Abstract:

This study was conducted to compare the reading level based on the assessment to determine the perceived effectiveness level in establishing community learning centers and their views on implementing the CLCs to redesign the project implementation plan. Sequential explanatory of mixed method design was used to complete this action research. The study involved thirty (30) learners as research participants. Specifically, using stratified sampling, ten (10) learners in each Grade level in 4, 5, and 6. The target respondents have undergone focus group discussion through home visitation to gather the needed data through an interview and conduct the PHIL-IRI Test as a reading assessment. Then, documentary analysis was used based on the results for developing the target output. The study found out that although Community Learning Centers were perceived to be effective, the following can be considered for improvement: Establishing CLCs to establish rapport with community members such as parents, youth, LGU, and other stakeholders; CLCs as a venue for material distribution and retrieval; and CLCs to encourage volunteers to assist teachers in the delivery of quality learning instruction to learners. This study implies that CLCs must be the teachers’ and community members’ responsibility. Teachers and School Governance Council should work hand in hand in sustaining the establishment of CLCs in every Sitio.
