CHAPTER 1

THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND


This chapter presents the introduction, framework of the study, statement of the
problem, hypothesis, and significance of the study, scope and limitation, and definition of
terms.

Introduction

Home and curricular factors play a big role in learning engagement of the pupils.
These two factors could impact pupil’s learning engagement negatively and positively. If
one of these two factors fails to contribute its part, the remaining factor would not also be
a hundred percent effective in the learning engagement of the pupils. Children first learn
in their own homes, where they practice different aspects by the help of their parents and
other members of the family. A family's involvement directly enhances a child's
achievement in school. Pupils get the family support they need to cultivate a lifetime love
of learning when families are actively involved in their children's educational experiences.
Promoting family involvement goes beyond just good manners.
Curricular factors also affect pupils learning engagement by the quality teaching,
curriculum design, learning resources and materials, differentiation and personalization,
and assessment and feedback. These factors could either enhance or discourage the pupils
and that could affect their performance.
As observed at Barangay Tinogpahan, there are a lot of cases where some pupils
grow up without the parental guidance that is essential, especially for young children.

Some pupils grow up with only their mother or father, and some pupils grow up with their
siblings, who will look after them. There are some cases where pupils go to school with
empty stomach, without a ballpoint pen, notebooks, or papers that they will ask their
classmates to give them so they have something to write on. In addition, some pupils
choose to help their parents with their cost of living rather than go to school. Some pupils
choose to stop going to school in order to guard their other siblings at home. It is really
hard for those pupils who faced that kind of situation; at such a young age, they already
engaged in a situation that they did not deserve. They deserve to enjoy their childhood,
they should be playing in the playground, enjoying their class, and enjoying themselves
with their friends and classmates, chit-chatting and laughing with their friends.
This study aims to determine how home and curricular factors influence the
learning engagement of the pupils of Tinogpahan Elementary School. These could be the
factors that have an impact of the pupils. It could possibly have negative impact on the
pupils. One way to cope up with this problem is that, parents should be the one who give
their children the support that they needed.

Framework of the study


The study was anchored from Bronfenbrenner’s (1979). The Bio-ecological
theory. The theory suits and is relevant for this research topic in the sense that it
highlights the dynamic interplay between various environmental systems and their impact
on an individual’s development. The theory emphasizes the importance of considering the
different layers of the environment, including the micro-system (such as the home
environment), mesosystem (such as interactions between home and school), exosystem
(such as community resources), and macro-system (such as cultural values and norms). In
the context of the impact of home curricular factors on learning engagement, the theory
helps us understand how the home environment, as a micro-system, can influence pupils’
engagement in learning through the interactions and relationships they have with their

family members, the availability of resources, and the support they receive from their
immediate surroundings.
Figure 1 of the schematic diagram, the first box, the profile of the respondents are
included in the study which includes their age, sex, grade level, educational attainment,
and socioeconomic status. Age is to determine whether the respondent's age is appropriate
for their grade level. Sex is to determine how many boys and girls are in the class. The
Grade level is to determine the number of pupils in grades 5 and 6 in the class.
Educational attainment is to determine the capability of the parents in supporting the
needs of their children, not just in education but also the perception of the parents on how
important education is. Socioeconomic status is to determine if the parents can support
the basic needs of their children.
In the second box, which are the home factors, that consists of parental
involvement, parental attitudes and expectations, and lastly, home learning environment.
Parental involvement plays a vital role in the learning process due to its positive impact
on a child's development, academic success, and emotional well-being. Parental attitudes
and expectations influence pupils motivation, behaviour, and long-term objectives. Pupils
can be empowered to fulfil their potential with the help of positive attitudes and acceptable
expectations. Home learning environment offers a welcoming environment that fosters
curiosity and development. It provides access to technology and educational tools,
promotes parental involvement, sets routines, and fosters emotional well-being. This
setting lessens distractions, promotes a healthy lifestyle, and lays the groundwork for a
child's overall growth and academic achievement, making it an essential component of the
pupil's educational journey.
And the third box, which is Curriculum factors, consists of curriculum flexibility,

cross-grade collaboration, differentiation strategies, and resource allocation. Curriculum

flexibility is essential for curricular factors because it enables education to adapt to the

