520 3 _aCOSTA, LIZA COSTA. Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite. April 1999. An Evaluation of the Master of Arts in Education Program of Cavite State University, 1990-1998. Major Professor: Dr. Constancia G. Cueno This study aimed to analyze the Cavite State University Master of Arts in Education program from 1990 to 1998. Specifically, this study sought to: 1. describe the profile of the MAEd faculty members in terms of age, gender, religion, civil status, previous and present positions and educational attainment; 2. describe the profile of active and inactive MAEd students and graduates in terms of: age, gender, religion, civil status, bachelor’s degree course, MAEd major, previous and present positions, employment status and length of service in education; 3. determine the extent of achievement of program objectives; 4. examine how the respondents evaluate the following components of the MAEd program: a. Facilities b. Curriculum c. Working condition d. Faculty members’ attitude and performance e. Teaching procedures employed by teachers f. Learning process g. Linkages 5. determine the level of performance of MAEd students; 6. determine the respondents’ general assessment of the MAEd program in terms of appropriateness of courses offered, growth of professional career, status satisfaction and self-fulfillment; 7. determine the significant differences in the respondents’ evaluation of the components of the program; 8. identify the problems/difficulties encountered by the respondents; and 9. suggest possible improvements or changes that may be instituted. This evaluation is a descriptive correlational study which made use of questionnaires as its principal instrument. The respondents were 31 faculty members, 16 graduates, 121 active students and 142 inactive students. Frequency counts, percentage, analysis of variance and mean comparison were employed to analyze the data. After analyzing and interpreting the data, the following were revealed: Majority of the respondents were female, married, and Roman Catholic. Most of the faculty members were administrators and were holding doctoral degrees. MAEGd students were classified into active and inactive groups. Majority of both the respondent groups were graduates of education and were into teaching. Majority of students got better position and better employment status after earning MAEd units. Elementary Education was the specialization course of the majority of graduates and no one among the 16 graduates were science education major. Fifty percent of the graduates were already promoted from teaching to administrative positions and 50 percent were still on their previous teaching positions. Among the graduate degrees offered by CvSU Office of Graduate Studies, Master of Arts in Education got the most number of enrollees but the least number of graduates. Book references in education, up-to-date journals, magazines and other research materials were inadequate as well as the lecture and laboratory facilities. On the other hand, room space in the library and conducive classrooms were adequate. Major and specialization courses were adequate while foundation courses were inadequate. To faculty members, MAEd courses were casy, for the graduate-respondents, these were difficult and for the active and inactive students, these were very difficult. MAEZd faculty members received minimal honorarium but still, they were amenable to do additional work. Faculty members’ self-rating of their attitude and performance was “outstanding” while their students rated them “very satisfactory”. This is indicative of the high performance of MAEd faculty members. Program updates were rated “very satisfactory” while support to other programs, presence of committee for program evaluation and other school coordination for program improvement were rated “outstanding”. Students’ level of performance was “satisfactory” as assessed by their teachers while students’ self-assessment of their performance in MAEd program activities was “very satisfactory”. Graduates were satisfied in terms of self-fulfillment, professional development and status satisfaction after taking MAEd. There were highly significant differences in the respondents’ assessment of program components, student performance and general assessment of the program. Faculty members were not satisfied with the performance of MAEd students. The reasons given for having few graduates of the program were students’ lack of interest to finish the degree and inactive students’ problem of lack of money to support their studies and their theses. Out of 142 inactive student-respondents, 41 (29°) transferred to other schools offering MAEd program while nine (6.3%) were able to finish their MAEd degree in other institutions due to the following reasons: difficulty of CVSU MAEd subjects, strict teachers and too many requirements. The following were suggested to improve the MAEd program: strictest screening, process; requiring academically unprepared students to take basic education and basic Statistics courses; revision of foundation course offerings based on students’ needs; assessment of learning activities in terms of difficulty and appropriateness; integration of field trips and practical work in the learning process; identification of sources of funds for more and better facilities; and judicious honorarium for faculty members; and giving of financial support for the students’ theses.
