Title: Challenges in the Implementation of School-Based Management of Developing Schools: Basis for A Compliance Framework
Abstract: This study is qualitative research that employed descriptive design. It aimed to determine the challenges encountered by the Level 1(Developing) schools in the District Schools, Division of Bulacan, Philippines in the implementation of School-Based Management (SBM) as a basis for the proposal of a Compliance Framework. Generally, this study describes the level of compliance in the implementation of School-Based Management of participant schools. The study also determined how the schools addressed the challenges encountered that led to the development of a Compliance Framework. In the gathering of data needed in this study, the researchers utilized the School-Based Management (SBM) validation results of each school. Other data were gathered from the School Heads and SBM (School-Based Management) coordinators through survey-interview using semi-structured interview questions formulated by the researchers. Gathered data were organized, tallied, and tabulated for better interpretation and analysis. Based on the findings, it was concluded that the actual performance of schools studied was way below the expected standards of advanced level of School-Based Management and that there is a need for improvement of these schools in the implementation of all the principles of School-Based Management. In particular, this study revealed that participant schools experienced challenges in managing the four dimensions/principles of School-Based Management. The challenges that the schools encountered in terms of Leadership and Governance include guiding the teachers in the proper implementation of School-Based Management, the school head’s role in providing guidance to teachers and parents, establishing open communication, implementation of plans, and monitoring of plan execution, engagement of the local community in school improvement planning, initiatives from school district officials. The challenges encountered in terms of Curriculum and Instruction include the adequacy of learning technologies, appropriateness of learning materials for the learners, evidence of learning outcomes and performance improvement, financial resources to support curriculum instruction, and upskilling and retooling of teachers. The challenges encountered in terms of Accountability and Continuous Improvements include financial and time constraints, compliance with pertinent documents, periodic review of appraisal mechanisms, continuous improvement projects, familiarity with the implementation of the School-Based Management, performance evaluation tools, documentation protocol, and recording of outputs, continuous school progress, and improvement, the commitment of teachers through equitable compensation, and involvement of stakeholders for improvement. The challenges encountered in terms of Management Resources include financial constraints, teachers & students’ engagement in school operations, support from the low-income earning family of stakeholder, involvement of the community, limited support from small stakeholders, manpower resources, engagement of the local community in school improvement planning, insufficient school fund, and immediate support from the Local Government Unit. Based on the conclusion, the researchers recommend that schools need to conduct comprehensive training on the management and implementation of the School-Based Management (SBM) system. It is necessary to require School Heads and teachers to attend related training on adequate supervision, curriculum development, and accomplishing monthly and quarterly instructional and supervisory plans. In addition, periodic monitoring of the school’s performance is needed to determine if the actual accomplishments of the school fully comply with the School-Based Management standards. Active engagement of the schools to the community is also recommended. Lastly, the implementation of the proposed Compliance Framework generated in this study is highly recommended to intensify the implementation of School-Based Management to improve the level of the school from Level 1 to a higher level.

Title: Using Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) As Means for Internationalization: Reflections from Academics
Abstract: Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) is an educational strategy that promotes international learning through online cooperation between academics and students from various countries or regions within the context of a course. The purpose of this research is to uncover the function of COIL projects in the context of higher education institutions (HEIs) worldwide. Reflections from two Central University of Technology, Free State academics who collaborated with international partners to teach courses in different locations and co-facilitated online collaborative activities are shared. The study is qualitative in nature and a case study research design was adopted. Results revealed that a greater international awareness in curriculum design solutions and an appreciation for innovative teaching solutions is needed. The recommendations in this paper are to develop COIL initiatives at Universities of Technology (UoTs) in order to aid in the development of global-minded students and curricular internationalization.

Title: Assessing The Impact of The Science ready Preparatory Short Course on Student Academic Performance
Abstract: Starting university can be a daunting experience representing a big adjustment for first year students. Facilitating a smooth transition to university sets students up for successful degree completion; however, if students struggle or become disengaged, they can underperform or drop out completely. An early support system, the 'ScienceReady' short course has been designed to assist with the transition to university study for nursing and midwifery students. It has been designed to provide essential academic skills and foundational science knowledge, reduce anxiety, and assist in the formation of early friendship groups, with the overall aim to improve student success. As well as improving background knowledge, the course also allows students to visit laboratories, meet staff and interact with their peers. Despite its scope, we knew little about the impact of attending ScienceReady on later academic outcomes. This study assessed the impact of ScienceReady attendance on first-year academic success, providing evidence for the importance of early support systems in tertiary success.

Title: Comparing Perceived Cognitive Load While Playing Extended Reality Games about Climate Change
Abstract: Integrating extended reality (XR) into undergraduate classrooms is not a new concept. However, comparing identical content in subdomains of XR is unique. This study compared two undergraduate courses focused on climate change on the Outer Banks of the North Carolina, USA coast at a large university in the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States. The purpose of these courses was to examine human and environmental impacts of global climate change in a local context. Investigating the challenges facing North Carolina barrier islands, the class took a 5-day field trip to the Outer Banks of North Carolina and visited five sites where they used augmented reality (MR) to learn about the impact on climate change at those respected locations. The comparison class immersed in virtual reality (iVR) of the five sites using the same information provided in the MR. 26 (6 MR and 20 iVR) participants completed the National Aeronautics and Space Agency Task Load Index (TLX) immediately after completion of either the respective MR or iVR based game. Weighted mean comparison suggest no differences in perceived mental demand, statistically significant differences in physical demand, temporal demand, performance, effort, and frustration for the MR group. An explanation for possible reasons for these results will be discussed.

Title: The Process of Inclusive Education through the Art Project in a Multicultural School with Chinese Students: A Case Study of One Public School in Barcelona
Abstract: Inclusive education is at a crossroads due to a lack of quality practice development. One factor for practice gridlock is a scarcity of high-quality resources in schools. Nowadays, looking for outside resources from social organizations is a more cost-effective strategy to compensate for a shortage of resources. The Tandem project is a theme topic inquiry project chosen by students based on their oral or artistic expression during and after their visit to the Museo. It involves collaboration between one Barcelona public immigrant school and the Museo Nacional de Arte de Catalunya. This project challenged standard pedagogy in a student-centered method by including varied cultural expressions. This research used a mixed method for collecting data. Our research discovered that after many years of tandem initiatives at this multicultural school, more local culture families are attending, and pupils are more inclined to participate in school events. Those are important indicators for developing an inclusive school community.

Title: Developing Curriculum for Education for Sustainable Development - Theoretical and Practical Basis for Curriculum
Advancement. Example of High School Experience.
Abstract: ESD for 2030 will promote the integration of sustainable development and the SDGs into education and learning, as well as ensuring the integration of education and learning into all activities that promote sustainable development and the SDGs. (Unesco, 2020). The present day, worldwide, sustainability crisis is the crisis of our moral precept, the crisis of values that drives the whole societal development.(e.g Ospina,2000; Babiuk &Falkenberg, 2010 etc.). Obviously, the field of education carries a special responsibility in shaping the value systems of students for our sustainable futures. So- the question remains, in the context of the framework of a holistic education (as opposed to mechanistic view on education) -what to learn, teach, study exactly? Learning should address root causes of the crisis of unsustainability. By challenging the underlying paradigms, that contribute to the disconnection of people and the Earth, learning has to involve transformational dimensions of education. This means, involving also more spiritual dimensions of education, e.g. heritage dimensions. Above all, learning needs to be localized. All these critical questions have been addressed in the development of one particular high school course curriculum- sustainable economics.
Keywords: education for sustainable development; curriculum; transformational learning.
