Objectives: This study is geared towards the design modification of a costefficient automated egg incubator. Methods: To meet the objectives, the researchers conducted several document analyses relative to the study to establish further the requirements needed to design a microcontroller-based incubator. Interviews with the farmers from the Northern Luzon Philippines also contributed to the design modification's success. The researchers gathered information on temperature, humidity, cost-efficiency, advantages and disadvantages of the existing incubators, and the farmers' feedback before designing. The incubator designed in this study uses modern methods such as the automated controllable device, which maintains humidity & temperature and enables automatic tray switching; The study has also discussed the hatching efficiency and hatching capacity; a financial review between the previous egg incubator and the proposed microcontroller egg incubator has been done. Findings: The study showed that the designed incubator's hatching efficiency ranges from 80-93% and with an average of 86.5% with the number of hatched eggs was 56 (93%) duck eggs and 48 (80%) chicken eggs. It also shows that duck eggs have the most number of hatching compared to chicken eggs. It also showed higher net income for the farmers. Further, the Modified technology is cost-efficient than the manual, which indicates a lower cost per chicken and ducks egg incubation of Php 20.07 and Php 17.2. Novelty/Improvement: The study demonstrated that the microcontrollerbased egg incubator is commendable for small-scale poultry producers.

Objectives:To analyze security awareness among social media users in Tabuk City and the relationship when grouped according to gender, educational attainment, age, and years in social media. Methods/Statistical analysis:The descriptive correlational research method was utilized to accomplish the study's objectives. A total of 385 respondents were selected using a random sampling of Social Media Users of Tabuk City, Kalinga, Philippines. Statistical Packages for Social Sciences (SPSS) software was used in assessing the frequency and computing the collected data's multivariate test, which determines the relationship of the respondent's response. Findings: The study showed a significant relationship between social networking security among users when grouped into gender and educational attainment, while as to age and years in social media, there is no significant relationship. The results revealed that most respondents are vulnerable to threats due to low social networking security awareness. Novelty: Social networking can be a form of data exchange that can be exploited. Therefore, this study highlighted the issues and challenges in the vulnerability of social networking site users.
