    CHAPTER I

    THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND

    INTRODUCTION

    Through the recommendation of the Philippine Association of Educators in Office

    Administration (PAEOA), formerly Philippine Association of Secretarial Educators

    (PASE), and the approval of the Commission on Higher Education (CHED), the College

    of Secretarial Administration in now known as the College of Office Administration.

    It aims to educate students with the fundamental principles, knowledge, skills,

    and values required in the practice of Office Administration through a systematic and

    updated curricula and progressive and creative methods of instruction.

    Students of this course are taught basic business principles, computer

    fundamentals, techniques to personality development, and other relevant general

    scientific and artistic knowledge that will prepare them for entry level jobs in office

    management.

    Completion of the two-year program of this course will earn the student a title

    "Associate in Office Administration". A graduate of Associate in Office Administration is

    eventually qualified to take the additional units needed to complete a four-year course

    leading to a degree in Bachelor of Science in Office Administration.

    Background of the Study

    The year was 1978. Amable R. Aguiluz V., fourth son and namesake of Amable

    M. Aguiluz (1913-1977) who was the former Auditor General during the Macapagal

    administration, formed a distributorship in Manila for "Computerland". The firm became

    one of the main distributors of Apple Computer in the Philippines. It became one of the

    venues by which advancements made in Computer Science and Technology was

    absorbed in the Philippine industrial life.

    Due to the Filipinos' deep hunger for computer education, AMAICS founder

    Amable M. Aguiluz opened AMA Computer College(AMACC) the center for degree

    courses, and years later AMA Computer Learning Center (ACLC) started its operation in

    June 1987, but it was in the year 1990 that expansion took place. In the year 1991

    ACLC has grown in number with 18 branches in full operation nationwide, from four

    during the previous year.

    A. School Philosophy and Mission

    The educational philosophy of AMA Computer Learning Center (ACLC) rests on

    its commitment to be of service to students through the provision of an environment

    where there would be opportunities to relate theories and knowledge to practical

    training. The Center focuses the students to a life and future integrated with the real

    working world.

    With this theory in Education, ACLC then dedicates itself to the molding of future

    professionals in attaining a dream, to take an active role in the education and training of

    the students through continous innovation of education program and evaluation of

    industry needs.

    Theoretical Framework

    The importance of education is quite clear. Education is the knowledge of putting

    one's potentials to maximum use. One can safely say that a human being is not in the

    proper sense till he is educated.

    This importance of education is basically for two reasons. The first is that the

    training of a human mind is not complete without education. Education makes man a

    right thinker. It tells man how to think and how to make decision.

    The second reason for the importance of education is that only through the

    attainment of education, man is enabled to receive information from the external world;

    to acquaint himself with past history and receive all necessary information regarding the

    present. Without education, man is as though in a closed room and with education he

    finds himself in a room with all its windows open towards outside world.

    Today there many campaigns aimed at promoting the importance of completing

    college. The government has created laws to insure that the students must attend

    school until they are of a certain age. However despite these efforts, many people will

    not receive their high school diploma.

    Sometimes it is difficult to see the exact value of your education. However

    finishing high school is an asset that everyone with the opportunity should take full

    advantage of. Just finishing high school alone opens up thousands more opportunities

    for individuals. When entering a specific field within the job market, it is often required

    that the applicant has a high school diploma. Therefore, many times without the high

  • 7/27/2019 Reviewing the Program Curriculum

    7/43

    school diploma, a person is restricted to a smaller number of occupations for which they

    are qualified for.

    College teaches students to learn. It gives them a background in many different

    subjects and methods of learning. learning how to read at a young age will allow the

    student to be able to learn through reading books for the rest of their lives. Reading,

    writing , simple mathematics and an understanding of how the world works are all very

    important skills for a person who is living in our world today.

    A college education opens up opportunities for people. It gives student the

    experience and the confidence that they will be able to use in many life situations.

    Attending high school gives students opportunities to express themselves and to learn

    about other people and their ideas. Having the knowledge obtained in high school often

    gives people confidence later in life when they are dealing with the public. It can give a

    person confidence in the way that they view their abilities later in life.

    Education encompasses teaching and learning specific skills, and also

    something less tangible but more profound: the imparting of knowledge, positive

    judgment and well-developed wisdom. Education has as one of its fundamental aspects

    the imparting of culture from generation to generation (see socialization). Education

    means 'to draw out', facilitating realisation of self-potential and latent talents of an

    individual. It is an application of pedagogy, a body of theoretical and applied research

    relating to teaching and learning and draws on many disciplines such as psychology,

    philosophy, computer science, linguistics, neuroscience, sociology and anthropology.

    The education of an individual human begins at birth and continues throughout

    life. (Some believe that education begins even before birth, as evidenced by some

    parents' playing music or reading to the baby in the womb in the hope it will influence

    the child's development.) For some, the struggles and triumphs of daily life provide far

    more instruction than does formal schooling (thus Mark Twain's admonition to "never let

    school interfere with your education"). Family members may have a profound

    educational effect often more profound than they realize though family teaching

    may function very informally.

    Hypothesis of the study

    One's individual development and the capacity to fulfill one's own purposes can

    depend on an adequate preparation in childhood. Education can thus attempt to give a

    firm foundation for the achievement of personal fulfillment. The better the foundation

    that is built, the more successful the child will be. Simple basics in education can carry a

    child far. And thus, parents is greatest influence to every childs dream and they can

    affect and command their children to what they want to take up in college.

