Embracing Diversity: Empowerment of Filipino Pre-Service Teachers for Inclusive Education
The increasing diversity in schools requires in-depth understanding of pedagogical approaches to teach diverse populations. This requirement demands Teacher Education Institutions to develop among pre-service teachers positive attitude towards inclusion and prepare and train them to deliver inclusive practices in a mainstream classroom. This study investigated the attitude towards inclusive education, perceived level of readiness...
A participatory action research (PAR)-influenced mentoring program forgraduate students
The study described a mentoring program of a state-funded research and its effects on research and reflective practices to graduate students. Participatory Action Research (PAR), designed as a methodical and program framework, engaged nine mentors (researchers of a state-funded research) and 29 graduate students (purposively invited) to training-based mentoring (workshops and field work), small group...
Some Parameters of the Central Graphs of the Identity Graphs of Finite Cyclic Groups
The interplay of groups and graphs has been a subject of interest by mathematics researchers nowadays. One particular instance is the identity graph of a group introduced by Kandasamy [5]. Moreover, the concept of a central graph of any graph is widely used by many graph theorists. The central graph of a graph G denoted...
Exploring the concept of pedagogical resilience during the COVID-19 pandemic: Teachers’ perspectives from Thailand and the Philippines
This brief research report aimed to explore the concept of pedagogical resilience and how teachers in Thailand and the Philippines build resilience in pedagogy during the COVID-19 pandemic. Employing the qualitative research design, the data were obtained from the focus group discussion (FGD) and semi-structured interviews with 12 teachers, 8 of whom were from 1...

On Some Properties of Non-traceable Cubic Bridge Graph
Graphs considered in this paper are simple finite undirected graphs without loops or multiple edges. A simple graphs where each vertex has degree 3 is called cubic graphs. A cubic graphs, that is, 1-connected or cubic bridge graph is traceable if its contains Hamiltonian path otherwise, non-traceable. In this paper, we introduce a new family...
Concentration Robustness in LP Kinetic Systems
For a reaction network with species set S, a log-parametrized (LP) set is a non-empty set of the form E(P,x∗)={x∈RS>∣logx−logx∗∈P⊥} where P (called the LP set’s flux subspace) is a subspace of RS, x∗ (called the LP set’s reference point) is a given element of RS>, and P⊥ (called the LP set’s parameter subspace) is...
