Edralin The Contributors 30 0 Guidelines for Contributors 30 5 From the Editor This volume is a collection of research articles focusing on the San Beda University priority Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and its Academic Year 2020-2021 theme: “Excellence in Educational Mission.” The 12 featured articles analyzed from various experiences and perspectives how the Bedan community, as well as other students and faculty from other schools journeyed during the pandemic which affected their personal, work, academic, social, and spiritual life as well as their effort in advancing the pursuit of the SDGs. The first paper by Divina M. Edralin and Ronald M. Pastrana on “Developing an Instrument to Assess Organizational Readiness for a Sustainable E-Learning in the New Normal” claimed the E-learning is aptly a practical response to continuous learning given the surge in the use of information technology, and economic disruptions impinging on the schools. The need to shift to e-learning has been exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. In this regard, the researchers sought to develop an organizational assessment instrument to internally ascertain the level of readiness of the school for sustainable e- learning in the new normal. This assessment instrument was primarily developed for the use of the Mendiola Consortium member schools in their pursuit to conduct e- learning. The researchers asserted that many survey instruments had been made to assess organizational readiness as a construct for e- learning. However, it revealed that these instruments have varying limitations in validity and reliability to establish the domains of organizational readiness for e-learning. The study was anchored on the organizational readiness model developed by Schreurs and Al-Huneidi (2012) and Mercado (2002). From the review of related literature, the researchers generated seven basic dimensions of their model, namely: teacher, student, curriculum, technology, administrative support, financial support, and learning environment. The researchers also used a mixed method of qualitative and quantitative approach to come up with a validated instrument. The final instrument yielded 45 items to be rated on a five-point Likert scale. For its content validity, the Item- Content Validity Index ranged from 0.91 to 0.96, while the Scale- Content Validity Index was 0.94. It has a Cronbach alpha of .975 for its reliability. The second paper by Ma. Emperatriz C. Gabatbat and Noel D. Santander on “The Value of Values Education in the Virtual Classroom” investigated the value or importance of values education in online instruction during this time of the pandemic, based on Spencer’s model. The researchers had used narrative descriptive method and strategy in analyzing the data that were collected through the digital data approach from several educators of higher and other educational institutions. Primarily, this research presented the various practices observed before, during, and after online learning, to ensure value-laden education aside from identifying the specific values needed to be promoted and intensified during this pandemic by reason of necessity and urgency like sensitivity, self-care, courage, perseverance, discipline, respect, accountability, faith, justice, peace, honesty, humility, and love. This research yielded to the importance and impact of values education to educational excellence while still in pandemic which are classified as personal character development, social and world development, and spiritual development on the account of the good nature of the value- based education, availability of much needed structures, quality of delivery, and dynamic support system. The article on “A Proposed Natural Science E-Instructional Systems Design (E-ISD) for the Mendiola Consortium” by Maria Eliza P. Cruz and Arvin P. Dizon intended to support flexible learning without compromising authenticity and shared identity in the context of natural science virtual teaching and learning. The researchers reviewed and consequently, proposed a recalibration of the instructional systems design (ISD) as used by Natural Science teachers and professors of the Mendiola Consortium from October 2020 through March 2021. The proposed e-ISD, arising from flexibility, authenticity, and result- orientedness as eligibility criteria, enforces the importance of content and context feedback on the instructional process. Applying Argyris' perspective (1976) on feedback loops and theories of action, it could be said that seeking the perspectives of the subject matter experts themselves, the Natural Science teachers, helped the researchers create a new meaning for Science Instruction— a meaning that is flexible and adaptable alongside the changing world. This article by Zernan L. De Ramos and Ma. Angela RJ’ Balance on the “Community Extension and Citizenship Education of San Beda University Towards SDGs” examined the community extension and citizenship education of San Beda University in its Community Engagement Center (CEC) and National Service Training Program (NSTP). It employed a framework on the Priority Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of SBU and selected key features and strategies of Education for Sustainable Development (ESD). After a critical assessment of the procedures, teaching methods, documents, and interviews, the results of the study identified the practices and programs including specific teaching activities. The results
