An Evaluation of the Audio-Visual Media Program of the University of St. La Salle
Researcher: ANNABELLE A. CHAVEZ
Course: Master of Arts in Library Science
School: Centro Escolar University, Manila
Subject Area: Media Center
Year of Graduation: 1996
Research Problem
Educators receive tremendous pressures from different quarters, brought about by the rapid changes in the educational trends, and the advancement of knowledge and technology. Traditional methods and techniques can no longer suffice. To satisfy the need for quality education, instruction incorporated with media and technology facilitates a more effective and experiential learning. It is in this respect that the school’s audio-visual media program should serve not merely to supply materials and resources for instruction, but should form an integral part of the teaching-learning process. There should be a direct involvement of media professionals with the teachers and students in carrying out such programs. The researcher believed that the audio-visual field is closest to technology and is therefore, in the best position to help integrate these mechanisms properly into the instructional process.
Methodology
The study made use of the descriptive normative survey to describe the status of the audio-visual media program of the University of St. La Salle and the evaluative checklist by W.R. Fulton as the main instrument and technique in gathering data.
The subjects of the study were 113 which included the college deans of the five colleges in the university, department heads and only full-time college faculty members for the second semester, 1995-1996.
Findings and Conclusions
1. The commitment of the administration to the media program, to educational media as an integral part of instruction, to providing educational media facilities, to financing educational media and to the staffing of the educational media program was perceived by the respondents as “satisfactory”; however, the school did not have sufficient professional staff members to provide consultative services to the entire faculty.
2. The four aspects of curriculum and instruction, namely: the consultative services in educational media utilization; the media services to educational preparation programs; the faculty/student use of educational media and the involvement of the media staff in planning was considered as “satisfactory.”
3. The respondents perceived the Educational Media Center of the University of St. La Salle as “satisfactory” as to its location and accessibility, the dissemination of media information, the availability of the educational media, the storage and retrieval, the maintenance, and the production of media.
4. The evaluation on budget and finance was interpreted as “satisfactory.”
5. The regular in-service program can help maximize the use of educational media in the classroom by teachers.
6. There is sufficient quantity of media equipment available, however, due to lack of relevant instructional materials for specific subject area, there is only occasional use of the equipment by quite a few faculty members. Improvement along this line was apparent.
