This study examined the effects of using Microsoft Mathematics on students' attitude, conceptual understanding, and procedural skills in Differential Calculus. A quasi-experimental research design was used in which two different learning environments were compared. The participants of the study were two classes of Electrical Engineering students enrolled in Differential Calculus course, assigned randomly as control and experimental groups with 30 students in each group. The control group was taught using the traditional approach of teaching Differential Calculus while the experimental group was taught the same lessons using the Microsoft Mathematics embedded activity sheets. The experimental group learned through exploration and discovery of various concepts. The findings indicated that the participants had little understanding of the concepts and processes of Calculus prior to the conduct of the study. A significant improvement in their performances was noted after the experimentation. This suggests that the use of Microsoft Mathematics in teaching and learning Differential Calculus improves students' conceptual understanding and procedural skills. It is also found that the use of Microsoft Mathematics in teaching and learning calculus is equally effective as the traditional approach. In terms of attitude, the experimental group demonstrated a "favorable" to "very highly favorable" attitude along the five (5) domains of the MTAS. A significant difference exists between the pretest and posttest attitude of the participants on the domain "learning Mathematics with technology".

<span lang="EN-US">The COVID-19 pandemic brought drastic changes in graduate education. One of the most pressing concerns that graduate education students experience is their adjustment to the online learning modality. This study was conducted to determine their self-efficacy in online learning. A descriptive method of research was employed by 147 graduate school students in the Northern Philippines. The findings showed that students have a high level of self-efficacy when it comes to online learning. Despite their struggles and challenges in the online classroom, particularly in social interactions and communication with their classmates and teachers, they are eager to complete their respective degrees since they are confident in their learning management system's use. In addition, their current level of self-efficacy in online learning varies according to their age, occupation, and online courses they were previously enrolled in.</span>

This descriptive and correlational study investigated the effects of using PSPP in learning Statistics on students' attitudes and performance. The respondents of the study were 200 Grade 11 Senior High School students who were enrolled in Probability and Statistics subject during the Second Semester of School Year 2018-2019. The respondents were randomly selected from those classes across the different academic strands that used PSPP in their Probability and Statistics subject through stratified random sampling. The results revealed that the students have favorable attitudes towards learning Statistics with the use of the PSPP software. The students became more interested and engaged in their learning of statistics which resulted to an improved academic performance.

The employability of university graduates is a concern in higher education as labor markets change more and more rapidly. This study assessed the employment status of Business Administration (BA) graduates for the past five years and the skills and competencies acquired in the University from what competencies desired in the industry. The study used descriptive research design and there were 875 BA graduates-respondents. Results of the survey showed that majority of the graduates are employed on a permanent status and were able to get employed for an average of four months after graduation. It also showed that majority works in an industry that is directly aligned to their course or expertise and the learned skills/competencies are valuable and suitable in their jobs. Furthermore, it revealed that communication skills, human skills and decision making skills are the soft skills/competencies that they learned in the University and are useful in their present jobs. Meanwhile, among the Marketing graduates, advertising skills, marketing plan preparation and service/product presentation skills are the top three learned hard skills in the University while among the Finance and Financial Management graduates, their top three are financial report preparation, cash management and technical analysis.
