Participant 1
Participant 1: I’m a bit stressed, uh, because we were on immersion lately, and then,
actually if you ask me about Practical Research II, mostly our leader will just assign us
our tasks.
(I’m a bit stressed, uh, kay immersion namo, and then, actually, if you ask me about sa
Practical Research II, mostly among leader kay mag assign ra namo sa among
buluhatonon.)
(Unsa man pud ang imong nabuhat sa gipang assign sa imong leader, kuya?)
Participant 1: A lot, like, for example, if we need a revision, mostly, I’ll offer to encode
our research revision, if our leader needs help with the RRL (Review of Related
(Daghan man, like, for example, kung mag revise mi, mostly, mo offer ko na ako ang
mo encode, if our leader kay mangayo og RRL or RRS, mag search mi.)
(If possible, naa man ta sa school, adto sa lab ni ma’am Gem and if dili adto sa balay
Interviewer: Why can’t you always use ma’am Gem’s laboratory to encode?
Participant 1: Because we have school hours, and usually she is busy, sometimes the
lab is full, most of the PC in the lab is not working, and there are a lot of students who
(Because naay school hours man gud, then usahay pud busy si ma’am, usahay pud
puno ang lab, most ang mga PC sa lab is not working, daghan baya og mogamit,
Interviewer: Have you ever encountered a situation where you failed to complete a
(Have you ever encountered a situation where you failed to complete a research
Participant 1: Actually, in our group, no, because I can say that our leader is
responsible, we do not have an experience about being late. We are always on time to
pass our projects. If it’s time to pass, he will talk to us, when he needs help, we don’t
makaingon jud ko, kay wala mi nakasuway nga na late mi. On time mi kanunay
makapass. If ting pass na, mo estorya siya namo, like if needed ni, patabang siya ana
subject?
(In your opinion kuya, how difficult is it to manage time in Practical Research II
subject?)
Participant 1: It’s hard, actually, our research title is related about time management of
students in Grade 10, for me, time management really matters when it comes to doing
activities. And if you have a specific time management that you need to follow, it’ll
become smoother when doing your activities. Like, for example, when you come home
from school, and you’re all done with your assignments, projects. You need to do it
immediately, cause if you don’t, you’ll need it to do it promptly. Then, you’ll be confused
what to do first.
(Lisod, actually, ang title namo is related sa time management of students in Grade 10,
for me talaga mag matter imong time management sa activities nimo. And if you have a
specific time management nga you need to follow, mo smooth jud imong mga
buluhaton. Like, for example, inag uli nimo gikan school, unya mana ka sa imong
assignment, projects. Buhaton na nimo dayon, kay if dili, sa last kay mag kara kara jud
(Uh, imong gi mention ganiha kuya nga, kanang dili ka always maka encode sa ila ka
Participant 1: It depends, luckily in our situation, one of our groupmate have a laptop,
our leader have a PC, I also have one. Our group is abundant when it comes to
resources, but on other groups, I can feel that, in our classmates they are having a hard
time, there are only few of them who have PC, also WiFi, most of the time they’ll just
use the lab to encode our research. It really just depends on the situation.
(Depende ra man, luckily sa among situation, ang among grupo is ang usa ka kauban
namo is naay laptop, ang leader namo naay PC, ako pud. For us nga group, is
nga classmates namo, murag nalisod jud sila, gamay ra ang naay PC nila, also WiFi,
most of the time mag encode sila sa lab. Nakadepende jud sa situation.)
Participant 1: Uhm, if, sometimes, we go to the lab to print, because it’s busy right
now? We’re not the only ones with a thesis, are you too?
(Uhm, if, kasagaran, adto mi sa lab mag print, kay karon busy man karon diba? Not
Interviewer: Yes.
(Oo.)
Participant 1: Oh, so the printer is always busy in the lab. It even broke one time, so
(Oh, so ma busy ang printer didto. One time na naguba gali to, so ang option namo is
(Pero hassle pud nga mag uli uli mo adto sa inyong balay?)
Participant 1: No really, after revising, our leader will just message me online and ask
me to print, like what happened last night, I printed the final revision for our thesis.
(Dili man, after revise, mo chat man ang leader nako nga, parehas gabie nagprint kos
Interviewer: Do you think, uh, if the computers and printers is working properly in our
(Do you think, uh, if nag work properly ang mga computer and printer diri sa school,
Participant 1: Yes, I think. There are only few that are of use, but at least we having
something to use. Last time, there is only one or two printer that’s available. If it’ll break
there is someone who’ll fix it, sir Bill. Last week, I think? Before the immersion, the
(Oo, I think. Gamay ra man gud ang functional, pero at least, naay magamit. Pero ang
printer sad is available isa or duha ra, pag niagi. Kung maguba man gali naa may
moayo sa si sir Bill. Last week man siguro to? Before sa among immersion, naguba
Interviewer: Uh, can I ask this again? I think I asked this earlier in the wrong way. Can
you clarify how the lack of research resources, like computer and printer has affected
(Uh, kanang balikon nako kuya ha? Mura man gud og namali pag ask nako ganiha.
Mahimo ba nimo nga ipaklaro kung unsa ang apekto sa kawad-on sa kagamitan sa
Participant 1: Like, the resources? Uhm, it is difficult, it’s really hard to have access to
a computer, not all are privileged. As much as possible, there must be resources from
the school. If you ask me if it’s difficult? It’s difficult. Because we lived in the 21 st
century, so most of the lessons are encoded, including our thesis, it’s already encoded.
So, if there is no printer and that computer in the school, the process of our thesis will
be very difficult if there are no resources in the school. Thankfully our school has a
computer.
(Like, kadtong mga resources? Uhm, it is difficult, kay lisod baya mangitag computer,
dili baya tanan dato, ang uban di man sad kuan, naay kaya. As much as possible, dapat
jud naay resources gikan sa eskwelahan. Kung pangutan-on ko lisod ba? Kinalisodan
kay we lived in the 21st century na. So, most of the lessons are encoded na, including
our thesis, encoded na jud. So, if, walay printer og kanang computer sa eskwelahan,
lisod jud kaayo ang process sa among thesis if walay resources sa eskwelahan.
