Abstract

This study delves into enhancing the teaching performance of the faculty within the Hospitality and Tourism Management department at Bicol Merchant Marine College, Inc., forming the basis for a comprehensive Professional Development Plan. The research addresses questions related to faculty demographics, teaching effectiveness as evaluated by administrators, teachers, and students, and the identification of encountered challenges. Data were collected through a questionnaire checklist designed by the researcher in collaboration with advisors and thesis committee members.
Using a descriptive method, the study analyzes faculty performance perceptions among students, focusing on communication skills, subject mastery, classroom management, industrial expertise, and assessment of learning outcomes. Statistical measures such as frequency count, percentage, ranking, and weighted mean were employed for data analysis.
The study reveals a pronounced gender disparity, age distribution, diverse educational attainments, and program affiliations. Notably, the faculty excels in communication skills, subject mastery, classroom management, industrial expertise, and assessment of learning outcomes. Challenges encompass communication skills, classroom management issues, and gaps in industrial expertise.
The proposed professional development plan recommends strategies for recruitment, inclusive teaching practices, mentorship, and research support. Tailored workshops, collaborative training, continuous monitoring, and long-term engagement initiatives are also suggested to address identified challenges. These recommendations aim to elevate teaching performance and foster a conducive learning environment within the Hospitality and Tourism Management department.
