Abstract

This research project developed an innovative initiative titled “Online Self-Training Program for Empowering Teachers’ Learning to Enhance Students’ Collaborative Learning Skills.” Its main goal is to support schools within the target demographic by sharing valuable research findings to improve educational practices. The program consists of two components. The first includes seven self-training modules designed to enhance teachers’ learning experiences, equipping them with skills to improve their teaching methods. The second component focuses on helping teachers apply their knowledge in the classroom, enriching students’ learning experiences. Results from the first phase showed that 16 teachers achieved performance criteria 90/90, significantly increasing average posttest scores. In the second phase, 634 students demonstrated marked improvement in their collaborative learning skills, as indicated by higher post-intervention scores. These findings confirm the initiative’s effectiveness and reinforce its design, underscoring its potential to improve teacher and student development, paving the way for broader dissemination of its outcomes to benefit more schools.
