CHAPTER 1

INTRODUCTION

One of the goals of K to 12 Basic Education Program is to develop the learner’s competencies,

Work ethics and values, relevant to pursuing further education and / or joining the world of work.

To achieve their greater congruence between basic education and the nations develop targets,

Work Immersion, a required subject has been incorporated in the curriculum. Work Immersion

provides them with an avenue to test them and apply what they have learned in a non-school

scenario. In Work Immersion, learners are not only able to apply their previous training but are

also be able to experience the social interactions in a work environment. Their experiences

during Work Immersion will develop many skills and values that would help them as they

transition from high school to real life.

Work Immersion refers to the subject of the Senior High School Curriculum, which

involves hands on experience or work simulation in which learners applies their competencies

and acquired knowledge relevant to their track. Work Immersion help to develop among the

learners life and career skills, and prepares them to make decision on post-secondary education

or employment. Through partnership, DepEd hopes that the partner Institutions will provide

learners with work immersion opportunities, work place or hands on experience, and additional

learning resources.

BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

The researcher considered the current situation of the Grade 12 Students of Southville 1

Integrated National High School S.Y 2017-2018 regarding the immersion training of the students

during vacation days and during academic year. This study wants to know the comparison of

performance in work immersion during vacation and during academic year. The concern of this
study is to know the effect of work immersion to the student performance during academic year,

especially now that there are some activities school work that they are now facing.This study

explored the relationship between performance of the students in work immersion during

vacation days and during academic year at the Southville 1 Integrated National High school

these requirement could cause more students that participate in work immersion have higher

achievements because they have to meet these necessary in order to compete.

These are greater need to truly understand what is the impact for the students to have

an immersion during vacation and during academic year.

THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK

The researchers adapted the general system theory by Edward Derning (J.Horine.1993)

to support this study by theory generally states that the success in any system requires more

than best effort and hard work from the administrator. The most serious observation in that

majority of problems to Derning roughly, 95% of problems belong to the system and the

responsibility of the management while workers are just trying to do the best job that they can

deliver within the constants of the system.

Each of the three materials will be reviewed in chronological order and then compared

and contrasted with each other to see what the disparate perspectives can yield when Brought

together. The author of this paper was trained in the second documents methods in the early

2000s and is writing this paper to place his education and experience in context of the greater

field of the study. By reviewing the materials can be placed in an appropriate context and there

evaluated to see where current theory can be used to approve or amend it to be more effective

.Purpose determine the trust and direction of a system input on the other hand is characterized

as the primary element that motivate an action of a system. Meanwhile processes are the
sequences of work stage that transform input to outputs and output is what the system

produces.

CHAPTER II

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES

For further understanding of this study, the researchers conducted an extensive review

of the related literature and studies from books, journal and thesis and discussed the existing

research related to the Comparison of performance in Work Immersion during vacation and

during academic year.

FOREIGN STUDY

Freitas S. (2014) Shanti brings experience from working with study abroad students and

volunteers for three years in Ecuador, as well as leading students on immersion programs in

various countries in Latin America. At UW-Eau. Claire, Shanti Coordinates three immersion

experiences found through Blugold Commitment Faculty-Led international Immersion

Experiences (FLIIE), Domestic Intercultural Immersion (DII) and the International Fellows

Program (IFP)..Schmidkonz Dr. C. (2014) The globalization of the economy has created an

urgent need for business schools to better prepare graduates with the knowledge, skills and

perspective they need in their working lives for a broad understanding of international business

practices. In orderto fulfill this demand, researchers have been focusing among others on how

curriculum could be structed and by whom students should be instructed. Instead, how the

programs should be taught has attracted less attention. Vaughn C.M. (2015) significant health

care disparities exist in the United States. Nurses can play an important role eliminating, these

disparities. International immersion experiences for undergraduate nursing students may

provide long-lasting enhancements in cultural competency and improvements in professional

practices. (Zeytinoglu, 2009).Investment in human capital occurs via formal training in a

structured training environment or can be informal, on –the-job training. In addition, OJT can
also be categorized according to the content as general or company-specific training. Salehi M.

