Abstract
This study employed a quantitative descriptive-correlational research design to explore the relationships between various variables in the context of education in the New Bataan District of Davao de Oro, Philippines. The research locale included seven public schools in the district: Camanlangan Elementary School, Camanlangan National High School, La Purisima Elementary School, Magangit Integrated School, Major Angel V. Fajardo National High School, Panag Elementary School, and Tandawan Integrated School. The respondents of the study were 105 teachers from the aforementioned schools, selected through universal sampling to represent the entire population. The study aimed to describe the status of knowledge regarding specific variables and examine the degrees of relationship among those variables using a survey questionnaire. The research findings revealed a significant positive relationship between the teachers' attitudes and their sense of self-efficacy. This suggests that teachers with more positive attitudes tend to have a stronger sense of self-efficacy in their teaching abilities and practices. The research design allowed for the careful collection, analysis, and interpretation of mostly quantitative data to achieve the study's objectives of describing the phenomena at hand and establishing the relationships between the variables in question. The insights gained from this study will provide valuable information about the educational landscape of the New Bataan District and contribute to the understanding of the factors influencing educational outcomes in the region.
