Contemporary Issues in Philippine Higher Education 3


This monograph further demonstrates the diversity of topics in higher education. The two papers are both evaluative in nature but focus on completely different topics. Allen Espinosa, PhD and Donnadette SG. Belza discusses preservice teacher education, while Agnes Quilingquiling writes about education service delivery. Complementing these national-focused articles are three papers that show how higher education policies operate and how they can be studied at various levels. Kai Cardoz explores the trend of microcredentials to complement or provide an alternative to current modalities of higher education. Iva Melissa Magsalin, meanwhile, studies an integral, but relatively understudied, component of higher education: extra-curricular organizations. Finally, Lorenzo Ereñeta, illustrates how one can begin studying and approaching a course—in this case, Understanding the Self—with policy recommendations in mind. As the papers by Quilingquiling, Cardoz, Magsalin, and Ereñeta have the ongoing pandemic as their context, they build upon our efforts to study higher education in the new and next normal.
