  The study determined the state of ICT integration and the level of its implementation in the school learning system of the Department of Education (DepEd) in Junior High Schools in The Division of General Santos City during the school year 2019-2020. It utilized convergent parallel mixed method. Findings show ICT teachers taking big roles in the implementation of the program where learners were encouraged to participate in class. They maximize the teaching-learning process despite a gap on the facility maintenance and upgrading software and internet connection as hindering factors in delivering better educational services. While there were computers provided, not all learners were able to use or access them. While ICT teachers were guided by the curriculum guide with the competencies required as their legal framework, they have not established standardized modules. They only relied on the available resources in the internet. A concrete systematic approach in terms of maximizing resources, training and professional development and research was not applied. While the administration was supportive, budget allocation for the program cannot totally suffice the needs in the teaching-learning process and in the school learning system as a whole. Stakeholders’ involvement in ICT integration was evident, but there is less impact to the program as they were tapped only if needed. An organized and sustained support specifically on monitoring and evaluation of the ICT program is needed. Generally, the absence of sufficient budget and clearly identified ICT infrastructure are the major flaws of the system. The system is run through the initiatives and ingenuity of the teachers, rather than a clearly defined and implemented system. While there are positive feelings regarding the contribution of ICT to the teaching-learning environment, many teachers expressed the need for a more comprehensive intervention on ICT development.

Then, t-test was used to compare the results of tests through employing Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software application. The result shows that there is a significant difference between the pre-test and post test scores of the Decoding Skill and Sentence Reading Skill as evidenced by the calculated t-value and p-value. Therefore, Project PFRATH is found to be effective in improving the reading performance of the Grade One pupils. Based on the findings, the researchers made the following recommendations. The school may adopt the Project PFRATH to intensify its Reading Program. Teachers from other grade levels may utilize the Project PFRATH as reading intervention to help pupils improve their reading skill. For future researchers, a similar study on Project PFRATH may be conducted in DepEd Schools.

The training of special educators leads to the understanding and interaction with the social, family and school contexts of the subjects who learn. Special education has the challenge of working with students whose biological, cognitive or social conditions do not allow them to functionally develop themselves in a regular school, so its main objective is the development of autonomy and the transition process. In this sense, the application of life stories becomes a fundamental pedagogical tool in the acquisition of knowledge, skills and attitudes towards a professional career. This research is presented in the context of the training of special educators at the Universidad Laica Eloy Alfaro de Manabí. Starting from the naturalistic paradigm with a qualitative approach, the representations of future professionals about the application of life stories in the training process are examined. An ad-hoc questionnaire was developed based on the dimensions: (1) personal, organized by the categories of (a) assessment of experiences and (b) personal conflicts; (2) professional, divided into (a) professional identity and (b) ethics; and (3) community, broken down into (a) interculturality and (b) inclusion. Eleven (11) students of the special education career participated, who have elaborated life stories in cases of intellectual, physical, auditory disability and cerebral palsy in the past. In the personal dimension, positive conceptions about the experience were found, related to feelings of appropriation of the case, institutional support, construction of friendship ties. Motivation towards and understanding of the role of the special educator, learning the implications of ethics in educational research, the importance of continuous training and the improvement of social skills were found in the professional dimension. In the community dimension, representations lead to learning about the individual-family-community relationship, as well as the barriers that hinder inclusion in these contexts. It is concluded that life stories have a positive impact on the profile of the special educator. The exercise of internalization and systematization of the experiences has a high potential in the training processes, allowing to reduce the gaps between research, research practice and teacher training processes.
