Abstract:
This paper aims to determine SHS students’ feedback on the work
immersion partner agencies. The study employed descriptive research
design. The study was conducted in the Magsaysay National High School,
Magsaysay, Occidental Mindoro from November 2019 to January 2020. The
students were selected using simple random sampling from the list of work
immersion students in SY 2019-2020.
Result shows that the students have a “very satisfactory” feedback on the
work immersion partner-agency categorized into work immersion facilities
& venue, work immersion design and processes, and work immersion actual
experience. They have the “mastery of the competency” acquired in the
partner-agency and encountered slightly serious problems with regards to
work immersion experience.
Based on the results and conclusions, the researcher recommends that the
school should provide competency standards for each major as part of the
performance appraisal report to evaluate the performance of the students. A
monitoring of work immersion students who are being employed after SHS
should be conducted. This study also calls for future investigation of the
same topic considering the industry mapping or identifying different
industry partners that may be part of the learning and exposure of the
student-trainees to deploy the students to their respective field of
specialization. Further, a correlation study may be conducted using the
profile variables of the students.
