Editor’s Statement

Abstract

As the editor of this issue, I would like to thank all the contributors and referees whose patience and cooperation with the Education Quarterly’s (EQ) editorial board made the publication of this volume possible. We started with a very long list of contributions from different areas of education, and the search for outstanding works proved difficult. After what appeared to be a never-ending search for publishable articles, the editorial board has finally assembled a package of seven articles for this issue. Certainly, more articles will be published after our masked reviewers and the members of the EQ editorial board have concluded their evaluation of the submissions that are still being and will be considered for publication. All of the articles in this issue are either quantitative or qualitative (or both) studies conducted by Filipino educationists and researchers. Their academic researchlights were zeroed in on learning environment and styles, regular and assistive teaching, school management, and materials that may be used to sharpen problem-solving abilities. Their works were all carried out in response to the current, and possibly most significant, realities and problems encountered in various contexts of Philippine education.