    And thus this research proves that there is a significant relationship between the

    childrens choice of course from their parents choice of course for their children.

    CHAPTER II

    REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE

    RELATED LITERATURE

    While a college degree is not always necessary to become an office

    administrator, an associate's degree will certainly open up a wide range of career

    opportunities. Graduates of an associate's degree program in office administration often

    pursue careers as office managers, executive assistants and medical or legal

    secretaries.

    Other than certificate programs, an associate's degree is the most commonly

    earned degree that leads to a career in office administration. Students of this two-year

    degree program learn important skills, such as basic accounting, computer applications,

    communication skills, document preparation and office procedures and ethics.

    Coursework and real-world opportunities will focus heavily on computer training and

    other office technologies, including the commonly used software applications

    QuickBooks, Microsoft Office and desktop publishing software.

    Students seeking employment in a medical or legal office may also choose

    electives that target skills that are unique to these areas. In preparation for a career as

    an executive assistant or office manager, students may learn the basics of appointment

    scheduling, making travel arrangements, proofreading and managing records. It is

    important that students pursuing a career in office administration are able to keep pace

    in a busy office environment and adapt to constantly changing technology.

    Conceptual literature

    In some ways, Associate in Business Administration has finally achieved the

    Enlightenment aspiration to create a logic of uncertainty. Statistical tools are at work in

    almost every area of life, including agriculture, business, engineering, medicine, law,

    regulation, and social policy, as well as in the physical, biological, and social sciences

    and even in parts of the academic humanities. The replacement of human computers

    with mechanical and then electronic ones in the 20th century greatly lightened the

    immense burdens of calculation that statistical analysis once required. Statistical tests

    are used to assess whether observed results, such as increased harvests where

    fertilizer is applied, or improved earnings where early childhood education is provided,

    give reasonable assurance of causation, rather than merely random fluctuations.

    Following World War II, these significance levels virtually came to define an acceptable

    result in some of the sciences and also in policy applications.

    From about 1930 there grew up in Britain and Americaand a bit later in other

    countriesa profession of statisticians, experts in inference, who defined standards of

    experimentation as well as methods of analysis in many fields. To be sure, Associate in

    Business Administration in the various disciplines retained a fair degree of specificity.

    There were also divergent schools of statisticians, who disagreed, often vehemently, on

    some issues of fundamental importance. Fisher was highly critical of Pearson; Neyman

    and Egon Pearson, while unsympathetic to father Karl's methods, disagreed also with

    Fisher's. Under the banner of Bayesianism appeared yet another school, which, against

    its predecessors, emphasized the need for subjective assessments of prior probabilities.

    19/43

    The most immoderate ambitions for Associate in Business Administration as the royal

    road to scientific inference depended on unacknowledged compromises that ignored or

    dismissed these disputes. Despite them, Associate in Business Administration has

    thrived as a somewhat heterogeneous but powerful set of tools, methods, and forms of

    expertise that continues to regulate the acquisition and interpretation of quantitative

    data.

    Synthesis

    Education is a social science that encompasses teaching and learning specific

    knowledge, beliefs, and skills. Licensed and practicing teachers in the field use a variety

    of methods and materials in order to impart a curriculum. There has been a plethora of

    journals, magazines, books, and digests in the field of education that addresses these

    areas. Such literature addresses the teaching practices, with subjects that include

    lectures, game playing, testing, scheduling, record keeping, bullying, seating

    arrangements, interests, motivation, and computer access. However, the most

    important factors in any teacher's effectiveness is the interaction with students and

    personality of the teacher.

    The quality of their relationships provides the impetus for inspiration. The best

    teachers are able to translate good judgment, experience, and wisdom into the art of

    communication that students find compelling. It is their ability to understand and

    overcome prejudices, generate passion, and recognize potential that enable teachers to

    invigorate students with higher expectations of themselves and society at large. The

    goal is aiding the growth of students so that they become productive members of a

    migratory society. An imparting of culture from generation to generation promotes a

    greater awareness and responsiveness through social maturity to the needs of an

    increasingly diversified global society.

    Education in the Philippines has undergone several stages of development from

    the pre-Spanish times to the present. In meeting the needs of the society, education

    serves as focus of emphases/priorities of the leadership at certain periods/epochs in our

  • 7/27/2019 Reviewing the Program Curriculum

    24/43

    national struggle as a race. It is widely accepted that the process of education begins at

    birth and continues throughout life. Some believe that education begins even earlier

    than this, as evidenced by some parents' playing music or reading to the baby in the

    womb in the hope it will influence the child's development.

    Education is often used to refer solely to formal education (see below). However,

    it covers a range of experiences, from formal learning to the building of understanding

    through day to day experiences. Ultimately, all that we experience serves as a form of

    education.

    Individuals receive informal education from a variety of sources. Family members

    and mass media have a strong influence on the informal education of the individual.

    Parental involvement is a neccesary thing when it comes to a child's educational

    development. Early and consistent parental involvement in the child's life is critical such

    as reading to children at an early age, teaching patterns, interpersonal communication

    skills, exposing them to diverse cultures and the community around them, educating

    them on a healthy lifestyle, etc. The socialization and academic education of a child are

    aided by the involvement of the student, parent(s), teachers, and others in the

    community and extended family.
