Installation of an Honesty Store at Tanauan City Integrated High School-A Project-Based Learning to Demonstrate City Henyo's values

Abstract

INTRODUCTION

An honesty store is a shop that has no surveillance camera or an employee managing it. This study was conducted to determine the values and reactions of Tanauan City Integrated HighSchool students towards the installation of an honesty store inside the campus. Furthermore, this aimed to develop intervention programs to increase the level of honesty of students.

METHODS

Simple random sampling was used to select 249 students using the Slovin's formula with a margin of error, e=0.05. The descriptive-quantitative research design was utilized.

RESULTS

The study found that students were satisfied with their own attitude towards honesty. They believe that an Honesty Store would serve them best in providing school supplies inside the school. However, the Honesty Store suffered a major setback with a reported deficit of Php 1,528.50 during its implementation.

DISCUSSIONS

Based on the computed Z-test value of 2.038 at a=0.05, it was found that there was a significant relationship between students' values and accumulated profit based on the weekly inventory of the honesty store. The researchers recommend conducting another study after the intervention programs are undertaken to determine the effectiveness of the said programs, whether the level of honesty among TCIHS students increased or not.