(So, uh, last question. Unsa nga pamaagi nimo nasulbad ni nga mga kalisod sa pag
Participant 1: Actually, if you want to follow some kind of time management, a chart,
like, if, because for me, the only thing that can make you fluent in your work is time
management. If you have this, you can be successful, you’ll get the good grades, big
scores in the test, if you have some kind of time management chart that you follow. If
you don’t have that, you will be in trouble. If I may, I’ll just share a little about my
classmate, I don’t want to mention the name, he doesn’t have time management, I can
see, cause he keeps being absent, so, when he comes back, he’ll do things in a rush, it
(Actually, if you want to follow some kind of time management, a chart, like, if, kay for
me jud, ang maka pa fluent sa imong trabaho kay time management. If you have this,
maka kuan jud ka, you’ll get the good grades, dagkog scores sa test, if you have some
kind of time management chart na gi follow nimo. If you don’t have that, anha ka
magkalisod. If I may, mag share lang ko gamay about sa akong classmate, I don’t want
to mention the name, wala siyay time management, I can see, cause sige siya og
absent, so, pagbalik niya anha siya ga kara kara na sa tanan nga activities, galisod na
have errands, to deliver ice to BISU, Bohol High. After that, I need to cook for my
siblings, at exactly, like, before 7:30 I’m already at school. So, I can say, I have time
management.
(Uh, I think so? Actually in the morning, I wake up at 4 or 5 am, kay maghakot pa ko og
ice kay e deliver sa BISU, Bohol High. After that, magluto pa ko sa akong mga
manghud, at exactly, like, before 7:30 naa nako ari. So, I can say, nga naa koy time
management.)
Interviewer: Uh, okay. Do you think that the nature of Practical Research II
(Uh, okay. Do you think that the nature of Practical Research II assignments is too
demanding for students? Akong bisayaon kuya, pagtoo ba nimo nga ang katuyuan sa
Participant 1: In my opinion, maybe for others, but for me, the purpose of research is to
have some kind of background knowledge when time comes, if you pursue college.
Because in college, there are many activities, including research. I can say that our
current thesis is somewhat like a baby thesis, compared to college. You will go to the
field related to your topic, so it will be preparation for big events or in college. So, it is,
(In my opinion, para sa uban siguro, but for me, the purpose of research is to have
some kind of background knowledge when time comes, kung mo pursue mo og college.
Kay sa college, kina daghanan kaayo og activities, including research. I can say na ang
thesis nato karon is somewhat like a baby thesis, compare to college. Moadto jud mo
sa field nga related sa inyong topic, so bali preparation na ni siya for big events or in
college. So, it is, what it is, bitaw. Kung unsay ihatag, mao ra.)
Interviewer: That’s all, thank you for your time and participation!
Participant 2
(Okay ra.)
Participant 2: Happy.
Participant 2: No.
Interviewer: So, what are the challenges that you have encountered in Practical
Research II subject?
(So, kanang unsay challenges nga na encounter nimo sa Practical Research II nga
subject?)
Interviewer: It is pricey?
(Mahal, kuya?)
assignments?
(Kanang sa imong opinyon kuya, unsa kalisod ang pagmando sa oras sa mga Practical
Participant 2: For other assignments, it is more difficult for us to pass a paper that we
have made, there are even times that we can't make a PowerPoint presentation.
(Sa mga uban nga assignments, magalisod mi samot og dika ka pass og papel na
among gigama, moabot usahay ang time nga di kagama PowerPoint presentation.)
(Wala sad, pero adto mi sa kuan eRoom then, naa sad kaugalingon laptop among
Interviewer: Can you explain how the lack of resources of affects your academic
Participant 2: It's delaying our time, there are lots of assignments from another
subjects.
(Kanang makalangan naa pay lain buhaton naa pay lain subject.)
Interviewer: Have you ever encountered a situation where you failed to complete a
research project?
Participant 2: No.
(Wala.)
Participant 2: We sometimes meet the deadline but we still pass our assignments, the
important thing is only the manuscript, but we really need to make a PowerPoint and a
final defense.
(Kuan maabtan mig deadline pero e pass gihapon namo, basta importante kay
defense.)
Interviewer: What's your process in your group, does the leader do all the work? Or do
(Kanang unsay process bitaw ninyo kuya kanang leader ra mo trabaho? Motabang pud
Participant 2: Yes, we can encode our research, but we can also do our divided tasks.
(Oo, pwede man mag encode mi pero pwede sad tunga-tungaon among trabaho.)
Interviewer: So, how do you cope with this academic challenges in Practical Research
subject?
(So, giunsa nimo pagsulbad ni nga mga academic challenges sa Practical Research
nga subject?
Participant 2: We just did the things that should be done, find a laptop and we print it
(Gihimo ang angay mga himuon, kuan mangitag laptop niya magpa print sa gawas
Interviewer: Lastly, do you think that the nature of Practical Research II assignments is
Interviewer: So, that’s all, thank you, for your time. And I would like you to know that we
are the only one who will have access to this audio record and after the research, the
content will be erased. If you wish to have a copy of the abstract of this research, I
would be very willing to send you one. Do you have any questions?
(Bitaw, mao rato, thank you very much kuya, for your time. And I would like you to know
that we are the only one who will have access to this audio record and after the
research, the content will be erased. If you wish to have a copy of the abstract of this
research, I would be very willing to send you one. Do you have any questions kuya?)
Participant 2: No.
(Wala.)
Participant 3
Participant 3: Fine.
Interviewer: How do you feel now that you are about to graduate?
Participant: Excited.
Participant 3: No.
Interviewer: Why do you say so?
Participant 3: There are lots of stress, and we’re problematic about the research
defense.
Participant 3: Yes.
Interviewer: So, what are the challenges that you have encountered in Practical
Research II subject?
