The teacher, a vital element of the teaching-learning process, faces various work-related problems such as work adjustment. Knowing their adjustment challenges, job satisfaction and work performance are of significance to ensure higher work satisfaction and performance. This is the very purpose of the conduct of this quantitative research. This research employed descriptive and correlational research design and data were collected through a survey method having 52 Senior High School teacher-respondents from four Senior High School centers in the Municipality of Narra. The reliability of the 30-items survey questionnaire was analyzed and the Cronbach’s alpha (α=0.899) showed that it reached the acceptable reliability. The findings imply that recreation facilities are not an issue on teachers’ work adjustment, on the contrary, personally- and professionally-inclined challenges matter. Also, the level of job satisfaction among teachers is fair while their work performance is very satisfactory. Furthermore, the results revealed that the relationships between and among teachers’ work adjustment challenges, job satisfaction, and performance are weak and insignificant. Samples used in this study do not equally represent all the SHS teachers in the Schools Division of Palawan, thus, the use of larger or wider representative variables is essential to accurately measure the class of determinants.

Access to learning materials poses a greater challenge to the educational community since learning must continue even with the risks of covid-19 pandemic. The Philippines’ Department of Education (DepEd) described the Open Educational Resources (OER) as an innovative pathway to connect the disconnected schools with its prime role to support the requirements of the K-12 Curriculum. This paved the way for the researchers to conduct this study that explores the OER readiness level of the 71 secondary school teachers in the School Division of Palawan. Data were gathered through the administration of survey questionnaires via SMS, phone calls, and online platforms. Composite mean and Pearson correlation coefficient were utilized in data analysis. Results showed the teachers’ awareness level of open educational resources is approaching awareness. A moderate positive correlation between the respondents’ educational attainment and their OER level of awareness was also established. The study recommends the strengthening of the conduct of training on open educational resources in order for the teachers to become fully aware of its aspects and devising a training design or OER policy that will encourage teachers the full utilization of OER.
