Abstract:

The primary purpose of the study was to determine if academic achievement of education graduates of University of Mindanao from SY 2003-2006 re1ates to their performance in the Licensure Examination for Teachers (LET) and, on the basis of the findings of the study, to design a pre-service instructional framework that would lead towards LET performance improvement. Using descriptive correlation method with the mean, F-ratio, and Pearson r as statistical tools, the findings revealed that academic achievement has a significant relationship to LET performance. The adoption of the proposed strategic instructional framework is strongly suggested to improve teaching performance and student academic achievement by identifying the contributing factors to student success and failure in achieving the target LET performance level.