Participant 3: Uh, our research is experimental, so, we are having a hard time on our
experiment.
(Kuan, uh, experimental man among research, so, murag naglisod mi sa among
experiment.)
Interviewer: Uh, so, I your experimental research, uh what are your specific problems,
(Uh, so, sa experimental research ninyo, kuya, uh, unsa man inyong mga specific nga
Participant 3: The growth of tilapia in feeds, we are having a hard time because the
(Wala ra man.)
Interviewer: Do you think that the nature of Practical Research II subject is too
Interviewer: Uhm, so, last, how do you cope with these academic challenges that you
(Uhm, so, kuan kuya, last, how do you cope with these academic challenges nga na
Participant 3: For me, it’s not that hard, because I prioritize our research.
(Para nako, dili ra kaayo lisod, kay e prioritize man nako ang research.)
(Okay ra.)
Interviewer: How do you feel now that you are about to graduate?
Participant 4: I feel now that I’m about to graduate, is excited. I’m excited to graduate.
(Ang na feel nako nga padong nako mo graduate, is excited. Excited ko maka
graduate.)
Participant 4: No.
(Dili.)
Interviewer: Why do you find it hard, or, why don’t you find it easy being a graduating
student?
(Ngano nag lisod man ka, or, nganong wala man ka gisayonan sa pagka graduating
student?)
Participant 4: Because now that I’m graduating, we have a lot of projects, it’s like each
(Kay karong graduating nako kay kanang daghang mga project, mga ingana, murag
kanang kada subject tag duha ka performance task anytime pasa nami dayon.)
Interviewer: Okay. This problems, that makes difficult for you to be a Grade 12 student,
(Okay. Kani imong mga problems, kaning nakapalisod sa imong pagka Grade 12 kuya
Interviewer: So, what are the challenges that you have encountered in Practical
Research II subject?
(So, unsa man inyong na encounter nga challenges sa Practical Research II nga
subject?)
(Pwede e specify?)
Participant 4: Because some respondents do not answer at all, they are not clear.
(Kay kanang ang uban nga respondents kay dili mo answer bitaw, kanang way klaro.)
Participant 4: Yes, we are gathering the data with the Grade 10 students.
Interviewer: You mentioned earlier, that you are having a hard time in performance
task, is the major factor affecting this problem, is you lack time?
(Diba ning mention man ka ganiha, nga naglisod ka kay daghan kag mga performance
assignments?
(Sa imong opinyon, unsa kalisod ang pag manage og time in Practical Research II
assignments?)
onon.)
Interviewer: Then, do you always pass your assignments in Practical Research II?
(Unya, maka pass jud ka always sa inyung mga assignments sa Practical Research II?)
Participant 4: Every where. We are having a hard time to use the lab because there
(Bisag asa. Maglisod man mi og gamit sa lab kay daghan og mga grupo.)
Interviewer: Can you explain how the lack of research resources has affected
(Mahimo ba nimo ipaklaro kung unsa ang epekto sa ka kulang sa research resources
(Giunsa nimo siya pag sulbad og na lampos ni nga mga academic challenges?)
Participant 4: By following the task that our group leader gave us.
Interviewer: You mentioned earlier that your way on solving your problems is through
(Na mention nimo ganiha nga ang paagi pud nimo nga nasulbad to ang mga problems
Participant 5
Interviewer: What are the challenges that you have encountered in Practical Research
II subject?
(Unsa ang mga kalisod nga na encounter nimo sa Practical Research II nga subject?)
Participant 5: Uh, yes, it’s really just up to your group mates, then they don’t help you
(Uh, oo, nya naa ra jud na sa imong kauban, nya labi na sa imong kauban nga dili
motabang sa process.)
Interviewer: How do you address the problem of group work and the uneven
paghatag hatag trabaho? Diba, dili man motabang imong mga ubang kauban?)
Participant 5: They really need to help because being a leader is so hard, though I
didn’t have an experience but we can really see them that they are struggling. So, we
(Dapat jud motabang kay lisod baya pud ma leader, wala raba jud ko niagi, pero maka
bantay pud ta nila na naglisod jud. So, dapat jud motabang ta, aron ma successful
Interviewer: So, uh, in your opinion how difficult is it to manage time in Practical
Research II assignments?
(So, uh, sa imong opinyon, unsa kalisod ang pag manage og time sa Practical
Research II assignments?)
Participant 5: Manage?
Participant: Yes, we only pass if it’s on deadline, if the deadline is far, we don’t do the
assignments.
(Oo, anha ra mopasa ug deadline na, layo pa ang deadline, dili mobuhat sa
assignments.)
Participant 5: Yes.
(Oo.)
Participant: It’s not that hard, but, it’s hard when we don’t have internet.
(Dili man kaayu lisod, pero, lisod jud siya ug kanang walay internet bitaw.)
Interviewer: No internet?
(Walay internet?)
Participant 5: But in hard copies, it’s easier because we don’t need to pay.
(Pero sa mga hard copies, sayon ra hinuon kay wala may bayad.)
Interviewer: Uh, so there are some Grade 12 students that we interviewed, their
problem is, they can’t always use it, can you always use it?
(Uh, so kanang naay ubang mga Grade 12 students bitaw na nainterview namo, ilang
Participant 5: Not really, because it’s always busy. Though, the internet really the
problem.
(Dili sad, kay busy man. Pero ang internet jud ang problema.)
(Okay ra.)
Interviewer: Earlier, you mentioned that you procrastinate, how do you cope with that
(Kadto imong gi mention bitaw, te, kadtong mag procrastinate mo, kanang, how do you
Interviewer: Can you explain how the lack of resources in researching affected your
academic achievement sa research subject? The one that I asked you, about the
Participant 6
Interviewer: How do you feel now that you are about to graduate?
Participant 6: Honestly, I am a bit nervous about my future so I think, it’s a halfway of
Participant 6: Uhm, if I would rate it, 50 percent anxious and half excited.