(2009) Training is essential to the growth and economic well-being of a nation. This need for

training pervades all levels of industry, for a national level where a country’s well being in

enhanced by training, to each company where productivity is improved, down to the individual

whose skills are enhanced and as a result improve their position in the workplace.

FOREIGN LITERATURE

Willow Valley Communities (2014) The Willow Valley Work Immersion Program (WIP)

focuses on helping young adults with disabilities make a successful transition from school to

productive adult life. This unique one year immersion program serves students with disabilities

who are in their last year of high school. With the goal of competitive employment, each

students receives classroom instruction and hands-on experience through internship in has as

many as three departments with the willow valley communities. Through their work immersion

experiences, students also develop employability, social, and independent living skills. Work

Immersion Program at Willow Valley Communities (2015)The students, between the ages of 17

and 21, are participating in a unique yearlong Work Immersion Program for young adults with

disabilities. Willow Valley provides a classroom and job training opportunities empowering

students with valuable on the job experiences. Finding viable employment upon graduation from

high school is easier because of skills and experiences obtained through participation in work

immersion. Students work in food service, housekeeping, healthcare, laundry, maintenance, or

landscaping, to name a few. Popovici A. (2016) The key to immersion learning rather than

poring over textbooks and memorizing vocabulary words is being in an environment where you

are exposed to the new language in everyday scenarios, because “you’re forced to learn.” She

said. “It works because that’s the way you learn own language”. Research suggests immersion
learning may be more effective than only learning with more traditional classroom methods

because of how our brains process grammar. Sudesh Sharma (2011) on her article on

“Importance of OJT in Employability” at www.inlead.in highlighted that during the On-the-Job

Training, students can apply the learning’s from academics in the real world. Through this they

would be learning in a practical way and hence would be enhancing their skill sets which are

needed for employability. Through OJT’s students would be getting Exposure (of the real world),

Confidence (of facing real situations) and they would be doing Networking (making contacts) for

themselves. OJT’s would also help them understand what are their real strengths and

weaknesses. Heathfield S.M (2016 ) On-the-job training, also known as OJT, is teaching the

skills, knowledge, and competencies that are needed for employees to perform a specific job

within the workplace and work environment. Employees learn in an environment in which they

will need to practice the knowledge and skills taught in the on-the-job training.On-the-job

training uses the regular or existing workplace tools, machines, documents, equipment,

knowledge, and skills necessary for an employee to learn to effectively perform his or her job.It

occurs within the normal working environment that an employee experiences on the job. It may

occur as the employee performs actual work, or it may occur elsewhere within the workplace

using training rooms, training workstations, or training equipment.

LOCAL LITERATURE

Jaymalin .M. (2017)The TWG will coordinate with the Department of Education (DepEd)

and Technical Educational and skills Development Authority (TESDA) n developing a policy that

ensure the protection and safety of SHS students in implementing the K to 12 work immersion

program. Cruz .I. (2015) The key to Understanding the Technical-Vocational- Livelihood (TVL)

Track of Senior High School is studying the curriculum Guides posted on the website of the

Department of Education (DepEd). If you click Home Economics you will get figures such as

Caregiving (640 hours), Cookery (320 hours) and front office Services (160 hours) Cruz .I.
(2013)Immersion in SHS Will be useless if it is patterned after most of the OJT experiences

currently being undertaken by college students. In order to make Immersion meaningful and

useful, we need to get the companies and not just the schools aware of the educational

objectives and processes of K to 12. Cruz .I. (2015) Work Immersion refers to the part of the

Senior High School (SHS) Curriculum consisting of 80 hours of hands- on experience or work

simulation which the Grades 11 and 12 students will undergo to expose them to the actual work

place setting and to enrich the competencies provided by the school under the supervision of

the School Head and the designated personnel of the Partner “Immersion is done outside the

school campus in a “Workplace Immersion Venue” defined as the place where work immersion

of students is done. Agustin, M. Bautista, O. Cruz. J, et al (2003) Apprenticeship or the on the

job training is usually done after schooling. A graduate in any field of studies needs to show

every skills learned and acquired in school. To be able to put into practice every single learning

acquired, one needs to be performing actual jobs. Various principles are to be observed when

undergoing a training so as to become competent on actual performance and to become

employable when the time comes.