diverse needs of students and the changing demands of the world. A flexible curriculum

allows for personalized learning, catering to different learning styles and interests,

fostering creativity and innovation, and ensuring that students are prepared for the

challenges of the future. It also promotes inclusivity by accommodating special needs and

diverse cultural perspectives. Ultimately, curriculum flexibility empowers both students

and educators to engage in dynamic and effective learning experiences that better align

with the realities of our ever-evolving society. Cross-grade collaboration is crucial for

curricular factors as it enriches the educational experience by fostering peer learning,

promoting social and emotional growth, broadening perspectives, and optimistic are

crucial for curricular factors because they address the diverse needs, abilities, and learning

styles of students within the same classroom. By tailoring instruction to individual

learners, educators can ensure that all students have the opportunity to succeed and reach

their full potential. This approach promotes inclusive education, prevents achievement

gaps, and maximises student engagement. Furthermore, differentiation strategies

recognize that students come to the classroom with varied backgrounds and prior

knowledge, allowing teachers to build on these foundations and provide a more

personalized and effective learning experience. Ultimately, differentiation enhances the

overall quality of education by accommodating the unique characteristics of each student,

contributing to their academic and personal growth. Resource allocation is critical for

curricular factors as it directly impacts the quality of education. Effective distribution of

resources ensures that schools have access to the necessary materials, technology,

qualified teachers, and facilities to support a well-rounded curriculum. It helps create

equitable learning opportunities for all students, regardless of their socioeconomic

background or location. Proper resource allocation can enhance teaching and learning

experiences, promote innovative teaching methods, and provide students with the tools

they need to succeed academically. Additionally, it supports the development and

implementation of diverse programme that cater to various learning styles, fostering a

more inclusive and comprehensive educational system.

Significance of the Study


The findings of the study would contribute and would benefit of the following:
School Heads. The findings of this would benefit the School Head for it will serve
as a basis on what influences the pupils in their learning engagement. It can be an eye
opener to the School Head to find a way, on what should they do in order to help the
pupils.
Teachers. The findings of this study can help the teachers for them to be well
aware on the factors that can affect their pupils. By this, the teachers would be able to
know what how they will handle and guide their pupils in coping up with these factors.
They can ask help from government agencies or other platforms that can give possible
help to the pupils in different ways.
Parents. The family can affect a student’s learning engagement. A stable and

supportive family environment promotes engagement, while factors like family conflicts,

parental separation, or lack of emotional support hinder it.

Pupils. The findings of this study can help the pupils in coping with the factors

that might affect their learning engagement. It can be a reference for them to have certain

solutions while they are in the situation where in they are having difficulty in their

learning engagement.

of the pupils in the grade 5 & 6 are 30 only.

Definition of Terms

The following terms are operationally defined to guide readers to have clear minds

as to its use and purposes.

Curriculum Factors. Play a vital role in shaping educational experiences and

outcomes. It encompass the selection of subjects, content, teaching methods, and

assessment strategies that guide the learning process. They determine what knowledge and

skills students acquire, impacting their intellectual development and future prospects. By

addressing diverse learning styles, abilities, and interests, curriculum factors promote

inclusivity and equitable education. Additionally, they reflect societal needs and values,

helping students develop a well-rounded perspective and relevant skills for the evolving

world.

Home. Serves as the foundation for individuals, providing a nurturing and

supportive environment for personal growth and development. It plays a vital role in
Northeastern Mindanao Colleges
Corner Rizal and Amat St.,
8400, Surigao City

Home and Curricular Factors Influencing the Learning Engagement of Elementary Pupils
of Tinogpahan Elementary School

shaping values, beliefs, and behaviors, as it is where core life skills, social norms, and

cultural traditions are often first introduced. The home offers emotional security, fostering

a sense of belonging and identity. It is a place where relationships are nurtured, and

communication skills are honed, laying the groundwork for healthy interactions in broader

society. Through the family unit, the home contributes significantly to the physical,

emotional, and cognitive well-being of its members, ultimately influencing their roles and

contributions in the wider world.