Participant 6: Actually, yeah, I guess, it’s easy for me. Though, we cannot deny the fact
that the process is not easy for all, if you’re a good and responsible student things will
Interviewer: So, it’s easy for you, but did you encounter problems on your way?
(So, easy man para nimo kuya, but did you encounter problems on your way?)
Participant 6: Yeah, basing on my age, I am 20 years old, so, I definitely can say that I
have experience a lot in my age, and it is also expected that there is a lot of problems to
encounter
Interviewer: So there are a lot of problems, right? Can I ask if those problems include
(So, daghan man og problems kuya, no? Can I ask if apil ba ang Practical Research II
II subject?
Participant 6: First is, uh, communication with the members when it comes to
responsibilities and tasks. If you give them a task and they don’t follow your task, like, I
mean, they have a lot of excuses you know, being lazy. They don’t pay attention about
what the leaders might feel. Their time is most likely consumed by their selfishness. You
the communication between the leaders and members are some factors that influence
(First is, uh, communication with the members when it comes to responsibilities and
tasks. If you give them a task and they don’t follow your task, like, I mean, they have a
lot of excuses man gud being lazy. Dili nila pansinon kung unsa ang bation sa leaders.
Ilang time kay most likely consumed na sa ilang selfishness. You as a leader daghan
communication between the leaders and members are some factors nga makaingon
Interviewer: So, how do you address the problem of group work and the uneven
distribution of workload?
Participant 6: Maybe, uh, the first thing you need to know is why they do this and the
reasons why they fail to do the tasks, and also, giving feedbacks and do brainstorming
because that’s what leaders do, we need to understand and listen to our members
opinions.
Interviewer: Have you ever encountered a situation where you failed to complete a
research project?
Participant 6: Yes, a lot. I procrastinate a lot and I’m also one of the people who
experiences personal problems like depression and breakdowns. They are really one of
the factors why I can’t pass research projects on time because that hinders the way you
think and also responsibilities in school. Instead, you can focus on negativity and
sometimes you lose your mind about project deadlines. And I’m also a student leader in
this school, I have a big responsibity as an SSG officer and being a classroom Mayor, is
also a tough thing for me to balance. There are rimes that the schedule is hectic, for
example, there are a lot of projects that are given by the teachers, so, we can’t pass on
time.
(Yes, a lot. I procrastinate a lot and I’m also one of the people who experiences
personal problems like depression and breakdowns. They are really one of the factors
nganong dili ko makapasa sa mga research projects because that hinders that way you
think and mga responsibilities sa school. Anha na hinoon makafocus sa negativity and
sometimes mawala sa imong mind ang deadlines sa projects. And I’m also a student
leader in this school, I have a big responsibity as an SSG officer and being a classroom
Mayor, is also a tough thing for me to balance. There are times nga hectic pud ang mga
schedule na, for example, naay mga projects ang mga teachers na sunod sunod, so,
(Samot pa jud kay student leader pa jud ka, so, in your opinion how difficult is it to
schedule if there are lapses. I guess the first thing is, you need to have an interest with
what you are doing because it is hard to continue when you don’t have enough interest
naa bay lapses. I guess ang pinakauna lang jud is, dapat naa kay interest sa imong
gibuhat because lisod baya e continue when you don’t have enough interest for it. So
Interviewer: So, do you think that the nature of Practical Research II assignments is too
Participant 6: If you have encountered it the first time, or you don’t have any idea or
knowledge about that, for sure, it could be hard and you could think it’s demanding, but
as the times goes on, it would not be a problem for you. So I can think about it, before
face-to-face classes, it’s tough on my part that everything is through online messages.
Actually, I don’t have a high comprehension of, uh, complicated words in English, not all
of them are adopted in my vocabulary, like what they mean. Another reason why it is
tiring is, because of financial status, like, you don’t have WiFi at home, then you run out
of load, you can’t search what that means, if ever the teacher sends a link from a
website that we can watch, it’s very tough on my part that I can’t understand right away,
the links can’t be accessed because there’s no load or something like that. So it was
difficult for me before, as a first timer who encountered a Practical Research subject.
(If you have encountered it the first time, or wala pa kay idea or knowledge about that,
for sure, it could be hard and you could think it’s demanding, but as the times goes on, it
would not be a problem for you. Sauna maka huna huna jud ko nga hasula mani uy,
before face-to-face classes, tough jud sa akoa nga part nga through online messages
ra ang tanan. Actually, dili jud ko taas og comprehension, uh, mga complicated words
nga English, dili tanan nasagop sa akong vocabulary, like unsa iyang meaning. Another
reason nga kapoy siya is, kanang, financial status, like, wala kay WiFi sa inyuha, unya
mahutdan kag load, dili ka ka search unsay meaning ana, ang if ever mag send ang
teacher og link from a website kay aron tan-awn namo, tough kaayo sa part nako nga
dili ko makasabot dayon, dili pa jud ma access ang mga link kay walay load or
something like that. So lisod siya sa part nako sauna, as a first timer nga naka
Interviewer: Uh, can you explain the how the lack of resources has affected you
Participant 6: Uh, okay. That is also a big problem in school if you conduct a research
in school, it’s really the resources especially the computers, printers and the internet.
Those three are the most important if you conduct a research. In school there is lack of
resources but they were able to explain why does that happen, why does this situation
happen. But for me, it is a big factor when we lack resources because internet, printers,
and computers are important because not all of us are privileged to have one of those in
our houses, we’ll just trust the school. If you don’t have those things, it’s hard and, it will
be difficult, and can also cause the students to be rattled and depressed. And there are
times when the teachers don’t understand. Like, they say, “why didn’t you do it at the
right time, I gave you many days to do it” I think that’s a responsibility of a teacher
before conducting Practical Research on a subject they need to make sure that
everything is okay. So that it would not be so harsh for the students to do this. Last year,
the wirings in the school were still okay, but now, it’s getting a bit worse, although the
teachers can’t avoid it because there are students who are abusive and can break
computers.
