The constant changed in technology and the new innovations was undoubtedly contributed largely to education. Mixed Reality (MR), one of the newest technologies and a very promising tool that allows merging of physical reality and virtual environment to enhance teaching and learning process for better and engaging learning experiences. The researchers proposed a “Mixed Reality Application of Solar System” as an assistive tool by the teachers in teaching of the lessons faster through visualizing 3D models of planets in the solar system. In this paper, the researchers made use of descriptive-qualitative technique and a survey in gathering data. The study has undergone testing and evaluation with the help of five (5) IT experts as alpha testers and twenty (20) STEP students of Subic National High School as beta testers using the ISO 9126-1 software quality standards criteria. Alpha tests overall rated mean of 4.53, interpreted as “Excellent” on Functionality, 4.13 “Very Good” on Usability, 4.00 “Very Good” on Efficiency and 4.40 “Excellent” on Portability while beta tests overall rated mean of 4.78 “Excellent” on Functionality, 4.66 „Excellent” on Usability, 4.60 “Excellent” on Efficiency and 4.80 “Excellent” on Portability. Respondents were satisfied on the performance of the mixed reality application as manifested on the results of the survey, 4.15 “Very Good” on users‟ acceptance and 4.50 “Excellent: on experts‟ acceptance. Based on the data gathered from the respondents, the researchers recommended the use of the developed mixed reality application in teaching science. Respondents recommendations were mainly focused on the improvement of the graphics and user interface through adjustment of interactive buttons in the application. The researchers recommended for the future enhancement of the application to the future researchers the capability of the mixed reality application to be available in iOS and personal computers

This study determined the employment status of IT Education Graduates of PRMSU Castillejos Zambales from 2015-2020 specifically the BS Computer Science Graduates. The study also assessed the relevance of the present job of the graduaterespondents and the reasons of their unemployment. The finding of the research study will serve as basis for further study that will determine the problems encountered by the graduates in finding job, faculty performance and update or enhance the BSCS curricula to meet the demand of the industry in response to Industrial Revolution 4.0 mandate. The researchers administered a survey to the respondents to gather necessary data on their employment and job placement. There were 60 percent of the graduaterespondents who were presently employed as rank and file or clerical level; majority have professional, technical and supervisory position job which is relevant to the graduate outcomes. The survey revealed that 60 percent of the respondents’ reason for unemployment was family concern and decided not to find a job. Based on the data gathered from the respondents, the BSCS graduates were employed majority related to their course and the necessary theoretical and technical skills they gained in school helped them to find job. It is strongly recommended that further study should be done in the future to further enhance the study
