Abstract

Teacher competence is one of the most important drivers for enhanced learning. Thus, the study aimed to determine the profile and the level of teaching competencies of College instructors who are Baccalaureate Education graduates and Teacher Certificate Program (TCP) graduates/18 units in professional education in terms of Social Regard for Learning, Learning Environment, Diversity of Learners, Curriculum, Planning, Assessing, and Reporting, Community Linkages and Personal Growth and Development. In addition, this study determined the existence of significant relationships between the level of teaching competencies among Baccalaureate Education and TCP graduates/18 units in professional education and the profile variables. It also aimed to determine the significant difference in the level of teaching competencies among groups. Descriptive-comparative design was employed. Frequency and percentage count, mean, standard deviation, Pearson correlation and t-test were used. The instructors were rated by their immediate heads, peers and their respective students. The result of the study revealed that both the College instructors who are Baccalaureate Education and TCP graduates/18 units are qualitatively described as very competent as far as their teaching competencies are concerned. Age and length of teaching experience, are significantly related to the teaching competencies of the instructors who are Baccalaureate graduates while trainings and seminars are significantly related to the instructors who are TCP graduates/18 units. There is also a significant difference in the level of teaching competencies between the two groups in favor to the TCP graduates/18 units in professional education subjects. It is therefore commendable that continuing education programs be designed to be able to become adept with necessary skills and teaching competencies.

Findings revealed that majority of the respondents are females. Most of them reside along coastal areas. They are more exposed to broadcast media than print media and most of their parents’ educational attainment is only high school level. The public junior high school students are generally aware of disaster risk reduction issues associated with the natural hazards. There is a significant difference on the level of awareness when the respondents were grouped according to sex on issues about earthquake, typhoon, landslide, volcanic eruption and flood. Furthermore, a significant difference also existed on the level of awareness of the respondents as to disaster risk reduction issues.

The following conclusions were drawn: The K-12 curriculum of the Department of Education and symposia on disaster awareness of the National Disaster Risk Reduction Management Council of Surigao City are effective in disseminating information concerning disaster risk reduction to junior high school students. Females are more vigilant than males on disaster risk reduction issues on earthquake, typhoon, landslides, volcanic eruptions and floods because they are more sensitive about the environmental issues which are attributed to the gender role that they play in the society. Students are more aware on how to reduce risk on natural hazards that often occur in Surigao City which is the typhoon as compared to other calamities.

During your first psychiatry consultation, your psychiatrist will do an initial assessment. The first consultation is usually the longest as it should give your psychiatrist time to listen to you and hear your whole story.

Be prepared to answer lots of questions. Your psychiatrist will ask you about the problem that brought you to see them and general questions about your life and thoughts. It might be hard to answer open-ended questions, but remember that there is no wrong way to answer the questions and your psychiatrist will guide you through the interview. To get the most out of your psychiatry consultation, you should come prepared so you can be specific. If you feel comfortable, you can also share the goals you would like to achieve from the treatment. All the information you give can help your psychiatrist develop an individualized treatment plan.

You will also be asked about your medical and psychiatric history, both personal and family. Therefore, make sure that you prepare the following:

  • A list of medications you are taking

  • A list of any and all psychiatric medications you may have tried in the past and how long you took them for

  • Your medical concerns and any diagnoses

  • Family history about a psychiatric problem, if there are any.

Your psychiatrist may also want to speak with members of your family and speak with other health professionals. 

Next, your psychiatrist may take your blood pressure and do a basic physical checkup, including taking your temperature and weight. In some cases, other testing or scans may be ordered.

Based on the information your psychiatrist gathered and the test results, they will make a full diagnosis. Then, the next step is to create a treatment plan. A treatment plan consists of a combination of therapies that suit your needs, personal preferences, age, and family situation. Your psychiatrist may prescribe medication or suggest other treatments, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) or counseling.

Your psychiatrist may continue to manage your treatment or you may be referred to see other health professionals, such as a psychologist.

Your next psychiatry consultation will typically be shorter than the first. In general, you will discuss how the medicines or treatments are working, and give a concise overview of how you are doing. Your psychiatrist or other healthcare professional will decide whether your medications or treatment need to be adjusted or not.

CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY, Philippines – Another alleged victim of suspected Australian pedophile Peter Gerard Scully has come forward to seek the help of authorities.