(Uh, okay. Mao pud na ang dako nga problem sa eskwelahan if mag conduct kag
research, ang mga gamit jud especially the computers, printers, and the internet.
Kanang tulo man jud ang importante kung mag conduct og research. Sa eskwelahan
daghan jud og kulang nga resources but they were able to explain nganong naingana
na siya, nganong naingani ang sitwasyon. But for me, dako jud siya og factors ang
kay dili man kitang tanan naka privilege nga naay mga ingana sa balay, so sa school
nalang ta mosalig. Kung wala na nga mga butanga, maglisod og ma rattle and maka
cause pud siya nga ma depress ang mga students. And there are times nga ang
teachers dili kasabot. Like, mo ana sila, “nganong wala mana nimo gibuhat sa sakto
nga oras, daghan man kog gihatag nga adlaw para buhaton na nimo” I think that’s a
they need to make sure that everything is okay. So that it would not be so harsh for the
students to do this. Last year was okay pa man ang mga wirings sa school but karon,
medyo nagka daot daot na, though dili man sad malikayan na sa mga teachers kay naa
Participant 6: First, uh, the one that I said that you need to have full interest of what
you are doing. Second, take responsibilities like, making your schedule, for smooth and
planned works. Thirdly is, don’t be shy when asking questions that you don’t
understand, ask the teachers, the professionals, if ever you are an introvert or ambivert
don’t close your self in communicating with your classmates because that is one way
that can help you if you have concerns that you can’t express, you can approach them.
(First, uh, kadtong giingon nako nga you need to have a full interest of what you are
doing. Second, take responsibilities like, making your schedule, for smooth and planned
works. Thirdly is, dili pud siguro ta maulaw mangutana, if naa kay mga pangutana nga
wala ka kasabot, ask the teachers jud, sa mga professional, if ever introvert ka or
nimo because usa pud na siya sa way nga makatabang nimo if naa kay mga corcerns
Participant 7: It’s okay. But we are having a hard time because the panelists makes us
repeat our research and our group is already left behind others. So, this is our third
(Okay raman. Pero kanang nag lisod mi anang sige ug balik balik ang panelists kanang
murag kami ra na group ang na ulahi sa gusto sa panelists. So, ika tulo nami nag
Participant 7: No, it’s hard because you need to be really responsible, you need to be
(No, lisod kaayo kay dapat responsible ka kaayo, kanang, dapat on time jud ka mo
pasa sa imong mga projects kay para maka kuha ka ug dakong grado.)
classmates that has line of 7 in their grades because of the absences, then, they are not
(On time man, kanang, ganahan ra pud ko na dakog grado, kay kanang, uban bitaw
naa man koy mga classmates na naay line 7 kay sa absences bitaw then, dili sila on
Interviewer: So another question, is what are the challenges that you are encountered
Participant 7: In the subject? In gathering the data because some respondents doesn’t
cooperate so I don’t like it. We are having a hard time, it’s not easy to gather the data.
It’s really hard because when you really need the data and then they ignore us.
(Unsa man sa subject? Kanang kuan ang pag gather sa data kay ang uban mga
respondents namo kay dili mo cooperate so mao nang dili ko ganahan. Kay mag lisod
mi, dili mi dali maka gather ug data. Lisod oy kanang need na kaayo ang data unya ang
Participant 7: The 4Ps, then, they are rare to participate, it’s really hard.
(Kanang 4Ps, then, rare ra kaayo ang participate, mag lisod na jud.)
not enough. One hour is not enough because there are a lot to do so the time is not
enough.
(Kuan one hour ra siya, one hour ra among research, so lisod siya kay murag dili jud
siya enough time. Kay ang one hour kay dili enough kay daghan man gud kaayog
Participant 7: Yes.
(Oo.)
Participant 7: Yes, but we can’t finish it like it needs to be continued after passing it. It
(O, pero dili kaayo mahuman bitaw like kanang need pa siya e continue inag ka
Interviewer : Why isn’t the time enough? Is it because of making the process and
encoding it?
(Nganong dili man enough ang time? Is it because kanang mga sa pag gama ug sa pag
encode?)
Participant 7 : Yes, that’s it, it depends I think, and the respondents if they are slow so,
(O, kanang mga ingana, depende man siguro na, ug sa mga respondents ug mag
Interviewer: So have you ever encountered a situation when you failed to complete a
research project?
Interviewer: In your opinion, do you think that Practical Research II subject is too hard
(Sa imong opinion, te, ang kani bang Practical Research II na subject is lisod ra kaayo
Participant 7: Hmm… I think it’s okay, because the other graduates made it so far, so,
(Hmm… Okay raman tali siya, kay sa ubang naka graduate na kay nakaya raman nila,
so, makaya ra pud nato kay nakaya raman pud nila, basta e time management lang
nato.)
Interviewer: Then, it’s easy? You said earlier that it’s lack of time so maybe, time
management?
(Then, easy ra siya? Diba ni ingana man ka ganiha na kulang sa time so bali time
management?)
(Yes, dapat jud naa kay time management kay para maka pasa ka.)
Participant 8
Participant 8: Hmm… Happy and at same time, sad, because I’m not ready for college.
(So, kanang kaning mga struggle, apil ba ang Practical Research II nga subject?)
Interviewer: So, what are the challenges that you have encountered in Practical
Participant 8: What is it called again, hahaha, the one that you don’t have things, you
(Kuan, unsay tawag ani oy, hahaha, kanang walay mga gamit bitaw, example, laptop
mga ingana.)
Interviewer: Resources?
Interviewer: Can you explain how the lack of resources like—computer and internet,
Participant 8: Uh, oh, there are some that doesn’t perform the task because…
Interviewer: But there are resources here at school but the students that we
interviewed earlier said that they cannot really use it because there’s just few of it, and
(Pero naa may mga gamit adto but niana kadtong last na interview namo is kanang dili
pud ka gamit ang uban kay gamay ra, unya ang uban pud kay na guba.
Interviewer: Have you ever encountered a situation while you failed to complete a
research project?
