Keywords:
Quality, Quality Assurance, Teacher Education ProgramAbstract
This study determined the level of quality assurance of the teacher education program of state universities of Region II. The results were used as bases in designing a monitoring scheme for PNU – Isabela Campus, Alicia, Isabela.
It was conducted last school year 2004-2005. The participants composed of 55 deans, directors, academic chairs and faculty of the college of education of Cagayan State University (CSU), Tuguegarao City; Isabela State University (ISU), Cabagan, Isabela and Nueva Vizcaya State University (NVSU) in Bayombong, Nueva Vizcaya. Fourteen (14) alumni from CSU and NVSU were likewise included as participants. No random sampling technique was used because all the middle-level administrators and faculty of the college of education were taken as participants. The instrument used to gather data was the questionnaire used by Accrediting Agencies of Chartered Colleges and Universities of the Philippines (AACCUP). Employing the descriptive – survey method of research, the findings revealed that the level of quality assurance of the teacher education program was very good. Likewise, the level of performance and/or efficiency of the teacher education program in terms of average work competencies of middle-level administrators, faculty and alumni during the last three school years, number of graduates, and student achievement in the LET were very good. The best predictors of the perceived level of quality assurance of the teacher education program are involvement in extension/community service, work values, personality traits, length of administrative experience, performance rating, highest educational qualification, special talents, home atmosphere and age.
