Abstract

This study examines the performance of Bachelor of Secondary Education (BSED) graduates from one of the Cordillera Administrative Region's State Colleges and Universities from 2016 to 2018. It evaluated academic performance across three domains: general education, professional education, specialization, and overall LET performance. The relationship between academic performance and LET performance was also investigated. In this study, the descriptive-correlational research method was used. The collected data was statistically treated with frequency, mean, and percentage on descriptive, ANOVA on testing significant difference with LSD post hoc analysis, and Pearson r correlation on test of performance relationship. The findings revealed that the academic performance of BSED graduates was strong across the board. On the LET, the graduates had a higher percentage of passers than non-passers. The majority of examinees passed all components of the LET, but struggled in the specialization subjects. Academic performance is strongly linked to LET performance. Therefore, the Bachelor of Secondary education (BSE) curriculum and instruction of the college is relevant in preparing the students for the teaching profession. The Bachelor of Secondary education (BSE) curriculum contents is relevant in passing the Licensure Examination for Teachers (LET). More so that it needs an emphasis on the field of specialization. And, graduates' academic standing has a great impact on their performance on the Licensure Examination for Teachers (LET). Thus, the Teacher Education Department must maintain and improve academic performance by reviewing syllabi and ensuring that Teaching-Learning Activities (TLA's) and Assessment Tasks (AT's) are implemented, particularly in the major field. With a need to focus more on strengthening LET examinees' performance across specialization subjects, Teacher Education may consider developing an improved instructional plan and prioritizing strategies that will address issues in students' academic performance. As a foundation for the Department's policy directions and interventions, additional research on other variables influencing teaching-learning performance may be conducted.
