“…This underlines how vital it is to offer youths such fundamental direction and assistance as soon as possible in order to improve their lives. One of the pillars that normally bears this burden is education (Alfares, 2021;Mamba et al, 2021;Tabor, Larsen, & Oberle, 2022).…”

This paper aims to examine the impacts of career guidance interventions on school students’ career-related skills, knowledge and beliefs by combining relevant empirical studies conducted in the last 10 years. A random-effects meta-analytic technique was employed for this purpose. After screening, electronic databases using pre-defined eligibility criteria, nine studies involving a total of 1,433 participants were included in the final meta-analysis. The analysis yielded a weighted mean effect size of 0.42 (95% confidence interval = 0.19, 0.65; z = 3.61, p < 0.01) which may be construed as a moderate-to-high effect size with a significant difference between the treatment and control conditions at post-treatment. As a result, post-test career-related outcomes in students who received career guidance were significantly higher than in non-guidance groups. The results suggest that career interventions may provide some modest developmental progression in school-age children and adolescents particularly through improving learners’ career decidedness and attitudes such as future time perspective. These findings might have strategic implications for policy and practice. This paper extends past research on career guidance effectiveness by identifying the combined effect size of relevant career interventions.

This study investigates the research readiness of Alternative Learning System ALS senior high school students at Bulan National High School for the 2023 - 2024 school year. Using a mixed - method approach, 72 students were assessed using Lacson’s Research Skill Scale to evaluate their abilities in problem conceptualization, research methods, data analysis, and writing reporting results. Follow - up interviews provided deeper insights into the underlying factors affecting readiness. The findings revealed moderate readiness overall, with variations across different skill sets. Key challenges included concept mapping, question formulation, information literacy, and statistical analysis, influenced by factors such as work - life balance and internet connectivity. To address these gaps, a research toolkit with lesson exemplars is proposed to enhance the research capabilities of ALS students.

Enhancing teachers' and students' 21st-century skills is a valuable goal. This study explores the skills and roles of teachers in 21st-century education across three community colleges: Opol, Tagoloan, and Salay, during the 2023-2024 academic year. The research investigates the relationship between teachers' skills and their roles in modern education and examines differences based on the respondents' profiles. The study involved 255 teachers from local government-run colleges in Misamis Oriental, using a validated questionnaire and a mixed-methods descriptive approach. Statistical analyses included mean, standard deviation, ANOVA, and correlation tests. The results revealed that most participants held units in master's degrees, with communication skills rated highest. The role of facilitator emerged as the most prominent in 21st-century teaching. Notably, creative thinking, critical thinking, collaboration, and communication skills significantly correlated with teachers' roles. Characteristics such as age and position also influenced their skills and roles. The study emphasized Deci and Ryan’s theory, Vygotsky’s zone of proximal development, and ICT integration to address the complexity of modern teaching. In conclusion, community college teachers are eager to adopt 21st-century teaching skills. It is recommended to encourage faculty to complete graduate studies, model critical thinking, recognize teachers' efforts, create engaging environments, retrain senior teachers, and support their well-being through seminars and workshops.
