This descriptive research investigates the impact of extension programs from a college of teacher education on public elementary school teachers. Three programs, literacy (n=75), Catch Me and Teach Me strategy literacy program (n=64), and campus journalism (n=48), were evaluated. Participants reported profound positive impact from these programs, considering them effective or very effective. The literacy program significantly improved reading and writing skills, fostered a love for learning, and benefitted the community. However, challenges like outdated materials and overemphasis on rote memorization need addressing. The Catch Me and Teach Me strategy literacy program excelled in practical teaching strategies and hands-on learning but required additional time and support, emphasizing the need for a more personalized approach. The campus journalism program was lauded for its informativeness but faced venue, food quality, time management issues, and a desire for more diverse topics. These findings stress the importance of customized professional development, long-term impact assessment, cultural sensitivity, and community involvement. Effective, engaging training methods, feedback, and efficient resource allocation are vital for program improvement. The research aims to enhance extension services’ quality for the community's benefit, providing valuable guidance to improve these programs and cater to participants' diverse needs.

This study determined the relationship between community motivation, engagement, and commitment in the extension services of Cavite State University-Tanza Campus among Barangay Bagtas residents in Tanza, Cavite. A descriptive-correlational design was employed, using purposive, quota, and convenience sampling techniques to select 100 participants who had engaged in extension services. The study gathered demographic data, including age, sex, occupation, civil status, monthly income, educational attainment, and type and number of extension services attended. It examined intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, physical, cognitive, and emotional engagement, and affective, continuance, and normative commitment. Statistical tools such as Pearson r, weighted means, and frequency and percentage distributions were used to analyze the data. The findings indicated that intrinsic motivation, particularly personal fulfillment (WM = 3.97), and extrinsic motivation, such as career advancement (WM = 3.77), were significant factors in community participation. Participants demonstrated high levels of engagement, with physical engagement (WM = 3.86), cognitive engagement (WM = 3.85), and emotional engagement (WM = 3.80) being the most prominent. Commitment was driven by affective (WM = 3.81), continuance (WM = 3.81), and normative (WM = 3.69) factors, showing strong emotional attachment, moral obligation, and perceived benefits. Pearson r analysis revealed significant relationships between motivation, engagement, and commitment (p < 0.05). Based on these results, the study recommended enhancing intrinsic and extrinsic motivation through value-driven programs, focusing on hands-on activities and reflective discussions to improve engagement, and fostering a strong sense of community and moral duty to increase commitment. Tailored programs focused on skills development and career readiness were also recommended to address community needs effectively.

This study presented an approach to evaluating a higher education institution's teachers' training extension program (HEI) using the Kirkpatrick evaluation model. The adapted model provided an excellent framework for identifying the strengths and weaknesses of the training process. Findings revealed that the extension program was effective at the model's reaction level (Level 1), as evidenced by a high level of satisfaction. The Level 2 (learning criteria) and Level 3 (behavior) of the model were not successfully documented due to limitations of monitoring data of the extension program. However, the final results (Level 4) were examined using the Qualitative Impact Protocol (QUIP). According to the QUIP findings, the participation of teachers in various training and seminars on science and ICT topics was widely cited as a positive driver of change across the three domains of the training program. Most teachers made positive implicit statements that corresponded to the expected changes that the extension program aims to achieve, but they made no explicit reference to the project. The analysis provided the extension practitioners with a holistic understanding of the preparation, design, and implementation of similar future teachers' training extension programs in HEIs, focusing on the professional development of science teachers.
