1. Home- School Approach: Linkage Assessment
of Students Competency
with the Aid of a Home Study Guide in
Technology and Livelihood Education (TLE)
for Grade 10 Students of Nabua National High School
Researcher: Priscilla Mutya

2. BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
DepEd, through the External Partnerships Service (EPS), provided strategies
and best practices for parents to improve home learning experience with Filipino
learners through an orientation on the Parents’ Role for a Better Learning at Home.
It highlighted that parents play a vital role in the success of the learners not only in
the lessons they learn from the teachers, but also in the guidance to nurture
holistically developed individuals. This has been very successful and useful during
the past years of the health crisis when there is absence of in- persons classes and
learners are mentored by more knowledgeable others in their respective homes.

3. PURPOSE OF THE STUDY
This study will be having a comparative assessment of the results of hands-
on activities and tasks in the pre- implementation stage to post- implementation
of the home study guide. The result of the tasks and activities with proper
instructions and rubrics will determine whether there is impact and good result
which will be basis for policy recommendation and adoption or acceptance of
the instructional material. The home study guide in TLE will provide activities in
TLE 10 for Grade 10 students with clear instructions for the tasks and activities
to ensure that the assistance in homes will be able to follow.

12. DEFINITION OF TERMS
The following terms are operationally defined to attain clarity on the discussion of this study,
to wit:
Competency Assessment. It measures how (behaviors) someone does the what (task or
skill). The individual's selected proficiency level is then compared with the target level, defining
proficiency or skill gaps for each task and skill. Through the use of the GABAYS manual, proper
alignment based from the competencies and aptitude of the learner will be the recommended field
of specialization.
Cookery. This consists of competencies that a person. must achieve to clean kitchen areas,
prepare hot, cold meals and desserts for guests. in various food and beverage service facilities.
Curriculum Guide (CG). It is a listing of expected outcomes in Technology and Livelihood
Education for all levels of the learners. This outcome includes the content and performance
standards as bases of the TLE framework.

13. DEFINITION OF TERMS
Effectiveness. It refers to the significant difference between the competencies
developed in the experimental and control groups.
Field of Specialization. may be a course of study or major at an academic
institution, or may refer to the field in which a specialist practices. In the case of an
educator, academic specialization pertains to the subject that they specialize in and
teach.
Home- School Approach. Home-school partnerships involve teachers finding
opportunities for students and/or families to share knowledge and skills gained through
home and family experiences. Teachers use students' home experiences to devise
meaningful and relevant learning activities. In the present study, it talks on
acknowledging the advantages of having assistance from more knowledgeable others
(mko) in homes to master skills in TLE specifically in cookery

14. DEFINITION OF TERMS
