Abstract

INTRODUCTION

At present, teachers are required to observe the 2C-2I-1R pedagogy in enhancing and nurturing 21st-century learners. The researcher focused on the collaborative strategy of teaching to prepare the learners to interact, cooperate, and produce reliable outputs. The collaborative strategy involves learners' learning through joint efforts for making a better output. The research was conducted to know what best strategy suits the learners. It is essential, most especially for teachers, to determine the kind of strategy needed for a specific group of learners.

METHODS

A descriptive method was used by the researcher in this study. It is a purposive process of gathering, analyzing, classifying, and tabulating data about prevailing conditions, practices, beliefs, processes, trends, and cause-effect relationship and then making an adequate and accurate interpretation about such data with or without the aid of statistical methods. Eight (8) teachers of Filipino were chosen as the respondents for this study.

RESULTS

Based on the conducted research, the data gathered were presented and interpreted. Online collaborative strategy and some suggested interventions such as the use of PowerPoint presentation, movie maker, and video in line with some social media applications were utilized. On the scale, the frequently used strategy is the Integrated Process Approach. It involves thinking as a group for the entire project, emphasizing connection which eventually led to improving communication among students. On the other hand, Online Collaborative Strategy garnered the least preferred strategy involving students' technological advancement and using one's knowledge of technology. Some difficulties encountered by teachers include a large number of enrollees, leading to non-focus of teacher-learner environment. Another is the lack of existence of a learning resource center. As such, an action plan was conducted to address the problem regarding the teaching strategies used in teaching Filipino.

DISCUSSIONS