Parents. Play a vital role in a child's development by providing love, guidance,

and a nurturing environment. They serve as primary caregivers, shaping the child's values,

attitudes, and behavior through their actions and words. Parents offer emotional support,

instill important life skills, and act as role models for their children. Their involvement in

education, social interactions, and decision-making helps children build a strong

foundation for their future. Effective parenting involves balancing discipline with

empathy, fostering open communication, and fostering a sense of security and belonging

for the child to thrive.

Pupils. They represent the future generation. They play an essential role in

learning, growing, and developing the skills, knowledge, and values necessary to become

responsible and productive members of society. Pupils engage in formal education,

acquiring academic and social skills that shape their character and enable them to

contribute positively to their communities. Their curiosity, creativity, and enthusiasm

drive progress and innovation, while their ability to absorb information and adapt to

changing circumstances ensures the continuity of cultural, social, and technological

advancements.

Learning Engagement. Plays a vital role in a child's educational journey,

fostering active participation, curiosity, and intrinsic motivation. When a child is engaged

in their learning, they are more likely to absorb information, develop critical thinking

skills, and retain knowledge over the long term. Engagement enhances their ability to

connect with and comprehend complex concepts, fostering a deeper understanding of the

subjects they study. It cultivates a sense of ownership over their education, empowering

them to take initiative, explore interests, and become self-directed learners. Learning

engagement nurtures a lifelong love for learning and equips children with the skills and

mindset necessary to thrive in various aspects of their personal and professional lives.

School Heads. Multifaceted and plays a vital role in fostering a conducive learning

environment. They are responsible for providing visionary leadership, setting academic

standards, and managing administrative operations. Head teachers oversee curriculum

implementation, teacher development, and student welfare, ensuring a balanced

educational experience. They collaborate with parents, teachers, and staff, fostering a

positive school culture that promotes student growth, safety, and engagement. Through

effective communication and decision-making, head teachers play a crucial role in shaping

the overall educational journey of young learners.

Teachers. Fosters a nurturing environment that encourages curiosity, creativity,

and social development. Through interactive and engaging lessons, the teacher ignites the

CHAPTER 2

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE

This section presents previous studies, articles, and other information from

published journal and internet that are related to the study at hand.

Learning Engagement

Arguedas, Daradoumis, and Xhafa (2016), Considering social and emotional

competence in learning, emotion awareness aims to detect the emotions that students show

during their learning interactions and make these emotions explicit to them.

Being aware of their emotions, students become more conscious of their situation, what

may prompt them to behavioral change. The main goal of this work is to analyze the

effects of emotion awareness, supported by specific teaching strategies, on students’

motivation, engagement, self-regulation and learning outcome in long-term blended

collaborative learning practices. A bilateral goal also involves an initial study that explores

the way emotion awareness affects teacher’s attitude and feedback as well as the

competencies that teachers need to have in order to achieve a positive change on students’

affective and cognitive state. To this end a quasi-experimental study was designed with

high school students. The results of this study show that when students are aware of their

emotions and guided by specific teaching strategies, their learning performance improves

in relation to their motivation, engagement and self-regulation. Likewise, when teachers

are conscious of students’ emotional state their attitude and feedback become more

effective and timely.

Parental Involvement

According to Bunijevac (2017), to comply with the system of integrated support

for their students’, schools need to build partnership with parents and develop mutual

responsibility for childrens’ success in the educational system. In this way, parental

involvement are increased, parents’ effort to support schools are encouraged, and they are

directly making a positive impact to a successful educational system.

Considering the importance of parents’ participation and involvement in school activities,

in this paper, we will analyse the positive effects of parental involvement, summarize

leading principles for the successful partnership of parents and school and present six

factors (Parenting, Communicating, Volunteering, Learning at home, Decision-making

and Collaborating with the community) and six models (Protective Model, Expert Model,

Transmission Model, Curriculum-Enrichment Model, Consumer Model and Partnership

Model) of parental involvement. In addition, we will draw conclusions and make

recommendations that are important for planning programs that are focused on the

improvement of parent involvement.

