The teaching strategies of millennial teachers in the elementary schools of tabaco city

The study explored the teaching strategies employed by millennial teachers in the elementary schools of Tabaco City, focusing on their usage levels and associated challenges. It specifically examined ten key strategies: integrative, experiential, collaborative, gamification, constructivism, inquiry-based, problem-based, blended teaching, personalized teaching, and technology integration. Using a descriptive-survey design, the research gathered data from 240 millennial teachers across the division. Statistical tools such as frequency count, percentage, weighted mean, and ranking were applied to analyze the responses. Results revealed varying levels of usage across strategies, with technology integration and collaborative learning ranking highest, while personalized and problem-based approaches showed moderate application. Challenges encountered included limited resources, lack of training, time constraints, and varying learner readiness. These barriers affected the consistent implementation of innovative strategies, particularly those requiring digital tools or individualized instruction. To address these issues, the study proposed a structured plan for a community of practice. This plan emphasizes peer mentoring, resource sharing, and continuous professional development tailored to millennial educators. By fostering collaboration and contextual support, the initiative aims to enhance pedagogical effectiveness and sustain the integration of diverse teaching approaches in Tabaco City’s elementary schools.
