Item Beneath the veil of pedagogy: Exploring the lived experiences of Muslim women teaching Arabic language and Islamic Values Education (ALIVE)Esquivel, Mary Ann C. (Davao del Sur State College, 2025-06)The purpose of this study was to describe and examine the lived experiences of ten female teachers teaching Arabic Language and Islamic Values Education (ALIVE) in Sarangani. The experiences of these teachers were discovered through the utilization of phenomenological study methods, including focus groups and in-depth interviews, with an emphasis on the difficulties, solutions, and inspirations they encountered while teaching. The findings identified four main general themes: (1) Journeying faith-based teaching and leadership adaptable to Muslim societal expectations as an Ustazah (Female Muslim teacher), which highlights the dual role of educators as both teachers and moral guides within the context of Muslim societal values; (2) Complexity of Delivering ALIVE Education Amid Resource Limitations, Logistical Barriers, and Diverse Muslim Students' Needs, which discusses the challenges faced due to limited resources, long commutes, and the varied academic needs of students; (3) Addressing the gap for Resource Limitations, Student Engagements, and Culturally Responsive Teaching, focusing on how teachers creatively engage students and employ culturally relevant teaching strategies to bridge these gaps; and (4) ALIVE education upholds cultural values and fosters growth through resilient Muslim women teachers, emphasizing the resilience and perseverance of these teachers in maintaining cultural integrity and academic standards despite the challenges. The study concludes by underscoring the importance of resourcefulness, community support, and ongoing professional development for these teachers to effectively nurture both the academic and moral growth of their students.Item Indigenous farming practices in selected barangays of Sta. Cruz, Davao del SurAdo, Mariel Abe (Davao del Sur State College, 2024-05)The purpose of this research was to determine the indigenous farming practices of IP's in selected Barangays of Sta. Cruz, Davao del Sur using descriptive analysis. Most indigenous farmers were middle-aged, between the ages of 36 and 50 years old, no formal Education and with small family size, and are generally Bagobo-Tagabawa. Most of them are farmers who are married. They own a marginal-sized farm, and have been farming despite of the lack of training. The majority of indigenous farmers practiced "kammet" or deforestation, in which this activity is done by clearing tall trees and using tools that are made by indigenous peoples. By following these pre-planting practices, farmers were able to make their work less strenuous. In addition, "Bagobo-Tagabawa" is well-known for its root crops and fruit-bearing trees, which give farmers something to eat while they wait for their harvest .Multiple cropping is a traditional indigenous agricultural technique. Some farmers use organic manure, just like animal manure, twigs, and leaves. Farmers also stick to their traditional farming methods, they use sanggot to get rid of weeds. Before they harvest crops, there is a feast known as "Anig" this indigenous practice is typically done to thank God for their bountiful harvest. Neighbors help one another and give a portion of the harvest as payment in kind rather than cash.