Blumenfeld, and Paris (2004) described students’ engagement as a

complex, multifaceted process presumed to be affected by contextual features. It consists

of three components, namely cognitive engagement, behavioral engagement and

emotional engagement. Cognitive engagement is the mental process that involves

students’ knowledge and skills in learning; behavioral engagement is the extent to which

student demonstrate positive actions towards the institution, their social circle, the
Northeastern Mindanao Colleges

of Tinogpahan Elementary School

academic subject matter, and extra-curricular activities; and lastly emotional engagement

is the student’s feelings towards their teachers, institutions and fellow peers (Northey et al.

2015). Therefore, engagement includes what individuals feel (emotional), think

(cognitive), and plan to do (behavioral). This is consistent with the concept of students’

engagement by Vibert and Shields (2003) that it could be learn from different aspects, for

example emotional, cognitive, and behavioral components.

Font and Maguire-Jack (2013) the authors examined whether being placed in

foster care was associated with school engagement and performance. The authors used

propensity score matching to compare children who had similar demographic

characteristics, maltreatment histories, and prior levels of school engagement. Children

who were in foster care at wave 2 were found to have higher levels of cognitive

engagement in school compared to children who were maltreated but never removed from

their homes. It is recommended that children who are maltreated but remain in their

familial home receive additional intervention related to their educational engagement.

Mansour and Martin (2012), he home and parental factors that predict

achievement motivation are an important focus in research, because they are a clear point

for potential educational and psychological support for students. The present study

investigates the achievement motivation of high school students, in the context of parental

and home factors such as home resources, in- and out-of-home parental assistance,

parenting style, and parental involvement in the school. Among a sample of 100

Australian high school students, hierarchy multiple linear regression analyses were

performed in order to determine the relative salience of the proposed home and parental

factors predicting students' achievement motivation. Results demonstrated that over and

above demographic factors such as age, gender and ethnicity, home and parental factors

do indeed play a critical function in predicting student motivation and engagement.

Specifically, the study reveals that home resources and parenting style are the most salient

home and parental factors associated with key aspects of achievement motivation and

engagement (planning, task management, teacher–student relationships — positively, and

self-handicapping — negatively). These findings affirm the role of the home and parents

in students' academic development. Implications for future research and practice

harnessing the present findings are discussed.

Curricular Factors

The study of Frances, et al. (2018), define accountability broadly as a

government's mechanism for holding educational institutions to account for the delivery of

high quality education. The idea that the practice of accountability can contribute directly

to improvements in education is a powerful one that underpins policy. Paradoxically,

though, some hold that accountability systems can also produce negative impacts on

education, making it more difficult for schools to deliver the sought after quality. They

believe it is critical that research evidence should inform any rationales for policy change.

The literature review aims to evaluate a small body of international research evidence on

the impact of accountability on three key areas: (1) curriculum; (2) standards; and (3)

engagement. Three appendices are included.

Feldman, et al. (2005), reviews the contemporary literature on school-based

activity participation, focusing on patterns of participation, academic achievement,

substance use, sexual activity, psychological adjustment, delinquency, and young adult

outcomes. Also, the authors discuss possible mediators and moderators of extracurricular

activity participation in regard to adolescent development. The review indicates that the

associations between school-based activity participation and these outcomes are mostly

positive but that the picture becomes mixed once moderator variables are included. The

authors suggest areas for future research that include using new methods for measuring

activities and applying an overarching theoretical framework to investigations of

extracurricular activities and adolescent development. Finally, to move toward a causal

model of activities and adolescent functioning, future research must consider the

mechanisms through which activities exert their influence on development. The authors

propose several possible mechanisms of participation in terms of adjustment during

adolescence and young adulthood.

Synthesis of the Review

The ideas presented by different authors highlighted the Impact of Home and

Curricular factors on learning engagement. The similarities of Learning Engagement,

Home factors, and Curricular factors is that, these three plays a vital role in the learning's

of the pupils. It could give positive impact or influence towards them. These factors are all

similar in a way that, it could give pupils an influence in their learning engagement.

However, they are also different in a way that, each factors give different types of

influence. In home factors, parents and home environment are the basic variable that could

impact the pupils. In curricular factors, curriculum flexibility and differentiation of

strategies are some variables that could influence the pupils. As such, both Home and

Curricular factors with their different variables could influence the Learning engagement

of the pupils. They are only different in their variables or style on how they will influence

the pupils.
