This study assessed the extent to which faculty and staff at schools in the Lucena Diocese Catholic Schools Association manifested skills related to research. A survey was given to 564 faculty and staff across 20 schools to evaluate components like teamwork, career management, research techniques, communication skills and research management. These components were found to be manifested to a moderate extent based on their average ratings. However, when compared to quality assurance standards, all components were considered weaknesses, indicating room for improvement in research skills. Therefore, while basic research skills were shown, further enhancement is still needed based on the findings.

Extent of the Manifestation of Skills Related to Research Among
Faculty and Staff of LUDICSA Schools
Dr. Joy D. Talens Former Director, Research and Development Sacred Heart College Lucena City Quezon Province This study was aimed to assess the extent to of the manifestation of skills rela ted to research among faculty members of LUDICSA schools. Using the descriptiv e - survey method with application of the Provus Discrepancy Evaluation Model of research, this study involved 564 faculty members and staff of 20 member school s of Lucena Diocese Catholic Schools Association (LUDICSA) during the School Yea r 2008 â 2009. Data and other information needed in this study were gathered mainl y through questionnaires. The mean for each item was computed along with the ave rage mean for the given component. The discrepancy between obtained mean for ea ch item for a given component and the standard which was set at four was obtaine d. Research components and their indicators which were assessed with a compute d mean rating of less than 4 were considered the weaknesses of the program. Th is is in accordance with the principles of quality assurance, i.e., programâ s compon ents that are rated highly by stakeholders are considered acceptable or indicato rs of programâ s effectiveness (Daft, 1998). The following components of skills related to research were assessed by the part icipants of the study as â manifested to a moderate extentâ . Based on ranking, the fol owing were the results: team working and networking, personal effectiveness, car eer management; research skills and techniques; research environment; communicat ion skills; and research management. When TQM or TQA was applied, all the compo nents of research skills were considered as weak. These are: team working and networking; career management; research skills and techniques; research environm ent; communication skills; and research management. There are no significant re lationships existing between and among the extent of manifestation of each compo nent of skills related to research among faculty members and staff of LUDICSA sc hools. Based on the findings of this study, it is safe to conclude that the fac ulty members and staff of LUDICSA schools have already manifested the various co mponents of research skills, which have been shown to have been â manifested to a mod erate extentâ . Moreover, since the findings also show that there have been gaps id entified in the assessment when compared to the standards of the Total Quality A ssurance (TQA), it can also be concluded that research skills can still be furth er enhanced.
