Academic Predictors of the Licensure Exam for Teache's Performance of RTU's Teacher Education Graduates

Abstract

One of the pressing concerns of the College of Education of the Rizal Technological University is the batting or passing percentage of its graduates in the Licensure Examination for Teachers (LET); thus, this research on determining the predictors of LET performance. Findings revealed that when the LET performance is correlated with the three components of the academic subjects, there exists a moderate correlation with general education and only a slight correlation between professional education and specialization. The set of predictors used showed a very weak relationship between student performance in the LET and their academic grades. Equally, a slight variation of LET performance could be accounted for through the combined linear effects of the predictor variables.
