Conclusion and

Recommendation

8/8/2019 Defend Final

40/45

:Conclusion from students A. The majority of the respondents stated that it is a common occurrence while some say

that it is both a hassle and a challenge. The minority on the other hand, stated that theydont care at all.

B. Based on the findings gathered from the students alone, it cannot be denied that the

practice of favoritism still exists in Naga Hope Christian School.

C. From the survey results, it showed that intelligent, hardworking and generally popular students are most likely to become favorites. While good looking, humorous andwealthy students are not preferred as much.

D. The results show that most of the student population believes that favoritism cannothelp a students academic performance in any way. In fact, it makes them overly

proud; easy go lucky, largely overconfident and ignorant. This is also worsened by thefact that they are given special treatment with grades. As they commonly get high

scores. Favoritism cannot produce a quality student besides they become worse in allaspects except for the tremendous increase in grades.

E. The researchers found out that half of all student respondents stated that it directlyaffects grades and the other half stated otherwise. It would seem that there is a largeduality in opinion.

:Conclusion from teachers

A . .Favoritism still exists and is practiced by some teachers. .It affects a student s academic performance negatively Degrading

.the assimilation of the education given

. Very few teachers actually have favorites in their respective.classes Meaning that a small percentage of the faculty practice

.favoritism itself. ,Students who are courteous hardworking and intelligent appeal most to

. ,teachers who desire favorites On the other hand the good looking and.popular students do not garner much attention and they are least preferred

This largely mirrors the result of the version for the student s traits in.regards to becoming potential favorites

8/8/2019 Defend Final

42/45

E . In regards to possible solutions that a teacher can do to help,students suffering from favoritism most of the teachers suggested

that students need to be more active within the class in order to.garner balanced attention They also need to be given constructive.advice and freedom of expression as well to foster independence

Choices least preferred include guidance counseling from outside.sources and consulting proper experts

. The most preferred solution would be to report the case to the

,school administration which scored the highest which means that the

administration is the best area to fall back to in addressing the.case

. ,According the results most of the faculty stated that they are

.not satisfied that favoritism is still practiced It has negative.drawbacks which border on cheating and dishonesty

. The most preferred solution would be the consult the accused

. ,directly without provocation While a bit overbearing it does go to show that teachers would be willing to get straight to the point

.with the matter

8/8/2019 Defend Final

:Recommendation for students Students must be aware of favoritism in the school and

what it can do for you. Dont be affected by your teachers favoritism.
