Description Performance management has become one of the most essential tools in modern public administration, serving as a bridge between organizational goals and actual outcomes. In a world where government agencies are expected to deliver efficient, transparent, and inclusive services, the importance of effective performance management cannot be overstated. It ensures that every public servant, policy, and program contributes meaningfully to the overall vision of sustainable and equitable development. When properly implemented, performance management not only measures productivity; it cultivates accountability, motivates public employees, and aligns government actions with the broader framework of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Description This synthesis review examined common patterns on genetic differences of the small or isolated populations of animals in the Philippines. It reviewed ten (10) published articles from 2020 to 2025 focusing on genetic differences of these species including mosquitoes (Aedes aegypti), marine species (sea cucumbers, giant trevallies, white teatfish), terrestrial mammals (Visayan spotted deer, Eonycteris robusta), freshwater fish (Glossogobius aureus), and livestock (Philippine native pigs, chickens, and carabao). Using a thematic synthesis approach, the results showed the following common themes: 1) genetic diversity of isolated populations; 2) geographic isolation and population structure; 3) adaptive divergence and local selection; 4) human-mediated influence of genetic differentiation; and 5) conservation, management, and biodiversity implications. Thus, this review showed that genetic diversity was uneven, population structure was strong, adaptive divergence occurred even in separated habitats, and human activities strengthened genetic differentiation. These findings had important implications for conservation, resource management, and biodiversity sustainability in the Philippines.

Women spent their days washing clothes along the riverbanks while exchanging stories with their neighbors. Fishermen cast their nets or set their hook and line, confident that the river would provide enough fish to feed their families before the day ended. During the hottest afternoons, the river became everyone's refuge, its clear waters offering relief from the relentless summer heat.

Abstract This study determined the level of English Language Proficiency of Bachelor of Agricultural Technology (BAT) and Bachelor of Science in Fisheries (BSFi) graduates of Surigao del Norte State University - Del Carmen Campus, examined significant differences across selected profile variables, developed a training design to address identified gaps, and determined the level of acceptability of the developed training design. Using a quantitative-descriptive research design, data were collected from the selected BAT and BSFi graduates from academic years 2020-2025 through a researcher‑made English Proficiency Test covering grammar, vocabulary, punctuation, and comprehension, and an expert‑validated evaluation tool. Statistical analyses included descriptive statistics, t‑tests, ANOVA, and Kruskal‑Wallis tests. The training design was developed using the ADDIE model and evaluated by (National Educators Academy of the Philippines) NEAP‑accredited experts. Findings revealed that respondents demonstrated an Approaching Proficiency level in grammar, vocabulary, and punctuation, and a Proficient level in comprehension. Differences were generally not significant across profile variables, except for sex in grammar and punctuation. The training design was rated Highly Acceptable across all dimensions. The findings highlight the need for targeted English Language Proficiency training, particularly in grammar and punctuation, and support the implementation of the developed training design as an effective intervention. Keywords English language proficiency, quantitative-descriptive research, training design, level of acceptability, agriculture and fisheries education, grammar and punctuation
