Management Model Emphasized:
Dr. Elijah Ezendus Model of Problem Analysis
Part I. Verification of subject of analysis
In this phase, the proponent makes a guide list for her to ask students, co-subject
teachers, parents, and the principal in the verification of nature of the subject to be analyzed
based on personal and communal feedbacks and observation:
A. The Interview guide list questions. The purpose of this guide list question is to establish
initial subject areas of concern either it can be timely, logically and purposively accounted for as
subject of analysis. It is done through assignment to students, informal listings of suggestions
during teachers meeting with the principal.
The conduct of the guide is procedural which means questions are ask in a step by step
one at a time manner.
Guide list:
1. Among the many concerns of our developing school, can you identify problems which are
directly related to our T.L.E. department?

Part II. Identification of problems related to subject

Part II, III and IV, brainstorming, lateral thinking, mind mapping and structured inquisition
involve using three of common tools in problem analysis, namely; the five why, critical incidence
analysis and force field analysis.
Toyodas Five Whys
1. Why does the school lack the instructional resources (textbook supply, laboratory tools,
laboratory materials and supply of library references)?
Answer: It lacks the monetary capacity
2. Why does the school lack the monetary capacity?
Answer: a) Majority of enrollees are below poverty line
b) Being a new school it is in its state of structuring in the side of
government budgeting; where land and other facilities are still needs to
be acquired
3. Why majority of the clientele does incapacitating and the government in context fails to
address these problems to act upon readily?
Answer: Being in its state of structuring, the school also is integrating K12
nationwide program which encourage the use of tested classroom
technology in the teaching of T.L.E. areas.
4. Why the state does encourages tested classroom technology in the teaching of T.L.E.
areas?
Answer: To address practically the lack of academic and skill laboratory
resources by reducing it to few technological strategic solution.
5. Why technological strategic solution?
Answer: To answer practically and scientifically these lack of resources into
one effective classroom instruction strategy.
Identified problem:
What classroom technological strategy is needed to suffice out of lack of
resources?

ACTIVITY 3B ORGANIZATIONAL PROFILE OF THE AGENCY

Activity Objectives:
Through this activity, the masterand is expected to present a concise introductory
information on the organizational setting of the Agency.
Agency / Organization Represented:
New Guinsaugon National High School
Present Role of the Masterand:
Academic Adviser / Teacher
Specific Areas of Concern:
Employee
Management Model Emphasized:
Style of Berkshire Hathaway Inc.

New Guinsaugon National High School (NGNHS) is government owned public

secondary school located in New Guinsaugon, Saint Bernard, Southern Leyte functioning under
the countrys leading Department of Education with main office in DepEd Complex, Meralco Ave.,
Pasig City, Metro Manila. DepEd oversees and manages a number of private, public, NGO-based
and sectarian schools including NGNHS. The school consequently being growing has still in need
of an average annual growth in book value through its stakeholders including school PTA and
student-based fund raising activities. For less than 10 years, while growing a steady 6 to 11
classroom still a school with no annexes NGNHS projects an enrolment from 260 plus last year to
463. This makes the school a larger school, with 213 more students than the average school and
268 more students than the average school in Saint Bernard. The school has more male students
(262) than female students (201) - for every one female student there are 3 male students. This is
similar to the average gender breakdown in Saint Bernard, which sees on average 1:3 male
students per female.
Being a secondary school, NGNHS teaches students in grades seventh through tenth in
Saint Bernard, Southern Leyte of Eastern Visayas (Region VIII). Though it has no noninstructional rooms, it is powered and supplied with water by a power grid. With 463 students,
class size is around 77 students in 6 main classrooms down to 42 students per activity quasi
group meetings among major subjects. Margarita D. Badeo is in charge of the school, acting as
the school's Principal. With a school ID registered at 192023 it approximates a partially urban
income of P 25 M or more but less than P 35 M. Only standard rooms are emphasized with
minimal rooms concentrated for Laboratory, Home Economics, Industrial / Workshop, Computer
and Special Education. Non-instructional rooms for Canteen, Clinic, Library and different Offices
needs a lot to be work-out
Under the lead of Dr. Margarita D. Badeo, 23 teachers of different focus of academic
specialization cater a K12 prepared and competent junior education in the secondary level while
anticipating competitiveness in the structural and foundation of its require amenities and facilities.
Its conducive location along the National highway fronted by a sandy beach of Magbagacay and
its upper hill stance contemplate a promising nest for your learners and modern teachers.

They are expensive to implement, offer a good return on education as a future investment
by achieving the school's goals to better enhance good academic performance paired with the
core of servitude and nationhood. To assure the problem that employees get the message that
they have a job to do and that they see the change as something integral to their daily activities,
the strategies for the success of functional structure in NGNHS are:

Positioning the functional structure as a basic element in the organization's formal

performance management system

Designing instructional and faculty programs to fully integrate outcomes into the core
functional structure

Enrichment education, seminars & training among all members in effective performance
planning and management practices such as how to handle specific academic and nonacademic demands, challenges and problems
