“…A great interest of local scholars like of Nuqui and Cruz (2012), Dumbrique and Alon (2013), Revilla and Ladisla (2014), Dangan (2014), Quimbo and Sulambo (2014), Marcial (2015), Tagaro (2015) and Etcuban and associates (2016) was poured in recently on this area of research but these were also confined in the tertiary level. Three studies in the basic education by Valdez and Lapinid (2015), Ulla, Barrera, and Acompanado (2017), and Ulla (2018) were conducted by considering the narratives of small subsets of teachers interpreted from the qualitative lens. Their findings revealed that action researches (ARs) helped the teachers in their professional tasks but they had cited multiple dilemmas they face like limited socialization opportunities, tremendous workload and insufficient time, departmental politics, lack of resources that hamper them to conduct researches.…”

Research is a universally acknowledged tool in and for education. This study investigates the enablers and outcomes of research productivity of high school mathematics teachers. Using partial least square structural equation modelling, data from 211 tenth-grade mathematics teachers of five public schools divisions in the northeastern part of Philippines was evaluated. Findings showed that the research participation and productivity respondents was generally low but the teacher-researchers' growth potential is immense. The individual-institutional-leadership model strongly and positively influenced research productivity. Leadership in research in the school level is a critical area towards research productivity. The findings have policy implications in terms on how to encourage mathematics teachers to participate in research-related activities that will contribute to a research-informed teaching and learning. It is highly recommended to develop interventions to improve involvement, extrinsic motivation, mentoring, networking, resources, and leadership domains.

Using a convenience sample of 120 elementary, high school and senior high school classroom teachers in a City Schools Division, province of Bulacan, Philippines, the respondents were asked to complete a survey on general research skills and quantitative and qualitative research skills. The study explored the current status of teachers’ research competence. The results and findings of this study will serve as bases for policy enhancement. The policies anchored on concrete and evidence-based viewpoints contribute to successfully developing a culture of research among basic education teachers. As findings of the study reveal the current status of teacher-respondents regarding their research skills, overall numerical rating pegged to be “fair” when interpreted; it reflects a much serious state about their plight. The prerequisite to the successful implementation of research programs for teachers is on the basic assumption that teachers possess the necessary skills to do the task. Also, this is then being enhanced by revisiting teachers’ workload. Moreover, the presence of funding programs for teachers’ research projects exhibits a positive development in strengthening support for teachers’ professional development.

“…Similarly, in Malaysia, professional development programs were also formed to better the English language instructions of the English teachers in the government schools (Hall, 2015). And, a practicum teaching for pre-service teachers and yearly teacher training programs for in-service teachers were also required by both the Department of Education and the Commission on Higher Education in the Philippines to prepare and update the teaching skills of the teachers (Ulla, 2016;Ulla, Barrera, & Acompanado, 2017).…”