Interviewer: So, in your opinion, is this subject too hard for students, the Practical
Research II?
(So, sa imong opinion te, kanang lisod ba kaayo para sa students kini nga subject ang
Participant 8: For me, it’s fine, just work hard, and do it right away so as not to rush
Interviewer: So, it’s time, right? In your opinion again, how difficult is it to manage time
in this subject? The Practical Research II subject? You have a lot to do, right?
(So, sa time no? In your opinion pa jud, how difficult is it to manage time in this subject?
Kaning Practical Research II nga subject? Diba daghan man kag buhaton no.)
(Akoa kay okay ra, basta kay mag kuan lang ka kanang, time management, charr,
hahaha.)
Interviewer: So, how do you cope with those challenges that you mentioned, like the
lack of resources, what did you do to finally make it, because you mentioned that you
(So, kuan how do you cope with the kadtong gipang mention nga mga challenges,
kadtong mga lack of resources, gi unsa man nimo para makagama jud ni nimo nga mga
project, kay nag mention man ka nga wala jud ka naka miss ug projects?)
Participant 8: You need to find ways to do it, go to the computer shop even though
(Mangitag paagi lang jud para mabuhat, modung ka sa computer shop ingana bisag
Participant 8: Yes.
Participant 9
Participant 9: I feel happy and then, I am almost in college, it’ll be a new journey.
Interviewer: So, there are struggles, is Practical Research II subject included with
these?
(So, naa may mga struggle, kuya, apil ba ang Practical Research II nga subject ani?)
Interviewer: What are the challenges or struggles that have you encountered in
Participant 9: It’s the same answer as my group mate earlier, we are group mates, still
lack of resources.
(Same sa tubag sa akong ka grupo ganiha, ka grupo man mi, lack of resources
gihapon.)
Interviewer: E explain ang lack of resources sa pagka apekto bitaw sa inyong, kuan,
uh, study.
(Explain how the lack of resources has affected in your, uh, study.)
Participant 9: For example, in our group we don’t have anyone who have a laptop. We
don’t have a laptop and that’s our problem, then like, printer too.
(For example, kanang laptop, wala man sa among ka grupo ang naay laptop. Wala mi
Interviewer: Yes or our classmates who have a laptop, we borrow from them.
Interviewer: So, you borrow from your classmates? It’s so time consuming when you
borrow someone else’s because you don’t have any, then in our school, you can’t
mog laptop kay wala man moy laptop, then diri pud sa atung eskwelahan kay, di pud
usahay makagamit.
Interviewer: Have you ever encountered a situation where you failed to complete on
research project?
Participant 9: No.
(Wala.)
Interviewer: In your opinion, how difficult is it to manage time in Practical Research II?
(Sa imong opinyon, kuya, how difficult is it to manage time to Practical Research II?)
Participant 9: It is very difficult, because there are times when it really gets mixed up,
(Very difficult siya, kay naay times nga magsagol man gud, naay mga problems, tas
computer shop.
shop.)
Interviewer: Uh, so thank you for your time! Thank you very much.
Participant 10
Interviewer: How do you feel now that you are about to graduate?
Participant 10: It’s like I’m a little nervous because we still have a defense, is that the
same and will we fight like it’s going to be difficult as long as it’s graduation, hahaha.
(Murag kuan medyo kulba kay naa pa mi defense pud amoa ba mao na baw ug
Participant 10: It seems not, there are a lot of paper works and there are still
(Murag dili, daghan mga paper works and naa pay mga immersion, dili jud.)
Interviewer: So, is Practical Research II included in this, which makes it more difficult
(So, apil ba ang Practical Research II ani nga nakapadugang ug kalisod sa pagka
Participant 10: It is one that has added a lot of pressure if we will be able to graduate
or not. Hahaha.
(Isa jud nga nakadugang ug daghan nga pressure ug maka graduate ba or dili.
Hahaha.)
Interviewer: So, what are the challenges that you have encountered in Practical
Research II subject?
Participant 10: Challenge? What are the challenges? Maybe, if you add a topic, and
that, your research study is very reliable, it seems like you should add a thesis that has
kanang, inyong research study is reliable kaayo bitaw like murag dapat mag add jud ka
ug kanang thesis nga naay gamit og significant, mao pay challenge sa amoa.)
Participant 10: Yes, a research topic that seems to be useful, not just an insincere
research.
(O, research topic nga mas kuan jud siya kanang murag naay gamit dili kay research
research ra.)
Interviewer: Is that all of your challenges? How about the resources here at school?
(Mao rana inyong challenges? How about sa resources bitaw diri sa eskwelahan?)
Participant 10: The resources are okay, our thesis is experimental about chicken feeds.
(Ang resources kay okay raman, amoa kay experimental man amoa, about sa chicken
(Maggama ug feeds?)
Participant 10: Yes, our own organic but the formulation is the challenge if the chicken
(O, amoang kaugalingon organic pero kanang formulation murag ang challenge kay
Participant 10: Yes, it adapted, we still didn’t finalize if there are difference in
(Oo, mi adapt man sad, wala pami ka finalize ug naa bay difference ug kanang sa
Interviewer: So far, you don’t have any problems with your research?
(So far, wala moy kanang unsa na oy kana bitawng problem about sa inyong
research?)
Interviewer: In your opinion, how difficult is it to manage time in Practical Research II?
For example, in your thesis now, if you don’t relate the difference between the
(In your opinion te, how difficult is it to manage time in Practical Research II? Tingali
kanang inyong thesis karon if dili pamo ka relate ug difference sa kato commercial ug
Participant 10: No, because we need spend more time to formulate our conclusion,
then we have classes, then we have to encode with the thesis, we will still make our
formulation.
(Dili, kay samot nag maggahin pa mi og time nga mag formulate sa amoang conclusion,
unya naa pay klase, unya naa pay encode sabay sa thesis, himoon pa jud amoang
formulation.)
Interviewer: That experiment of yours, about the chicken, where do you experiment? In
another house?