LOCAL STUDY

According to Mary Grace T. Delelis (March 2016 ) she said, Students who go through on-the-job

training are fortunate because they usually take pleasure in learning and adopting new skills

and knowledge. Accountancy students of CSU are given a chance to apply the theories and

computations that they have learned inside the classroom through industry immersion. The

training helps them to acquire appropriate knowledge and skills by performing in real work

situation. It provides them opportunities to go through the actual methodologies of an

accounting job using the real tools, documents and the needed equipments. In effect, various

cooperating agencies and industry partners who are providing opportunities and shared

openhandedly their resources to the accountancy students to have their hands-on training will
become a development place for them to learn more about their future professional endeavors

and perform what they have learned in the school. According to Dr. Romel L. Verecio (March

2014) The on-the-job training program is an immersion program wherein the students will have

the chance and opportunity to be with the IT industry. This program is important because the

students will have the chance to apply the skills, knowledge and attitude learned in the school

and at the same time the opportunity to experience the corporate environment. Learning

expectations in the IT related field should be established between the HEI and the industry in

the form of a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) or Memorandum of Understanding (MOU).

Internship is a requirement for the BS Information Technology program with a minimum of 486

internship hours. Students are eligible to enroll the internship program after completing the 80%

of the total number of units in the curriculum. (CHED Memorandum Order 53. S. 2006).Chavez,

KJ.V et. Al. (Nov, 2016) This study determined the level of student’s academic performance

General Education subjects like English and Mathematics along with the professional subjects.

This also determined their on-the-job training (OJT) performances in relation to their attitudes

and perception towards the job, their job performances, obedience to the policies of company

and their working standards as assessed by their superiors. This serves as a tool to determine

the attitudes and characteristics that graduating students must possess as they get employed

after graduating. Their performance inside the school in terms of their Final Grades in both

General and Professional Education courses served as reference with regards to their

knowledge, understanding and performance during their college studies at the university. The

analysis between their academic performances and their OJT performances indicate how well

and how valuable the knowledge, theories and skills taught, developed, and inculcated while

taking the course which are to be applied in their actual working environment. Chavez-

Bernardo, A. (December 2014 ) Assessment of students’ performance in the workplace is an

important input to the curriculum developers and educators to strengthen the program of study

and to meet the demands of the industries in providing qualified workforce. On the Job Training
(OJT) is one of the mechanics of Higher Education industries in developing the needed

competencies of its graduates. Its goals and objectives served as a guide in developing the

needed competencies for a particular job, and translating the training into a gainful working

experience (Ylagan, 2013).

SYNTHESIS

The study of literature points out that work immersion has been evidence as the preparation to

the students to their OJT “on the job training” as an outcome of work immersion the students

with the intent, to learn, gain, practicing, experience, enhance their knowledge. On the other

hand the instructor’s Teacher, holders get involved in such activities, publicize, the situation.

The work immersion program of the DepEd focuses on helping the students with make a

successful transition from school to productive student’s life. This curriculum is only for the

senior high school, work immersion refers to the pattern after most of the OJT experiences

currently being undertaken by college students. In order to make immersion meaningful &

useful, work immersion it is refer to the part of the Senior High School curriculum that are

consisting of 80 hours that are required to all of the senior high school students (Grade 11 & 12)

the student will some expose to the actual working places. This work immersion is needed the

permission of the guardian or the parents to allowed their child to go and attend the work

immersion that are the requirements for senior high students.
