly, Livelihood Skills recorded an overall mean of 2.66 (SD = 0.96) , also falling within the Upper Intermediate range. Regarding the learners' perceptions, the materials garnered an overall mean of 2.82 (SD = 0.92) for Usefulness and 2.74 (SD = 0.93) for Relevance , both interpreted as Effective . The results suggest that while the learning materials successfully facilitates a transition toward complex knowledge application, the variance indicated by the standard deviations highlights a need for more localized and differentiated support. These findings underscore the importance of aligning learning resources with the specific vocational and contextual needs of ALS learners to ensure sustained engagement and higher levels of skill mastery.

The interactive instructional materials or resources are the instruments that educators can use to deliver lessons and assist learners in achieving their academic goals. Both educators and learners can use these resources to improve their comprehension of a particular topic. This research assessed the interactive learning materials in teaching demonstrative pronouns: An assessment in grade two learners during the academic year 2024-2025 at Agus Elementary school. This study applied a quasi-experimental method with 30 participants, using the statistical tool which are mean, standard deviation, and paired t-test. The study showed that the level of understanding of the learners about demonstrative pronouns before are poor in terms of the usage of demonstrative pronouns while after integrating interactive learning materials, the level of understanding of the learners has improved. Therefore, the learning materials was effective. It is recommended that enhancement of the interactive learning materials should apply.

ChatGPT, an advanced AI language model developed by OpenAI that can understand and generate human-like text, was used in education, helping teachers with lesson planning, supporting school administrators with tasks, and improving learning for students. It also examined the challenges, such as ethical concerns, AI mistakes, and the need for careful use. A qualitative research method was used, with interviews with school administrators and teachers, to understand how ChatGPT was helping in schools. The findings showed that ChatGPT was useful for making lesson plans, creating learning materials, and helping with administrative work like scheduling and reports. However, some concerns were raised about relying too much on AI, possible errors in its responses, and issues with data privacy and fairness. To make the most of ChatGPT while avoiding problems, schools should provide training on AI use, create clear rules for its ethical use, and encourage teachers to check AI-generated content carefully while using it as a helpful tool rather than a replacement for teaching skills.