Sarah (not her real name), 9, positively identified Scully as the man who allegedly abused her in Malate, Manila in 2011, when she was just 4 years old.

Sarah arrived at the National Bureau of Investigation Northern Mindanao office in this city on Thursday, March 19, with a social worker from the Manila Department of Social Work (MDSW) and a psychologist from a non-governmental organization working on child-victims of trafficking and abuse in Manila.

Sarah, who identified Scully from photos shown to her by authorities, filed her sworn statement at the NBI-NM.

NBI Region 10 director Angelito Magno said that based on the account of Sarah, she allegedly met Scully through her mother, reportedly a prostitute who had the Australian among her clients.

The psychologist said that Sarah “revealed” Scully’s abuses during their regular consultations. 

“We read on the news about Scully and what he does with children so we asked Sarah if she can recall the face of the man who abused her,” the psychologist said, adding that they even downloaded stories published about Scully and video clips from TV stations.

The psychologist and the social worker have requested not to be named for security reasons.

Confrontation

From the NBI headquarters, the social worker and the psychologist went to the Cagayan de Oro City jail to confront Scully. Sarah was kept in another room at the city jail.

The psychologist said Scully denied allegations of abusing children in Manila, and that he even stayed in the Philippine capital.

Scully has repeatedly claimed that he entered the country only in 2011.

Magno said they will ask their counterparts in Manila to verify the fresh allegations against Scully, including claims that he might have entered the country earlier than 2011.

“We are tracing the story, if it fits. Nonetheless, cases like this have to be investigated,” Magno said.

Sarah’s mother was arrested two months ago after Sarah’s psychologist filed charges against her for violations of Republic Act 7610 or the Special Protection For a Child Against Abuse, Exploitation, and Discrimination Act; and  RA 9208, the Anti-Trafficking in Persons Act of 2003.

The psychologist said that Sarah’s mother alleged that she met Scully as a child prostitute, and later became Scully’s partner in luring children.

“What happened then was that when Scully asked her in 2011 to bring young girls because she was already ‘too old’ for Scully, she was not able to bring any so she brought her own daughter, Sarah,”  she said.

Symbolic re-enactment of personal trauma

When asked, the psychologist shared that there is little literature and studies on pedophiles because “few would admit that they are one.” 

She said, however, that pedophiles are often victims of sexual abuse as children. 

“They were abused when they were children and what they do now is that they derived power by exercising abuse and power over the vulnerable,” the psychologist said.

In Scully’s case, she observed that Scully “finds sexual satisfaction in his sexual perversions to muster the traumatic experiences he experienced as child victim.” (READ: 13-year-old girl: ‘Uncle Peter’ Scully sold me for P100,000)

“He becomes a punisher to others to compensate the trauma he went through as a child as an attempt to resolve the trauma,” the psychologist said.

She referred to Scully’s pattern of sexual abuse involving at least 8 young girls and the alleged murder of one in Surigao City in 2013, as a symbolic reenactment of his experiences. (READ: NBI digs bones of girl allegedly killed by Aussie pedophile)

The psychologist also urged authorities to be wary of Scully’s expression of “remorse” for his misdeeds.

“That ‘remorse’ is actually a ploy to further his experience of satisfaction as a sexual deviant,” she said.

Road to recovery

The psychologist also revealed that Sarah, after living in their safe house since 2013, has showed signs of recovery from her traumatic experiences.

“With the right intervention the victims of sexual abuses can be healed and prevent them from being perpetrators, from victims to liberators,” she said.

She revealed that with their experiences in child trafficking, right intervention leads to healing but it not without pain.

“Intervention and healing is a painful process that needs to be taken, that it will lead to enlightenment. We need to show to the victims of sexual abuse that they can be healed by showing that they are worthy of love and respect,” the psychologist said.

That healing has to begin in a relationship with people who care and love them, she said. “If you deal with self worth, you can deal with lots of aspects in life.”

She also revealed that the government and society as a whole are responsible for such crimes on children.

“It all boils down to poverty, why parents sell their own children and that is a distorted values and lack of parenting skills. The systems we live in allow this kind of abuses to perpetuate because we have no adequate social supports that prevent crimes like this,” she said. – Rappler.com
