Abstract

The teaching experiences of the field-based implementers of the K to 12 program along with the different subject areas and grade levels can be considered as strong bases in evaluating its successful implementation. One of the subject areas in the K to 12 curriculum is MAPEH which is coined based on its component areas such as Music, Art, Physical Education, and Health. A study on the status of MAPEH teachers in Leyte Division was conducted to determine the personal and teaching profile of the high school MAPEH teachers, their training needs, and problems encountered in teaching the subject. The study was based on three theories such as evaluation theory, program theory, and systems approach theory. It utilized a descriptive research method with a survey tool as means to gather data. The study had identified that most teachers are female, married, between 26-35 years old, with 0-5 number years of experience in teaching MAPEH and most of them are bachelor?s degree holders. It also found that high school MAPEH teachers need training on competencies across the components areas of MAPEH and are experiencing problems in teaching MAPEH, particularly on lack of teaching resources such as contextualized materials among others, lack of content pedagogical knowledge, and learners? lack of interest in some learning activities. The results of the study served as a basis in recommending some actions and innovations to improve the implementation of the high school MAPEH curriculum of the K to 12 program.