(Kana bitawng experiment ninyo te, about sa chicken, asa mo mag experiment? Sa lain
nga balay?)
Interviewer: So, you need to go to that house? How many chicken did you experiment?
(So, moadto pamo tanang grupo nga adto sa balay? Pila ka chicken inyong e
experiment?)
Interviewer: So, it’s okay for you, you go to your classmate’s house from school, is it
(So, okay ra para nimo te, kanang from school mo adto mo sa balay sa inyong
Participant 10: Sometimes it’s tiring, especially on weekends, instead of doing chores
at home, you’ll prioritize that go with our group for our thesis.
(Panagsa kay kapoy, kay labi na kay weekends, nga kanang imbis kay murag kanang
naa sa balay maghimo ka og chores, e prioritize jud nimo kanang modung mis among
Interviewer: So, have you ever encountered a situation were you failed to complete
research project?
Participant 10: Yes, our chapter one and chapter two are completely wrong, hahaha,
we keep searching for related studies and then everything is completely wrong because
it seems that the panelists will not accept it, we have to revise a lot.
(O, kadtong amoang mga chapter one ug chapter two puro mali, hahaha mag sige
namig pang search ug mga related studies unya puro jud wrong tanan kay murag dili
Interviewer: Then all of you are stressed about that burden? Not the only leader?
(Unya ang na stress ra ato nga burden is kamo jud tanan? Dili ra ang leader?)
Interviewer: So, how do you address the problem of group work and uneven
distribution of workload?
Participant 10: Last time, it was third grading, I kicked them out of the group, then they
failed, this grading they participate, because it’s getting worse because they’re
graduating, now there are doing the because they’re graduating, I challenged them that
if they don’t help then can only accept seventy-five and I always leave them because
(Last time, kay last third grading kay akoa jud silang gitaktak sa grupo, unya na fail sila,
unya mao karon nga grading mo participate na sila, kay samot na nga graduating,
karon pa sila nang lihok kay graduating naman, ako ra silang gi challenge nga maka
dawat ra silag seventy-five na lagi ako man silang giwala kay di man sila motabang.)
Participant 10: Just think about it, my goal is to graduate, so I have to comply so that
(Kuan nalang, huna hunaon nalang akong goal is maka graduate so dapat jud nako e
Interviewer: So, you said that, the part about chapter one and chapter two not being
(So, miingon man ka nga ate diba, ato bitawng inyong chapter one and chapter two nga
Participant 10: We did it again for two times and now we pass it for checking, I don’t
know if it will be accepted, I think in data gathering we are revising twice or thrice.
(Kaduha siguro mi ga utro niya so far karon murag magpa check pami, baw ug kanang
Interviewer: So, it’s also time management, you did it fast because you are managing
you’re time.
(So, time management kay inyo man gipaspasan kay inyong gi manage inyong time.)
Interviewer: That is all, thank you for participating and for your time.
Participant 11
Interview: How do you feel now that you are about to graduate?
Interviewer: Why?
Participant 11: Because we are not sure if we can pass our research.
Interviewer: Why?
(Ngano man?)
Participant 11: Because there are a lot of projects then you can’t do all of it because
(Kay kanang daghan kaayog daghang projects then dili nimo makaya kay ikaw ra isa
magbuhat.)
Interviewer: So these problems about you being a graduating student, is the Practical
(So kani nga mga problems about sa imong pagka graduating student, apil ba ang
(Oo, apil)
Interviewer: So what are the challenges that you have encountered in Practical
Research II subject?
(Challenges? Kapoy…)
Participant 11: I am the only one who’ll do all the work, hehe, just me, because my
(Ako raman sad isa maghimo, hehe, ako ra, kay akong mga kauban kay kanang
Interviewer: So, you are an encoder? What are the problems that you have
encountered in encoding?
(So, tig encode ka? Unsa may problem na imong na encounter nga sa imong pag
encode?)
Participant 11: We don’t have our own laptop, no internet too, that’s all.
Interviewer: How about printer, don’t you have a problem with printing
Interviewer: So, can you explain how the lack of resources has affected your academic
(Kanang, mahimo ba nimo ipaklaro kung unsa ang apekto sa imong academic
Interviewer: Do you think that the big factor that affects is your time management?
(Do you think kanang dako pud ug factor nga ang nakaapekto sa inyong time
Participant 11: I can’t really say that it’s big because nevermind hahaha, it’s not really
time consuming but the task is unprogressive because our group mates doesn’t
(Dili ko makaingon nga dako kay basta hahaha, dili man sa ingun nga makakuan siyag
time sadyang kanang dili lang jud ma malihok di man mo lihok ang uban, kana nga mao
Interviewer: So how do you address the problem of group work and the uneven
Participant 11: Yes, it’s all on me, all mine, even though it’s not my task, I’ll take it.
(O, akoa nalang tanan akoa nalang tanan bisag di akoa, ako nalang)
Interviewer: How do you cope with these challenges—the one that you mentioned
earlier like no internet, no laptop, no printer, how did you do the research project that
you completed?
(How do you cope with these challenges—katong imong gi mention bitaw na kadtong
wala ang internet, way laptop, way printer, giunsa man nimo pagbuhat ang mga
Participant 11: Just write it all down and that’s it… Hahaha.
(Hehe, kuan isuwat una tanan kuan nimo then mao to… Hahaha.)
(Unya, kanang, adto nalang sa printing shop magpaprint, mag encode or dili ra?
Interviewer: Then, that is all, thank you very much for your time and participation!
Participant 12
(Ok lang.)
Participant 12: Feeling excited and then I don’t know if I will, because there are a lot of
problems.
(Feeling excited and then I don’t know if I will, kay daghan gyud og problema.)
(So, kani nga mga challenges apil ba ang Practical Research II nga subject?)
II?
Participant 12: First, I find it hard to analyze the methodologies and lessons. Second, I
find it hard to understand the whole thing. Third, I don’t know hahaha… It’s really hard.
