Abstract

This study aimed to assess the research productivity of public secondary school teachers in the Schools Division of Calbayog City, Philippines. The research design used was descriptive-assessment, which utilized a questionnaire to gather data on the teachers' profile and research productivity status. Statistical tools were applied to analyze and interpret the data. The study revealed that the public secondary school teachers in the Schools Division of Calbayog City were mostly middle-aged, female, married, and had a master's degree. They had been teaching for less than ten years, mostly handling MAKABAYAN subjects, attended only 4 to 5 days of training, and had a mean research involvement of 0.54 year. The research productivity of the respondents was found to be low, indicating minimal involvement in research activities. The study also found that research productivity was dependent on the teachers' sex, length of teaching experience, and number of relevant training attended. To improve research competence and productivity, the study suggested that teachers should undergo enhancement training in research.
