    Disorientation and queering action in distance education: The queer lived experiences of the queer Filipino teacher
    Balensoy, Timoteo C., III (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2022-05)
    Queer studies highlight that beyond the idea of gender and sexuality, queerness branches through a vast field of disciplines and focus, urging scholarly interest towards the queer phenomenological question regarding the peculiar and confusing experiences an individual acquires when occupying a particular space as well as the actions they do in a space. Utilizing Ahmed’s Queer Phenomenology (2006) as the theoretical anchor for this inquiry, this study explored queer lived experiences through the experiences of disorientation and the queering actions of queer Filipino teachers; specifically, the mechanisms, the experiences, and the outcomes as queer Filipino teachers become challenged by the normativity of distance education, and how they addressed the challenges they experienced from the disorientation. Through interviews with eight (8) self-identified queer DepEd High School teachers from the provinces of Antique and Capiz from ages 24 to 42, this study identified that in the context of distance education during the COVID-19 pandemic, queer Filipino teachers experience disorientation through the challenges brought about by norms in the learning setup that prescribes specific actions, practices and strategies to avoid and to prioritize. As they reflect on their disorienting experiences, the queer Filipino teacher recognizes a need to change their perspective and pedagogies to orient themselves in the space of distance education. This leads them to enact queering actions through a pedagogical performance of going beyond what are obligated and expected of them, as informed by their identities as queer people, as teachers, and as queer teachers.

    The 4ps in Anini-y, Antique: It's implementation and effects in upland community
    Arbolado, Essa Mae S.; Factuar, Renz Phylis G. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2016-05)
    This study discusses and analyzes the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps), its implementation, and its effects on beneficiaries’ access to basic services (education and health) and economic well-being. A total of 57 4Ps beneficiaries were surveyed, in three barangays in Anino-y, Antique. Survey data were supplemented with key informant interviews and secondary data review. The study shows that the 4Ps enhanced beneficiaries’ access to education and health services. This is manifested by consistent data on school participation and promotion rate of student beneficiaries and by children’s regular visit to health centers to monitor their health conditions. The same can be said for pregnant mothers who benefited from the program. The program was also deemed responsible for improving household conditions of beneficiaries, particularly in terms of enhanced purchasing power as testimonies by the respondents say that they now have the money to purchase basic needs which is food. The 4Ps provide direct benefits to beneficiaries but the process of implementation could have been improved by way of establishing objective and clearer targeting criteria, non-politicization of the process of selection and improving systems for monitoring to ensure compliance to conditionalities. The study suggests the infusion of community-based and participatory principles into the program to enhance local accountability and compliance.