(First, ana maglisod og sabot sa mga methodologies og mga lesson pud. Second,
murag dili pa bitaw ka kasabot anan butanga. Third, I don’t know hahaha… Basta kay
Interviewer: Do you think that the nature of Practical Research is too demanding for
students?
Participant 12: No, it’s just right because we can use it for the future.
Interviewer: How do you cope with these challenges, the one that you mentioned
earlier?
(How do you cope with these challenges, kadtong gipang mention nimo ganiha?)
Participant 12: You just need to put on hard work and team work, that’s all.
Interviewer: How do you feel now that you are about to graduate?
Interviewer: Why?
Participant 13: Apart from challenging Grade 12, you must manage your time, control
your self, because sometimes we don’t understand ourselves. Because if you can’t
control it, you won’t be able to handle it, you won’t be able to understand your
(Gawas sa challenging ang Grade 12, dapat jud nimo e manage imong time, e control
nimo imong self, naa man jud na kay sometimes sa atong kaugalingon dili nata
kasabot. Kay kung dili nimo ma control, dili na nimo kayahon, dili naka makasabot sa
(So, kani nga mga kalisod, te, apil ba ang Practical Research II nga subject ani?
Participant 13: Yes, if I were to say, of all the subjects in Grade 12, Practical Research
is the most difficult. As long as in the beginning, it’s the same as in chapter 1, it is easy,
but those chapters 2, 3 and so on. It’s very difficult because the person who checks our
products is very strict. And a small mistake will change a lot. Because no matter how
(O, kung ako pasultion, sa tanan nga subject sa Grade 12, ang Practical Research ang
pinakalisod. Basta kinaunhan, pareha anang chapter 1 madala ra man siya, pero
kanang mga chapter 2, 3 and so on. Lisod kaayo kay higpit bitaw ang tig check sa
among mga gigama, dili na sad siya basta basta, kanang mga words nga panggamiton
dili na simple. Ug gamay nga sayop dako ang usbunon. Kay bisan unsa kagamay sa
Interviewer: So, what are the challenges that you have encountered in Practical
Research II subject?
Participant 13: It will be difficult for me to do my part, because if you don’t understand
the discussion and the research, you won’t know how to do your part.
project?
Participant 13: It’s not like we failed, it’s just that we were busy with other subjects. For
example, ma’am says we need to submit the projects, then that’s when we go to work.
Fast forward, we will act when a deadline is set. But we could pass then. So it seems
like we are procrastinating. There are many subjects in Grade 12, not just Practical
Research.
(Dili man ingon nga failed jud, kuan lang, na busy bitaw mi sa uban nga subjects.
Pananglitan moingon si ma’am nga e pass na na, anha pami maggama. Pinaspasay
bitaw, anha nami molihok if mag set na og deadline. Pero maka pass noon mi. So
murag nag procrastinate mi. Daghan pa man gud subject sa Grade 12, dili ra baya
Practical Research.)
Participant 13: It’s super difficult, research is not the only thing we spend our time on. It
is difficult for us because the time given here at school is not enough. Then I’m not
(Super lisod jud, dili ra man jud research ang among gahinan sa among time no. Lisod
siya kay kuwang ang time nga gihatag diri sa school. Unya ako kay dili ko sugtan
maglakaw lakaw sa balay sa among classmate king mag research so, anhi ra jud ko sa
Participant 13: Yes, it is also the reason why we are delayed. Isn’t research also
includes a lot of printings, but, us student like stuffs for free, but the printer in the
research lab is broken. We are the only ones who provide sometimes we just have to
wait because we don’t have money so we are delayed again. Only our leader goes to
(Oo, samot na siya makadugay og samot. Diba ang research man jud kay daghan
mana og print print, unya kita kay ganahan ra ba ta og free, pero guba man ang printer
diara sa research lab. Kami nalang ang mo provide usahay magpaabot nalang pud mi
kay walay kwarta maong malangay mi. Among leader nalang ang moadto sa computer
shop usahay.)
Participant 13: Uh, team work, go to a computer shop to print, encode, we’ll just find
(Uh, tinabangay, moadto og computer shop para makapa print, encode, mangita nalang
Interviewer: That is all, thank you very much for you cooperation.
Participant 14
(Okay lang.)
Interviewer: How do you feel now that you are about to graduate?
Participant 14: Maybe it’s nothing, it’s just underwhelming because you’re expecting
more, so, it feels like every other day. First is excited to graduate. These days are hectic
(Siguro wala ra, murag underwhelming bitaw kay you’re expecting more, so, it feels like
every other day lang sad. First is excited jud nga maka graduate na. This days are
hectic jud kay pag immersion, and now we have to fulfill our research.)
Participant 14: I think it’s in between, like, so-so? It’s hard but you can do it especially if
subject?
Participant 14: Regarding our experience, we are currently in data analysis, maybe the
availability of the teachers, because they are not always available, so that’s a challenge.
Another is, you know, materials, like when you need a laptop, if you don’t have things
like resources and materials, if you don’t have things, that could be a challenge.
(Regarding about our experience, we are currently in data analysis, siguro the
availability sa mga teachers, kay dili baya sila always available, so that’s a challenge.
Another is, you know, materials, like when you need laptop, if wala kay mga ingana like
resources and materials, if wala kay mga ingana, that could be a challenge.)
Interviewer: Can you explain how the lack of resources has affected your academic
Participant 14: Of course, if you don’t have resources, it seems like you will be
prevented from doing your research, unless you find a way like borrowing, it is a factor
(Of course, kung wala kay resources is, murag, mapugngan bitaw sa paghimo sa imong
research, unless pangitaan nimo og way like manghulam ka, factor jud siya para
subject?
Participant 14: For me it is not really that hard to manage time, because there is time
that ma’am will also give for research. Every Friday is research time.
(For me it is not really that hard to manage time, because there are time na ihatag man
Participant 14: You’ll need to find a way. And since we have a computer lab you can
utilize it. And if you don’t have any resources you can borrow. So, finding a way will
really help.
